“From precision cuts to gloss treatments, discover 2025’s most-booked NRI salon trends exclusively at MYRAH Santacruz.”
The New NRI Salon Ritual in 2025
For many NRIs, trips to India have always meant family, festivals, and food. In 2025, there’s another essential on the itinerary: a luxury salon visit at MYRAH Santacruz. Between reunions, weddings, brunches, and business meetings, global Indians are now blocking out time for precision haircuts, gloss-enhancing colour, scalp rituals, soft-glam makeup, and immaculate hands & feet.
They want to look and feel like the best version of themselves in every photograph, at every gathering-and they expect international standards of quality, hygiene, and design. MYRAH delivers exactly that: a refined, time-smart salon experience that feels familiar, luxurious, and effortlessly current.
Why NRIs Are Choosing MYRAH Santacruz
In 2025, NRIs aren’t just searching for “a quick haircut” when they visit Mumbai; they’re looking for a beauty partner who understands global lifestyles, local climates, and tight travel schedules.
MYRAH sits perfectly at this intersection. The hair and beauty menus are curated, not crowded. Services are designed to show visible results in a single sitting, yet fit neatly between a lunch with family and an evening event. With dedicated categories for Hair Care, Davines Treatments, Beauty, Hands & Feet, Makeup, Bridal, and Men, the experience feels structured yet deeply personalised.
Trend #1: Glossy, Low-Maintenance Hair Colour
NRIs in 2025 are leaning towards colour that looks expensive, not obvious. They want hair that shines in natural light, photographs beautifully at indoor functions, and grows out gracefully when they’re back abroad.
At MYRAH Santacruz, this translates to services like Root Touch-Up and Ammonia Free Root Touch-Up for seamless regrowth, Global Hair Colour and Ammonia Free Global Hair Colour for all-over refinement, and dimensional techniques such as Highlights and Balayage to sculpt light with subtlety.
Colour is rarely performed alone. NRIs often pair their session with strengthening boosters like K18 Molecular Repair Treatment, OLAPLEX Express Treatment, OLAPLEX Luxury Treatment, or a sensorial L’Oreal Hair Spa to ensure tone and texture both meet global standards.
Trend #2: Power Cuts & Signature Blowdries
A second clear trend: the “power cut” that works in both Indian and international contexts. NRIs are requesting haircuts that look polished at a brunch in Mumbai and still feel relevant in New York, London, Dubai, or Singapore.
MYRAH stylists use the Hair Cut service as the starting point-studying face shape, texture, and lifestyle to design cuts that fall into place with minimal effort. For events and everyday glamour, guests rely heavily on Wash & Blowdry for bounce and shine, Flat Iron Dry for sleek minimalism, Wash & Tongs for structured waves, and Hair Wash & Blast Dry as a quick, elevated refresh.
Where a sharper finish is needed, Hair Styling adds finesse-soft updos, polished ponytails, glossy bends-adapted to necklines, jewellery, and occasion.
Trend #3: Scalp Wellness with Davines Treatments
In 2025, NRIs are far more aware of scalp health and its impact on hair quality. Between frequent flights, climate changes, and water differences, many arrive with complaints of dryness, dullness, or seasonal hair fall.
MYRAH’s Davines Treatments have become a go-to category for this new wave of “root-first” care. Express rituals like Minu Express Treatment, NouNou Express Treatment, Momo Express Treatment, and Love Smooth Express Treatment target colour brilliance, nourishment, hydration, and smoothness in shorter appointments.
Scalp-focused Express options such as Renewing Express Treatment, Energising Express Treatment, Nourishing Express Treatment, Purifying Express Treatment, and Calming Express Treatment support sensitive, congested, or stressed scalps.
For deeper, more transformative results, NRIs are booking Luxury protocols: OI Absolute Beauty & Hydrating Luxury Treatment, Renewing Luxury Treatment, Nourishing Luxury Treatment (Dry Scalp), Nourishing Luxury Treatment (Very Dry & Damaged Hair), Purifying Luxury Treatment, Energising Hair Thickening Treatment, Energising Hair Loss (Hormonal) Luxury Treatment, and Energising Hair Loss (Seasonal) Luxury Treatment.
Trend #4: Soft-Glam, High-Definition Makeup
NRIs in 2025 are asking for makeup that is “photo-flattering but not heavy.” The preference is for luminous skin, precise but softly blended eyes, and lips that complement rather than dominate.
At MYRAH, Makeup (on consultation) means every look starts with a conversation-about event type, outfit palette, undertone, and comfort level. For daytime events, artists lean toward sheer bases, subtle sculpting, and lightly defined eyes. For evenings and receptions, the dial turns up: more depth on the eyes, bolder lips, and enhanced longevity without heaviness.
NRIs often pair makeup with the Beauty essentials-Threading for defined brows, Waxing for a smooth canvas, and delicate Bleach for softened tone-so the finished look feels clean, refined, and editorially neat.
Trend #5: Minimal, Immaculate Hands & Feet
With so many photographs capturing rings, glasses, and gestures, NRIs have made manicures and pedicures non-negotiable. The aesthetic: clean, polished, and timeless rather than overly elaborate.
MYRAH’s Hands & Feet menu reflects this preference. Basic Manicure and Basic Pedicure ensure neatness and freshness, while Luxury Manicure and Luxury Pedicure offer spa-level indulgence before key occasions.
For those who prefer crisp simplicity, Basic Cut, File, and Polish delivers a quick upgrade; for classic elegance, French Cut, File, and Polish is a consistent favourite. Guests with multiple events often opt for Gel Polish to ensure long-wear shine that survives flights, functions, and days of celebration.
Trend #6: Bridal Looks Curated for Global Lifestyles
NRI weddings in India come with multi-day functions, global guest lists, and camera crews capturing everything. MYRAH’s
Bridal offerings-Basic Bridal Package and Advanced Bridal Package-have become go-to choices for brides flying in from overseas.
The focus is on timeless elegance rather than trends that date quickly: hair that holds yet moves, makeup that looks flawless in 4K and in person, and details that align with both traditional attire and contemporary silhouettes. NRIs appreciate the way MYRAH integrates hair, makeup, and hands & feet into a coherent aesthetic that feels beautifully “them.”
Trend #7: Men’s Grooming with a Global Edge
Another strong 2025 trend: NRI men investing in polished grooming that quietly elevates their presence. At MYRAH Santacruz, the Men category offers exactly that.
Men’s Hair Cut refines structure; Men’s Blow Dry offers control and shape; Men’s Global Hair Colour and Men’s Highlights discreetly enhance tone without looking overdone. Men’s Beard services define lines and symmetry for a clean, modern outline.
For scalp and hair health, Men’s Spa introduces a sensorial dimension-stress relief, hydration, and a feeling of composure that pairs well with the demands of high-profile travel and events.
How NRIs Can Plan Their 2025 MYRAH Visits
With itineraries often packed, NRIs benefit from planning their salon sessions alongside flights and events. A useful approach:
Begin by exploring the services overview and then diving into focused menus like Hair Care, Davines Treatments, Beauty, Hands & Feet, Makeup, Bridal, and Men.
To align visits with social calendars, NRIs can open a conversation through the contact page. The team at MYRAH helps sequence services so that hair, skin, and grooming peak precisely when it matters most.
Where Luxury and Familiarity Meet for Global Indians
In 2025, hair and beauty for NRIs are no longer an afterthought during India visits-they’re a central, considered part of the journey. MYRAH Santacruz has become a trusted stop on that journey: a place where international expectations are met with local warmth, and where every look is tailored to life across continents.
Whether you’re stepping into a wedding, a reunion, or simply a long-awaited evening with family, MYRAH ensures one thing: you walk in as yourself and walk out as your most polished, confident version-ready for every camera, every conversation, and every memory you’re about to create.
