Number76

Made an appointment for a haircut with the senior director. I was really curious to try this salon as I have seen so many «Thank you» posts on Instagram. I was disappointed with the service I received and the outcome of the blowdry. I had 3 different people working on my hair and I did not receive personal service at all. I can honestly do a better blowdry myself! They are probably good with ombres but I would not recommend a haircut at all. I reckon this is just an Instagram hype and a business with loads of marketing and branding strategies! Do not be fooled!

This Japanese hair saloon seemed indeed busy on a Sunday afternoon, so I decided to give it a try on a week day.
A few of my friends advised me to call and make an appointment otherwise I wouldn’t get a place no matter when !
I was shocked and didn’t believe it at first but after my second unsuccessful attempt I just accepted the reality.
Once I made my appointment and went to the salon I was really satisfied. The service was good but the price was a little high.
Nevertheless, I prefer the salon next door — Ish!:)

I had my highlights done at Number 76 once by the director stylist. The salon itself is very clean and neat with wooden floorboards and wood framed mirrors with a cool waiting area– giving off a very vintage feel and vibe.
It is a salon imported from Japan itself, and some of their staff members are Japanese, so if you’re after a completely new hairdo with green-​tinged tips or big blowout waves, then Number 76 is the place to be.
I came here once to get my ombré hair done and as far as I can tell, they are experts in this area! It came out looking very well blended in and natural, and the products they use are of top notch quality. Give their Ultra Sonic Iron treatment a shot if you could, which is unique to Number 76 and where a special flat iron is used to iron your semi-​wet post-​treated hair in a non-​damaging way where the nutrients in the hair treatment done earlier is allowed to penetrate deep into your hair follicles.
When my stylist described it, I decided to give it a try and I left the salon with hair that was finally manageable for once, and silky smooth!
Highly recommend Number 76 if you want a change in hairstyle!

I have to say that I didn’t expect to see a hair salon in Telawi area, between all the bars and restaurants. Therefore I decided to go inside and check the place and the services which they offer.
The staff was very nice and they took me through the salon and the products. They event looked at my hair and they did a small consultation. They told me what I already know, that I have a normal type of hair, but I need to give him more treatment, because it can become dried very easy.
The design of the salon is simple but elegant, which a couple of chairs. You can make an appointment if you want, but they are not so full, so you can just drop by if you want a hair style change.

Number 76 is a Japanese Hair Saloon, it was started in Tokyo, Japan and then it expanded to Malaysia, and I’m so glad that it did. Before I visited Number 76, I did my hair in different places and trying out different service in the town, until I first visited number 76 and became their loyal customer.
I did my haircut, digital perm and color during my first visit. And, I was very satisfied with the outcome and it costed about MYR 700++. Yes, it is quite expensive but i think it worth the money for the quality and the service they provide. Number 76 has a team of skilful hair stylists which gives professional consultations. Indeed, they greet you in the Japanese way, the 90 degree bow and you’ll feel like you’re in Japan. LOL!
They do offer a lot of different promotion all year long and it is one of the reason that I become their loyal customer. After your first visit, you’ll automatically become their member and entitled a MYR20 discount for the next visit and also the point collections. Besides that, there will be a free treatment that worth MYR 280 during your birthday month. It’s super awesome right? And i think the Number 76 experience makes them outstanding and different from other saloons.

Number 76 has its name originated from its shop in Japan, and they have expanded their business to malaysia and particularly kuala lumpur.
What you can expect from this salon is exclusivity and luxury. Rather infused with the Japanese culture, you’ll realize that the workers in the salon are very polite and respectful, and not only to the customers but the senior and director stylists too.
I first visited their branch in the starhill gallery and then come to this later on.
As i still had the rm20 voucher from the first visit, so this time i spent it on their scalp treatment here. I must say that even though it’s quite pricey, but the treatment here is really different. Also, the attentive service given by them really makes all the bucks worth it.
Do also check out their line promotions, as they are pretty active with their official number 76 line account. They actually have monthly promotions on treatments and products.
So, if you are ready to splurge and you are craving for some luxuries, why not?

It all began with a random search online for a saloon and I found Number 76. When I arrived at their outlet at Telawi Square, I was like oh no, this is not gonna be cheap.
If you have not seen the place, it really looks posh but as I entered, I actually felt the environment was rather welcoming. Thank you to the staff there, they are so well mannered.
My visit there was to dye my hair and the stylist who attended me was such a great consultant. He recommended that I should go with purple and red, and I was like no way! But after much convincing and seeing the result, I really loved it.
I also had digital perming as well as the Ultrasonic Treatment a.k.a the magic treatment provided by them. What makes this treatment unique is that it uses a straightening iron look-​alike thing to run through your hair with the treatment cream applied. The machine produces ultrasonic waves and eventually helps your hair to absorb nutrients in the treatment cream. How cool is that.
I spent a total of RM700 plus for my overall hairdo. Yes, it is expensive but I love every single bit of this place. Thumbs up to the great service and «workmanship».

This Japanese inspired salon gained traction thanks to the vast amount of Malaysian bloggers who visited the salon. Known best for doing ombré multi-​colour hairstyles which was trending at one point in time, Number 76 has rapidly expanded to various branches in Mont Kiara, two in Bangsar, Mid Valley and an upcoming one in the new Atria.
As a frequent salon customer, I had always wanted to try out Number 76 but the slightly higher price had deterred me until I spotted a deal on Living Social for first-​time customers. I snapped up the deal for RM35 (the usual price for a haircut is set at RM76) and booked an appointment via their online website which was quick and convenient to navigate. Since it was my first time there, I randomly selected Shaun as my stylist at the Bangsar Telawi 3 branch.
Upon arrival, I was given a member form to fill up and a complimentary member card to collect points. Given its popularity, the salon was packed with customers on a weekend and I would recommend making your appointment in advance especially if you intend to visit on a weekend as slots are always snapped up. I showed Shaun a picture of the hairstyle I wanted and he obliged without any objection. The hairwash was done slightly different compared to other salons as they placed an eye paper mask and a towel over my lap. I find that pretty considerate as most salons don’t practice that. Shaun did his job very quickly yet was efficient enough to produce the results I wanted. He also had a humourous side and consulted me every step of the haircut to make sure I approved what he was doing. However, don’t expect the stylists at Number 76 to provide suggestions to you especially if you don’t know what hairstyle or colour you want.
Safe to say, that first visit won me over and I became a regular customer at Number 76 despite paying the full price. Unfortunately for me, Shaun has just been promoted to salon director so his services cost more now.

Going by its location in Bangsar Telawi, one doesn’t need to do much research to know that Number 76 isn’t going to be the typical cut and blow experience you will find at those speedycut outlets at the mall. Sure the prices are relatively more expensive but this salon has to be doing something right due to its throng of fiercely loyal customers. From celebrity bloggers to rich datin-​in-​training types to everyday people with irritatingly good hair, Number 76 hosts a team of highly skilled stylists who are exceptionally detail oriented and nimble fingered. Whether you’re looking to dye your mop a shade of electric blue or if you just want to refresh your past excuse of a haircut, these guys listen and will work with you towards getting the look you’re going for

Being a hair salon in places such as Bangsar, The Gardens and Starhill Gallery, the pricing at Number 76 is definitely not cheap. A simple hair cut could easily cost you more than RM60 and a director cut would be calling for RM99. Even it cost a bomb; many people are still willing to pay for their service. Why? Simple answer: Because they are good at what they are doing!
I had been dragging for way too long to get my hair cut, and contemplating whether to try out Number 76. I’ve heard many good comments on them, but I’ve been to hair salon with such comment and it turned out to be a disaster for me. However, I knew it was way overdue for me to get a haircut and decided to try out Number 76 since they were having a 50% discount that time. The moment I stepped in, the staffs were very friendly and there was a very energetic vibe going on in the salon. While waiting for my turn, I noticed that they enjoy what they were doing and it was good news for me. Most of the stylist there were Japanese, so unless you can speak Japanese or you’ll need the staffs to be your translator. Initially I was worried that things might get lost in translation but it turned out to be perfectly fine. My stylist, Mr Yamamoto, was very patient and knew what he was doing. I have no idea what I wanted, but the end results were very satisfying — I received a lot of positive feedback from my friends after that! Apart from styling, they are famous for creating beautiful hair colours too.
Overall, if you are looking to have something different (and have that bit of extra cash to spend), do try out the services at Number 76. I’m sure you would not regret after that!
