Holland Village is dotted with great salons, but The Hair Lounge stands out for offering not only super chic haircuts and colour (such as blonde balayage) but top-notch service that turns every visit into a treat. In fact, some of us here at EL have been going to this Holland Village salon for years!
An inviting homegrown Holland Village salon
Founded in 2017 by hairstylists Jerome and Hanks, The Hair Lounge started as a small local business and built its loyal following of expats and locals organically. This sun-drenched salon featuring modern grey interiors is surrounded by greenery that peeks through its massive windows, adding to the relaxing vibe. Jerome tells us that fostering long-term relationships is at the heart of The Hair Lounge, and it shows. Expect warm, personalised service whether it’s your first visit or your tenth.
Experienced in blonde balayage
If you’re looking for a colourist to treat your blonde tresses, you’ll be in safe hands. The team is experienced in working with a variety of hair types, especially Caucasian and blonde hair. Whether it’s soft blonde balayage, customised all-over blonde, subtle lowlights or root extensions you’re after, they’ve got you covered. The Holland Village salon also provides ongoing training to ensure that all hairstylists stay up-to-date with the latest advanced colouring and blonde balayage techniques as well as industry innovations.
Cool chic cuts
Besides great colouring, The Hair Lounge excels in precision haircuts tailored to individual styles and preferences. Think cool edgy cuts, classic looks and everything in between. According to Jerome, the most popular styles clients ask for at this Holland Village salon include soft layered cuts that add movement and dimension, blunt cuts for a sleek, sharp look, and textured bobs that are stylish yet easy to manage.
Quality hair products
We all know that hair products can make or break your hair. And on the shelves of The Hair Lounge you’ll find a great selection to keep hair looking and feeling great. The team exclusively uses award-winning Oribe shampoos and conditioners. For colouring, they use L’Oréal and Shiseido products. Plus, Pureology and Olaplex treatments are available for improving hair health and vibrancy.
Holistic signature hair treatments
Speaking of treatments, The Hair Lounge offers a holistic selection designed to nurture your hair back to its healthiest, shiniest form. Signature treatments include the Collagen Repair Treatment, the Olaplex Treatment for protecting hair from heat and chemical damage, the Kerastase deep conditioning masks for extra nourishment and hydration, and a range of specialised scalp treatments.
Why EL’s Susan loves this Holland Village salon:
“I’ve been going to The Hair Lounge for at least eight years now, and I can’t recommend them enough. Jerome, Hanks and the team are always accommodating and kind to me and my kids. Jerome always does a fun ‘summer hair’ colour for my daughter and makes sure it’s completely washed off before the new school year starts! He’s a top hair colourist and very popular within the expat community.”

The Hair Lounge is at 277A Holland Avenue.
