This little hair studio is located in a strip mall on Sackville Drive, and can be difficult to locate if you aren't paying attention. While I always make an appointment with my usual hair dresser, the 3's Company staff are great at fitting in drop-ins, and there are usually enough people working at a time to keep on schedule. What I've learned to love about getting my hair done here is how comfortable the environment is. The clientele is mainly women in their mid-teens or twenties and moms (my mom included). You wont find the most cutting edge styles or colors leaving through their doors but I've always walked away satisfied. That satisfaction is thanks in part to the compliments that everyone working gives me on every new do, but if it's a scheme to keep my business it's working.

Several of the ladies there have cut my hair and they all did a great job. I like the fact that I can go in and not know what I want-which is every time-and when I leave I have a terrific cut that everyone seems to love. I get my hair colored now and they choose everything, they even call me to remind me that it is time for another one. Service is fantastic, all the ladies chat with you, clients chat to clients, they remember your children, your hobbies, your tastes. Give it a try, if nothing else you will come out with a haircut that everyone will love.....even your husband will compliment you.....;0)

Last month I realized I needed a haircut more then I have ever needed a haircut in my entire life…read more My hair had not been trimmed in several months, I had 6-month old half-grown out colour that had faded to the max, and I was *thisclose* to taking the razor to the whole thing ala. Britney. I am particular about my hair and about it looking good so I don't like to trust it to just anyone. Seeing as my hairstylist I have had since BIRTH is in Cole Harbour, I now live in the North end of Halifax with no car, and she is extremely hard to get an appointment with anyway, I decided it was high time to find a place in my own hood. I had noticed Flaunt salon open up a few months before (it opened mid-October 2010) because I walk by the old house it's located in every day after work (you can't miss that big, round window in the front!). It looked like a nice, fun place, plus, you can't beat a 5 minute walk from my apartment. So, I thought I would give it a try. Well, seriously I think I had the best haircut of my LIFE that day. Now, I really really needed a haircut so to be honest, ANY change to my style would probably have made me completely over-the-moon, but it was more than that. I was randomly paired up with Laurel and she was lovely - very friendly with a sunny personality - so I felt in good hands right from the beginning. I brought a picture to give her an idea of the kind of look I wanted and she made it look exactly like that! She gave me a great asymmetrical bob style with tons of layers, but kept it long enough that I could still pull at least the front back - you know, she actually LISTENED to me (which doesn't always happen at salons, am I right, other high-maintainence hair people?). The salon itself is small (I think only 5 chairs) and so it's quiet but also encourages conversation amongst patrons. There is an air of exclusivity to it - like you are at a place that requires you to make an appointment 6 months in advance and where you could easily shell out $200 for a cut. Now, don't get me wrong, this place is a tad pricey - I was actually surprised when she told me the total at the end of my appointment and it came to $57 before tip (so almost $70 total - eeps). However, to me it was worth it because she did a great job with my cut. Also, I don't necessarily mind paying a bit more money for the convenience and experienced stylists. Unfortunately I can't speak for how much a colour or other treatments would cost but I imagine they are not cheap either. One thing that I also found a tad odd was that they don't take credit cards (only debit, cash or cheque) so those of you on a budget and who like your plastic, be forewarned. Also keep in mind that they have more limited hours than other salons (the latest they are open is 8pm and that's only one or two nights a week I think...the other nights I believe it is 6pm) and they are limiting their hours even more over the summer, so book at least a week ahead. One thing is for sure about this place - you will definitely walk out of here with something to Flaunt!

After moving away from my regular hairstylist of 4 years, I bounced from stylist to stylist for…read moreanother 2 years. I had a longish pixie that I was looking to grow out at the time. Well, by the time I arrived at the Hair Factory, my hair was down to my chin with no texture, substance, or shape whatsoever. I was beyond frustrated, telling stylist after stylist what I wanted and no matter what I paid, always coming out with a flat hair shape that would just take longer to somewhat style with a flat iron. I booked an appointment with Karen Melay after receiving a referral from a coworker of mine. I wanted someone who was very familiar with short hair and could, at this point, work wonders on my hair. It took me 5 minutes to describe my frustrations and what I wanted, and I kid you not, it took her 2 minutes for me to instantly feel better about my hair. The appointment obviously took a little longer than 2 minutes, but she knew exactly what I wanted and I came out with an incredible hairstyle I haven't seen in 2 years! The atmosphere of the salon is definitely warm and inviting; the stylists have a really great cohesion between them, and you can definitely tell. Not only will I be back, but I'll be spreading the word to anyone looking to find a stylist willing to not only listen to what YOU want, but actually understand your hair as well. Added bonus: It's on the waterfront, with a couple of restaurants nearby, so you can walk down the boardwalk showing of that sexy new 'do. Haha
