The short answer
Ten hair treatment brands are on offer across the three UNIQUE PERSONA salons. Keratin, hair botox and nanoplastia are not among them. Keratin and hair botox are booked at Dubai Marina alone, and nanoplastia is done mainly there; Downtown Dubai can sometimes do it on request, so message the salon first. Tokio Inkarami and Absolute Happiness are at all three salons, priced by hair length from AED 520 and AED 470, and the lowest price of any treatment here is K18 added to another hair service, from AED 210 at Downtown Dubai.
Five of the ten are at every salon: Tokio Inkarami, Absolute Happiness, K18, the Brae ampoule and Blome Shinsei.
Hair that is dry, damaged, coloured or thinning at the scalp does not want the same treatment. Which one is right for yours is a decision your stylist makes with you, after looking at what your hair is actually doing.
What hair treatments are available in Dubai?
Tokio Inkarami, Absolute Happiness, K18, the Brae ampoule and Blome Shinsei are at Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah. L'ANZA, Genosys, the Kydra ampoule and a Nubea scalp treatment are at Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah. The Balmain five week enriching treatment is at Palm Jumeirah, where it runs as a summer offer, so ask whether it is still on.
Five of the ten are priced by hair length. Tokio Inkarami, Absolute Happiness, L'ANZA and K18 each run across four bands, short, medium, long and extra long, and Blome Shinsei across short, medium and long. Genosys, the Nubea scalp treatment, the Balmain treatment, the Brae treatments and the Kydra ampoule are one price whatever your length.
Which treatments are added to another service?
Some are added to another hair service and are not booked on their own. K18 is one, at all three salons. So is the Brae ampoule at all three, the Kydra ampoule at Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah, and two Blome treatments at Downtown Dubai.
The price sits on top of whatever else you are having. K18 from AED 210 means AED 210 added to the cut, colour or blow-dry you came in for, and it is not booked by itself.
The Brae Nubea scalp gommage at Downtown Dubai can be had either way. On its own it is AED 500. Added to another hair service it is AED 350.
Which treatments are for the scalp?
Three of them are scalp treatments. The Nubea scalp treatment is at Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah. Downtown Dubai has the Brae Nubea scalp gommage, which can be booked on its own or added to another service, and a Blome Shinsei scalp treatment that is always an addition.
If what bothers you sits at the roots rather than along the lengths, ask for these by name. If your concern is hair loss, the guide to hair loss treatment in Dubai covers Nubea Anti-Hairloss and Genosys, and when to see a doctor first.

Full price lists: Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah.
Where a price begins with "from", that is where the treatment starts. For Tokio Inkarami, Absolute Happiness, L'ANZA and Blome Shinsei it is the short hair price, and each length is one price at every stylist grade, except L'ANZA at Dubai Marina, where the price also depends on the grade of stylist you book.
Where no price is shown, ask for it when you book.
Added treatments are priced separately again. K18 is from AED 210 at Downtown Dubai on top of another hair service. It is at Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah too, and the price there is one to ask for. The Brae ampoule is AED 250 at Downtown Dubai and is also at the other two salons. The Kydra ampoule is at Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah. At Downtown Dubai a Blome Shinsei scalp treatment is AED 200 on top of another service, and a second Blome addition is offered there as well.
What is offered at each salon?
Downtown Dubai is the only salon with a Brae treatment and a Brae Nubea scalp gommage, and the only one where a Blome treatment can also be added to another service. Palm Jumeirah is the only one with the Balmain five week enriching treatment.
If you have had one of these before and want it again, ask for it by brand name.
Hair botox in Dubai
Hair botox is not one of the ten treatment brands. It is a smoothing service, booked at Dubai Marina only and priced by length. At Dubai Marina, hair botox is AED 700 for the roots, AED 1000 short, AED 1200 medium and AED 1500 long. Downtown Dubai and Palm Jumeirah do not list it. Keratin is on the same list at the same prices, and how the two differ is set out in hair botox vs keratin.
What should you ask before you book?
Which treatment suits your hair, and why that one. The answer turns on what your hair has been through rather than on what costs most.
Whether what you are booking is an addition to another service. That price lands on top of a cut, a colour or a blow-dry, not in place of one.
Which length band you fall into, since a starting price is the short hair one.
Which grade of stylist the appointment is with if you are booking L'ANZA at Dubai Marina, because that moves the price.
Smoothing is a different conversation. Keratin is at Dubai Marina alone, and so is hair botox. Nanoplastia is done mainly at Dubai Marina, and Downtown Dubai can sometimes do it on request, so message the salon first. Colour is priced separately again.
