I found out about this place from my mom. She started going here, loved it, and I tried it out on her recommendation.
This place is conveniently located near the north entrance of the St.Albert mall. They accept drop ins -
there are usually a few hairdressers available at any given time (4 or so). However, I generally prefer to make an appointment since my hair usually takes a long time.
I've been here a few times between 2 different hairdressers. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the work they do here. My hair is very long and thick. I usually hold my breath and hope for the best when someone new tries to tackle it. It's not unusual for someone to take more than 3-4 hours to do a cut and color for me. Generally a hairdresser needs patience, time, and skill to do a good job.
My hairdresser Rich does an excellent job! So far I've had 2 haircuts with him. He takes his time and you can tell that he's got an artistic side. I've always enjoyed fun hairstyles. I love trying different colors and styles. I know my hair grows fairly quickly so I don't fuss on any particular haircut. However, the quality of the work Rich provides is top notch! My previous haircut he did blond, caramel and dark brown ombré style to my black hair. This past weekend he added wispy layers to my shoulder length hair and then added blond and caramel highlights. Honestly I couldn't be more satisfied.
I've forked over $200+ for my past 2 visits. My hair is a challenge for most hairdressers-a definite test in endurance. I don't mind paying a lot if the job is well done. I waited 3 months between my previous haircut/color and the visit I just had this last Saturday. My plan is to go in November to touch up my roots. I'm not sure about the other hairdressers but my experience with 2 from this salon have been wonderful! read more
