    Uneven sideburns, indicative of the overall rather sloppy cut
    BeenHere D.

    I've been meaning to add this review for a while, from about 2 years ago, for the first haircut for my son after the pandemic re-openings. Most places were booked solid, so we decided for the Head Shoppe at HSC. See photo of the uneven sideburns that were indicative of the overall rather sloppy cut.

    First day after dye (1)
    Maali A.

    This is by far the worst experience I have ever had from a salon. I don't believe they truly cared for my interest but only their's. I asked for a violet dye, and went for a consultation with a hairstylist, and while she was so sure it would work and last 6 weeks. It lasted 1 wash, and turned orange. It didn't fade to lighter purple, but to orange. I was opposed to bleach but she said that there is no way she could do it without it, and then blamed my hair because it was "a sponge" that it sucks colour in and then spits it back out. I am so frustrated and unsatisfied, and wish I could give no stars because it deserves none! Worst part? I did not get a proper face-to-face apology from her or her manager who was in on the situation. They were both unprofessional about this whole situation, and they only gave me a refund on half ($194.35) of what I spent ($352.94). They were more focused about getting rid of my problem, not to satisfy me as a customer. In the pictures attached, was the 1st day after she dyed it, and the second picture is the 1st wash.

    Coworkers making fun of me are calling this "The Combover".

    I feel compelled to remove a Remedy Spa star based on my experiences here in the last 6 months…read more What with being a pretty big fan of this spa when it initially opened I was (evidently) one of the first people to end up on the spam list. I remember why I had initially forked over my contact details to RS and it was because they occasionally have open house events where you can try products and even receive free (micro session) services like paraffin treatments. Uhh, free spa services!? Show me the dotted line! Several months later I did however start to notice that I was receiving multiple promotional offers/month in my email as well as being sent junk mail in snail mail version! Haughtily, I informed RS that I wanted to receive no more junk and yet somehow still receive the occasional email... At least the paper waste has stopped... I guess? My second gripe with RS was over an encounter I had in late July. I even booked this 50% off wax session from Vancouver, weeks in advance... I was THAT pumped about being back to the land of reasonably priced lady services! Upon arriving, I had an extremely awkward conversation with my esthetician about what *type* of service I would be getting. Trying to cajole someone into ripping MORE hair from between your legs is, I assure you, uncomfortable even for an extrovert. Perhaps you have had this happen before? Where you have been inadvertently booked into a smaller time window than your desired service will take? The real crux in all of this was that whomever I had booked with had not asked which service I wanted and what ultimately came to light was that my wax lady had NEVER DONE A FULL BIKINI WAX BEFORE. She was therefor too nervous to try on me (hey, me too once I found this out!) and I ended up paying for and leaving with a) not the service I had wanted and b) a rather crooked and sloppy job upon at home inspection. To be fair, we've all started new jobs before and I guess there's no school for bikini waxing with faux hippy bush dummies to practice on but come on... I hope my next experience at Remedy is more customer oriented! I will for sure be clarifying repeatedly in future which service I want as well as requesting a more experienced wax-er.

When I reached the tastefully designed landing, the smell of warm citrus was like a veil, calming me instantaneously and giving me the desire to be fully pampered. I entered into the small space and was greeted by sunlight and shelves of properly placed products. The lady at the desk was on the tele, so I grabbed a pamphlet and perused the skin care goodies. While reaching for the price list, I noticed an assortment of alcohol bottles and martini glasses - I was wooed right then and there into wanting a Sex & the City moment to call my own. The Farmhouse Fresh products looked sassy and sweet, with yummy smells and gorgeous packaging. There was a foot treatment called the Honey Heel Glaze, selling for $24, which looked like a lovely product. Remedy also carries OPI nail products and a variety of other soothing and rejuvenating luxury items to make your epidermis glow! I loved the look and feel of this place and was glad I opted to head up the stairs to check this place out. The smell alone is enough to calm even the most wound-up of souls, and should be a service in itself. I adore this Facial Bar and would love to have a treatment here.

Seriously tho, my dog can chew my hair better than this. The lady certainly didn't have any skills and I doubt that they are even trained, and yet the owner claims that they are professional Korean haircut. LOL. She barely speaks English, it's extremely difficult to communicate. I saw the reviews on Google and decided to go, but now that I'm reading it thru, most of the five stars looks suspicious. This place has NO SERVICE, NO SKILLS, and NO INTEGRITY. I will NEVER EVER go to this place again and none of you should, if you don't wanna waste your almost $70 for nothing :) I wrote this on google, complained to the people who work there, but I still get no apologies till this day. They DO NOT care!

The day on my treatment, my hair turned neon yellow and they tired to fix it with a toner. I left the salon with green hair and zero compensation! I obviously didn't pay one red penny. It took me 3 years to grow my hair out to grey and they ruined it in one go. I paid 250 dollars for another salon to fix their mistake and now my hair is no longer grey. And they don't' even care! I will never recommend this salon. They are completely incompetent.

They use the same power laser and it is literally torture (if you are AFAB I'm sure it didn't hurt at all). I had two sessions, cried after both, and thought I would have to give up on this. The pain was so intense I can't overstate it. I do have coarse hair (and a lot of it) so maybe if you don't have much facial hair, but still. They are clearly tuned to the finer hair of AFAB, which is fine, but I had no idea this level of pain isn't normal. Go to a place that *has* electrolysis, but don't actually get electrolysis to start (one I switched to is Sunswirl in darmouth) they are much more medical and actually understand different hair types. Not only was the prep work more throughout (making sure it's shaved close enough, cleaned, etc) but the pain was actually tolerable. They will actually respond to how painful it is for you, and adjust. Oh ya, the price is also insane. The other place I'm at is *less* *without* any discount (less than dermaenvy's 50% discount for gender care) and they do also have some discount for gender care on packages of 3+
