Stylist:

Nicole

Jan 24, 2012 - At this point, I've been to every curly salon downtown (seriously!) and I would still WAY rather trek out to Nicole at Sherway Gardens. She really gets curly hair, and also cares about what is going to look best and keep your hair healthy. My most recent cut on 01-22-12 looks fantastic and my hair feels great. Better yet, I left the salon with the big, soft, curly hair that I wanted, not hard and flattened to my scalp like most other stylists seem to manage. Leaving a salon feeling like my hair looks good is a pretty rare feeling for me, but now that I'm back to Nicole, I know I'll get that every time.

Stylist:

Nadine

May 11, 2011 - This was my second time getting my hair done at Aphrodite's Sanctuary but first time getting a cut (I had previously just had my roots touched up). Nadine did an amazing job on my cut, using the dry cutting technique. She actually listened when I said that I wanted to keep as much length as possible while still getting rid of my fried ends so my hair looks healthier. Nadine also touched up my roots, matching the rest of my platinum blonde hair perfectly! Overall, I had a fantastic experience and felt totally relaxed in Nadine's chair, knowing that my hair would look fantastic when I left. As an aside, Nadine's new stylist, Robyn, is a total sweetheart and was meticulous about diffusing my curls so they looked perfect!

Stylist:

Nicole

Jan 12, 2011 - Seriously, words cannot describe how happy I am with my cut/colour by Nicole! I realized that I hadn't been for a hair cut in a ridiculously long time and set up an appointment with Nicole for 1/11/11. At the last minute, I decided I wanted some highlights as well to break up my not-so-great at home dye job and Nicole was totally accommodating! She's always really sweet about my DIY colour, and never makes me feel bad about it which I really appreciate. The highlights look fantastic, but it's the cut that I'm really in love with. What's so great about Nicole is that I can vaguely describe what I want and she always knows exactly what to do. My flat curls are now big and bouncy. I have so much height and volume to my hair, but she also managed to keep my length (I'm always trying to grow my hair longer). My hair looks and feels amazing! Nicole is incredible at what she does and I will never trust my hair to anyone else. I've been to all the expensive downtown salons, but no one "gets" what I like the way Nicole does. I love my big, curly hair :)
