My hairstylist was mia , she gave me a cut and blowout. I was really pleased with the out come, she explained my hair type and told me she can do beach waves on my hair. I never curled or did waves because I didn't think my hair would take to it but I was so happy with the outcome. It was a clean and calm vibe with Mia and I loved my hair cut. read more

I went to this place because when I googled the best place for extensions in Toronto, it's what came up. It's pretty accessible (1) because it's at Yonge and Eglinton and (2) because it's open outside normal business hours and pretty accommodating of appointments. I figured why not give it a try. I had to reschedule a bunch of times because of life and illness and whatnot and the staff I dealt with for rescheduling was so patient and kind. I felt like an ass since that's not how I usually operate but life was hectic and my attempt to make and even confirm my appointment seemed to be a casualty of that. I even confirmed the appointment reminder they sent 2 days prior just 15 minutes before my appointment (DO NOT DO THIS!), which caused some confusion but they still managed to see me. What impressed me right off the bat, other than the kindness of everyone in this place and the obvious cleanliness of the salon, was that I walked in wanting extensions. I said I didn't care about anything - I just hated my hair's current length and wanted it long. The stylist I met with took one look at me, disheveled and with my hair thrown in a bun, and said "how much maintenance/styling do you currently do?" She clocked my lazy girl styling as soon as I walked in and while she could have just agreed and ordered extensions, which are more expensive, she actually took the time to understand what I didn't like about my hair and my habits. She suggested a haircut might actually make me happier and I should try that first since extensions are a lot of upkeep and I would basically be committing myself to 100% effort for styling versus the maybe 10% I currently do. I immediately booked a haircut with her. I returned and she was just as kind and actually showed me how I could style my hair, give me advise for tools and products to get, etc. I walked out feeling like a million bucks. I now can actually somewhat style my hair, and I am going to be booking another cut shortly. This service is top notch and I hope to make this my go-to hairdresser!! read more

Got a balayage/highlight here two days ago. Took three hours to do which was no problem since I expected as such. Booked an appointment to which includes a consultation at the same time. They highly recommend doing the consultation on a previous day. The drink service and delicious buttered popcorn was wonderful. Kaitlan did my hair and she was extremely pleasant as I've historically encountered a lot of judgemental ppl. The second half is done by an amateur. I didn't like the hair rinse too much as water kept getting in my ears but not too large of a deal and the blow-dry was just that. Straight blow. Felt she could have been more serviceable. As for the most important part, the result. It just hasn't grown on me. I feel I ended up with a weird caramel color and matches the color of my skin tone oddly. Im Asian and feel possibly not their norm of clientele. The hair colour result just doesnt jive with me. Cost $250 all in, just color, no scissors at all. An added cut cost 90$ starting. As side note, my hair is black, predyed, midlength, 30s. read more

I came here for hair dying. I saw one of the pictures posted here and really like the coloring. I had to come here twice for them to get it right. The first time the girl who did my hair didn't do the color right, instead of copper, she did pinkish red and instead of highlights I got half of my hair in white while the other in red. It was very bad especially considering that I was paying $200 plus tax for it (and plus tip). Also instead of 1,5-2 hours suggested by her at first, it took over 3 hours and I wasn't prepared for it and was hungry and exhausted after that. I called the next day and complained and got it rescheduled for a free redo with the guy who actually did the original coloring I saw on the picture attached to their yelp profile. Chris did a good job as he knew exactly was he was going. I was very happy with the coloring! I will attach the pics to show. Also this place has a great customer service with tea/coffee/water offered and even popcorn. Great addition to the experience. read more

Fantastic! I am so pleased I found this salon. I hadn't dyed my hair or been into a salon since the beginning of Covid. I finally decided to bite the bullet and return to the world of beautiful hair. LOL I did some research on all the different salons in the area and was drawn to this one. Nicola was my colourist and she did a fantastic job. During the pre consultation we figured out what solution would be to keep my grown base. Nichola used two different highlight colours so I would not have to come back too often, keeping my hair looking good as it grows in. I must say the work was unbelievable. The highlights are so understated and natural. I would recommend Nicola to anybody's home needs colourist advice. Please note the address provided is an old one. read more

I was looking for a new hair stylist when I came across Danielle's profile on the Educo website. It described her expertise with layerings/textures and So I decided to make an appointment to get my haircut with her. She is not only an excellent hair stylist but so pleasant and receptive. She took the time to get to know exactly the type of haircut I wanted. She asked questions and showed me what different lengths would look like. The final cut was perfectly done, the layers were flawless! Her technique of feathering/adding texture with layers is the best I've seen in years. I am so glad I found Danielle and plan to keep going back to see her every time I need a haircut! 10/10 would recommend!! read more

Not only the best midtown salon...probably one of the best in the whole dang city. At Educo it's all about quality...quality cuts, quality styles, quality colour, quality products, quality service. I've been to some of the most expensive salons in the city but this is the one that's won my loyalty. My go-to's are Jason (the owner) for cuts and Kelsey (the blonde bombshell) for highlights. They are both consistently ah-mazing. Seriously, I get compliments on my hair all the time!! Highly recommended. read more

I had an appointment this morning to correct the colour. The colour on my hair turned out to be the colour I wanted. However, Nicola let me know what I wanted was a lower balayage so she did a reverse balayage with a darker colour. I'm a happy camper and will return to Evoke in the future to get other services done. What I really appreciated about this salon is they do care about your experience. ____________ ( \/ \/ \/ ) / / / / / / / / Was what I had ______________ ( \ / \ / \ / ) / \ / \ / \ / / / \/ \/ \/ / / / Was what I wanted and got. read more

I've been going to Educo Salon for the last seven years and I've never been dissapointed with the results. The place is conveniently located at the corner of Yonge & Eglinton. The reception staff is always welcoming and pleasant. My colourist Nicola is one of the most knowledgeable colour technicians in the GTA. She is an excellent listener, she takes her time to explain what options you have in terms of colour and she makes you feel like you are in excellent hands. You will not be dissapointed with the results. Before making an appointment, I always check her Instagram pictures (nic.d.colour) to get new ideas for my hair. I highly recommend Nicola if you want your hair colour to look superb. read more

An old friend recently recommended that I take a trip into the big smoke for a truly unique hair experience. I figured, how unique could a guys salon experience be? Single serving conversation, wash, cut, style, money exchange - Thank you very much. Right? Well let me be the first to say there is a first time for everything and this is the first time in 28 years that I've been amazed with a salon. Like seriously astounded. Located just south of Yonge and Eglington in North York (on the east side across the street from Scotia Bank), Evoke Salon is a trendy, walk up from the street level that is bustling with enthusiasm, accolades, and clients. I was a little shocked that mid-day on a Wednesday there was a stylist at every single chair and a bum in each seat. The word is certainly out on this place and the crowds are flocking. Walking up the stairs I was greeted by a friendly front desk receptionist, my name was taken and being a new client I was asked to fill out a short form of my information. As I mentioned the space is alive with energy and the open concept of the salon helps to breed that energy. I enjoyed the fact that they had their mission and vision posted on large plaques on the wall as well as plaques outlining what key areas make them different and what they promise to their customers. The most impressive signage was the banner towards the rear of the salon that boasted "Best Hair Salon: Midtown" awarded by Now magazine! While waiting for my stylist I was directed to a large key ring menu of free beverage options next to the magazines for me to choose from. Sure I've been offered a coffee/espresso or water while I wait but their menu rivals that of some restaurants. Coffees, Teas (hot and cold), all natural fruit juices, Water (Flat and sparkling) and on and on. I was asked three times if I wanted anything before I even got into the chair. I eventually decided on a sparkling water and it was brought in a 1L carafe with a wine glass so I could enjoy during my service. Wow! Enough about the space, let's talk about the service I received. I'd describe the services offered at Evoke as experiences, in fact I'd wager that Evoke itself is an experience. After meeting my stylist Ryan, we sat and chatted about what I wanted and he made expert recommendations based off my hair type. Once we had a direction in mind the first experience began. He filled his hands with an aroma therapy oil, and had me inhale and exhale the glorious scents deeply while he leaned down heavily on my shoulders, releasing tensions - totally relaxing. We then moved to the rear of the shop where I received a hair wash and scalp massage - those of you know the way to my hair-care-heart is with a scalp massage (single ladies also take note..AHEM!), between this and the aroma therapy I was putty already and you could have shaved off my eyebrows and I wouldn't have objected. Coming back to the chair we began the cut which was done expertly and with flair. Ryan was a cunning conversationalist and being a young guy like myself we had a great rapport and even a few good laughs. The entire time he worked on my hair he occasionally would pause to top up my sparkling water anytime it got below 1/2 a glass, before continuing on. When the cut was complete we went back for another full wash, condition and scalp massage (wonderful again), this one was far more in depth and had we not been chatting I felt my eyes getting heavy and I would have passed out. Shortly after we were back to the chair and Ryan worked in some thickening solution to add some fullness to my hair and styled my hair EXACTLY how I had envisioned it in my mind. My "experience" at Evoke was relaxing, efficient and overall wonderful from the moment I walked in. The Eglington location is convenient for those of you to the north but for those city dwellers afraid to venture north of Bloor they have another location on Bloor West as well. When I'm in the area again you can bet I'll be giving Ryan @ Evoke a call again - maybe you should too :) Thanks to the staff @ Evoke :)) read more

I came here for a partial up do for a night out. My stylist (Dee) was fantastic, I showed her a few pics of what I wanted and she nailed it. The loose curls were some of the best I ever had, and even though I battled wind and rain they held up really well. I was very pleased with the outcome. The only thing that would really stop me from coming back is the price. Yes, I had a partial up do but it was really pretty simple and not intricate at all. Think half up high pony with loose curls aka Khloe Kardashian. My total cost for less than an hour in the chair was $108. In addition, they didn't even do a wash and blow dry, it was literally just the partial up do. (Which is fine, my hair holds better anyways, but I wasn't made aware of it until I was in the chair; and again, the price). I would come back if I was splurging and it was a special occasion; or if you need confidence that you are in expert hands. However for the price, it didn't give me that truly luxe feel. As for the salon, it is super chic and I enjoyed the popcorn while I had my hair done. Friendly reception and booking process. read more

Wow...if you want your hair to be made love to...well make sure you visit this salon! From the outside it does't look like much...it looks tiny...but once you go up the stairs it's like a magical transformation. It's big and clean and modern. All the staff are extremely friendly and put together...so much put together that I almost felt like I should have gotten my hair did before getting my hair did here. I appreciate that! Daniel was my stylist and he really listened to what I wanted ( a boring haircut..I'm sure he must have yawned!) but he remained professional and gave his opinion on what might be better. Like Civello's, they give you a scalp massage with oils...and then they essentially massage your head while shampooing/conditioning it (I never wanted to get out of the chair!) In the end, he only did a blow dry and it came out so lovely! Usually it's a blow dry and a flat iron, but since I want my hair to grow a bit I want to eliminate some heat/damage to my hair. I love love the fact that they never once pushed products on me. I hate that kinda of sale. He was polite, asking questions so I liked that. Each station is brightly lit with it's own mirror. The only one thing (and maybe I missed it) but I liked to zone out and read while getting cuts or pedicures so I am always with a magazine. I am not a chair talker at all so you won't get convo out of me usually but here I didn't see any magazines. I will be running back for sure in a few months! read more

I booked an appointment with Evoke without specifying a stylist. Came into the salon with sample images on my phone to show Nicola, who ended up doing ombre on my hair. I didn't have a high expectation to be honest, it's just that it takes a lot for me to be impressed...lol. After my hair was colored it was cut by Paula, she had really awesome mermaid-color hair herself and both ladies were very professional, kind and full of knowledge. Really listened! I couldn't believe how well it had turned out...I can honestly say that it's the best hair cut and color experience I have ever had! and I had tried quite a few of them from the very high end Suki's in Vancouver, to the Korean cutting places that are hole in the wall. It's was just never that impressive, no matter how good other reviewers said they were. Both services including tips came to about $300! It's probably the most I have ever spent on hair in a long time since I haven't dyed it in over 15 years. But now I can't stop looking and loving it! Seriously...I'm forever devoted to Nicola and Paula, best $300 I have ever spent. read more

Went in for a color correction in January 2018. Had a serious problem with my blonde highlights and roots that my go-to stylist never cared about getting rid of. Desperate for results, the very nice receptionists directed me to Amanda. Amanda was very thorough and explained to me what must've went wrong in my previous dye jobs and tried her absolute best to get rid of my unruly highlights and uneven roots. Amanda did an amazing job and I would go back for any future hair appointments!! read more

Awesome salon. I'm super picky about my hair but I've been coming here for a while.. even though I only cut my hair like once a year lols. Daniel is great with asian hair and super attentive. They really pay attention to what you want and help you style your hair as well! I always love my experience here but it's $$. They also offer you drinks or cappuccino so that's always a plus! Definitely need to make a reso ahead of time. Super convenient and located on the second floor of a building steps away from Yonge and eglinton ! read more

Love my colourist but not worth what I paid. Plus this time the colour was not what I wanted exactly. I was shocked when my balayage bill came to $400. This was not what I was told when booking. This was in February. I'm scared to see what the post covid prices will be. I'll need to find a new place, I won't be able to afford the outrageous prices or lack of transparency on this prices! ‍ read more

I love this salon! Almost a year ago I had my first haircut with Chanel! I had recently dyed my hair by a different salon and had a lot of damage which meant I had to cut some of my length off. Although I had to go shorter due to the damage Chanel made the cut beautiful and my hair felt SO healthy--I was so happy with the result. She is so genuine, understanding, and so meticulous at what she does. I love that she takes her time and is a perfectionist. She knows what I want in a cut and each time I visit my hair gets better and better. I try to see Chanel every three months for a trim and it has truly garnished results! Trust that your hair will grow faster--I do now :) She has transformed my hair from thin and unhealthy to full and bouncy. Now on to my colorist magician, Amanda is my go to lady! I started my journey with her in Dec 2017 to fix a previous dye jobs choppy roots/perm dye situation for a more blended look. The previous dye work caused some bumps but Amanda made it work with patience and helped me get a more blended balayage. Now 6 months later I have a beautiful seamless blonde highlighted look that I adore. Amanda's knowledge, skills, and patience truly sets her apart. I love that she understands what my hair goals are (blonde ambition lol) at the same time keeping my hair healthy. I trust her expertise and know she has my hairs best interest at the forefront of her mind. I don't trust anyone else with my hair and honestly don't know what I'd do without these ladies. If you're going to check this salon out go to Chanel/Amanda--you won't regret it, I haven't ;) read more

Amazing experience at this salon! I went for a cut (with Karina) and balayage (with Amanda) and would highly recommend both. They listened well and asked lots of questions, and totally nailed what I had in mind. The service is always awesome. If you're looking for balayage, this is definitely the place to come! read more

Easy to make appointments, and amazing service. I don't color my hair often so I was unsure how to take care of it. After messaging Educo salon through Yelp to ask how can I maintain my dye job, Dee, my colorist, responded in a couple of days. She gave me a number of good pointers! That was above and beyond what I expected from a salon. Prices were reasonable, and they take care of you during your stay - coffee, tea, and water were offered throughout my time there. They also carry Davines for your hair coloring needs! I would definitely make the trip to Toronto just to visit Educo again. read more

I went to get my hair cut here a couple Thursdays ago with Chanel. At first walking in, I felt very intimidated. The place is so lavish and all the artists are dressed so nicely lol.. I myself don't really come to salons like this for a haircut, actually this was my first time. I usually just go to Walmart to get the ole haircut I usually get, but this time I decided to spoil myself Chanel was super laid back, made me feel completely at ease, and wanted to ensure I received the hair cut I was looking for. She also didn't push products onto me which to be honest made me want too buy whatever it is she used on my hair to keep it curly, because this girls hair NEVER and I mean NEVER stays curly, but with the products she used it stayed curly for literally three days!! regret not purchasing the products as I write this review lol they smelt amazing too The only downside to this salon is the location in my opinion. Parking is awful, luckily I had went to scope the area out the night before. You can't park on the road as there is construction going on currently, who knows if that's since been finished (doubtful!) but hopefully it is. There is underground parking behind the salon, however slightly tricky to get to from the main road All in all my experience at Educo was fantastic. Defiently will be returning again! The cost for my haircut was a lot more than what I'd usually pay at Walmart, ha! But that' was expected. Did I also mention (and I'm sure you've heard from the other reviewers) that they provide you with a beverage!! A beverage... so you don't get thirsty. How incredibly thoughtful read more

Years later I'm still trying to recover from the overpriced disaster I left with. I walked in asking for a touch up on my existing balayage and to get rid of the brassy tones. I wound up with darker oranger hair. They nearly burned my rib cage length hair off trying to fix their mistake. Then they convinced me to pay another $100 for a trim given the damage. I said I disliked layers and to avoid those. I left with more layers than I've ever had in my hair. $390 + 3 years later I'm STILL trying to outgrow and repair from the mess. Don't let just anyone touch your hair and take your money for it read more

Nicola is your girl if you want gorgeous blonde highlights. I've been seeing her for years, this girl understands colour, I trust her implicitly. I see Shannon for my cuts, she's amazing as well. Together, it's a dream team really. Don't be afraid of the slightly higher price points, you 100% get what you pay for. You're Worth It! read more

Uh yeah so I started coming here last year and like, I think I have ended my life long search for a long term salon. This place is awesome. The staff really take the time to talk you through your life (ok fine, hair) choices, and every visit feels almost like a mini spa visit. Awesome salon. read more

When I first saw my finished hair, I wasn't totally happy with how it looked (the way it was blow dried made my head look a bit odd). But after I washed my hair I realized the actually cut was fantastic -- probably one of the best I've ever gotten. Usually it's the other way around: you look fabulous walking out of the salon, but no matter what you do, you can't get it to work when you style it at home. I'm definitely going to return here. But next time I'll be more specific with how I want it styled. Also: they feed you delicious popcorn, which to me is a huge bonus. read more

I was desperate for a haircut and my regular hairdresser has been out of town forever. I came to Educo through Yelping for "Best pixie cut in Toronto". My appointment was with Chanel. I showed her a picture of what I wanted. She was honest with me and said that it wasn't as low maintenance as I wanted it to be. We discussed for a few minutes and came up with a plan. I was ambivalent when I left the salon. But I received a ton of compliments even after I washed my hair. I don't need to use a hairdryer or iron to manage it and still look chic and sexy. That's what I wanted. I go to hot yoga and need to clean my hair after. Doing hair is time consuming so I chopped it all off. No regrets! I'd give the haircut 4/5. Value for money 3/5. Hospitality 5/5. To be honest, the initial massage was okay. I'd be happy to give it up if they charged me less. Lol. I paid $100 inclusive of tip for a complete style change. Double of what my fabulous hairdresser charges. I'd recommend Educo if money is not a deterrent for you. I'll be back when I get a raise! read more

I've been wanting to cut the hell out of my hair for a while now, and I'm visiting Toronto for about two weeks and decided it was time. Educo gets major points for being able to schedule me on the day I asked for (other salons could not) and also for offering me a few choices that fit into my schedule. I'm horrible with names, but the girl who cut my hair was an absolute delight and worked with me to get the cut I wanted. She even gave me a hug on the way out-- despite knowing I probably wouldn't see her again (I'm visiting from the US). I went from a short, asymmetrical pixie ish cut to more or less a Mohawk, and as she was cutting she sort of went in stages to make sure that I was happy and it wasn't too short. I'm a little sad I don't live here so I can't be a regular. Ps- if you, lovely hair stylist who cut my hair are reading this, I truly apologize for forgetting your name. It's not you. It's me. Swear. And I'll remember you if I'm here again and need a cut! read more

Excellent cuts, excellent coloring! I had my cut with Chanel, she is quick, effective and very professional. I am happy with my cut. For the color I had Alicia, who was tasked with a tough job of fixing my color from orange to blond. For some reason the previous colorist from Floka thought it funny to dye my hair clementine orange. Anyway, Alicia was able to turn me from Trump into a normal human with blond hair. Done in 2 steps, the color was gentle and did not hurt the scalp. Alicia did a great job. This took about 1.5-2 hrs on short hair. Pricing - ca 90 for the cut, ca 95 for double color and tone. Very short hair. Highly recommend this salon! read more

Love Educo salon! Amanda is the only person in Toronto I trust with colouring my hair. Amanda always listens to what I want but advises me on what is actually achievable, will involve the least maintenance and will cause the least damage to my hair. Everyone else in the salon is extremely friendly and there is always someone on hand to provide you with a warm drink and popcorn. I also like that that a blow-out is included in the price of the colour- most places charge you extra. They also don't push you into buying products which is a huge pet peeve of mine at most salons. Highly recommend both educo and Amanda! read more

so it took me a while to write this because: 1- I was too livid to actually think through what happened and 2- I was busy finding another place to fix what happened there...so here goes: In early May I called them, asked them for curly cut, specified that I want 1-someone experienced and trained to cut curly hair & 2-preferably someone who knew how to dry-cut my hair. They insisted they have someone that 'exactly matched' my criteria. So I booked. Now, my stylist was nice and chatty. She told me she had curly hair but who could tell; she had it ironed out into a cascading waterfall of silky smooth highlighted strands! I should have taken the hint then but when I asked about it she said she had a wedding the day before and had kept the blow-dry just cause! Ok...moving on! I asked her for a dry-cut and whether she knows how to do one.She said she doesn't and "she doesn't recommend it" so obvious question was:"if you don't know how to do one properly, how do you know?" to which she responded that she has had many clients with botched dry-cuts. Again, fair enough, moving on! She proceeded to ask me what I wanted. I showed her an old picture of MYSELF with the hair that I wanted. She glanced and said she got it. Hallelujah! then she started. She cut my hair into two layers of disconnected curls with the exact opposite relation to the photo I showed her: shorter top layer-Longer bottom layer. Basically I had a curly mullet! I explained to her that this is not what I asked for and she explained for a good 4 minutes that this is ACTUALLY what I showed her. Insisted on a 'new product' that could 'cure my flaky, "dry" scalp (her air quotes btw)' and charged me $195 for a wash+haircut+style+sales pitch that altogether lasted 40 minutes! so...not impressed. Curly-hair ladies, DO NOT trust what they proclaim to to know to do--Ask for PICTURES OF THEIR PREVIOUS CLIENTS! read more

I am a little hesitant to write a review since I have mixed feelings. So I'll try to break down the Yays and Nays as best I can: Yays: - Very friendly and welcoming reception staff. - Offered a beverage and a bowl of popcorn (yes it's true!). - Kelsey (the colourist) was awesome. She listened to what I wanted and offered her own advice. I appreciated her opinion and was pleased that she wanted what would be best for me and didn't just blindly do what I thought would look best. - Shawnn (the hair stylist) was also very good. He gave me a great cut. Nays: - Did not know ahead of time that I was going to have a different colourist and hair stylist. I was thrown off and a little upset that Kelsey was done with me once she got my foils in. I was hoping to continue to explore whether or not she would be the right 'fit' for my hairdresser since I'm new to town. - The price is likely moderate for a salon but definitely not moderate in terms of a basic hair colour and cut. I realize the price had to factor in two hair stylists and the assistant that washed my hair and gave me the scalp massage. But it was definitely an indulgence. Overall, a great place to go to get pampered but not a place for an everyday cut and colour. That's just my opinion though, I'm not used to paying so much. Probably a small town thing. The big city can be expensive! read more

I have been here multiple times over the past year for both colour and cuts and always had a okay (but never great) experience .I think the prices are a bit high for what you get, but overall satisfied. My last visit, my hair is what could only be described as a hack job. I am not very particular about how my hair looks, and am usually satisfied with any cut I have gotten. I came in with an overgrown blunt cut. It was looking really heavy but I was happy with the length. I asked for a small trim and for some thinning and layering to get some weight out of the ends. The end result was horrible, and the next day a friend even laughed and asked me if I had cut my own hair. The "layers" was one single layer that left a straight line across the back of my hair. There was absolutely no blending between that layer and the ends. The entire haircut was also lopsided, with the left side of my hair being roughly 1.5 inches longer than the right side. I wish I could include a picture in my review, because it is difficult to explain how truly awful this haircut was. Based on this initial cut alone (at $200) I would have given a 1* review. BUT I reached out a few days later and expressed how disappointed I was, and the customer service was really great. They booked me in really quickly with a senior hair stylist to fix the cut (since I no longer trusted the first stylist) and she did a really great job. If I do ever go back to this salon, I would book with Shannon again, because she was amazing! Overall I was still pretty disappointed with the entire experience, as I had wanted to keep the length in my hair, but the only way to fix the layer issue was to do a blunt cut to where the shortest layer was. This left my hair about 4 inches shorter than when I first went in. Like I said I am not super particular about my hair so I am fine to rock a long bob, but at $200 and 4 hours of my time, my hair was no where near what I had wanted or asked for. read more

Wow! Had an appointment today with Alicia for highlights and Chanel for a cut. Both women were amazing! What I loved: - amazing atmosphere! Great music, great decor, and the staff really likes each other. I can't stress how much this is important. - super punctual. - they pamper you with water, tea, coffee, and chocolate. Oh, and neck massages. - Both Alicia and Chanel took the time to talk to me and really understand what I wanted. I really appreciate this. - They don't keep trying to push other services at you. - My hair looks beautiful! I'll be back! read more

Let me just say I never even bothered to get my hair done here. Pure garbage etiquette I set up an apt for a cut and color- color correction/partial. If I'm getting a cut and color; wouldn't it be logical to set up the cut first to then proceed to color? No illogical Evoke salon on Eglinton and Yonge did the reverse but I'm not upset by that error but the fact that Andrea the colorist had the audacity to give me shit about that?! That isn't even the major issue here, upon the hair color consultation with ANDREA, her non filtered mouth said to me "I can't fix your hair, there's no way like your hair must be so damaged beyond repair that I can't fix it- we're going to have to rebook for a later day for a span of 4-5 hours(charged $$$$ for its 'complexity')" oh yeah? Girl, bye. Save yourself people stay away from this sterile uneducated salon you'll be much much happier Ps: got my hair done at Halo Hair studio read more

Just got my hair dyed by Andrea - went blonde ombre. I could not be happier with the results! She made it subtle and sexy, not messy-looking like some dip dye 'dos. I wasn't sure whether to do funky red or blonde and Andrea advocated for blonde - I'm so glad she did. She really took her time and looked after every detail, and I could tell she really enjoys her work. She was as excited to see the results as I was! First a great haircut, now a great colour? You win, Evoke! read more

Located on the south east side of Yonge and Eglinton, this salon is located on the second floor. As soon as I walked in, i was greeted and someone took my coat. I was immediately offered a drink. My stylist Oz greeted me right away. For the first 20 minutes, we discussed what kind of hair cut I wanted. I was then escorted to the back where I received a hair wash and a scalp massage which included a neck massage. It felt very relaxing...heavenly. I agree with Kris U. - it was truly an experience...if someone were to have shaved my eyebrow off, I would not have objected either! Oz was very attentive and cut my hair exactly the way that I requested with extremely great technique. My hair looked amazing. He infused my hair with a healthy dose of Morrocan Oil since my hair was so dry. This conditioned and revived my hair for the next couple of days. The rate is $50 for the visit plus tax and tip - they also have senior stylists up to $100 for a haircut, shampoo, and set/style. It was a great experience, my hair looks great. The salon was all open concept and very hip/trendy. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Definitely would recommend this place. read more

Had a coupon for a moisturizing treatment, haircut, and blowdry. Value of these services was $80. Yay: -offered beverages right away; -good service; -place was easy to find, and in a neighbourhood that had lots of shops (good if one arrives too early for an appt); -Ryan, the hair stylist they assigned to all coupon ppl, was a capable stylisth, and decent conversationalist; -nice clean salon with good amount of natural lighting; -wow - offered chocolate mousse while hair was being cut? *yay!* I asked if this was the norm, and he said that they offer clients snack on a regular basis. Oh? :) Hey: -offered to be let in 15 min. earlier, but when I got there the stylist wasn't ready so the appt. started at my original time; -cut hair bits were left on my neck. When asked for them to be removed, exposed skin area with cut hair was blowdryered off - leaving many small blunt hairs permeated my tank top's fabric -- :P I really don't like the feel of ANY of my hair being under my clothing! Would I go again? Overall, a good experience. But living in another area of TO, I can go to http://www.yelp.ca/biz/seefu-hair-studio-toronto and pay $35 for a decent hair cut + shampoo, plus they massage your shoulders. No frills kind of place, compared to Evoke, but then again, you're not paying extra for the same cut. read more

I came in for a full head of highlights after my last colour job was sort of a fail. Dee was my colourist and she did an AMAZING job The highlights (really baby lights) look amazing and blend so nicely. She did a lot of foils with very thin strands and sections so the colour blends beautifully! It took 2 hours just for the foils but it was worth it. Dasha did my wash and blow dry and I was very happy with both. The price is really not TOO crazy when you think about some downtown salons and the quality of their work (at Evoke) was top notch Plus they have an expansive drink menu and brought fresh popcorn for everyone getting their hair done which was super nice I'll definitely be back! read more

I had not cut my hair since the Pandemic, and it was quite long. (I would wear it back, but I decided to get it cut ) I read the reviews of this salon and the reviews of the stylists were very good. I did not request a specific stylist, and Danielle cut my hair. She was amazing. I brought a picture in and she knew exactly what cut I wanted. She cut it medium length, so I could see how I liked it, but could also still put it up if I wanted. I certainly highly recommend Danielle. read more

I've been here a few times for a cut so I decided to try a colour this time. I normally see Shawnn for cuts but he sadly was booked during the only time I could make it in. I ended up getting my colour from Alicia and a cut from Shannon. I was so nervous as I wanted balayage which is new to me and very different, but they absolutely nailed it. I showed them a picture from Pinterest and they both recreated it perfectly! I love this place. read more
