About us

A studio built for ritual, not rush.

Nano Salon opened on Argwings Kodhek Road in 2019 with two chairs and a simple idea: grooming in Nairobi should feel like a pause in the day.

The Nano Salon floor in Kilimani, Nairobi

Twelve people, one standard.

Today the studio runs six stylists, four barbers and two nail artists across a single open floor. We serve women and men, and we keep the space quiet enough to hear yourself think.

Most of our clients live or work within a few streets of Kilimani, and many have been in the same chair since our first year.

What we hold to

Texture first

Every stylist and barber on the floor is trained across hair types, from 4C coils to fine straight hair.

One client, one chair

We book generous slots so nobody is rushed, double-parked or left waiting under a dryer.

Honest pricing

The price you see is the price you pay. Any surcharge is agreed with you before we start.
