John Steinberg and AssociatesOne of Toronto's (surprisingly few) cult of the stylist salons, John Steinberg and Associates sits in the heart of King West. (That's John above, opening the blinds on a Saturday morning).

Went here for a haircut and Debbie was my hairdresser.. She was great, really pleasant and made up a hair colour from looking to match my hair colour just with one look. Will be back to see her regular. A great cut. I love it.

So, I took about a month and a half to post this as I wanted to wait and see what my hair looked after it grew out to be fair to the hair dresser.

First, I just want to say, I have gone to a few salons, and I am not a picky person nor do I expect something amazing. However since my hair dresser was busy that week and I needed a good haircut for my trip, I decided to book with this salon after reading all the good reviews.

When I got there, she was 20 minutes late.
The hair dresser was LEESA, she was rude, obnoxious, un-friendly.

I have fairly long, curly hair, but it’s easily straightened. All I needed was a simple trimming of my ends, layers, thinning, and style.

She refused to wash my hair even though I had product in it. Saying everyone gets only 1 hour and she wanted to spend that hour cutting.

Anyways, after an hour, my hair felt fine, but it was VERY boring, traditional, nothing new, and for the price you pay for her, she is definitely not half as good as some random hair dresser for $30. I think I just got unlucky with her because I heard the other girls are pretty good. As my hair grew out this past while it’s been in worse shape then ever, she first cut it un-even, one side is a lot longer then the other, she did the thinning wrong which made me get little hairs sticking up everywhere and she cut in such a way that it parts weird and I can’t make it go back to the way it was. I just got it re-done by my hair dresser and she even noticed how awkward it looked.

Regardless of what I heard about this salon, my experience was the worst of any other salon I have been too, and I felt awkward the whole time there. I can not say I do not recommend this salon, but I fore sure DO NOT recommend LEESA, and if you want great layers, cheaper hair cut and a nice cut, just call up Johnny Cuppelo Salon and ask for Margaret.
