Experience and professionalism together with a nice smile. This is how I would describe my experience with Alta Moda Hair. They get a 5 stars because they LISTEN to you and their creativity stays within your vision of yourself. Easy to reach, by acquabus ti Granville or by car, as it is close to downtown.

This is by far the most relaxed ,classy friendly ,elegant non pretentious salon I have been to .I have a cut every 3 weeks or so by Lisa who is not only professional detail oriented but gorgeous and fun!People are coming in and out of the salon everybody interacts jovially with each other and I often see people just hanging out at the common table visiting before and after not in a rush to leave . My haircut is always awesome I am a guy but all the babes I see in there and coming out of there look pretty fine too!

Franco not only listens but took my white girl afro and did as I asked by not taking too much off (to have me in tears as is usually the case....) but looking polished and professional. If you want head turning hair come see Franco Peta! Thanks for doing what you do Franco! : ) Thanks Karen Hale for the referral! xo
