The Good Stuff
Keratin
Keratin treatments are a strong recurring choice, with one customer travelling from Abu Dhabi for repeat appointments.
Blow-drys
Reviews describe blow-drys as silky, bouncy and fresh-looking, including after a layered haircut.
Cleanliness
The salon is described as clean and neat, even by a reviewer who felt it was not especially posh.
Gentle waxing
One reviewer who usually experienced rashes after waxing reported no rash or skin breakdown after treatment here.
Facials
Facials are repeatedly described as relaxing and professional, with one customer calling the treatment worthwhile.
Nail care
A reviewer praised the nail extension and art, while another described a pedicure as clean, neat and patiently done.
Early occasions
The team has accommodated customers needing to get ready for an occasion early in the morning.
Tips for a Better Visit
Share preferences. For a haircut, explain your preferences clearly and ask for a step-by-step consultation, as one reviewer received.
Allow time. Leave a generous time buffer for mani-pedis: one review says the appointment took two hours.
Confirm fees. Before a pedicure, confirm whether foot scrubbing is included; one customer reported a separate 20 dhs charge.
Early booking. If you are preparing for an occasion, ask about an early-morning appointment; a reviewer said the salon helped them get ready early.
Set expectations. Expect a functional rather than especially posh salon, though one reviewer still found it clean and neat.

The Bottom Line
Mom n me is a ladies beauty salon in Al Karama with a particularly strong review trail for haircuts, keratin treatments and blow-drys. You can come in for a layered cut, ask for input throughout the haircut, and add a blow-dry that reviewers describe as silky, bouncy and fresh-looking. Keratin is another established draw, with one customer saying she and her daughter travel from Abu Dhabi for it.
The salon also covers facial treatments, waxing, nail extensions, manicures and pedicures. Facials are often described as relaxing, while one reviewer praised a pedicure for being clean, neat and patiently done. Waxing was a notable success for a customer who usually developed rashes but reported no rash or skin breakdown after treatment here.
The atmosphere sounds welcoming and practical rather than luxurious: one review calls it clean and neat but not especially posh. Staff have also accommodated customers preparing for an occasion early in the morning, so it is worth asking about timing if you have a fixed event. Take extra care with nail appointments.
One sharply negative review reported a two-hour mani-pedi, a bleeding fingernail and a separate 20 dhs charge for brief foot scrubbing. Confirm what is included and leave plenty of time.
