The Good Stuff
Colour Care
Customers report vibrant colour and hair that remained healthy, soft and well-preserved after complex colour work.
Service Recovery
After an unhappy nail result, the salon redid the work to match the customer’s request rather than letting them leave disappointed.
Quick Manicure
One reviewer says their gel manicure was completed in about an hour, versus the 1.5–2 hours they usually experienced elsewhere.
Flexible Booking
A last-minute customer was fitted in for a complex colour transformation despite the spontaneous request.
Private Nail Area
The salon has a private area for manicure and pedicure appointments, a useful detail for customers wanting a quieter setup.
Tips for a Better Visit
Discuss Methods. If extensions are new to you, ask the team to explain the methods and why a technique such as Ice is suitable for your hair.
Confirm Pricing. Before starting, confirm the price for every service and any promotion; one customer reported different quotes for the same nail service.
Agree Length. For face frames or layers, agree the intended length clearly and ask for a gradual cut, especially if you are worried about going too short.
Consider Parking. If you are driving to the Dubai Marina salon, reviews specifically mention the location and parking positively.
Ask About Tests. For a major colour change, ask whether a hair test is appropriate; one customer’s red-to-brown colour change began with a safety check.

The Bottom Line
Paulista Beauty Salon in Dubai Marina is most compelling for hair extensions and colour work. Customers describe Ice extensions that feel light and natural, complex colour transformations that preserve softness, and colour that stayed vibrant for more than a month. The salon also handles haircuts, blow-dries and treatments including K18 and Tokio Inkarami, plus gel manicures and pedicures.
Extensions are a clear speciality in the reviews. One customer paid 4,400 AED for extensions, application, cut, styling and a conditioning spray, with a 20% discount bringing the total to 4,000 AED. Another praised the salon for removing 190 poorly installed capsules from elsewhere and fitting the customer in within 30 minutes.
Ask questions about the method, hair selection and aftercare before committing. The atmosphere is repeatedly described as warm, relaxed and welcoming, with a private manicure-and-pedicure area and reviewers also mentioning convenient parking. Nail work receives strong praise, including a gel manicure completed in about an hour and precise French manicures.
There are some important cautions. One customer reported inconsistent nail pricing and no improvement from a Tokio treatment, while another described a severely uneven face-frame haircut. A separate extension review reported glue, painful removal and substantial hair loss, so confirm the installation and removal process carefully.
