This was the BEST HAIRCUT EXPERIENCE I have had in my 9 years of living in Montreal. In the past I've had nothing but rude receptionists/salon owners, impatient stylists, unflattering shapes, burnt ears/neck & overpriced cuts since I moved here.
~3 wks ago I got an amazing haircut from Sabrina- what really impressed me was how well she listened to my hair routine & asked me before using products in my hair, since I tend to avoid blowdrying, overshampooing & products containing alcohol/plastics/etc since I have fine & super-dry yet frizzy red hair. I felt so comfortable & confident that she would do a great job, and she did! It looks great curly, straight, pinned up, braided, and oh-so-easy to do before work!
Kudos as well to the sweet receptionist! It was an early appointment, so I was definitely still a little asleep, but she welcomed me very warmly & with a smile, helped me stash my winter gear, and gave me the most AMAZING cup of coffee while I was waiting for my turn.
There was absolutely NO judgmental attitude or pretentiousness to this place, everyone was chill, friendly, enjoying their work & jamming to some great tunes.
Thanks alleviating my salon anxiety! See you in 6 months, Oblic Villeray!
