Affinity has helped people look and feel their best since 1992. This is how a much-loved Delhi salon became a brand opening a new salon every month.
Affinity is more than a salon; it is a pilgrimage for the discerning. We are dedicated to crafting transformative experiences that elevate the human spirit.
Our philosophy
Affinity began as an affordable-luxury salon serving clients from all walks of life. That promise has not changed: every stylist is trained rigorously, our partnerships with international trainers and high-end brands keep our teams on the latest techniques, and every visit is built around how you want to feel when you leave.

Vinit Dua
A born entrepreneur, Mr. Dua made his mark early across construction, interiors and high-end hospitality. His takeover of Affinity marked a new era for the brand, redefining its approach to service, satisfaction and sanity, and introducing a work culture that values patrons and employees alike.
I was associated with the brand for a long time. I was an old Affinity client myself.

Siddhanth Dua
A Modern School, Vasant Vihar alumnus and Temple University graduate, Siddhanth worked as a project manager in the US before returning to India after the pandemic. He leads operations, Affinity’s proprietary tech platform and the expansion into new cities.
To understand the business, you have to go through every aspect of it. I still learn something new every day.
