1847
Men: if you’re lucky enough to be able to grow a good-looking beard, we highly recommend you do so while in Dubai. Locals will approve and be ever-so-slightly more accepting of you. However, many expats prefer to keep a hairless visage; the dandies among them indulge in an old-fashioned straight-razor shave – complete with hot towels beforehand – at the clubby men-only ‘grooming salon’ 1847. Ask about packages, including mani-pedis and massages. Good haircuts, too. There’s another branch at the Grosvenor House hotel in Dubai Marina.

Jet Set
The ladies-only salon at Grosvenor House is vaguely reminiscent of the beauty parlour in the 1939 film The Women – if only one could speak Arabic to keep up on the gossip. Great for a wash-and-set and mani-pedi before a big night out.
