Laser hair removal clinic Riyadh by istanbul123
Hi, Does anyone know if there are laser hair removal clinics in Riaydh and where they are. Also, are they female only or are they clinics for males also? thank you Babur
Try Kaya Skin Care Clinic. They do laser hair removal & a lot of their doctors are men, so I guess, they do allow men too. I drove past it once or twice, but don't remember the exact adress. Google them & check out their website. It looks great... Read More

With regards to hospitals & the delivery of your baby in Riyadh, there should be nothing to worry about. Hospitals facilities & the staff are generally top notch here. Having your parents come over shouldn't be a problem either. I have looked into ... Read More

Hoping to make some friends & learn Arabic by Tisch
Hi Everyone I am fairly new here in Riyadh & I'd like to know where I could possibly learn conversational Arabic? I'd also like to know what other ladies do here for fun & to make friends? Any info would be awesome, thanks :)
Thanks everyone I'm hoping to attend some classes though, I realise this will have to be with a woman (as it's Saudi). I'm wondering though what else the women get up to other than going to malls. I've been to most of the malls now, & although I ... Read More
