| - Came here on a Saturday night before going out in Toronto. I had originally purchased the Groupon, however they said that Saturday was the only night they didn't accept Groupons so I ended up just paying for the full service. First of all, I LOVED the decor and concept of the salon! It's decorated beautifully and it feels open, clean and luxurious. There's a bar in the entrance, and sinks and pedicure, manicure and blow dry stations on the other side.
The person who did my hair was super friendly and I really enjoyed chatting with her. I wish she had asked what I wanted before I started though, because I prefer big curls in my hair. She put manual rollers into my hair to curl it that way, and it ended up coming out a bit flat. Perhaps I should've been a little more assertive in the beginning, however she kept saying "it looks so good" and I felt bad saying anything otherwise. My hair did smell amazing afterwards though, and the hairstyle I guess was ok.
I don't necessarily think it's worth the $60 to come here for a blow out, when I feel like I could've done a better job at home. The Groupon is worth it though, since it's half price and you get a free glass of wine! I don't think I'll be back unless there's a really really special occasion, and if then, I'll certainly be more assertive about what I want.
