The threading was not bad but the prices
were exorbitant. AU$50 for upper lip and eyebrow ($25 each). On a positive
note, very conveniently located in the city.

They are supposed to be
colour specialists, but after showing them the exact color I wanted in
THEIR magazine, they got it completely wrong. They ruined my shirt with
dye and when I went back to complain about the wrong colour highlights, I
had to insist at least five times until they reluctantly patched up the
front of my hair with the colour originally asked for. No offer to
pay for the shirt though. |

For the first time ever, I
was not happy with the highlights from my regular stylist. When I asked
for a correction the salon was very accommodating. My regular stylist was
not available so I was booked with a different colourist. She reassured me
that it happens sometimes and that I have every right to be satisfied. My
regular stylist never made me feel badly either and I was extremely happy
with the outcome. As a result they have me as a devoted and loyal client. |

I was absolutely appalled by
the treatment I received when I went in to have a correction done. I was
not happy with a color and cut my regular stylist had done and requested
to have it corrected by someone else. Their technical director treated me
horribly and made the comment "will anything make you happy?" I
was made to feel like a criminal for complaining. They did refund the
service, however I was humiliated and am now walking around with
horrendous hair. |

Eyebrow Threading. I
have had my eyebrow done for over 10 years but this was the worst
experience I have EVER had. My eyebrows are now uneven and I have
been spending 2 days trying to fix her mistakes. She also left many
strays. This salon is not recommended at all. |

I told Bina not to use wax
- I wanted just threading and she didn't listen. Because I use Retinol A
cream the wax pulled off my skin. She didn't give me a refund nor did she
feel responsible - these things happen was her response. |

Kiren is the best when it
comes to threading. I have been going to her for 2 years. She's shapes
your brows just right, not too thick and not too thin. I have had Honey
and Stella do my brows before, but their not as good as Kiren. If your
going to do threading, go to Kiren. |

The only
person at the Magic Room that can do a decent job at threading is Honey
(Edmonton St. location). She's excellent at what she does. The worst thing
about the Magic Room is how overpriced it is, particularly for a service
like threading. |

They gave me highlights
that were about an inch away from the roots, a disgusting colour - not at
all like the picture I brought in. and that completely made my hair like
straw. I brought yet another picture to show the bangs i wanted- long and
thin like Tyra Banks. What I got were bangs about half an inch long that
stuck straight up. Also, it took absolutely forever. |

I just moved
to Toronto from Vancouver and had to leave behind the Queen of the
Brazilian Wax a.k.a. Jacqueline from Opus Salon. I was nervous to try out
another aesthetician and then I found Nina at the Ambiance Day Spa. Her
braziians are fast, painless, detailed and run for about $50. The price
may seem on the high side but it's worth paying in order to get someone
with experience. |

Eyelash extensions. Left
eyelash set fell off 15 minutes after leaving salon, and was told they
would last 4 weeks. When I went back to get my money back, they were rude
and didnt even appologize for my 2 hr. sitting time. They didnt even offer
to rmove the right eyelash set. They told me to get them off myself with
vaseline. |

Hair cut. The stylist did
not listen to anything I wanted done. I wanted to keep my length and I
went from waist-length to shoulder length hair. I was not asked what kind
of hairstyle I wanted, or whether or not I wanted bangs (which i was

I wanted a
cut and semi-permanent hair colour. I was quoted €50 for the cut
and approx €40-€45 for the semi. The bill came out to €115.00 which
I paid out of embarrassment. I realized they had charged me €75.00 for
the semi. After 2 weeks plus I plucked up the courage to phone the salon
and tell the head of the salon that I was not happy. His answer was
that he uses Aveda, that's how much it costs and he was giving no
explanation as to why I was charged so much. I would never go back
there!!! |

experience. I had a girl called Gemma who listened to me and talked me
through a few options, methods, and prices. She was warm and friendly and
put me at ease. I got a full head of foils and they are amazing. It
cost a 135 and got my makeup done for free at the end. They use Aveda and
I must say my hair feels great. |

They have ruined my hair. I ask for
their opinion on how to achieve dark red highlights and they
advised highlights (yellowish white) followed by cellophane
(Red). After the procedure the highlights were extreme red,
not the agreed upon color. I complained and they repeated the cellophane
with a dark brown color, which they promised to last for 3 months. After
barely a week, the dark brown color was wearing off and the bright red
color started to show. After a few more days, some of my hair retained the
bright red color and some began to wear off and is showing the yellowish
white color. In 2 weeks, my bright red color became orange and some are
almost white. Not to mention, my hair was severely damaged is
falling off .
