The Good Stuff
Haircut detail
A customer with curly hair reported an excellent cut, noting that this hair type requires a real professional.
Easy location
The shop is on Riva Beach Club’s ground floor, making it convenient during a beach-club visit or holiday.
Family friendly
Several reviews mention successful haircuts for children, including one visit covering both a parent and child.
Flexible service
One customer appreciated being able to request changes during the haircut rather than having to accept the first result.
Smooth shave
A review specifically praised the shave alongside the haircut, which is useful if you want both services in one visit.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm length. State the exact haircut length clearly and confirm it before cutting, since one visitor received a much shorter cut than requested.
Check inclusions. If you are using a deal, confirm whether washing, shampoo and styling are included before the service starts.
Use parking. For appointments at the club, ask about the free parking mentioned for Shoreline 7&8.
Try kids’ cuts. The reviews include successful cuts for both children and parents, so the shop can be considered for a family visit.
Ask changes. If the shape is not quite right during the cut, ask for adjustments; one customer said changes were welcomed mid-service.

The Bottom Line
Kalm Grooming is a men’s barbershop in Palm Jumeirah, set on the ground floor of Riva Beach Club. Customers come for standard haircuts, beard trims and shaves, and one review specifically praises the result on curly hair. The setting is repeatedly described as clean and hygienic, which matters for close work such as fades and razor shaves.
The Riva location is a practical advantage if you are already at the beach club or staying nearby. One visitor had a haircut and beard trim while on holiday and liked not having to spend extra time travelling; another review mentions free parking around Shoreline 7&8. Families also feature in the feedback, with several customers reporting good haircuts for children.
There is useful evidence of attentive service: a customer said the requested haircut was followed exactly, while another was happy to make changes during the cut. Reviews also mention a high fade with beard clean-up, a shave, facial, wax and threading. Do be precise about length before the clippers start.
One visitor received a cut much shorter than requested, and a separate Cobone review reported rushed service plus an unsatisfactory wash and shampoo. Experiences are not entirely consistent, so confirm the details of any deal and the finish you want.
