| - So I've given myself a rule that I'm going to a place at least twice before I give it a review. This is because in the past I have been going to places, been pretty pleased, written stellar reviews and then gone back and been less than pleased...and having to awkwardly revise those great reviews.
I have been to a few different locations of Civello before and been quite happy, but I have found it to be on the expensive side and it's also a bit out of the way for me, so that led me to begin the search for another place. I did get my wedding hair and makeup done there though and was very happy.
But let's move onto NOW. Here's the thing: If you want quality, you MAY have to pay a bit more. Now that I've gone all over Toronto searching for a hair salon, I actually don't find Civello to be that expensive. I mean, consider that you are stuck wearing your hair every day of your life, right? If you had to wear the same pair of jeans every day for 3-4 months, would you buy the $40 pair, or the $200 pair? EXACTLY! Except it's really not crazy expensive and I don't know where I got that idea from exactly....
Okay, so I'm getting off topic.
I went to Civello the first time (since I got my hair styled three years ago for my wedding) at the beginning of the summer. Now there are LOTS of people that work at Civello, so I almost don't want to say who I went with, because I'm worried that everyone is going to start flocking to Civello and demanding this one stylist and I'll never be able to get an appointment ever again (yes, yes, #firstworldproblems). But it wouldn't be fair to him, to not say and it's maybe a little silly to think my yelp review has so much influence on the Toronto community. So yeah, they put me with Byron.
I feel so selfless!
I had some crappy pictures of what I wanted on my phone, but he worked with them and me. In the end it was gorgeous. Seriously, I wish I had taken pictures it was so pretty.
Approx 4 months later and I'm back again, this time with a few adjustments in mind.
Once again, I think my hair looks great.
Besides quality hair, Civello is quick to offer coffee, tea or water. They also give lovely back massages while your hair is setting. Or Byron was getting fresh. Who's to say?
Everyone there is really lovely, but Byron may be one of the better hairdressers I have had. Conversation feels more natural and he has some sort of weird, superpower memory for people, which is both amazing and unsettling. Either way it makes conversation a pleasure. And of course he does hair well, which is why we go to hair salons at the end of the day. Life isn't REALLY like Steel Magnolias...thank God.
I'm starting to feel weird, like I'm creating some creepy fan club, so I'll just leave it at that. Civello = good.
