Hair Salon & Facial & Clothes – RASA GAYA, Ubud

Calm on Jl. Raya Sanggingan

On busy Jl. Raya Sanggingan No.369 in Kedewatan, RASA GAYA feels more like a slow, calm studio than a typical high‑street salon. Hidden among Ubud’s luxury hotels and restaurants, it draws digital nomads, expats and style‑minded travellers who are happy to trade local prices for meticulous care and a polished, monochrome aesthetic.

Open daily from 10h00 – 19h00, it’s worth double‑checking you’ve booked Ubud rather than their Pererenan (Canggu) branch when reserving via Fresha.

Hair Colour, Cuts & Repair Treatments

Colour is the star here. Reviewers mention “author’s coloring”, complex blonde corrections and Japanese repair treatments, often after months of sun, sea and Bali humidity. Clients highlight multidimensional, natural shades with “no harsh lines”, and several say their hair has “never looked better” after sessions with stylists like Tiffany, Ricko, Daria, Ando and Hendra.

Damage repair is a recurring theme: Milbon and Japanese treatments, hydrating masks and long, careful detangling sessions for sun‑fried or travel‑worn hair. One guest paid around 3.5 million IDR ($216 usd) for bleaching and coloring and still felt it was “not bad by western standards”.

Facials, ‘Glass Skin’ & Sculpting Massage

Beyond hair, RASA GAYA runs a focused menu of facials and skin treatments. Guests describe detox facials during yoga teacher trainings, deeply nourishing protocols after weeks in the Bali heat, and sculpting face massages that leave “glass skin”.

Therapists like Leya, Lady and Maureen earn special mentions for being mindful of skin type, sweat and congestion, and for small rituals like tea with dried fruits after treatment.

Clothes & Concept Store Vibe

RASA GAYA is also a boutique. Between appointments, some guests browse and buy minimalist cotton pieces and “gorgeous” outfits that fit the same clean, neutral aesthetic as the salon. The space itself is repeatedly described as modern, stylish, artistic and pristine.

Instagram (@rasagayabali) extends this universe: a curated feed of hair transformations, slow‑life visuals and simple silhouettes that mirrors the on‑site experience.

Service Style & Atmosphere

Reviews across Google and Fresha point to a consistent culture: warm reception, detailed consultations and stylists who explain each step. When something isn’t perfect, the team appears willing to revise cuts and take responsibility, as in one detailed update about a corrective appointment with Victoria.

You’ll pay in the higher Bali bracket — women’s cuts start around 900 000 IDR, colour from 1 100 000 IDR — but most visitors describe it as money well spent for calm, expertise and results that feel closer to a European city than a backpacker strip.

Who Will Love It

RASA GAYA Ubud suits travellers and residents who prioritise technical colour, careful treatments and a soothing, design‑driven space over bargain prices, and who like the idea of leaving with both renewed hair or skin and a new favourite outfit.
