    NOTE: I can't say I recognize any of the staff members in the photos that have been uploaded, but I will simply review my experience during the summer of 2014. I walked in to the shop on weekday, seeing that it was clean, was moderately busy and was fairly well kept. The clerk at the desk was happy to make a booking for the following day. When I came back, the clerk greeted me warmly and asked me if I wanted a tea. She gave me a steaming mug of green tea, which was a pleasant way to start my visit. During the weekdays, I could see that the majority of clients are older ladies. I could also see the staff work hard and everyone is always happily chatting with their clients. In between their clients, staff are also cleaning up and keeping the shop orderly. They were even professionally dressed and you could see that there was a dress code (business casual and black). My hairdresser, Amy, was very considerate and washed my hair to start. She even asked me how I wanted my hair blown dry. I was unaware that there were different options, being someone who has liked my simple straight hair and never wanted anything different. She listened to my requests and gave me exactly what I wanted. She even gave me a helpful shopping tip for my sister's wedding! I left a generous tip for my hairdresser and was also happy to pick up a bottle of KMS Silk Sheen (I'd lost my previous bottle). I'd go back if I wanted something fancier, although I feel $50 for a basic wash, cut and dry is fairly steep. I believe they focus on speciality cuts but are happy to receive a wide range of clients.

    Before I had the coor correction 1st time

    Sadly the worst experiences are the most memorable. I have gone here a few times for my hair and have had pleasant experiences but the last time left me feeling much to be desired. I had my hair colour corrected by Kristy previously, who did an amazing job at that appt, we discussed next steps for my, hair she advised I'd only need to come back to do root baby lites and some foils to lighten the existing blonde and it would cost less as there would be no colour correction involved, perfect! I booked this appt several months later and explained what I would need (appt was over a week out but she is worth the wait). I was called the day prior with notice that Kristy would not have time to do my cut/colour and that another stylist would, I said it was OK, but really it's not as I had booked this appt at least a week before that and if the chosen slot was not appropriate just rebook ... simple! I show up for my appt and am told again about her not having enough time for cut and style, I obliged as I was already told this. Kristy balyaged my hair which was a different technique than prior but I trust her, and sign a waiver to have my hair rebleached as I wanted it cooler and not as golden...it had gotten brassy and golden..should be simple right to lighten existing bleach? My hair took a long time to do 3-4 hrs to be exact, once she washed my hair I was asked to pay as it was closing time, the service was $350 (same price I paid for colour correction with trim and style the previous time). I sat down in her chair after paying and she started to dry my hair and asked me if I was going to wear it up? At this point I asked her if she was not going to cut and style my hair to which she replied "no" and that it was late and closing time (I was told someone else would cut and style not that I's be leaving with wet hair), I was so upset at this point to pay 350 for balyage on already light hair and to be leaving with half wet hair. To me its important to have your ends trimmed after processing especially twice within 6 months, my hair has a lot of damage (my doing) and I obviously needed a cut. I voice my concern and Kristy agrees to finish the work but I could see she was upset, her and another girl (think its the owners daughter) do my hair quickly and I was a lot happier but paid another 50 for this. So in total I spent 400 on my hair this day which was more than a colour correction for dark hair with cut and style! I love Kristy she is a really sweet girl but at this moment I felt really taken advantage of. I called to book an appt for a colour correction for my sis despite my bad experience and was told she'd need to send pics so they would know how long the appt should be I was told I needed to pay $100 deposit to book as well this has never happened before but I suspect there is a note on my file. I called the York Mills location and was given a sooner appt for my sis no deposit and they booked only based on my explanation of what was needed. I was going to rebook with Kristy as well but decided not to and also booked for York Mills. I won't be returning to DBK at Lawrence and will not recommend to anyone again. I know I am giving my money to the same company but thats OK hopefully better more deserving people!

Rachel is clearly fulfilling her calling and following her passion.

After some persuasion, I agreed to have a makeover done during one of the 'ladies' nights' that a friend of mine had organized. Rachel Renna was the makeup artist that they had hired for the evening. It didn't take long for me to figure out that Rachel is no ordinary makeup artist. She is the next big thing (mark my words). She is one of the most talented artists I have ever come across, and that's including all the encounters I've had with makeup artists throughout my TV career. The thing about Rachel is that she just 'gets' her clients' style. She had one look at me and knew exactly what I would love and what I would hate. Above and beyond that, she handles a brush like no one I've met before. The way she builds, the way she blends, the way she shapes brows... OH MY! The truth is, my words cannot do Rachel's talent justice. She is the best there is when it comes to makeup artistry (I've attached the pictures to prove it) and it wont be long before she becomes an industry leader. You better get in on this while you still can because now that the word is officially out, her waiting list just got a helluvah lot longer.

    For my (new) husband and I, one of the biggest factors we were looking for when searching for…read morewedding vendors was responsiveness. You could hire the fanciest stylist and most well-known makeup artist in Toronto, but what if they take 10 days to reply to your email or only give you the time of day a week before your wedding? That might not be a problem to some couples, but it was to us. It actually took awhile for us to find a makeup artist in Toronto who a) didn't have certain demands regarding travel, packages, etc., b) didn't take 5 days to respond to us, c) actually showed genuine compassion and interest in their work and craft, and for their client. I met Daniela a few months before our wedding, and knew she was the one! Out of over 20 makeup artists in Toronto that I contacted, she was the only one who suggested an in-person meeting to talk about my wedding. Honestly, I can't even express how much I appreciated that. She came to our meeting prepared, actually took the time to take notes and understand what I'd be wearing, the look and style I was going for, etc. I knew from the very start that, with Daniela, I was in very good, talented, and responsible hands. And as a bride, trust in your vendor is so key - and I trusted Daniela fully! On our wedding day, Daniela came early and prepared, and was totally unfazed when my mom changed her mind about what she wanted. She is the epitome of creativity, talent, and professionalism. And most importantly - I loved the look she gave me on our wedding day! She can do so many types of looks, and can totally diversify if you ask her to. Show her a picture of what you want - and she'll replicate it. She is so incredibly talented, and you absolutely can't go wrong with choosing her to do your makeup, for whatever occasion, wedding or otherwise! Thank you so much, Daniela, for being a part of our wedding day! Her service is an experience beyond 5 stars.

My make-up looked beautiful and I had loads of compliments about it all day. Daniela even gave me my own tube of touch-up gloss to go, so that I could keep myself looking fresh all day. She has a great set up with fabulous lighting and she did my make-up in a beautiful, natural look. She's also a very warm person and great conversationalist, even managed to make me forget I was getting married in several hours and I felt quite calm after. Thanks Daniela!!

I've…read moreworn my makeup many different ways, but there was always a consistency in how I placed my liner for optimal effect. One day, I ran into a friend and after complimenting her on her eye makeup, she revealed to me that it was permanent tattoo artistry. I absolutely loved the effect and also the idea of not having to spend time and money on my makeup routine any longer! Dorothy Kizoff has pioneered this industry in Toronto and I wouldn't let anyone do this for me, except her. She is absolutely magical- skilled hands and a true artist's eye. 3 years later, I'm still loving my permanent makeup, and it hasn't changed in appearance since the day it was done. She is fantastic, and I'd recommend her to everyone and anyone.

Dorothy had retired by the time I needed the service again for another touch up in 2019, however I saw her niece, Stephanie, and she did a very nice job on my brows and made them look fresh again. My eyeliner has been great since 2006 so I have never had to have it done again. It was time for another refresh and I could not find Stephanie again so I went to a local place that changed the shape of my brows and microbladed / powdered over the originals. I'm really sorry I did that... bit of a disaster - I almost have a unibrow. Now I have to wait for them to heal and then will reach out to Stephanie again to get it corrected. From other reviews it seems that some people are not happy with their results. That has not been my experience.
