Urban Ocean

Urban Ocean, a hair salon in Causeway Bay, Wan Chai, is at 香港島銅鑼灣謝斐道506號3樓. Before heading over it is worth checking the hours, phone number and Google rating below, so the trip is not wasted. This is an upstairs shop: the way in is usually through the building lobby rather than from the street, so check the building name, floor and unit before you go and allow a few minutes for the lift.

Hair, beauty and massage salons are best booked ahead, especially at weekends and before festivals such as Lunar New Year. Ask for the price before you start, as some treatments cost more depending on hair length or products; read the terms carefully before buying a prepaid package and consider whether the shop is likely to stay in business. The weeks before Lunar New Year are the busiest for salons, as many people traditionally get a haircut before the new year, so book early.

Opening hours: Mon–Wed 11:00–20:30, Thu–Fri 11:00–21:00, Sat–Sun 11:00–20:30. It is open seven days a week. Many small businesses close for a few days around Lunar New Year and may shut early or not open during typhoons and black rainstorms, so check the latest news before you set off. You can call 2568 6849; a phone call is the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or how to get there. More information is on its website, facebook.com.

It has a Google rating of 4.7 out of 5 from 136 reviews, a strong score that points to consistently positive experiences.

Causeway Bay is part of the Wan Chai District on Hong Kong Island. The island is steep, with many streets climbing the hillside; the Central–Mid-Levels escalator links Central with the Mid-Levels and the Peak Tram runs up to The Peak. Offices, malls and old neighbourhood shops sit side by side, restaurants are packed at the office lunch hour (roughly 13:00–14:00), and with parking scarce the MTR, tram or bus is usually easier than driving. Causeway Bay is packed with malls and department stores and is very crowded at weekends; nearby Victoria Park hosts the Lunar New Year fair.
