The Good Stuff
HydraFacials
The Dermalogica HydraFacial is described as deeply cleansing and hydrating, with one customer reporting improved skin over time.
Nail detail
Reviews describe neat nail art, well-shaped acrylics and gelish manicures that can last for weeks.
Personal advice
Staff are often praised for listening to hair concerns and suggesting treatments rather than deciding blindly.
Hygiene

Flexible packages

Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm colour. For colour appointments, repeat the target shade and specifically confirm whether it has red undertones before processing.
Check pricing. Ask for the total before the service begins and review the bill at payment, since one customer reported an incorrect charge.
Ask packages. Ask whether a package can be tailored to your needs; customers report customised packages and deals rather than only fixed options.
Plan parking. Driving is practical according to one review, which mentions ample parking and easy access in Oud Metha.

The Bottom Line
The Artist Beauty Lounge in Oud Metha is a salon people return to for hair repair and styling, facials and nail appointments. The clearest strengths in the reviews are the organic protein treatment, Dermalogica HydraFacial, gelish or acrylic nails and hair Botox. Customers describe protein treatments as leaving hair smoother and healthier, while the HydraFacial is said to leave skin deeply cleansed, hydrated and glowing.
The service style is generally attentive rather than rushed. Reviewers mention staff listening to their concerns, offering maintenance advice and tailoring packages to their needs. Cleanliness comes up repeatedly, including hygienic nail work and careful sanitising.
One customer also reported ample parking and easy access, useful if you are driving to Oud Metha. There are a few reasons to be specific when booking. Colour results have been inconsistent in some reviews: one customer asked to avoid red but left with a strong red tone, while another said repeated applications damaged their hair.
A separate review mentions an incorrect charge, and another reports incomplete acrylic removal before gelish application. Confirm the shade, treatment steps and final price upfront, especially for colour or corrective work. A haircut price of 80–99 was reported in one review, but no currency was stated, so treat it only as an older customer-reported reference rather than a current price list.
