    Pink balayage on black hair
    Kopi C.

    I've been back to Maya salon for more than a decade. Usually I just had a hair cut in Japanese style, I like it most of the time, the price is fair comparing to what's in the city. The service is always good from boss and her family! I love them! For hair stylist, it depends who you are with. People work there for few years then they are gone, so I've been trying different stylists. Some days I'm more satisfied than the others. Generally I'm happy with Maya, especially after I've tried other places like Civello (aveda) in Toronto, I paid a lot more with a not very happy result. Recently I wanted a pink balayage style. I first tried doing it in Omotesando Tokyo, it's famous for colouring, I was there for 8 hours, still didn't get the pink I want even they were working on virgin hair. This time I'm doing it at Maya Salon, they made the pastel pink happened in 3 hours! If you didn't have one good experience, try it next time with another stylist. If you have tried different places you would know they have great service and produce great result with best price. This is a family run salon with heart

    My experience has been consistently very good to excellent. Most of the bad reviews seem to be either people not understanding their own over-expectation, or not knowing how to communicate what they want and not getting it. I mostly want to defend 'the guy' the bad reviews are about since I got a guy this weekend. Yasu will be the hair dresser I will ask for in the future for Saturdays. He was professional, understood what I wanted from pictures, and it was clear that my hair was his art. I would put him up there with Misato (lady that also works here). 10/10 would return.

    I asked for 1 inch off the bottom, all one length, blunt cut straight across. I took this photo as soon as I got home from the salon.

    Hit or miss. I've had some good hair cuts in the past here and always felt that the value was great for the service. My last visit I was dissapointed with the cut. I hate to give a bad review since my stylist Yuna was very nice and gentle with my hair. I asked for a simple cut straight across. What i got instead was uneven and not like the photo I brought with me. The shape of my hair is now rounder than when I came in with a chunk taken out of it :/

    they give you a lovely sugary carb filled drink for your wiat if you do end up waiting ^^

    Request for Mayu ^^ she did a really good job at cutting my hair and giving me what I wanted with the very few pictures I gave her. Her communication (English) might not be as great as other hair stylists but she is very compliant with how you want your hair and recommends you other options if she doesn't think what you want will look good. Thank you for having me ^^

    Maya hair salon is amazing. Really knowledgeable and experienced stylists who really know their technique and keep up-to-date with style. My first experience there was kind of bad but that's because I went in and gave a pretty vague idea of what I wanted. Honestly, I think you really need to know how to handle your own hair and what works/what doesn't in order to get a halfway decent cut here. Communication really isn't a problem; I don't speak Korean or Japanese and I can always get my point across in English and with pictures that I show on my laptop (this, I find, is super effective). To the people that got bad cuts, gesturing and saying vague stuff like "trim" is usually gonna get you a bad cut at any salon, not just at Maya. For the most part I've had really good experiences. The shop owner lady usually feeds me (since I'm there for 2-3 hours each time) and Michelle is a perfectionist. She often spends time after the cut to adjust individual hairs and hairspray her masterpiece into submission! My only real complaint is that they don't use barbicide at all and never sterilise their brushes, scissors, etc. I feel a little icky about that. I was just there yesterday and things were a little rushed, which I didn't really like. I left with some hairdye still on my face and ears and I didn't notice until I got home, otherwise I would've said something. The haircut itself was amazing. They have their on and off days I think...

    Korean and Japanese hair stylists run this tiny upstairs salon. This is the place to go to cut Asian hair. I've been here twice and they've always managed to tame my thick tresses into something that suits my face shape and style. I've had my hair done twice by the owner (whose name is also Sandy!). She did a lovely job of cutting and colouring my hair. Kaori also did a decent job of giving me a layered shorter style recently. Their English is good enough to communicate with me what I'm looking for, but mostly I just sit back and let them do their thing and hope everything comes out right. And it does.. eventually. The only minor complaints I have about this place are 1. the noob young male hair colourist who accidentally bleached my whole head of hair orange last year. Sandy fixed it and offered me 50% off my next visit, which I stupidly declined and am now still trying to grow out the supremely damaged orangey ends that show up every time my hair dye fades. 2. ventilation in here is not so great, super stuffy with chemical fumes during the summer. And there's always a horde of people waiting to get their hair done, so make an appointment! Or go early during a weekday. They'll offer you a box of juice while you're flipping through Asian hairstyle magazines deciding on which SNSD girl's hair you want.

    I booked a women's cut with Sam and he is SO talented! I asked for a trim of my curtain bangs,…read moreadding in/trimming up layers, and thinning out overall of my heavy Korean hair. I live in NY so I have a U.S. bank and wasn't able to pay the $20 deposit because I don't have e-Transfer, but I emailed the salon and they said it was no problem and not to worry about it. I was able to use my Visa credit card (they also take Mastercard) to pay. If you do pay the deposit, $20 is deducted from your total. The hair washing station is really relaxing, with lie-flat chairs so your neck doesn't hurt and sparkling lights on the ceiling. I'm so happy with my cut ($80 CAD before tip) and I think I got a great value for the level of service. I highly recommend Sam and this salon, his technique was so meticulous and I love my cut.

Our appointment was for 11 am but at 1030, Amanda text us that Bella was stuck on a GO Bus and wouldn't be able to start until 1130. Normally that's not a big issue, but I was dealing with really tight timelines because of nap times and attention spans, so I couldn't just burn 30 more minutes than expected. I explained this to Amanda, and she said if I could get there soon, she would cut my daughter's hair. The salon opens at 11, but Amanda started with us at 1045. The level of customer service was unreal. Friendly, accommodating, apologetic and I got what I came there for - a sophisticated haircut for my daughter that wasn't just a "who cares you're a kid" cut. The salon is beautiful inside, the sparkling lights about the hair washing station was a nice touch. At the very end, Bella did show up and she seemed nice as well, but Amanda really came through for us. We will be back!!

    #ServiceStarShoutOut I've been holding off to get my hair cut for the longest time ever. Now with…read morethe restrictions lifted, no way can I wait another month to schedule a haircut at my regular spots. So I went out on a whim during the Civic holiday dialled around in Chinatown to see if I can walk in for an appointment. Let's be real, there is no day off in Chinatown. Lucky me! Jane was free on the first call, and I did not need to wait or book appointments! $22 for a women's cut with cash only! What what?!?! Remember to tip! I usually pay at least double for a haircut, and can I honestly say it's double the quality of what I get from Jane? Nope. Jane took an after pic of my haircut. I only wanted a basic B hair chop with minimal layers at the end and she nailed it. Whoops forgot to take the before pic for comparison. You'll just have to imagine the girl from the Ring, that's me, hair to my waist. Jane and I had a good chat. Her native tongue is Cantonese, and she's giving me tips on how to style my hair. She mentions now with the pandemic, her client base is much more diverse. For health and safety, she is always masked and I put on a transparent disposable salon gown. I was the only person there! Likely, people didn't know she kept the store opened on Civic holiday. The place is very spacious for one person operating the whole shop. Jane explains she operates all three chairs there and switching between chairs for the next client coming in so that the chair doesn't stay warm for the next person.

    Highly recommend this hair salon I got a short haircut for summer and very happy with the result…read more Price is reasonable as well.
