I decided enough was enough and I would try the closest salon to me; the cat's meow. I have been regularly getting my hair cut here for around two years by Nicole. She's bleached, and dyed my hair vibrant colours. She made cuts appropriate for the length and my thick, wavy, huge amount of hair. (Including maintaining my pixie!) I have also had my nails done by Katie and Ashleigh. Both were done well and left me feeling like a million bucks! I can't gush about and recommend this salon enough. I am very sad to leave when I move out of Ottawa at the end of this summer.

My mom and I have been getting our hair cut here for years and years. Even after we moved to a different city, every time we visited Ottawa we would get our hair cut at Anna's. She remembers us every time! I am not kidding you when I say they give THE BEST head massages EVER. The massage lasts so much longer than at other hair salons and it's so relaxing that you're practically incapacitated after it! Their hair is also great - you can look through their many hairstyle books or bring in a picture of your own and they'll try to match it with your face shape, features, age, and personal style. Anna herself, as well as her family, are very sweet and accommodating, and her prices are a great value!

I made a reservation at Anna's because I was tired of paying so much money for just a women's…read morehaircut, and because I wanted to sport the popular "see through bangs" again. This style is especially popular in Asia so I trusted an Asian hairstylist to cut them. I gave him specific instructions on how I wanted them to be cut and showed some pictures too. He seemed like he understood well until he started chopping off my hair all the way above my eyebrows even though I had told him to only cut it to one centimetre below my eyebrows. I told him that he had cut them too short but then he just started saying that it looked better this way and that this was what the style in the pictures I showed him looked like, etc... I was extremely upset at that point, but since nothing much could be done about it, I held it in. After that I got my ends trimmed off. I would have rated the experience one star because of the horribly short bangs, but they were quite polite so I'll give them a star for that. I will not be returning.

On this visit I decided to treat myself - mani pedi for $38 and shellac for an added $15. I also got my eyebrows done for $15. All decent prices, yes, but after 5 days my shellac is already chipping. Angry Andrea. In terms of a nail salon, it's pretty much like every other place I've been. Massage chairs, magazines (though I did notice a serious lacking in the gossip mags this time - sad.), amazingly deft nail artists who don't speak much to you, but are sweet and get all the gunk off my feet! The manager here is always really friendly and kind and I always notice him doing his best to accomodate walk-ins. The thing that brings this place down a notch for me? Before putting the shellac on my nails I was instructed to go wash my hands in the bathroom. In order to get there I had to walk through a pretty gross staff room and the laundry room...like really gross. That being said, I would have been able to look past it if my nails hadn't cracked so soon after. However, my toes and eyebrows still look fierce, so I guess I'll survive. Ohhhhh first world problems.

So, when we came back home, my wife took on this mission of trying to find an equivalent spa experience that was as peaceful and beautiful as those overseas, but not crazy Canadian expensive. Only You Esthetics was such a place. It is a picturesque little house on Hawthorne Street with incadescent lighting and curtains in the windows. And inside, it still maintains a homey feel. It has all the spa treatments you would ever want - massage, that stone thing where they put rocks on your back, face massages and treatments that reverse aging!, manicures, pedicures and - yikes! - waxing. Pedicures are $38, but you can spoil yourself with a pedicure featuring massage and a hot bath for your feet. That runs about $58 - not too bad considering it cost $40 or so in Korea. Spoil your lady friend today - so she can spoil you later!
