I love Shampoo. I see Jamie, and she consistently does a fantastic job with my colour and cut. I find she really understands the texture of her clients' hair, and her cuts tend to grow out really well. Even a month after an appointment, I'll often get compliments like, "did you just get a cut?" from people I see regularly.
A few of my friends see other stylists there, like Anna, and have only had positive feedback. Highly, highly recommend.

I also see jamie and for someone with curly hair it's hard to find a stylist who knows how to cut it properly. I usually end up looking like a sheep. However, I've always been happy with what Jamie has done. I do recommend this place for sure.
I got my hair cut here about 3 weeks ago with Anna, and have to say that it is in the top 5 of my worst haircuts ever. My hair at the front is different lengths, and my hair is straight so when I don't style it, it's really obvious. I have some strands that are way longer than others and the layers don't give my hair any shape. It only took her a couple of minutes to cut, and it shows.
Having said that, this is the only salon that I have found in Toronto that has actually managed to do my blonde right - it's not brassy, too dark etc. So thank god for that!!
Butchered hair cut! / November 19, 2009 at 3:13 PM
This place was horrible!! I have never in my life met such rude staff. The place was dirty and my haircut was a disaster. I ended up having to spend another $70 on another haircut somewhere else to fix the cut i got there. They should call this salon the butcher shop because thats exactly what they did to my hair!!!!
I had one of the worst haircuts ever at this place. I went in on advice from a friend and asked for a pretty straight forward cut. The girl doing my hair seemed untrained and the resutls were awful. I would never go back here. When I went for my next cut at a different salon the hairdresser could not believe how poor of a job I had received before. You have been warned!
May be more helpful if you posted the name of the stylist who 'butchered' your hair -- based on these comments, Daniel and Jamie seem to be pretty good, while Anna's hit-and-miss. More useful to know than branding this place as crap outright!
Just call Anna the goddess of color. An honest stylest that will tell you how your hair will turn out with a different style. My hair is super thick and heavy so it won't do the flip thing that I thought I'd like. She redirceted me to a much better style for me. Thanks Anna your amazing.

nice people, however, mediocre work and poor value compared to other hair stylists in the city

I see Anna, and she does a great job with my curly hair. I've also taken my mum to see her, and she's done a great job with straight hair as well.
Highly HIGHLY recommend.

I love this salon. I've got wavy hair and Daniel gave me a cut that not only embraces the waves but allows me to do quick style. And he's super nice.

Maybe your hair is a piece meat.
I've been going here for over three years, and have always been satisfied with my hair. Paul always gets it right!
