I've lived in Vancouver for 3 yrs and struggled to find a good hairdresser. I arrived with long hair and it gradually got shorter (now a short bob) NOT out of choice. Every hairdresser I went to tried to do something that was either technically out of their skill range or they heard my request completely different, giving me something completely different!! Eventually, I travelled to San Francisco where I knew an excellent hairdresser. She gave me one of the best cuts ever - I loved it. However, travelling to SF a few times a year is not financially viable. Eventually, It needed a trim and nervously I knew I'd have to go to a Vancouver hairdresser. Oh! No! Not a good idea - she tried to follow the style but couldn't and decided to do her own thing and messed up my "One and Only wonderful haircut in 3 years". I then decided to try Sukis: all of them Granville, downtown, Kits.. It was "hit & miss"...and very expensive. On the first cut it was ok but I still had to go back for a 2nd cut to get it right. Then out of pure luck I found "Lawrence Hart" and he understood exactly what I was requesting. He listened, gave me his honest opinion of how it would look and how he could help my hair look thicker, and why a certain type of cutting method works better for my quality of hair. I am overjoyed to have found him. If you are coming from London UK & want a good hairdresser who speaks your language, is v skilled and honest then Lawrence is the one to go to. Don't do as I did and try many different stylists in hope that you'll get a good cut. Lawrence worked in London before moving to BC. He is based in Whistler and well worth a trip from Downtown. If you don't fancy driving go with: Epic rides they get you there in 75 mins direct from Burrard. I am so relieved that I can now go up to Whistler as and when I need a cut, and I can stop wondering when I can afford my next trip to San Francisco!! You'll find Lawrence at www.farfellahair.com an Eveda salon upstairs next to Crystal Lodge, Village Green Whistler. Thank you Lawrence for restoring my hair, a wonderful cut, and returning my faith in hairdressers in BC. read more
