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!!

For a typical Japanese salon, I would give it 2.5 stars for the price and what I got. Came here for a haircut, maybe 3 inches to bring my hair back to above shoulder length and add some layers back to give it some shape with my fine hair. I'm used to Asian salons will have a good shampoo, head massage with the conditioner and another rinse through after the cut. Didn't get much of a massage. No 3rd rinse. It was literally 30 mins with Tomoyuki on the director level. Cut was fine. Nothing I am amazed with. Not sure if it's worth it. I think he rushed it because the customer next to me was just getting her hair rinsed out after colouring and/or treatment so he was going back to servicing her when I was done with my cut. Unlikely coming back. Some might like his speedy service though. He's polite. Just my expectations for this price I've had much better service with a decent haircut.

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.

Having been a client at Sheila's for close to 13 years now, I felt compelled to write about my positive experiences there. I have found the staff to be very friendly, professional and sensitive to your wants and needs. They are always so kind and courteous and make everyone feel welcome with tea, coffee and personal warmth. In terms of professional hygiene with regards to the care and maintenance of combs, brushes and equipment, they hold to the highest standards of cleanliness. The salon itself has gone through several upgrades over the years as well, with consistent renewal of equipment and aesthetic decor. It stands to reason that a business giving excellent services would remain in the community for nearly 30 years as it has. If it did not, it would have closed down a long time ago. The staff seems to make every effort to remain current and at the cutting edge of style through regular trips to hair shows in both New York and Florida and they often speak with renewed enthusiasm when they return with fresh ideas and new techniques. To me, that is a strong indication that they take pride in their work and want to bring the best and latest to their clientele. Lastly, any review whether it be of a movie or a restaurant is a personal perspective. My suggestion to anyone is to go and check it out for yourself and you be the judge. I think you will find that what I have said is the gospel truth and you will have found yourself a gem of a salon! read more

I just had my hair washed, cut and styled at Sheila's about a half hour ago. I always look forward to my visit there. I have been seeing Sheila herself for the last 4 years and have always had a perfect experience! Her shop is very clean and her staff are ever so friendly and accommodating. I can be picky at times about my hair, and I always leave happy! I always look forward to my visit especially to learn about the many hair shows that she travels all over North America to. She likes to keep her staff (and my hair) up-to-date with all the latest styles and trends. I would recommend her shop ten times over to anyone (man or woman) looking to update their style, or just to run in for a quick haircut! She also styled our hair the day of my wedding, and I must add that my out of town Mom looked absolutely beautiful!!! Keep up the great work Sheila and team! read more

As a customer of Sheila's for many years, I am very happy with the service and attention I receive every time I go in. I started as a walk-in, but found that Farzana and Sheila were so knowledgeable about proper hair cut and hair care that I kept going back. I am happy when they recommend products that are good for my hair, and though I don't always purchase them right away, I keep the products in mind for a future purchase. They even can help with ideas for gifts for my daughter and nieces! My daughter lives in Montreal, and when she is in Toronto, she gets her hair colored only by Farzana. I would highly reccommend Sheila's ShearArt to everyone. read more

The closest Great Clips location by my home closed recently. I had a wonderful hairstylist and I often think about how she is doing. For a while, I have been meaning to get my hair cut, but never got around to it until the start of my vacation. I did a search and decided to give this salon on Copper Creek a try. I recommend checking in using the Great Clips app. I have been using it for a while and it is a time-saver. When I checked in, it said that I had a 17-minute wait. By the time I got there and said my name, I didn't have to wait. It was doing steady business when I got there. Amal was my hairstylist. I decided to get four inches cut off the length of my hair. My bangs were trimmed, too. She was fast, efficient, and made sure that I was comfortable with the agreed-upon length. She also carefully made sure that she got all the small bits of hair off my neck. She used baby powder on her brush to take it all off. I didn't walk around for the rest of the day with hair all over me, which was wonderful! There is plenty of parking, even on a busy Saturday next to a huge Walmart. My haircut was $17 before taxes and tip. I was in and out of the salon in roughly twenty minutes. Not bad at all! I have found my Great Clips to call my regular place to get my hair cut. (242)
