Alisha gives the best scalp massage, can decode my incoherent directions into pure ferndangle (that's an award winning haircut kids), and bonus, she totally looks like Heather Graham. She's the bomb (Alisha that is....although Heather is pretty cool too). The decor and vibe definitely lean toward the feminine side but the whole place is chockers with cool peeps. They'll hook you up with a 5 star latte while you wait and you'll get a front row view of the action on Whyte. You used to be able to get a beer with your hair cut (you can't come back to the other side once you're experienced that btw) until someone complained that it was inappropriate because they had brought along their little ankle bitter, demon child (note: ankle biting not confirmed). Pro Life Tip: Don't be that douche that ruins it for everyone else. Coles Notes: Go here; ask for Alisha.

I arrived a bit early and had a nice chat with the receptionist who shared some of her skin care hacks with me, which was positive interaction number one. I really appreciated that the stylist I came to see noticed some flaws in the cut I had previously received and helped me towards fixing the error in the future, although it would take a bit of growth to correct. She also sounded like she'd help you get the look you want, but would advise you against things that would really damage your hair, which I completely respect. It was such a good experience that I've already booked my next appointment.

So I couldn't rate this salon until after I had my hair coloured because when I got my hair cut and…read moreloved it so much I thought there is no way they are that good at cutting and colouring. Well I was wrong and I'm happy I was. Needless to say Christina Domenelli Salon is an great salon! When I first walked in I kid you not, I felt under dressed as the salon is modern and feels high class. How I came to the salon...well...my dad has been going here for a while said I had to try it out and lets be real...if your dad said hey go to my salon what do you picture. Some old barber shop in some sketchy part of Edmonton where some 80year old man named Joe has the shakes and sits you down with a buzzer. Um no thanks. Long story short I got a gift card from him for this salon and was like hell why not. Now Christina Domenelli, not the salon the actual person. Yes she's an actual person who owns the salon and works there too. CRAZY I know. She is just WOW! She's this hot little mama who is so down to earth, realistic and just great! I'm planning on getting my hair and makeup done at this salon for my wedding next year and she goes WAY beyond the limits. I feel bad that the last reviewer didn't have a good experience, but I do understand that this isn't a salon for everyone. I've had a couple colourings and cuts that weren't exactly what I had in mind but they will work with you to get you what you want. My only complaint and biggest issue is the cost, it is expensive. My last cut and colour (highlights) that I got was damn near $400, I almost cried. A lot of salons offer the same thing for a fair bit less.

My experience at this salon was nothing short of magical, they managed to balance my hair and dye it a beautiful chocolate brown with nothing peaking through. They made me feel so comfortable, and the quality of everything exceeded my expectations. Quinn and Mary Jane did my colour and cut, and Mary Jane even put rollers in my hair after because she knew I was attending a party. I can now say that I will be a very faithful client of theirs from now on. The best part, it was completely fair pricing with a very expensive feeling experience. As somebody who has been to a lot of salons in Edmonton, I feel like I've found my salon home. Highly recommended.

I have never before had a stylist do this. We decided on something very different. It turned out that I only liked it for about 2 weeks, but I was glad that I had tried it. The second time was to trim it to go back to my original style. Some areas need to grow a bit more. Third time is perfect. I have very thick, course, hair and I like it short, and she is very good at thinning it and recommending products to soften and avoid frizz. She is also very friendly and a great conversationalist.

However, I was beginning to resemble Cousin It and my sister was insistent I try Tommie Salon. I am so glad I took the advice. The salon is chic and welcoming with lots of spotless tile, warm wood and the Eufora product makes the place smell amazing. The front staff welcomed me warmly, brought me a badly needed, and very nice cup of coffee, and introduced me to Kaitlyn, my hair's new best friend. She took the time to listen to my rather long, picky, and particular list of hair needs, and made some great suggestions. I immediately felt comfortable and that I could trust her to make sure my hair looked great and would be simple to style. She gives the BEST wash and scalp massage ever, and took care to explain each step of the fairly lengthy cutting process. It was a pleasure chatting with her, and the other customers. They even gave me a slice of birthday cake. As they say in all the best infomercials ... but wait, there's more! Tommie offers downtown style and service, for way less than downtown prices. I'm thrilled to have found this place and am really looking forward to my next visit. Thanks Tommie, Kaitlyn, and team.
