| - I am sorry but I do not know the average price at salons for hair cuts, but when I rated the prices at Vescada, I was using my own instincts. I do not feel that paying $80 to have nice hair for 6-12 months is too much. About 2 years ago, I decided I wanted to try a short hair cut (above the shoulders for the first time in more than 20 years. I had actual pictures from the internet for how I wanted to look along with a picture of how my bangs should look. Claudio (one of the owners) was able to duplicate the EXACT look. He did not try to tell me which products I would "need" to get the same look.
His customer service was to say the least, demonstrative of his experience (from conversations, and not knowing his exact age, it seems that he's been working at this since he was very young). When I went back for another hair cut, I asked him about a hair curling wand (think curling iron without the clamp) and he was kind enough to suggest places and even offered to call someone he knew. On my next visit, he advised he was unsuccessful, which I did not doubt since I couldn't find a place in Toronto selling online either.
My daughter liked my hair cuts so she wanted to try the place. He reduced the pricing to 30-35. This was a surprise as I was not aware that a 12-year old could get a reduced price. Upon my next visit with my daughter, the price was 35-40. I didn't mind the inconsistent pricing because he was very careful with my girl. She's not very forthcoming so he had to probe a lot to get a better idea about what she would want/like. It would seem that it's easier to just cut her hair, ask once and pretend he didn't notice she didn't have an opinion.
My girl friend just got a hair cut there last week./ She went from having hair down to her behind to a shorter than the shoulder cut. She's a hair stylist too. Let's just say she's loving her cut and a returning customer.
If you need an updo, I would recommend Kelly. Unfortunately, she's really keen on selling hair extensions, but it's not like she's very aggressive about it. I find that the final product is worth the sales pitch and I mean, it's better that she's selling an alternative service than pushing products down my throat. She did an interesting job working well with the highlights in my hair to add depth.
I've had many many bad hair experiences and I highly recommend Vescada if you've never had one to prevent the pain, and if you've had bad experiences, Claudio can heal them. One thing though, he seems to be able 15 minutes late each time so bring entertainment.
