I booked a women's cut with Sam and he is SO talented! I asked for a trim of my curtain bangs, adding in/trimming up layers, and thinning out overall of my heavy Korean hair. I live in NY so I have a U.S. bank and wasn't able to pay the $20 deposit because I don't have e-Transfer, but I emailed the salon and they said it was no problem and not to worry about it. I was able to use my Visa credit card (they also take Mastercard) to pay. If you do pay the deposit, $20 is deducted from your total. The hair washing station is really relaxing, with lie-flat chairs so your neck doesn't hurt and sparkling lights on the ceiling. I'm so happy with my cut ($80 CAD before tip) and I think I got a great value for the level of service. I highly recommend Sam and this salon, his technique was so meticulous and I love my cut. read more

I booked my 3 year old daughter here for her first haircut! I had a recommendation to book with Bella. The salon is reallly conveniently located, truly an excellent spot. Our appointment was for 11 am but at 1030, Amanda text us that Bella was stuck on a GO Bus and wouldn't be able to start until 1130. Normally that's not a big issue, but I was dealing with really tight timelines because of nap times and attention spans, so I couldn't just burn 30 more minutes than expected. I explained this to Amanda, and she said if I could get there soon, she would cut my daughter's hair. The salon opens at 11, but Amanda started with us at 1045. The level of customer service was unreal. Friendly, accommodating, apologetic and I got what I came there for - a sophisticated haircut for my daughter that wasn't just a "who cares you're a kid" cut. The salon is beautiful inside, the sparkling lights about the hair washing station was a nice touch. At the very end, Bella did show up and she seemed nice as well, but Amanda really came through for us. We will be back!! read more

Jared gave me the most boring haircut. He seemed like he couldnt be bothered when I went to him. Despite asking him not to use any hot tools on me, he lazily went ahead and straightened my hair with a straightener. I was looking at my phone and by the time I looked up he was half way burning my hair with straightener. Hated the experience and never again going back to this dude. Thought I'd give someone new a shot, but he seems like the type to only suck up to certain kind of customers. Typical. read more

This is one of the best salons in Toronto! Any review that says otherwise or is less than 5 stars must be fake because I have going here for almost 2 years and they always do an amazing job! Even when I came in with uneven box dyed hair from lockdown, they did everything they could to fix it and give me healthy hair. They are honest about what can be done to hair to avoid damage, and the customer service is exemplary. Pricing is similar to most salons in Toronto, with even better service and attention to the client's wishes. read more

I've been to CL salon for two years now. I absolutely love the outcome of my hair every time. Rachel is one the best hair stylist and she really cares about her customer. My hair was completely dark and she tries to get the best outcome from my request with the consideration of the health of my hair. All CL salon really takes care of their customers and really give their professional advice for what's the best for me. I feel it's very unfair for some people posting negative review towards a local business that is doing their best to creative something great here. Just want to post this review and I'd give CL salon 10 stars!!! read more

After years of home-dye kits and destroying my hair, I decided it was time to treat myself! Was visiting family in Canada who told me amazing things about this salon, so I decided to give it a try. Amanda did an amazing job with my hair. She not only revived my hair, but got the color down to exactly what I wanted! She was attentive and kind. The entire experience was so comfortable. I live in NY and for the price, you can't beat what you get. My hair will be waiting until my next visit to get a treatment! read more

Two fantastic haircuts today at CL salon! My daughter and I were able to book a day in advance and were both extremely pleased with our cuts. She was growing out an undercut and needed to make the length consistent. I hd about 3 inches taken off and added some long layers and thinned out some bulk. Prices were reasonable and the shoulder massages included were amazing. read more

Went to this salon after finding it on Yelp, and got a cut with Shizu that exceeded all of my expectations! I went in for a pretty drastic cut (in my opinion, I usually play it safe with trims) of 3-4 inches. She helped give me recommendations, such as thinning the bottom part of my hair, that really made it come together -- I was really scared of getting my haircut somewhere new (I'm not from Toronto and was visiting over break), especially with Asian hair. Shizu really took her time with my haircut, checking in with me and asking me how I felt about it. I didn't feel rushed at all, and it was a nice change from the usual crossing my fingers and hoping it turns out well in the end. The salon has a really amazing atmosphere, the cost of the cut includes hot drinks, a wash, and even a brief scalp/shoulder massage! This was a really exceptional experience, I wish I lived here so I could come back and see Shizu and CL Salon all the time. read more

CL Salon - post-haircut! - Hair Salons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

So happy with the experience I had coming here last Saturday! Amanda has been my go to girl for the last few years, and she always exceeds my expectations. The salon is brand new and gorgeous, with a spacious layout and is VERY clean. Lighting is great as well (great for selfies LOL). One thing I love about this salon is the washing chairs are so comfy, and don't strain your neck. They also give you a blanket to make you feel extra cozy and relaxed! I liked the consultation Amanda did with me before hand, she ensured we were both on the same page with what I wanted. She is very thorough! The salon is also super convenient to get to. I travelled by TTC, and it is only steps away from Bathurst station. I left the salon feeling relaxed and obsessed with my new haircut. I will be going back in a few weeks for a full colour! Definitely give this salon a try, you will not be disappointed! read more

My new go-to salon after moving back into the city last year. Amanda is the best and helped me transition from long hair to short ! Their online booking makes it easy to come back for a bang trim whenever I need it. Great service and talented staff! read more

I've found my go-to salon & stylist! After a poor experience at another business, I decided to visit CL Salon for a keratin smoothing treatment with Sam Shum. TLDR - just like almost every review you'll find on the internet: 5 stars! So I've had Keratin & Brazilian Blowout treatments done in the past (in the USA) and with great results - but my last one (from a different Toronto business) was so poor that it had both me and Sam questioning whether my hair had somehow changed. Nevertheless, Sam worked diligently with care and attention, and the Keratin treatment came out perfectly! My hair looked sleek and straight walking out of the salon, and I'm also happy to report after my 3rd day wash that it still looks perfect! (Yay!) Also thought I'd mention that the salon follows all standard COVID protocol - masks, questionnaire, temperature checks, etc. They have lockers to store your personal items. The space is bright, comfortable and clean. And their full-recline washing area with starry ceilings was nice! A great experience overall - I will be back as a regular to see Sam whom I would highly recommend! read more

I have been going to Samantha for the past couple of days, and not only love her work but also her personality!

Still 3 stars. It wasn't a miscommunication. It wasn't a misunderstanding. These were direct statements. But I still wish them well. read more

I found CL Salon through a friend and now it is my favourite hair salon ever. I had the best experience here and I felt so taken care of. Everyone in the salon is so professional and welcoming. If anyone is on yelp just casually scoping out a place, this is your place! I've been to a few good salons like Maya and Chura but my experience at CL was absolutely phenomenal. Definitely worth every penny spent (and they have 20% off all services until the end of 2018 for their opening!) Amanda is my homegirl!! She sat with me for a hair consultation and she recommended me the keratin treatment for my frizzy hair before I decided to do any more colouring. Absolutely life changing. I'm so happy with the result and the whole experience I had here. This is the first time I've walked away from the salon absolutely loving my hair and a month later, I still feel the same. Amanda did an amazing job with the treatment and haircut. She even did a scalp and shoulder massage (which were amazing). She's really knowledgeable, experienced and she specifically recommended me things that would suit my hair. I would recommend her and this salon to anyone looking for a quality salon. I was so happy with the result and my whole experience that I ran and gave Amanda a hug before I left the salon. Absolutely in love with this place! I'm so happy for Amanda and her team. I'm going to support the heck out of this place because it is an absolute gem! read more

This was the best hair experience I've had so far!I decided to give this salon a try after reading so many good reviews here!I booked a partial highlight with Amanda and she went beyond my expectation! Everyone is giving me a compliment for my hair colour! So many of my friends are going to book an appointment with her because of what they saw in me. Moreover the salon itself is really nice! It is a well decorated salon with the best hair washing station! You will love the overall experience here! Oh btw she also gave me a great shoulder massage! I am already so excited to get my next appointment! read more

Discovered via yelp Booking process was quite seamless and rapid. The space is big, airy and the soundtrack was fun. Especially the hair washing section was calming and dark and the roof was studded with sparkling stars. Nice touch. A shoulder massage is offered and I don't know why anyone would turn it down. Amanda did a great job and coached me thru a slightly more trendy version of the 'do I was originally planning. Glad I took the chance. End results were great. read more

Just like you, I looked on yelp to try and find a salon for my mop of a hair. I stumbled across this gem as it was located down the street from my boyfriends place. Even better they offer a 20% off all services as they had just opened!! The first few times I had Sam and he was great but this review is all about Amanda. I walked in at noon with blah hair and I walked out 8 hours later for fabulous gorgeous balayage ombré blonde curls. Yes, Amanda spent 8 whole hours backcombing, painting, foiling, washing. The whole nine yards. She was meticulous and thorough and very knowledgeable. I will be back for a second session as she didn't want to comprise the integrity of my hair and I can't wait to see the results. So if you want to be pampered and leave with amazing hair, CL is the place to check out. read more

I had a relaxing and luxurious experience at CL Salon. I underwent a complete hair transformation. I had my hair cut, coloured  washed and styled by Amanda. Amanda helped me fine-tune the idea I had in mind for my hair. The end results were beyond what I imagined. I absolutely love how my hair turned out. The service was extremely friendly, thoughtful and the staff went over and beyond to ensure I was comfortable. The location was easy to find and access. Will most definitely be going back. read more

CL Salon - Got a cut, colour, wash & style by Amanda. I went from natural black to a blonde balayage. I absolutely love the new look! Thanks Amanda!! - Hair Salons Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I had nothing to complain. Place is beautiful, nice and clean. I cut my hair short and it looks amazing Samantha did a really good job and she is super nice! Will come back read more

Just had my third appointment at CL recently and I can say that it is definitely well worth the visit. I've been to salons all around Toronto, the U.S., and Asia and I've been searching for a shop that leaves me as satisfied as the ones that I went to back in Asia. CL definitely hit that spot! I've had great haircuts with both Amanda and Sam; not to mention the amazing service that's provided. The interior design is great (big fan of the modern decor), honestly instagrammable. Service is great - beyond just a wash, I was given the choice of tea, coffee, or water, and a chocolate at the door when I was leaving. Finally, the cut! I don't have much to say about this aside from the fact that I was very satisfied. It's rare that I'm 100% happy with a haircut but I leave CL feeling happy each time. But don't just trust the Yelp reviews, make sure you go and check them out for yourself :) read more

Absolutely love my ashy balayage by Amanda! I came to her as a recommendation from my sister. The salon is very nice and spacious , enough privacy to chit chat. I love the hair washing station, it's so comfortable that I fell asleep while getting my hair washed. Everyone at the salon was so friendly, kept making sure I was well taken care of. They even made me Ovatine drinks! My hair is tricky to deal with, but Amanda listened to what I wanted and gave me exactly that! I'm so happy with how my hair turned out. read more

Ahhh! So happy I found this salon! I had been getting my haircuts from Amanda for almost two years at another salon and was devastated when I found she had left, not knowing where she'd gone to. Amanda is incredibly talented and has taken the time and care to know my hair and my preferences. She goes through a thorough consult, listens, and provides honest feedback on what she thinks is best for the client. I am extremely picky when it comes to my hair but I trust her. Needless to say, I was ecstatic when a recent Google search led me back to her! Her new salon is conveniently located by Bathurst station and is spacious, clean, well-designed, and inviting. There are several touches that reflect Amanda's care and attention to detail, like the starry sky lights above the wash stations and blankets. Everyone I interacted with at the salon was friendly and attentive. I don't do much with my hair. I like to be very low maintenance so it is important that the cuts are flattering to my face shape, voluminous and falls nicely with minimal to no styling. I think this is the true test for a good haircut and Amanda consistently knocks it out of the park. It looks good when I leave the salon and grows in nicely. As a bonus, I always enjoy chatting and catching up with Amanda so the 1.5-2 hour appointment flies by. Highly recommend! So happy and proud of you for your new salon, Amanda. See you again! read more

I was so grateful to come across CL Salon. I needed to get my hair fixed (it was cut recently but it looked horrible!) Amanda did an amazing job and my hair looked fabulous after! I also felt much better too. You can imagine what a nice haircut will do for your confidence! I enjoyed the whole experience - I was offered a drink upon arrival and the cut included a nice shampoo and wash and an amazing scalp massage. I enjoyed talking to Amanda as well - and the salon is gorgeous! I will definitely be back and would recommend this salon to anyone looking for a new place! read more

Got my hair cut and keratin done by Sam. He was wonderful! Listened to what I wanted and delivered. He gives you your space during the process so if you like meditating or getting lost in your own thoughts while someone does stuff to your hair - Sam's your guy. Besides - so far the keratin has actually been really good. I just wash and air dry and hair still looks pretty great!! read more

Just finished my cut here with Anna and wanted to write a review while the experience is still fresh in my mind! Was looking for a salon in the area and found CL on yelp, called in the morning and was lucky enough to book an appointment for later in the afternoon, the process was quick and easy. When I arrived, Anna took my coat, put me in a robe, seated me in my chair and brought me a drink and magazines - wonderful! She asked me what I wanted, was very careful and took her time (a good thing!) throughout the whole process, ensuring everything was to my liking as we went along. Gave me THE BEST hair wash/scalp massage I've ever had and even offered me a complimentary shoulder massage after the wash. Was also offered chocolates during my service and at checkout - impeccable service! Anna and colleagues are just the sweetest. The salon is fairly new but they're doing everything right. I don't usually write reviews and I risk having to share Anna with others now, but I want them to continue growing and to stick around. The salon is spacious, clean and beautiful and everyone running the place are incredibly kind, respectful, and professional. Will definitely be returning and advising friends. Loved my cut and can't beat the price especially with their current 15% off new year's special. Great value. read more

I got my haircut done from cl salon and Bella did a great job. I was not sure about it at first because i had a terrible experience at some place and so i wanted to get my hair fixed. I wanted a particular kind of bob cut and i am so happy i found CL salon. Before the haircut i thought $60 is expensive but considering my experience i this its rightly priced. I love my haircut now and I can't thank enough for fixing my hair. If anyone wants to get a bob or cut their hair short i would recommend Bella. The hair wash, massage and haircut was all worth the money. read more

Excellent! Sam Shum is the reason I'll be back and have recommended him to others often already. Lovely, friendly stylist and talented. Got a great trim and style a couple months back, will be rebooking soon. read more

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! I absolutely loved my experience here. I had my hair cut, washed and styled by Samantha and she was amazing. She listened to ALL my concerns and delivered the exact haircut I was looking for. She is not pretentious and truly loves what she does. Trust me, I've had my fair share of terrible cuts and was nervous as heck but I am truly happy with the results. I normally don't do reviews but felt I needed to for Samantha :) Highlights: 1. AMAZING scalp and shoulder massage. Let me stress the AMAZING part. 2. Haircut that looks great straight and curled. 3. Great convo 4. Great ambience. Salon is brand new and well designed. 5. Friendly staff Definitely planning on going back :) read more

Found this place on Yelp, and at first I didn't trust the 5 star rating. It seemed too good to be true. But it is totally deserved! Sam did a full bleach and color for me (I had long roots plus the last vestiges of an old dye job). While the process is always long, he was very efficient and detail oriented. He took just as much time as was needed to do the job right. I'm always bad at making small talk with my stylists, but we were mostly quiet and I didn't feel awkward at all - something I really appreciated. He got a gorgeous even bleach on my whole head and did a great mix of dark blue roots and lighter blue at the tips. Everything about the place showed a great attention to detail and customer service - COVID safety procedures, masks so you don't have to get yours wet when they wash your hair, nice robes, chilled water, and these little twinkling lights on the ceiling above the wash station. Just great vibes all around. I adore the way my hair looks now, and I found it very affordable considering I had the whole head bleached and dyed. I will definitely be returning for my next color! read more

If you want your hair yellow when you asked for icy blond, definitely go for this awful salon with Rachel and pay more than 500$. I was told over the phone that if I go back for another toner she can fix the yellow color, but once i went back she said its an extra charge of $60, like why would i give them more business! read more

I got my hair cut and dyed here and I totally loved the experience!!! My haircut was from Bella + she was super great! Samantha did my partial highlights and honestly best highlights ever!!!! I would highly recommend this place read more

This place is amazing -- I had a great experience and will definitely come back. The quality of the services is great and the staff/personnel are a pleasure to interact with. read more

Went here for a cut, wash and style. Very reasonably priced ($60) and Samantha did such a good job. She took the time to go through all of my hair, layer by layer, and worked with me to fix my hair from previous damage. As someone who has trust issues when it comes to my hair, I'm so happy I decided to come here. The service itself is also remarkable. The salon is very nicely decorated and they give you a nice head, neck, and shoulder massage if you want it! Very impressed. read more

Had a great experience with the Keratin smoothing treatment at CL salon during summer 2019. Very professional and relaxing environment! I bought the Goldwell shampoo and conditioner and my treatment has held up for more than a couple months. My hair is naturally very curly and course and frizzy and this helped eliminate frizz and made my hair relax into nice beach waves. Highly recommend. read more

I had the best hair experience here with amanda! my hair is super dry and bleached and has been through so much abuse (i blame my need to change my hair color every other month and my unhealthy relationship with box dye). I came in for a hair treatment & hoped reverse at least some of the damage. I got the olaplex hair treatment and bought the no.3 product to use at home. Amanda was great and the service is also A+ here! the neck and shoulder massage was also a great bonus. Definitely coming back again here if I'm looking to color my hair again in the future :) read more

The reviews were so good that when I first went and they did a terrible cut, I actually went back to a different person. Same thing! These are kids, not professionals. No idea who is writing these positive reviews, but must be friends of the owners. read more

Very very nice salon. I had an enjoyable experience the place is modern and charmin. The owner and Samantha were very friendly and helpful. They are caring and know what they do. I can't wait for my next visit. read more

Went with my boyfriend yesterday and loved the service they provided.. Got pampered from head to shoulders with two massages. Amanda also cut and styled both our hair :D. Loved my beach wave curls and loved his sleek professional business look. Look forward to going again to get a hair up do for my friend's wedding. read more

This salon provided me with a truly luxurious experience. Friendly staff greeted me once I enter and offered to take my coat. Secondly, they offered me a hot beverage which is excellent in the cold winter days. While I was having my hair washed, they provided me with a blanket for coverage in case I was cold. The blanket was also very considerate because I was wearing a dress that day. My hair stylist, Amanda Li, was very professional and gave me a full consultation to ensure the haircut would be suitable to my style and needs. She listened carefully to what type of style I wanted and provided her feedback. Prior to the haircut, she also treated me with a 5 minute shoulder massage which was very relaxing. I was extremely satisfied with my overall experience, not to mention how happy I was with my fresh new cut and she even styled it to my liking! I would highly recommend CL Salon to all my family and friends. read more
