In Düsseltal, a residential area in Düsseldorf, Germany, Bailas Contemporary Coiffure is a modern hair salon located within an old building that was restored in 2012. Betty und Betty designed the cozy 44-square-meter (approx. 474-square-foot) salon by sectioning it off for various functions that require different light, space, and moods.

The salon offers areas for consultations, styling and washing chairs, a desk for color mixing, and a retail area. The interior design features black and anthracite elements, along with wood details giving it a warm and tranquil feel. The details are kept minimal lending to the salon’s timeless look. The display shelves are made of black piping, which helps showcase the Shu Uemura products better.
