    I really don't want to write this review. I reached out to the stylist privately, but the issue was not resolved. Let me start out by saying that I did a few things wrong on my end. I asked the person that called to confirm my appt what the ballpark amount was for a haircut and all over colour. She said $115, so I was expecting maybe $150 before tip max. The stylist informed me that my total was going to be $194 and I should have asked for an itemized receipt right then and there. I have issues with social interaction and being confrontational, but that is my problem - not theirs. I asked for an itemized receipt while my hair was processing and saw that I was being charged $45 for them to fill my blonde highlights. I had blonde in the front and two chunky highlights on the top layer of my hair. The $45 was a result of them taking 53% off of a full all over colour. On top of that, I was being charged $30 for extra product. I spoke to the stylist and said that didn't seem fair as the blonde they had to cover was much less than 1/2 a head. She doubled down and then when a manager was brought over, they ended up taking $20 off. I arrived at the salon at 1pm for my 1:15pm appt, and I did not leave until 4:50pm. I told her at about 3:30pm that I needed to leave to get to work by 5pm. Once it got to 4:40 and I was not done, I asked if I could just blow dry my hair myself and pay and leave. I ended up putting my damp hair in a Toque and walking 3 blocks to work. She had completed the cut and colour, but I did not have time for a blow dry. I was also extremely uncomfortable after I had to "complain" about the price. I also had to tell the stylist that I didn't like small talk and would just prefer to read my book because she kept asking me about Christmas, which is a hard time for me, and then when I answered one word answers, she asked me the same exact question about Christmas plans later. I am socially awkward and have a very hard time sitting down for long periods of time. I did not think that a bob haircut and all over brown colour on hair that was already mostly brown would take 4 hours. While she was washing my colour out, I had to keep myself from crying. It was just such an embarrassing situation. I wanted to treat myself to a nice salon experience, but I honestly just shouldn't have. Since I left with damp hair, I didn't see the final result until I was at work. The haircut is extremely uneven in the front and my blonde highlights that I paid extra for them to fill are still noticeable. I messaged the stylist on instagram to ask how to fix the situation, and she told me that she would fix it if I paid $10 for product. Absolutely not. I explained why I didn't think that was reasonable, and she told me to have a nice day. I tipped her $40 on my $180 service as the whole interaction was probably uncomfortable for her as a newer stylist - but I really shouldn't have. Just an overall bad experience through and through. I will stay away from salons for a while but I would urge you to not go to this one - especially if you're neurodivergent like I am.

    If you're looking to get your hair cut for somewhere mid-range, the Aveda Academy Salon is the place to go. You get the quality haircut you would get from a good salon, but pay half the price. This is because all their stylists are in training. So if you're only comfortable with high-end professionals doing your hair, this may not be the place for you. That being said, you can always ask for one of their senior students instead. I was pretty happy with my stylist, who was very particular with her work and took care to ask me what I wanted along the way. You also receive complimentary tea and a head massage before they begin cutting your hair. The massage includes one of their hair treatment products, and its soothing scent instantly relaxes you. That's not something you often get from a normal salon, is it? The Aveda Academy Salon offers all hairstyling services, from basic cuts to colouring. If you go, be sure to make an appointment, as they don't accept walk-ins.

But TJ said that he understand what I am talking about and he said that I will not have that problem at this time.

But after I washed my hair and didn't do styling my haircut looks awful, I have the same problem (second shorter line on my right side and also in the back it was not looks good as well. I decided to go back and ask for refund, because I am not satisfied with that. When I came and tried to explain TJ getting very angry and rude. He said I did very good hair cut to you and he didn't want to listen to me and he said he will not refund me money and he force me to leave and started call security. i was very disappointed and he humiliating me in front of coworker and clients, he even didn't want to talk to me. I don't think I deserve that Hairdresser treat me with no respect. I paid for his service and I think I deserve to show him and explain if I don't satisfied what he did. When I asked him to show me professional license and certificate he also refused. I asked what is his real name and he said to me Prince Charles. I' be got most unprofessional service and very rude hairdresser who's got the money and doesn't care about anything after. He kick me out from salon and two security men help him. He said one of them was his friend. I didn't make any big scandal I just came to talk. I am going to file consumer complain and complain at BBB, because nobody deserve be treated like that. You and your business depend on clients and make yours customers happy is your first priority, Prince Charles!!!!! I also mentioned that most of his clients are men's and I think he was not able to do stylish haircut for women because he is a barber, not stylist. Sorr, but I've got that impression. Very disappointed, unsatisfied, humiliated, sad. Not recommend.

    Continues to be so consistent. Always seems to get me in quickly and never makes me feel like he's…read morerushing to move on to the next person. If you are in the market for a new barber/ hair dresser give TJ here a shot. He is fantastic!

I really appreciated that the stylist I came to see noticed some flaws in the cut I had previously received and helped me towards fixing the error in the future, although it would take a bit of growth to correct. She also sounded like she'd help you get the look you want, but would advise you against things that would really damage your hair, which I completely respect.
