The Good Stuff
Long wear
One customer said their nail extensions stayed intact for more than a month, while another reported gel polish still perfect after three weeks.
Light lashes
A review specifically praised lashes that felt light and matched the client’s needs without lengthy explanation.
Hair treatments
Customers mention successful keratin treatments, toner, trims, colour and blow-dries, including hair left soft and smooth after keratin.
Calm setting
The studio is repeatedly described as cozy, modern, clean and relaxing rather than purely functional.
Tips for a Better Visit
Discuss removal. If you have normal polish or sensitive natural nails, ask for acetone removal before the appointment so the removal method is clear.
Check dust control. If you are allergy-prone, ask where dust extraction is available; one review says it was only at the manicure station.
Bring inspiration. For extensions or nail art, bring your reference image and confirm the design during the consultation; customers say complex inspiration can be recreated.
Plan arrival. Allow extra travel time and contact the salon if delayed, as one customer’s late arrival became a difficult front-desk experience.

Late arrival

The Bottom Line
XTEND Beauty Studio is a by-booking salon in Al Barsha South with a strong focus on nails, lashes and hair treatments. Reviews are especially useful for anyone considering nail extensions, Russian manicure, Gel X tips, detailed nail art or a gel pedicure. Customers describe designs ranging from Halloween extensions to 3D nails, and several say their sets lasted weeks or more than a month.
The work is not limited to nails. Reviewers mention light, personalised lash extensions, keratin treatments that left hair soft and smooth, plus colour, toner and blow-dry services. The studio itself comes up as modern, clean, cozy and calming, so it sounds suited to a more relaxed appointment rather than a quick walk-in visit.
Booking is required, and the stated hours are 11AM–10PM. There are two practical cautions. One customer said an e-file used to remove normal polish left nail beds thin, weak and raw, so discuss removal methods clearly if you care about natural nail health.
The same review mentioned filing dust reaching the face, lashes and hair and asked for more dust vacuums. Another long-term client reported a very poor front-desk response after arriving late, so allow extra travel time and clarify the lateness policy before setting out.
