However, my shellac was just slightly better than the one I had at another more low end place, two weeks ago, but cost twice as much for the same service: removal, manicure and shellac. The shellac on a couple of nails wasn't nicely shaped despite paying for a manicure too. The shellac was painted over the cuticle in a couple of spots. The shellac started peeling on three nails after 1.5 weeks. I had a shellac done in downtown Vancouver for 2/3 of the price that neatly lasted 3 weeks. Giving it a 3 because the service and atmosphere was great but not the nail job.

Loved this experience. The shellac French manicure looked perfect and still does 10 days later.read more

I booked myself a very last minute Hot Stone Massage to help my cause, and I cannot express enough how overly happy I am with my treatment. Danielle respected my request for a silent treatment, only talking to check in on how I was feeling. The massage was THE BEST RELAXATION MASSAGE I HAVE EVER HAD! I left relaxed without feeling drowsy, and my nervous system felt less anxious, exactly what I wanted. Danielle's intuitive treatment anticipated my every need. And I cannot wait to come back. 10/10 would recommend!

I got my hair cut by Hilton again just a few days ago and I could not be happier. If you tell him…read moreto only take 1/4 inch, he takes exactly that. In this case, I stated, I do not care what length you take off, but to take off all of the dead ends. I wanted to leave with totally fresh, non split ends hair. I also have extremely curly hair, with a cowlick, and he always makes sure to make my hair look even when he cuts it. He understands that wet curly hair 1 inch is actually more like 2 for the dry curly look. He also does a great dye job, and will recommend things to you based on your colour tone, your hair, whether it can withstand certain treatments, and also will ask your general day to day look to make sure you look great at all times. I made the mistake one time of seeing another hairdresser to touch up my bangs when he was on vacation, and I learned my lesson because I looked like the Three Stooges! I will never let another human touch my hair, Hilton only! I am sure the other stylists are just as good at this salon, but I can't vouch for them as I will not see anyone else. But if you're my curly crew, trust me your hair is safe in Hilton's hands.

I got a hair botox treatment there, and not only did it not do what it was supposed to do (keep it…read moresmooth and not-frizzy in humid weather) it changed my natural colour (which I has asked about in advance, because I didn't want this to happen, and the owner assured me it wouldn't). My hair is also damaged, dry and much less shiny than it was before the treatment. I asked for a refund (whole or partial) for this extremely expensive treatment that destroyed my hair and the owner refused and told me the colour hadn't changed (despite everyone who actually knows me seeing that it had) and that he sees hair "a lot more damaged" than mine. Though I don't dye my hair and it started out extremely healthy, so of course he's seen more damaged hair! I never claimed to have the most damaged hair in the city, just that my hair is now damaged. Would never go back, nor recommend. Awful experience, especially how flip the owner was when I told him my concerns. Edited to add the owner's response is patently untrue. I absolutely asked about my hair colour not changing prior to the appointment because I know keratin changes natural hair colour and wanted to ensure this wouldn't happen with the hair botox, (he was there when I went in for the treatment and to suggest otherwise is a lie), and even post-trim my hair remains damaged, a different colour, and notably, this expensive treatment didn't work. As for the photos, he took them without my consent when I went into talk to him about how upset I was about my hair. I haven't seen them, but it was certainly not "throughout the process" as he claimed. Stay away from this salon!!!
