If you’re at Holiday Plaza in Johor Bahru and want to freshen up your look, you’ll be glad to know that REDS Hair Salon in KSL City Mall is just around the corner, uh quite literally.
The two malls sit in the same Taman Century area, making it a short hop by foot, Grab, bus, or car. So if you’re confused about the directions or tired of typing “hair salon ksl near me”, we got you covered.
1: Walking (Most Direct)
Walking from Holiday Plaza to KSL City Mall is simple and safe, mainly because it’s very close, making it the go-to choice for locals and light travellers.

- Landmarks: Along the way, you’ll see Holiday Villa Johor Bahru City Centre (just opposite KSL) and plenty of small eateries and shops in Taman Century.
If you’re planning a longer JB day trip, you can even combine stops. Many visitors explore nearby malls like Plaza Pelangi first before heading across to KSL for a haircut at REDS.

Nearby Landmarks for Drivers: The drive takes you past Grand Paragon Hotel and Holiday Villa JBCC before you hit Jalan Seladang.
4: Public Bus (myBAS F100)
Budget travellers and locals often use the myBAS F100, which links JB Sentral ↔ Holiday Plaza ↔ KSL City Mall ↔ Holiday Plaza.
- Stops: From JB Sentral, you can alight at Holiday Plaza (Jalan Dato Sulaiman) or directly at KSL City Mall (Jalan Seladang).
- Timings: First bus 08:00, last bus 22:40, runs every 20 minutes.
- Fares: Around RM1.40–2.10, depending on distance.
Important: On Mondays after 3 pm, the F100 boards from the KSL basement (near KFC/Pizza Hut) instead of the main entrance due to the KSL night market closure. Keep this in mind!
