    I'm disappointed to say that I had one of the worst experiences here that I've ever had at a hair salon. It was an uncomfortable and painful experience. I got a full head of foils and none of them go to the root which I think is entirely unacceptable for the price you pay. The foils were yanked out of my head at the sink and I was left there without asking if I was comfortable, my neck was in a ton of pain the whole time. When I had my hair dried it was pulled so hard with the brush that I legitimately left in pain. I'm very upset by this experience because I had very high hopes. I felt rushed and the job looks that way as well. I've never lost so much hair in my entire life. I gave private feedback via the website but never got a response. Update* There manager got ahold of me and was very helpful and understanding, I was offered a solution to the problem and am satisfied with the customer service on his end :)

    this is the photo i showed the stylist of what i wanted

    I don't even feel like I should be giving 1 star, that's how awful this experience was. ABSOLUTELY THE WORST hairstylist and Salon ever!!! hair looked nothing like the picture i showed, then when I went to ask the manager to get it fixed, she yelled at me for not asking sooner. Manager was so rude and kept yelling at me to "not speak to her this way" when I was simply trying to show her the picture of what I wanted my hair to look AWFUL not to mention overly priced. i will never give this place business EVER AGAIN and neither should you. I will include two photos; the clearer one is the hair I was given, and the more pixelated picture is what I asked for and was agreed upon with the stylist FIVE DAYS IN ADVANCE. So you can decided if you want to spend $100s of dollars just for them to make ur hair look like a birds nest.

    HS Studio Salon Spa is a energetic salon/spa with an uptown feel. Although they are located in the Halifax Shopping Centre Annex (stand-alone location in the parking lot by Tim Horton's), once you're inside you'd think you were on Spring Garden Road, judging by the atmosphere and buzz going on. HS Studio Salon Spa offers a menu of options: everything from hair care to massage therapy, facials to manicures, and waxing to make-up application. (Massage therapy is provided by Registered Massage Therapists and the salon will issue receipts for insurance purposes.) I've used HS Studio Salon Spa for a number of services and have always been delighted with the results. The stylists are savvy and practical; when my (blonde) daughter wanted to dye her hair green and purple, the stylist gave us honest advice on the permanency and the feasibility. Props to the salon staff for speaking their mind, even if it's not necessarily what you want to hear. The esthetics and massage side of the house is professional and efficient. Personal matters (such as bikini waxes and full body massages) are handled with discretion and an understanding of your personal space. The mani/pedi area is outfitted with massaging chairs and provides a very comfortable place to hang out while your nails dry. I recommend HS Studio Salon Spa unhesitatingly. The sole drawback is that it can be a bit pricy - but no more than the aforementioned Spring Garden Road salons. Try it - you'll like it!

    Last month I realized I needed a haircut more then I have ever needed a haircut in my entire life…read more My hair had not been trimmed in several months, I had 6-month old half-grown out colour that had faded to the max, and I was *thisclose* to taking the razor to the whole thing ala. Britney. I am particular about my hair and about it looking good so I don't like to trust it to just anyone. Seeing as my hairstylist I have had since BIRTH is in Cole Harbour, I now live in the North end of Halifax with no car, and she is extremely hard to get an appointment with anyway, I decided it was high time to find a place in my own hood. I had noticed Flaunt salon open up a few months before (it opened mid-October 2010) because I walk by the old house it's located in every day after work (you can't miss that big, round window in the front!). It looked like a nice, fun place, plus, you can't beat a 5 minute walk from my apartment. So, I thought I would give it a try. Well, seriously I think I had the best haircut of my LIFE that day. Now, I really really needed a haircut so to be honest, ANY change to my style would probably have made me completely over-the-moon, but it was more than that. I was randomly paired up with Laurel and she was lovely - very friendly with a sunny personality - so I felt in good hands right from the beginning. I brought a picture to give her an idea of the kind of look I wanted and she made it look exactly like that! She gave me a great asymmetrical bob style with tons of layers, but kept it long enough that I could still pull at least the front back - you know, she actually LISTENED to me (which doesn't always happen at salons, am I right, other high-maintainence hair people?). The salon itself is small (I think only 5 chairs) and so it's quiet but also encourages conversation amongst patrons. There is an air of exclusivity to it - like you are at a place that requires you to make an appointment 6 months in advance and where you could easily shell out $200 for a cut. Now, don't get me wrong, this place is a tad pricey - I was actually surprised when she told me the total at the end of my appointment and it came to $57 before tip (so almost $70 total - eeps). However, to me it was worth it because she did a great job with my cut. Also, I don't necessarily mind paying a bit more money for the convenience and experienced stylists. Unfortunately I can't speak for how much a colour or other treatments would cost but I imagine they are not cheap either. One thing that I also found a tad odd was that they don't take credit cards (only debit, cash or cheque) so those of you on a budget and who like your plastic, be forewarned. Also keep in mind that they have more limited hours than other salons (the latest they are open is 8pm and that's only one or two nights a week I think...the other nights I believe it is 6pm) and they are limiting their hours even more over the summer, so book at least a week ahead. One thing is for sure about this place - you will definitely walk out of here with something to Flaunt!

I had gone from dark brunette back to blonde 6 months earlier, and still had a little bit of brassy orange in my hair. Georgia blasted me back to a wonderful honey-blonde and layered my grown-out, messy hair into a stylish, face-framing cut. I look ten years younger, and this hairstyle is so much easier to keep tidy. Not only is Georgia a master of what she does, but she's also incredibly sweet, funny and highly sensitive to her clients' needs. I was an esthetician for many years, and I'm very particular and tough to please. Georgia got my new cut and colour spot on, and I had a fun-filled few hours in her chair and some good laughs. Her prices are very reasonable and fair when you compare her high skill set to nearby salons that charge much more. I can confidently say I've found one of the best hairdressers in Halifax, and I won't be having anyone other than Georgia do my hair services from now on. Thank you, Georgia :-D

Hoping I'd have a similar experience here I booked an appointment. It seems difficult to get an appointment here on the weekends, so I was super excited when she told me there were spots open. I came in at 7 on a Saturday and gave the girl doing my hair a very simple instruction: I want curls but curls tend to fall out really easily with my hair. This is what I tell most of the stylists who do my hair and it seems to work well. She decided to do round brush curls initially. Which didn't work very well and was kind of painful as she had to de-tangle my hair multiple times, and there wasn't much curl in the end. She then asked if I wanted more curls in it. I said yes and she put some curling wand curls in it. It looked ok. It was $50 with a tip. Ouch... My hair fell out 10 minutes later and I ended up curling it myself and doing a much better job.
