In the rest of this page we explain the character of the area, why that matters for a salon visit, how to get there, and the full method for choosing well anywhere in Pristina.

To be honest from the start: our verified data does not tie other salons to this micro-neighborhood. There are many salons in Pristina, but reliable public information about which one sits exactly in Muharrem Fejza or Mati 1 does not exist for most of them. So on this page we name only B&B Elegance, because for that one we know with certainty that it is here. For any other name we point you to our city-wide list, where we gather the salons that genuinely stand out. That way we give you no invented addresses and no promises we cannot keep.

What kind of neighborhood Muharrem Fejza and Mati 1 are

Muharrem Fejza is a residential neighborhood of Pristina, near the area known as Mati 1. It is a part of the city made up mostly of apartment blocks and family homes, away from the tourist center with its cafes and offices. That is its real identity: a place where people live, not a place they pass through for the day. Once you understand that, you also understand why a salon visit here feels different from one in the middle of town.

Away from the center means a few practical things. Traffic is calmer and the streets are less choked. Getting there by car is simpler, and parking is usually easier than near the main square, where every spot is taken. For someone arriving with children, someone short on time, or someone who simply does not want to hunt for parking for half an hour, that calm has real value. It is not a cosmetic detail. It is part of why many people choose a neighborhood salon even when they live somewhere else.

There is another, less visible side that ties into quality. A salon in a residential area away from casual foot traffic does not survive on people who happen to walk past the window. It is kept alive by customers who come back and by word of mouth that circulates in the neighborhood. When the work depends on reputation and on a clientele that repeats, standards tend to stay high, because a bad job travels fast in a small circle of people who know each other. This is no automatic guarantee, but it is a healthy dynamic that often works in the customer’s favor.

This kind of salon also has a different rhythm of work. When the stylist knows your hair from earlier visits, you do not start from zero every time. She knows how your color behaves, how quickly your roots show, what you liked last time and what you did not. That continuity is hard to find in a place where someone new greets you at every visit. In a neighborhood like Muharrem Fejza, where people stay for years in the same buildings, the bond between customer and salon builds naturally and lasts.

B&B Elegance, the salon of this neighborhood

B&B Elegance sits on Rr. Jakov Xoxa, in Muharrem Fejza, near the Mati 1 area. It is a family salon run by mother and daughter. Besire works the hair and has more than twenty years of experience in the trade. That experience counts for a lot when it comes to cuts that suit the shape of your face, coloring that does not damage the hair, and understanding what the customer really wants even when she cannot put it in technical terms. Biondina, the daughter, handles the facial treatments. That means at the same place you can have your hair done and a skin treatment in the same visit, which in Pristina is less common than you might think, because many salons do only hair or only facials.

This split of roles between two people who have worked together for years is part of the value. You are not dealing with a chain where one person greets you today and another tomorrow, but with the same two hands that know your hair from visit to visit. The fact that it is mother and daughter also brings a personal responsibility to the work: the family name stands behind every service, and that shows in the care given to detail. The salon also does hair and makeup for brides and for events, so if you have a wedding, an engagement, or a family celebration, you can plan everything in one place, with your hair and face prepared by the same team you already know. B&B Elegance is known for prices among the most reasonable in the market, which for a residential area like this makes sense: the clientele is local and steady, not touristic, so the relationship is built on lasting value rather than inflated prices for a single visit.

Hours run Monday to Saturday, from 9:00 to 17:00, and the salon is closed on Sunday. That matters for planning: if you work during the day, Saturdays are in demand and it is worth booking early. Booking is done by WhatsApp or Viber message, with no complicated online system. The full details, what the salon does best, and the contact information are on the B&B Elegance profile.

How to get there and why the trip is worth it

In Pristina people do not orient by street number, but by landmark, and that holds here too. Head toward the Mati 1 area and Rr. Jakov Xoxa in the Muharrem Fejza neighborhood. The surest way not to wander is to send a message ahead, ask for the nearest landmark, and get directions straight from the salon. This is normal practice in the city and no one finds it strange. On the contrary, a short message ahead makes the day easier for both sides, because the salon knows you are coming and you know your appointment is waiting.

If you live in the center or somewhere else and you wonder why you would make the trip to a residential neighborhood, the reason is the combination we described. You get hair and facial treatments in the same place, from two experienced people who work together, at reasonable prices, in an area where getting there and parking are easier than in the middle of town. For members of the diaspora who return over the summer or around New Year, this is especially convenient: one well-planned visit can cover hair and face before a family event, without dealing with center-city traffic. The short trip often saves more time than it costs.

How to choose a good salon in this area

Our method for choosing holds anywhere in Pristina, here included. We have laid it out fully in the guide on how to choose a hairdresser, but here is the short version for this area.

Start with the work, not the decor. Ask for real photos of finished jobs, ideally taken in the salon and not pulled from the internet. On hair, look at how the roots come out in coloring and how natural the transition looks in a balayage. On facial treatments, look at the skin before and after, not only the pretty photos. A salon that has worked for years in a neighborhood usually has a long track record you can look through.

Then judge the communication. The way a salon answers your first message tells you a lot. A clear reply that asks what you want and gives you a real time is a good sign. Late or vague replies are a signal to watch. Here a neighborhood salon often has an advantage, because it handles a more controlled number of customers and has time to listen to you.

Always look for hygiene and order. Clean tools, fresh towels, a tidy space. These are not a luxury, they are the minimum. And finally, ask for a short consultation before big services like coloring or balayage. An experienced stylist tells you what is achievable with your hair and what is not, instead of promising everything. To understand more deeply what separates a good salon from an average one, see our quality guide.

One last tip for choosing in a neighborhood: do not underestimate the word of the people who live there. In a residential area like Muharrem Fejza, where people know each other, the opinion of a neighbor or a colleague who has gone to the same salon for years is worth more than ten anonymous comments online. If someone you know has hair or skin you like, ask where they go. That kind of recommendation comes from real experience, not advertising, and in a market where salons rarely have websites, it remains the most trustworthy source.

Booking, payment, and timing

Booking in this area works as it does across all of Pristina. There is no online booking. The appointment is set by phone call or, more often, by WhatsApp and Viber message. That means the relationship starts with a direct conversation, so write clearly what you want, give a day and a time that suit you, and ask how long the service takes. For services that take time, like coloring or balayage, it is better to set an appointment early in the morning or at the start of the week, when the salon is quieter.

Payment is cash, in euro. Card payment is not guaranteed at every salon, so if you want to pay by card, ask ahead. Keep enough cash on you for the service you have planned.

As for timing, keep the season in mind. Over the summer, when the diaspora returns, and around New Year, salons are busier. The same holds for wedding season, when hair and makeup for brides and guests take up much of the schedule. If you have an event in these periods, book as early as you can. For guidance on specific prices by service, see our price guide.

Prices in context

Prices in Muharrem Fejza move within the same ranges as the rest of Pristina, and all of them are noticeably lower than in the west. A simple cut starts from a few euros. Event hair and makeup usually runs 45 to 100 euros, depending on complexity and how many people are involved. Balayage varies by hair length and thickness, usually 70 to 200 euros. These are market ranges, not the price of a single salon, and they serve only as orientation.

B&B Elegance is known for prices among the most reasonable in the market, which fits the character of the area. In a residential neighborhood where the clientele keeps coming back, a salon does not earn from inflated prices for a single visit, but from trust built over time. If you want to compare salons for hair or for facial treatments across the whole city, start from the list of the best salons in Pristina, the best hairdressers, and the salons for facial treatments. That way you see for yourself where a neighborhood salon like B&B Elegance stands against the bigger names of the center, and decide with your own eyes.
