Reviewers describe careful haircuts, blow-drys, highlights, root colour and treatments, including curly-hair styling and no-bleach highlights.
Several customers say their manicure and pedicure work was careful and gentle, including for sensitive hands and natural nails.
One customer specifically valued the salon’s formaldehyde-free keratin products and reported strong keratin results.
Multiple reviews mention welcoming, polite staff and attentive care from arrival through completion.
Customers mention budget-friendly regular prices and affordable promotional deals, including nail and hair packages.
The salon suits nearby customers, with one reviewer choosing it because it was close to home and another because it was close to work.
Confirm booking. Confirm your appointment and opening time directly, especially for voucher or online bookings; one visitor arrived at 10am on Saturday to a closed salon.
Check products. For a named facial or hair treatment, confirm the exact products and steps beforehand; one facial customer said alternatives were used without notice.
Allow parking. Build in extra time to park in Jumeirah Lake Towers; a reviewer said finding a space wasted time before a highlights appointment.
Discuss gel type. Before nail extensions, confirm whether you are getting hard gel or acrylic and ask about removal, as one customer said the requested type was misunderstood.
Flag sensitivity. Tell the waxing technician clearly that your skin is sensitive and request a gentle technique; one customer reported bruising despite doing so.

Gel manicures are a recurring choice, with some customers praising the finish while others report peeling or breakage soon after the appointment.
One reviewer said a protein treatment left their hair looking dramatically better and planned to return.
This 60-minute facial was specifically booked by one customer, who later disputed the products and treatment steps used.
A wash, cut and blow-dry appointment was praised for efficient service and careful attention to the requested shape, length and style.
Some reviewers said gel or hard-gel nails peeled, detached or broke within days, with one reporting nail damage after repeated removals.
Voucher and online bookings have caused delays, service misunderstandings and, in one case, a customer arriving to find the salon closed.
One customer reported a burning bruise above the knee after asking repeatedly for a gentler waxing technique.
A negative review raised concerns about an ungloved pedicure, tool cleanliness and rushed work, including poorly filed heels and badly cut nails.
Reviews describe the salon as small and less polished than high-end nail salons, with ageing pedicure chairs mentioned by one visitor.
The Bottom Line
Celebrity Makeup Studio is a beauty salon in Jumeirah Lake Towers covering the everyday salon basics: haircuts and blow-drys, highlights and root colour, hair treatments, gel manicures and pedicures, waxing, threading and facials. The strongest pattern in the reviews is hair work, with customers praising careful cuts, curly-hair advice, protein treatments and colour results. Nail services also receive plenty of praise for neat, gentle work.
There is a useful value angle here. Customers mention affordable promotions and budget-friendly regular prices, while one review highlights formaldehyde-free keratin products. The salon is described as comfortable but small rather than luxurious, and parking in JLT can take patience.
The experience is not completely consistent. Several customers reported gel peeling or hard-gel extensions breaking within days, while others were very happy with their nails. Voucher and online bookings have also led to delays, confusion over included services and, in one case, an appointment-time closure.
A waxing review described bruising after the customer explained that her skin was sensitive, and another raised concerns about an ungloved pedicure. Confirm your booking, treatment products and nail type before starting, and allow extra time for parking.
