Hair Salons in Kos Town

The salons sit inside the walkable core of Kos Town, mostly on or just off the main shopping streets, which makes fitting an appointment around a day in town straightforward.

Between them they cover the full range — cutting and colour for women and men, styling, and nail work — and several combine hair and nails under one roof.

The salons in central Kos Town serve residents all year and visitors through the season, so a request from someone passing through is completely routine. English is widely spoken, and most stylists are used to explaining options to clients who cannot describe them in Greek.

Appointments are worth making a day or two ahead in July and August, when residents and visitors compete for the same slots. Outside those months walk-ins are far more likely to be accommodated, particularly earlier in the day.

Two things are worth thinking about on a beach holiday specifically. Sun, salt water and chlorine are hard on colour-treated hair, so a toning or conditioning treatment mid-trip is a common request. And if you want a cut before flying home, book it for the start of your last full day rather than leaving it to the morning of departure.
