| - Decided in December I needed to change things up. Went super dramatic with a mohawk. Now, finding a stylist who can do women's short styles is a daunting task. I got the cut at a place at Yonge and Eglinton, and it was just "okay".
When I needed a trim, called Ferraro as it's a few blocks from home. I specifically asked for someone with experience with women's short cuts. "No problem," they said, "you're looking for Patrick."
Patrick has a background in barbering, so he knows short hair. Doesn't matter if it's on a man's or a woman's head, the technique will be the same. He did a great job, and I've returned several times, never disappointed. Patrick also keeps notes on his clients, and reviews them before every appointment. He listens and chats with you in the chair before shampooing (very important!) and makes sure he understands what you want.
The biggest issue I've encountered with stylists and my short hair, is that they always cut it too short. They all do this, whether you're paying $65 or $120. Patrick is the exception and has not made this mistake. You can fix too long, you can't fix too short. He is conservative but very skilled and understands hair and how it will fall/sit.
As another poster mentioned, the pricing is the definition of reasonable. Oh, and the staff is friendly and unpretentious. No egos, just good service.
