I haven't had a haircut in quite some time and was searching for a new salon around my neighbourhood. I am so happy that I found this salon and even happier that it was through Yelp (thank you thank you Yelpers)!! At the recommendation of Chelsea, the receptionist, I booked in with Luc for a haircut. I have long thick hair and was reassured that Luc was my man. And boy let me tell you, he really knows how to make length look great!!
As a new client I completed a questionnaire regarding which hair care products I use - and my stylist actually read through it! I felt that this was the beginning of a great relationship because he wanted to get a better idea of how I treat/style my hair on a regular basis. Since I'm letting my hair grow out, we spent a decent amount of time talking about the overall style and cut. What I loved the most is that Luc made sure that I was in charge of how much was going to be trimmed and asked for my input before doing anything. Of course I was open to suggestions but in the end I knew that he was delivering exactly what we discussed. And if there was anything that I suggested that wouldn't work with my hair he took the time to explain what would happen as a result. What a guy!
I left with an amazing style that has a noticeably better shape and isn't too much shorter than when I came in. I can still grow it out to my desired length without it taking ages! Hooray!! Luc is a really cool, honest guy and an awesome stylist. Seriously ladies, if you have long hair and you want a reasonably priced and amazing haircut I highly suggest coming here and asking for him. He is also a Redken colour specialist and the go-to guy for Ombres (colour is definitely next on my list here).
Salon Escape is Yorkville quality and styles without the attitude or the price. Yay Salon Escape!
