You don’t need an introduction to the famed Orchard Road shopping strip, which is a haven for shopaholics and foodies alike with its endless retail stores and restaurants. But if you’re down for a spot of pampering, there’s a hidden gem just off the busier streets: Delfi Orchard.
Not only does it boast a curation of top hair and beauty salons, it’s also got a mix of lifestyle and home furnishing stores, too. We highlight some of the shops to check out.
Trendy but effortless and wearable, Korean hairstyles are undoubtedly one of the most popular looks. To give your locks a chic K-makeover, make your way to Aqua Hair Korean Salon, which first opened in 2011. You can consult the salon’s all-Korean team, which has experienced hairstylists who are dedicated to their craft.
There is a plethora of services that suit various hair lengths and textures, but the salon is most sought after for its C-curl and S-curl perm services. The Korean C-curl creates natural inward-curls while the Korean S-curl gives soft waves that can be customised to flatter your face shape, and boost volume for any hair length. Both start from $280++.

The right choice of window treatment doesn’t just complement your interiors — consider appropriate safety features that match your family’s living habits too, especially if you have kids around. Blinds with long cords, for instance, can be a hazard that the kids or pets can get tangled up in.
If safety is at the top of your priority list, check out Winsor Interiors for motorised options. It offers cordless blinds from Hunter Douglas, as well as ones with automation. These allow you to control your blinds with a push of a button, via your mobile device, or even voice control if they are connected to a compatible smart-home system. Plus: Hunter Douglas blinds are designed to be energy-efficient by blocking heat from sunlight, which reduces the amount of cooling energy required.
