How do you choose a beauty salon in Tbilisi and Batumi?
What services are offered and what to look for.
Short answer
Beauty salons in Tbilisi and Batumi offer cuts and colouring, manicures and pedicures, brows and lashes, make-up and cosmetology. When choosing, check reviews on maps and social media, photos of the artists' work, cleanliness and instrument sterilisation. Salons like SANLE, Dessange and LAKmousse take online bookings, and SANLE and LAKmousse have Russian versions of their websites.
Why
- Before your first visit, check which services the salon offers: SANLE, for example, covers nails, hair, barber, brows, lashes and make-up.
- Book with a specific artist: it is easier to get a result you like.
- Injections and other medical procedures should be done by a doctor, not a salon artist: independent medical practice in Georgia requires a state certificate.
Details
Before your first visit, ask for prices and whether care and styling are included. Many salons work by appointment: SANLE, for example, is open daily from 10:00 to 21:00 by appointment only.
Tip
Choose a salon by map and social media reviews and book with a specific artist.
What may differ
Prices and quality depend on the salon and artist.
Common misconception
Botox and fillers can be done at an ordinary beauty salon.
What actually happens
Injections should be done by a doctor: independent medical practice in Georgia requires a state certificate. So choose a doctor at a clinic for such procedures, not a salon technician.
