Savlamara Posted February 2, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Does anyone know if they braid hair in the on board hair salon? Specifically the Breeze? Has anyone used an onboard Carnival hair salon on any ship? If so, how were the prices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Dutch Girl Posted February 2, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 2, 2015 If you are going to the "islands" I would just wait until you hit port. Every fifth gal has a braid practice going, whether at the beach, downtown, at a resort, or even outside some restaurants. And they do a wonderful job for 10bucks. A trick: clean hair is much harder to braid than day old hair. And you can wash it after it has been braided. The hair salons on ship are exhorbitant in price and the gals aren't that talented.

RWolver672 Posted February 3, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 3, 2015 An almost bald man here that's never had his hair braided but from reading on here over the years, it would seem that most people say to never get your hair braided or beaded on the islands. The combs they use aren't cleaned after each use and sometimes the people doing the braiding have lice eggs under their fingernails. As I said, I'm only speaking from what I have read on here.

If I were to believe everything I read on Cruise Critic I would be so paranoid I would never ever set foot out of my front door. I've had my hair braided countless times while cruise vacationing and have never had a problem....these aren't 3rd world countries after all.

Sweet Dutch Girl Posted February 3, 2015 #6 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Ummm...yeah, a lot of them are. Where do you travel? I have yet to visit a country on any cruise that "within 50 miles of the cruise port" doesn't have running water, sanitation, cell phone towers and wifi.

Savlamara Posted February 3, 2015 Author #7 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Yeah I had read about multiple people catching lice from getting braids dont in port, so I'll pass. I'll do it before getting on board. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
