Kimage is a boutique hair salon chain in Singapore, established in 1994 on the belief that an individual's personality can be amplified through the craft of hairdressing. The brand's site states it operates 8 outlets across Singapore (in one stats section) and separately describes having "10 hair studios" in its About Us copy, alongside a hairdressing school that holds EduTrust certification from the Singapore Committee for Private Education — described as a first for a hairdressing school in Singapore.
Kimage's core services include Senior Stylists and Junior Stylists, Keratin Treatment, Scalp Treatment, Hair Colour Treatments, and Hair Perm. The brand's stated vision is to be the hair professionals that Singapore turns to, with a mission built around global standards and consistency of service, and a philosophy centred on understanding each customer's individuality to craft a style that fits their personality.
Kimage outlets are located across malls including Northpoint City, Parkway Parade, Tampines, Toa Payoh, Marina Square, Tiong Bahru Plaza, Lot 1 Shoppers Mall, and Bukit Panjang Plaza, with its Head Office and hairdressing school based at Marina Square.
Kimage has been part of Singapore's hairdressing scene since 1994, built on a founding belief that a person's individuality can be brought out through the craft of hairdressing rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Over three decades, the boutique chain has grown into a network the brand describes as spanning 8 outlets across Singapore in one part of its site, and "10 hair studios" elsewhere in its About Us copy — either way, a substantial island-wide presence for a homegrown hair salon brand.
Kimage frames its entire approach around understanding its customers. The brand states its philosophy has "always been focused on our customer's individuality," with stylists trained to build relationships and trust that let them craft styles matched to each client's personality. That philosophy feeds into the brand's stated vision — to be the hair professionals that Singapore turns to — and its mission to bring global standards and consistency to its hair services.
Rather than a single flat service tier, Kimage structures its stylist offering around Senior Stylists and Junior Stylists, giving clients a choice depending on their budget and preferences. Beyond cuts, the salon's core treatment menu includes Keratin Treatment, Scalp Treatment, Hair Colour Treatments, and Hair Perm — a fairly comprehensive spread covering both everyday maintenance and more involved chemical services.
One detail that sets Kimage apart from many salon chains is its hairdressing school, which has been awarded EduTrust certification by the Singapore Committee for Private Education — something the brand notes as a first for a hairdressing school in Singapore. That certification points to a level of institutional rigour behind the training its stylists go through, rather than an informal in-house program.
Reviews on Kimage's site point to specific stylists by name across different outlets. One client praised stylist Kelly Foong for a haircut that matched exactly what they wanted, while another highlighted Chris Tan at the Tiong Bahru outlet for meticulous, attentive service, recommending online booking during peak hours. Other reviewers mentioned stylists Derrick and Sean, both credited with strong recommendations, clear communication using photo examples, and cuts that suited their face shape and style.
For those looking to give the gift of a good haircut, Kimage offers a loadable Gift Card, valid at any Kimage outlet islandwide, though not valid at the Kimage Hairdressing School or for Junior Stylist services, and valid for one year from the date of purchase. The brand has also previously offered Prepaid Pack and Value Pack privilege cards with discounts on hair services and products, though these are no longer available for new purchase — existing cardholders can continue to use their remaining balance.
Kimage operates across a spread of Singapore malls, including Northpoint City, Parkway Parade, Tampines, Toa Payoh, Marina Square, Tiong Bahru Plaza, Lot 1 Shoppers Mall, and Bukit Panjang Plaza. Its Head Office and hairdressing school are based at Marina Square, #02-319, 6 Raffles Boulevard, Singapore 039594.
For anyone in Singapore looking for a salon chain with three decades of history, a certified training pipeline, and a stylist structure that scales to different budgets, Kimage's spread of outlets and consistent service philosophy make it a familiar name across the island.
