Confirm Details. Repeat your haircut and beard-trim requests before starting; one customer said the requested beard trim was missed.
Check Finish. Inspect all sections of your haircut before leaving, as one reviewer noticed uneven areas after the service.
Confirm Booking. For a pedicure, confirm the appointment and provider availability on the day; an 11am booking was forgotten.
Ask Inclusions. Clarify what the pedicure includes before paying, especially foot soak, scrub and massage.

The Bottom Line
Selfie Gents Salon & Spa in Discovery Gardens covers everyday grooming as well as spa treatments. You can book a haircut, beard trim, facial, full-body massage or Moroccan bath. The clearest specialist strength in the reviews is curly hair: one customer said the stylist understood how to cut and style curls and offered maintenance tips.
Fades and traditional haircuts also receive strong praise, with several long-term customers returning for years. The spa side has some appealing feedback. A full-body massage and facial were described as very good, while a Moroccan bath left one reviewer feeling refreshed after arriving sore.
Older reviews also mention clean tools and a hygienic, comfortable salon, although one later review reported a dirty shop and unpleasant-smelling shaving tools. That contrast makes a quick look at the workstation worthwhile. Service quality is not completely consistent.
Reviews describe a badly shortened haircut, a missed beard-trim request and uneven sections that needed checking. Pedicure bookings need extra care: one 11am appointment was forgotten, and another customer expected soaking, scrub and massage but received nail trimming and cleaning only. Confirm the exact service, inclusions and appointment timing before you sit down.
Older customer reports put a haircut at 55 aed, or 35 AED depending on the cut, but treat those as historical references rather than a current price list.
