Haircuts and nails in Da Nang when you live here: what the recurring stuff costs

A holiday doesn’t need a barber. Six months does — roughly every four weeks, plus whatever else you keep up with. It’s one of the quiet differences between visiting a place and living in it, and it’s worth knowing the going rate before you’re sitting in the chair.

Prices below come from listings on vietSpots, checked 12/11/2026: 12 shops in barbershop and 31 in nail, all in Da Nang. These are the shops’ own published prices.

Haircuts: 90,000 to 150,000₫

The cheapest on the list is Kylee Barber Shop at 464/20 Trưng Nữ Vương — a cut at 90,000₫, wash 70,000₫, shave 70,000₫, hot towel shave 100,000₫. It also lists ear cleaning at 80,000₫ and a neck-and-shoulder massage at 70,000₫, which is a cheap addition if you’ve been at a desk all day.

At 150,000₫ a cut you get more shop around it. Soldier Barber Shop at 153 Lê Quang Đạo lists a hot towel shave at 110,000₫ and a holistic hair wash at 200,000₫. Tiệm cắt tóc Quê Hương at 52 Lê Văn Quý in An Hải lists colour at 250,000₫, ear cleaning at 200,000₫, and a shave-plus-wash combo at 200,000₫ — cheaper than the two apart.

Most of these shops are Korean

Worth saying plainly, because it explains the category. Of the twelve, you’ll find Jeil on Đình Nghệ, Nakwon on Đỗ Bá, Haneul on Chính Hữu, Seoul on Bạch Đằng, and Busan with two branches — the original at 94 Trần Phú by Chợ Hàn and the main shop at 17 Hùng Vương. Da Nang has a large Korean resident community and these shops grew around it, which in practice means they’re used to customers who don’t speak Vietnamese.

The Korean shops also tend to sell the full sit-down rather than just a cut. Tiệm cắt tóc & Nail Seoul lists ear cleaning at 250,000₫, foot massage with ear cleaning at 430,000₫, and a full service with heel scrub listed at 800,000₫ and currently showing 700,000₫. Bubble Wash on Phạm Văn Đồng does Korean-style scrub and body care, with a combo of shave, ear cleaning, wash, face massage, stretching and blow-dry listed at 500,000₫ and currently showing 450,000₫. It runs to 23:30, the latest in the category.

Nails: the basics are cheap, the designs aren’t

The maintenance end is genuinely inexpensive. De Aura at 16 Nại Nam 6 lists gel removal at 10,000₫, cuticle work and nail repair at 30,000₫, gel colour at 90,000₫. Lynn.Nail&Shampoo at 378 Lê Duẩn lists cuticle work at 30,000₫, gel removal at 20,000₫, jelly polish at 90,000₫, gel at 100,000₫. YaMe Nail at 173 Đống Đa lists shaping at 30,000₫, a fill at 100,000₫, extensions at 160,000₫ — and men’s nail care at 50,000₫, which not every salon lists.

Design work is where it climbs. Nailbylyn at 49 An Cư 1 lists plain gel at 160,000₫, three-colour at 180,000₫, ombre or cat-eye at 240,000₫, French or BIAD at 260,000₫ — and stays open to 22:30. The C Nails on Phan Châu Trinh lists gel overlay at 450,000₫ and a hand mask at 60,000₫.

MITI Nail Spa at 65 Nguyễn Thái Học is currently showing its packages at half the listed price — 500,000₫ at 250,000₫, 980,000₫ at 490,000₫, and so on. Promotional pricing changes, so check the listing rather than this article.

Worth knowing

✂️ Agree the cut before it starts — with or without a language in common, a photo on your phone does more than a description. 🧏 Ear cleaning is normal here and priced separately, 80,000–250,000₫ across these shops. If you don’t want it, say so at the start; it’s often bundled into the “full service”. 💸 Combos beat à la carte at the barbershops — Quê Hương’s shave-and-wash at 200,000₫ is the clearest example. 🕙 Late options exist — Seoul and the Busan branches run to 22:00, Nailbylyn to 22:30, Bubble Wash to 23:30. Most others close by 20:00. 🔁 Discounted prices are promotions — several listings show a struck-through price. Treat the lower number as current, not permanent.
