Coastal living is kind to a shaved head in some ways and hard on it in others, because salt air dries skin while the light off the water doubles your sun exposure. A head shave in Al Rashidiya 2 works best when the barber finishes with proper aftercare. Salonist brings a network of more than 12,000 salons, spas and barbershops across 60 plus countries into one place, listing the nearest chairs first.
Al Rashidiya 2 sits in the established part of Ajman near the water, a mixed area of apartment buildings, offices and long-standing local businesses. No barbershop within the district has claimed a marketplace listing yet, so Salonist opens up the closest available chairs and the wider set of barbers across the emirate. More shops sign up all the time, so the nearby list continues to fill out.
The shave follows a dependable order. Clippers with no guard remove the length in around five minutes, hot towels then soften the scalp for three or four minutes, and pre-shave oil is massaged in so the blade can glide. Warm lather goes on, the first razor pass follows the direction of growth, and a slower second pass against the grain is reserved for the crown and the nape. A gentle exfoliation lifts any hairs that have begun to turn back on themselves.
The aftercare is what makes a coastal shave comfortable. Cool water is followed by an alcohol-free balm and a moisturiser massaged in for a couple of minutes, and you should repeat something similar at home each evening. Rinse the scalp after time near the water, exfoliate lightly twice a week, and apply a high factor sunscreen every morning without fail. Expect to pay AED 20 to AED 50 in and around Al Rashidiya 2, with a beard trim usually available at a small saving alongside. The shave itself is much the same at a value chair and a premium one; the higher price buys longer towels, richer balm and a slower pace. Rebook every three to seven days for smoothness, or leave it a fortnight if a close buzz suits your week.
