I live and work in the core of the city, but I will travel up to Evoke if time permits, simply because they are that good.
The staff - super pleasant and always welcoming.
The stylist - I actually get my haircut by one of their colour technicians, Kelsey, who does a great cut. Many of my girl friends also use her for colour, and they rave about how much they enjoy the result.
Great place. Highly recommend.
