“I had a haircut with Blixa this morning, and I couldn't be happier. I get nervous about cutting my hair as I like to preserve my length, but she listened to what I was looking for and did EXACTLY that. She's kind, lovely, quiet, and pleasant to be around. Highly recommend booking with her!“

“This establishment is truly one of the best spas and salons in the city, if not on the entire island. From the warm greeting at the door to the impeccable results from every stylist, it's clear that excellence is a priority.

Kiyomi is dedicated to fostering her team's passions and continuous learning, which shines through in their exceptional work.

LENA's spa treatments are particularly noteworthy. She teaches me so much about my skin and I always leave with my skin glowing and my brows perfectly shaped. There's simply no need to go anywhere else!“

“My first time at a salon in Nanaimo and Zoelle made sure to give me the best service ever. She did my hair cut, hair treatment and the head massage was absolutely relaxing. I have not felt so relaxed and refreshing in a long time. Zoelle hats off to you and thank you for such amazing service and efforts. I would make sure to return as your client.“

“From start to finish, Moreah displayed fabulous knowledge as a stylist. She made great recommendations and also listened to what I wanted for my hair while providing all I could've ever wanted to know about my hair/how it will react to color treatment. The home salon place is beautiful and comforting too. Thanks to Moreah, I now know how to keep my color treated hair happy and healthy! Would recommend Moreah to anybody.Service: Ombre hair color“

“After having a haircut from hell at a different salon, Marie reached out to me and offered to fix my hair FOR FREE! She was so amazing and so cautious not to cut more than needed to be cut and was very understanding about how anxious I was about a 3rd cut in 10 days. She was very knowledgeable about the various curl patterns in my hair and talked to me the whole time she was cutting. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Dylan puts the dream in day dream salon! Thoughtful and highly skilled at her craft Dylan takes great care to hear what you're excited about and what style you're dreaming of! She's thoughtful about the language she uses around gender and styles. Her salon is bright at cheery and I never feel rushed or like just another appointment. I'm known to impulsively cut my own bangs and dye my own hair and I never feel judged in her chair! I always love my cuts AND my time spent in her chair! I get so many compliments on the style and I love that I don't have to work hard in the morning to feel cute! Scheduling and pricing is the easiest I've ever experienced! So grateful to have Dylan as my stylist!“

“Very friendly staff, I had the young lady with longer black hair cut my hair and was very accurate to photo even while working mostly by vocal description and a few glances at it. Definitely happy with the cut and plan on coming back when i need to get next cut.“

“great perm still awesome after 2 months. Great services no piggybacking of clients,Neat clean and so calming.Love it“

“I’ve been going to see Shannan at Orriginal for my hair for nearly 4 years. Her attention to detail, and skills are impeccable. I get compliments on my hair routinely, even when it’s been weeks since my last visit. The studio is a short walk for me, but I’d travel much further if I had to. The quiet, relaxed atmosphere there is just what I need for my self care. Thank you so much!“

“Laura is amazing! I had the best experience and I am feeling like myself again! Haven’t had a haircut in years! Thank you ☺️❤️“

“Tom is a fabulous barber! My son and I always go to see Tom when a cut/style is required? I was thankful for a haircut to keep me cooler in this hot weather. I'm thankful for Tom's expertise and precision in his craft. I hope Tom never retires as he truly is, an artist.“

“First time customer. The salon is super clean, with a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. Gracie, thank you for the fantastic cut! I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“After a few months my hair was in DIRE need of a refresh and I came to see Leah at Aura. The salon had such a beautiful relaxed spa vibe and Leah’s service and energy was amazing. So happy with my hair, I can’t wait for my next appointment :) (photos attached are before and after)
