The Good Stuff
Colour mixing
The salon accommodated a hard-to-match gel colour by mixing and layering different polishes.
Hair layers
A returning customer says the salon achieved her layers from a reference photo, making it useful to bring one along.
Sensitive waxing
One reviewer with extremely sensitive skin reported no post-wax flare-up after facial and body waxing.
Calm setting
Reviews describe the salon as small, clean and welcoming, with a relaxing atmosphere that suits longer beauty appointments.
Affordable value
Several customers describe the services as affordable or not overpriced compared with other Al Barsha salons.
Tips for a Better Visit
Bring references. For a haircut, bring a reference photo; one customer said the salon used it successfully for layers.
Confirm design. Before starting a mani-pedi, confirm the design, gel finish and completion plan, given one unfinished 200 AED visit.
Mention sensitivity. If your skin reacts easily, tell the technician before waxing; one sensitive-skin customer specifically reported no flare-up.
Request colour. If you cannot find the exact gel shade, ask whether colours can be mixed or layered to create it.
Check comfort. During nail work, speak up about discomfort and ask for a check before finishing; careful pain checks are a recurring positive detail.

The Bottom Line
Princess House is a ladies beauty salon in Al Barsha with a strong cluster of reviews around nails and hair. You can book gelish manicures and pedicures, acrylic or soft-gel extensions with nail art, haircuts, colour and blow-drys, plus facials, waxing and massage. The salon is repeatedly described as small, clean, welcoming and relaxing, which helps if you want a beauty appointment that feels unhurried rather than purely functional.
Nails are the clearest strength in the recent feedback. Customers mention neat gelish work, accurate shape and length, careful cuticles and technicians checking that there is no pain. One particularly useful example is a custom colour made by mixing and layering polishes when the requested shade was unavailable.
Hair reviews are positive too, including layers matched to a reference and colour with highlights, although one customer reported that a haircut remained uneven. There are some important signs of inconsistency. A 2024 complaint described spending two hours on a mani-pedi that was left unfinished, with lumpy gel, no design and bare toes, followed by a 200 AED charge.
Another customer felt she had to explain the service herself, while an older massage review mentioned hair and particles on towels. Confirm the requested finish before treatment and raise any concerns during the appointment.
