I've been coming to this salon fairly regularly for the past 6+ years (since they open) and I must say that I've never been disappointed.
Located in a very convenience location near Yonge and Sheppard, Salon de Elephant is a trendy, open concept salon that has amazing atmosphere, great music, warm and comfortable decoration. They also offer a wide range of beverages you can choose from while you are waiting for your stylist.
I always have Karen as my stylish, we usually sit down and chat about what I want so she can make expert recommendation based on my hair type. We then moved to the back of the shop to have hair wash and head massage. I really like the hot towel service, it is totally relaxing.
I would describe Salon de Elephant itself is a relaxing experience. It's not very often that you will find a professional who really cares and puts a lot of effort into all the little details, and I think Karen does a really good job on that.
The place takes appointments and walk-ins, but I would recommend booking ahead of time (They have online booking!), since they do get quite busy and most of the time u may not able to have your service on the same visit.
Book your cut with Karen and you won't be disappointed.
