Mont Kiara has salons in condominium podiums, shopping malls and the shop rows of Solaris Mont Kiara. That is handy when you want choice and tiring when you simply want a good haircut.
This guide narrows the area to seven salons covering cuts, colour, perms, rebonding and scalp care. If you are comparing options across Malaysia as well, our guide to the best hair specialists in Malaysia is a good companion read.
How We Chose These Salons
Our salon guides look first at whether a salon assesses your scalp and strands before any chemical work, a standard we call the diagnose-before-dye rule. Walking On Sunshine and Hairplay are covered in our hair specialist guide, which uses that rule. The other five come from the salons’ own pages and public listings, so we describe what they offer rather than how they perform.
Prices change often and are not always published, so we have left them out. Confirm them with the salon when you book.
Where to Find Salons in Mont Kiara
The salons below are spread across a few clusters. Walking On Sunshine is in Sunway 163 Mall, and 76STYLE is in Plaza Mont Kiara, both on Jalan Kiara. JeffLee and Re:Do Hair Boutique are in Solaris Mont Kiara, Aki Hair Studio is in the Verve Shops, and Blonde Studio is in Kiaraville on Changkat Duta Kiara.
Knowing the cluster helps you plan the trip. You can pair a salon visit with errands in the same mall or shop row instead of crossing the neighbourhood.
Seven Hair Salons in Mont Kiara
1. Walking On Sunshine
Walking On Sunshine is on the first floor of Sunway 163 Mall on Jalan Kiara. Our hair specialist guide lists Korean head spa, C-curl and Korean perms, one-tone colour and rebonding as its specialist services, and notes that Malaysia’s Top Ten gave it 93 out of 100 in July 2026.
The salon says free consultations are available daily, and walk-ins are accepted although booking is recommended for weekends and Fridays. It also offers private rooms for hijab-wearing clients and female-only staff on request, which is useful to know before you book. Nail and facial services are also available, and the salon lists a signature service called the Cinderella Treatment, so ask what it involves.
Best for: Scalp care and head spa, Korean-style perms, and clients who want private rooms or female-only staff.
2. 76STYLE
76STYLE is in Plaza Mont Kiara on Jalan Kiara and opens daily, including public holidays. Public listings describe Tokyo-style haircuts and scalp treatments, alongside nail and eyelash services.
The salon takes bookings and consultations, so ask what a scalp treatment involves before you commit.
Best for: A haircut and scalp care under one roof.
3. JeffLee The Hair Company
JeffLee has a branch at Lot 16, Block J, Solaris Mont Kiara. Its website lists haircuts, colour, straightening, perms and hair treatments, and public listings add hair spas and wedding or event styling.
Because straightening and perms are chemical services, ask for a strand check before either one.
Best for: One salon for several services, including wedding or event styling.
4. Aki Hair Studio
Aki Hair Studio is in the Verve Shops in Mont Kiara. It describes itself as a Japanese hair studio, founded and headed by Masayuki Akiyama, offering contemporary Japanese hair styling.
Listed services are colour, cuts, perms and treatments. If you like a Japanese approach to cutting, our hair specialist guide also covers Japanese cutting at Number76 in the wider Klang Valley.
Best for: Japanese-style cuts and styling.
5. Hairplay
Hairplay is in nearby Solaris Dutamas, at Block D3. Our hair specialist guide describes personalised cuts and colour built from an in-depth consultation on texture, daily routine and skin tone.
The salon was founded by stylist Shaun Yap and Marion Caunter. The consultation focuses on how you actually style your hair.
Best for: Low-maintenance cuts and colour built around your daily routine.
6. Re:Do Hair Boutique
Re:Do Hair Boutique is on Jalan Solaris 4 in Solaris Mont Kiara. Public listings show haircuts, permanent waves and keratin treatment for both men and women.
As with any chemical service, ask what the stylist checks on your hair first.
Best for: A cut and a smoothing service from the same place.
7. Blonde Studio
Blonde Studio is in Kiaraville on Changkat Duta Kiara. It focuses on blonde colouring, highlights and blonde hair maintenance.
Lightening hair is a chemical service, so this is where the diagnose-before-dye rule matters most. Ask for a strand check and a clear plan for aftercare before you book. Blonde hair usually needs ongoing maintenance, so ask how often you should return and what that will involve.
Best for: Blonde colouring and highlights.
How to Choose a Hair Salon in Mont Kiara
Ask for a Scalp and Strand Check First
A good consultation looks at your scalp and strands before anything is applied. If a salon offers this as part of the service rather than as an add-on, you are more likely to get advice that suits your hair. Ask about it when you book.
Match the Service to Your Goal
Head spa, hair spa and scalp treatment are not the same thing. Our guide to hair spa vs scalp treatment vs head spa describes a head spa as a cleanse and massage service rather than a targeted treatment. If your scalp needs more than relaxation, our scalp treatment guide for KL is the better place to start.
Think About Thinning Before You Book
If thinning is your main worry, a haircut or head spa may not address it. Our guide to hair loss treatment in Malaysia compares salons, trichologists and dermatologists so you can decide who to see first.
Ask About Aftercare for Chemical Services
Perms, rebonding, keratin treatment and colour all change the hair, so aftercare matters. Ask the stylist how to wash and style your hair at home, how soon you can book a follow-up and which products they recommend. A salon that answers clearly is usually one that has looked at your hair properly.
Confirm Prices and Hours Before You Go
Opening hours differ between listings, and prices vary by stylist and hair length. Call or message the salon, and ask for a price range for your service before you book.
Finding the Right Mont Kiara Salon for You
Start with what you want done. If scalp care is the goal, Walking On Sunshine and 76STYLE are the clearest starting points from this list, and Walking On Sunshine also lists Korean perms. For a personalised cut, Hairplay is built around consultation, and for colour or smoothing services, JeffLee, Re:Do and Blonde Studio are worth a call.
If you are not sure where to begin, book a consultation at one or two salons and compare how each explains its plan. The one that looks at your scalp and strands before it talks about products is usually the better fit.
Whichever you choose, ask what will be checked on your hair before any chemical service begins. You can find more salon and hair care guides in our hair category.
Frequently Asked Questions About Hair Salons in Mont Kiara
Which Mont Kiara Salon Offers a Head Spa?
Walking On Sunshine lists a head spa among its services, and its head spa runs until 10pm daily according to its website. 76STYLE is listed for scalp treatments, so ask which service suits your scalp.
Is There a Salon With Private Rooms for Hijab-Wearing Clients?
Walking On Sunshine says it offers private rooms for hijab-wearing clients, and female-only staff on request. Ask when you book so the salon can arrange this for your visit.
Is a Head Spa the Same as a Scalp Treatment?
No. Our guide describes a head spa as a cleanse and massage service rather than a targeted treatment, while a scalp treatment is chosen to address a specific concern. Read our hair spa vs scalp treatment guide before you choose.
Should I Book a Consultation Before Colouring My Hair?
Yes. Colour is a chemical service, so a consultation that checks your scalp and strands first helps the stylist recommend a suitable plan. Free consultations are one thing to look for when you compare salons.
