I went for a quick trim and it was a full service from head and shoulders massage and beautiful blow dry! My boys like the fact that they will be getting some sweets and hot chocolates after their haircuts. No one complains about going to get their haircuts anymore. The only downside is the parking around Esplanade and Lonsdale can be so hard to find.

I wanted to be able to not come back for 6 months if I don't feel like it and given how bold and Chunky the blonde around my face is, I will likely have to get it fixed and blended better in a month or so. I like a super lived in balayage and it looks like I got blonde highlights. The last picture is my inspo, and the other two is what I got. This unfortunately isn't the first time I've had an issue with supernova stylists not doing what I asked for. They did resolve it last time but I don't have time to keep coming back when I get my hair done to get it fixed, nor is it good for my hair. My hair also feels like it wasn't washed good enough as it feels like there's still some of the gritty toner or dye in it, not sure which one.

I rarely write negative reviews, but my experience with Salon Supernova was deeply disappointing…read moreand incredibly stressful. I had booked a hair color appointment weeks in advance for an important family event, my Goddaughter's wedding this weekend in Kelowna. I traveled from Chicago to Vancouver specifically in part for this appointment and paid a 50 percent deposit for a service costing over $500. Yesterday, I received a confirmation reminder emphasizing that cancellations within 24 hours or no shows would result in a non refundable deposit. However, today, only four hours before my appointment, the salon called to cancel on me. I was informed they could not accommodate me with another stylist either. I calmly explained my situation and that I only had today available before leaving for the wedding. The response was essentially that nothing could be done. When I asked to speak with the manager, the staff member rudely refused, said she would "inform the manager," then abruptly ended the call. I understand emergencies and scheduling issues can happen. What was most upsetting was the complete lack of accountability, empathy, professionalism, or effort to help resolve the situation, especially from a salon operating at this price point. A business that strictly enforces cancellation policies on clients should hold itself to the same standard of responsibility and customer care.

I had an appointment for a cut and balayage yesterday with Yuri. I'm very pleased with the results!…read moreShe took the reference photos I liked and made it work for my complexion and face structure. The salon itself it very cool - super aesthetic, good vibes, nice staff. They also have a great instagram page, which is how I found them. I would compare them to the internet hair gurus like Ahn Co Tran (of Ramirez Salon) and Sal Salcedo (of Nova Arts Salon). Very vibey. I will say, be prepared for a pretty steep bill. I expected it to be high because obviously they have a great internet presence and do great work, but I was still surprised by the final cost. Of course, I tipped on top of that because Yuri really did a great job. So the final bill was... staggering. However, I truly believe hair is one of the things you shouldn't cheap out on, especially if you're getting it coloured as well, like I did. A good balayage takes time and skill, and if you find a salon with prices that seem to good to be true, you probably won't be happy with the results (there are exceptions of course). I do wish they had some sort of promo or incentive for new customers. I see a lot of other salons offering either some % off or a free cut with a hair colour appointment for new customers. It would have been nice to see some summer promotion or something. Overall, if you can afford it, this is a great salon with a lot of talented hair dressers and colour specialists. You won't leave disappointed.

My hairdresser is at La Meche in LA but I was in Vancouver and looking for a last-minute blow out…read moreon a Friday. All I could find was this salon, so I booked Ana K. Prieto. Ana was unfriendly, uncommunicative and did not make eye contact. She looked me up and down, head to toe judgementally. I ventured toward small chat to break the ice but she seemed beyond over it. When an aspiring Vancouver actress whom Ana recognized walked in to the salon, it was clear that Ana was not an introvert as she immediately changed her demeanour to chatty with the actress... all the while, ignoring me: the client in her chair. Ana was shallow; snobby and rude but let's talk about her her actual service. Ana gave me the worst blow dry of my entire life. I showed her pictures of my basic, voluminous blowdries of the past. She half rolled her eyes and looked away, annoyed that a pedestrian like me would dare suggest how she wants her hair done. Bizarre approach to customer service but, ok, maybe she'll surprise me and crush it?? When I asked her where she learned to do hair she mentioned a local makeup school telling me that make up is her actual passion. Uhh, again, you're supposedly doing my hair but admitting you're not great at it? Just to try and break the ice and appeal to HER interests for conversation, I said, "do you do makeup on the side?" and she snapped back, "I can't do your makeup. I do editorial." Lollll. Girl, I was not asking you to do my makeup. My hair is jaw-length and has natural wave and volume to it. Essentially, my hair takes very easily to a blowout! Oddly, Ana used zero tension on the brush, and haphazardly waved the blow dryer at the ends making the hair more frizzy than when I came in. I showed her a picture again of a decent blowout and she said nothing. $55 later, I left the salon with limp, fuzzy hair. The roots were completely damp. Yes, damp. My friends stared at me strangely when I told them I had just come out from getting my hair did. :( I'm embarrassed that I left a big tip. I did so because I didn't want to reciprocate her snobbiness with cheap character.

I had a consulation and she assured me that once I got home and played around with it and used wig tape, all would be good. But it doesnt sit on my crown (top of my head) and when I pull it down so it does, the sides cover my ears!! Ridiculous! Instead of telling me the wig was too big (keeping in mind, shes placing it on my head, not me), they should have told me they would order the appropriate size. I have a very small head. No refunds, No exchanges, although you wont find that policy on their website or the receipt. Stylist forgot to mention it as did the receptionist taking my payment. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM. They should be embarrassed and ashamed of themselves.

Ok...so here's the deal with this place…read more After several stylists at other salons couldn't get it right and cut way too much each time, we decided to try our luck with Ali. Finally, we found a stylist that not only knows hair at an expert level, but actually listens to what you want, and what you're looking for. No matter how intricate, how detailed, how creative and how unique you want your hair...Ali will know as he's an expert at what he does, and he does it humbly and with care as he demonstrated with us. After all the butcher jobs prior by other stylists, I was expecting my husband to come home with another failed haircut and was pleasantly surprised. Loved his cut, because it was exactly what we asked for. The second time around was the same. Beautiful job. Expertise. Consistency. Optimal customer care. That's LoLo Hair by Ali.
