I’ve been going to Vescada on Bloor West for years, even though I drive from afar because the service is that good. Plus, they carry Aveda products. Highly recommended!

I have been a client of Vescada Salon for 15 years now and while a couple of times I may have not had the cut I wanted i have always been very happy with my cuts and with the service. If I ever was unhappy it would be fixed right away. They have also been cutting our daughter's hair for 15 years as well since she was knee high to a grasshopper and they have given us a considerable discount and very reasonable rate for a young person's cut. Even for an adult the rate is very reasonable for the quality of the cut. No loose ends, the cut and line you are looking for. And very pleasant

WRONG idea! I had Amy and explained to her my problem that my hair was too dark and had red tinge that I absolutely disliked and a bit of green on the ends of my hair from the pool. 4 hours later (yes you read that right) after having

I have been a regular in Vescada Salon for nearly a decade, but stopped going there for over a year now... I had a feeling that they got somewhat relaxed with their service and the way they treat their customers. Last time I was there I got a wash/haircut/blow dry - I could hardly notice if anything had been done to my hair! The next morning the haircut was a disaster, and I felt like I threw my money away. In addition, there is some sort of inconsistency with the pricing: the same service fluctuates b/w $75 and $85
