Market Definition: High-end salons offering elite services under the broad categories of hair care, skin care, facials, nail care, spa treatments, and wellness services constitute the luxury salon market in KSA. This also includes a growing number of luxury spas and wellness services, such as relaxation and rejuvenation treatments.
Primary Driver: Increased affluence among Saudi women and a change in social dynamics, along with rising disposable incomes, draw forth the demand for luxury beauty and grooming services. With an additional thrust toward personal wellness and grooming among women, the market also grows.
Fastest Growing Segment: Hair Care & Styling is driven by the demand for personalized grooming, international styling trends, and premium services, which is mostly visible in urban luxury salons. Hair styling is made popular by social media and celebrity culture, thereby increasing the traffic for advanced treatments.
According to a new report by UnivDatos, the KSA Luxury Salon market is expected to reach USD million in 2033 by growing at a CAGR of 8.53% during the forecast period (2025- 2033F). An increase in disposable income and changing consumer lifestyle preferences rank high among the growth drivers of the luxury salon market in KSA. Over the past decade, KSA witnessed consistent economic diversification trends, leading to the reduction of reliance on oil revenues and the generation of new streams of wealth among the urban middle and upper-class populations. Such changes have increased consumer purchasing power, especially among women and young adults, fueling demand for non-essential but aspirational service offerings such as luxury grooming and beauty treatments. With steady growth in per capita income according to the Saudi General Authority for Statistics, an increase in lifestyle spending, with personal care goods and services topping the list, came into existence. Luxury salons that offer a more personalized experience, premium international beauty brands, and exclusive services have become highly popular in those cities, including Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam. This is further reinforced by the expansion of luxury retail infrastructure- luxury malls, five-star hotels, and lifestyle hubs that offer an apt physical environment for the salon chains to mark their presence. Therefore, the increased disposable income and lifestyle shifts propel the KSA luxury salon market.
Based on Service Type, the market is segmented into Hair Care & Styling, Skin Care & Facials, Nail Care, Spa& Wellness services, and Others. Among these, Hair Care & Styling is leading the market. This is due to high demand for personalized grooming, bridal hairstyling, and regular maintenance among affluent Saudi women. With increased workforce participation and social events, premium hair treatments and international styling trends have driven consistent footfall, making it the most revenue-generating service category across urban luxury salons. Hair care and styling have served as the profit pillar of the luxury-salon segment in Saudi Arabia for a host of compelling reasons. One, the hot, humid coastal climate lining Saudi Arabian shores causes chronic frizzy texture and dryness, showing a dire need for keratin smoothing, protein reconstruction, and blow-outs, the more these services are priced higher and rendered more frequently. Additionally, Vision 2030 enables women to join the workforce and scenic hair grooming to be a part of their image of executive presence; this favor has allowed many to book maintenance packages that encompass a cut, color, and scalp therapy in one go.
Based on gender, the Saudi Arabia Luxury Salon Market is bifurcated into male and female segments. Among them, the female segment dominates the market and is expected to continue doing so for the projected years. The major factors contributing to the growth of the segment include the growing beauty-conscious youth cohort and wider workforce participation (a sharply higher female labor-force participation rate, now 36 % vs. 19 % a decade ago, giving millions of women their discretionary income). More and more women in salaries procuring higher ticket size packages for color correction, keratin, and anti-ageing facial treatments. Chains like Tips & Toes capitalize on this opportunity, with 41 Gulf/KSA branches, with membership categories bundling services for hair, nails, and hammam for heavy consumers. The country is attracting 15000+ professional visitors and 400+ global brands to Riyadh, bringing all attention to salon technology updates and hence upgrade cycles in equipment and training through trade fairs. Additionally, digital-native clients look up on Instagram, Snapchat, or TikTok for "Russian" manicures or Japanese brow-lifts and reward salons that invest in Instagram-worthy interiors and on-time booking apps.
