Max is the best!! Not only do i receive a consistently wonderful cut each visit, but also get lots of compliments from hair professionals about the excellence of the cut. Max has a way with layering and styling that keep me looking great. Thanks Max!!

"Five stars for Max! The Short North shop is always a great experience, but Max’s attention to detail is what keeps me coming back. Always a consistent, high-quality cut/color, great conversation and welcome suggestions for my hair type.

I booked this place for Hair and Makeup services for my wedding day. I was SO IMPRESSED with how the day ended up. It was so nice to sit with my girlies at the bar and hang out while we waited for our turns. I had 9 people (including me) get hair and airbrushed make up done in less than 4 hours! They also have me the option to pre-order food for everyone so that we could stay well fed. Definitely would recommend for a salon bridal experience! P.S. Dion and Chey are absolutely wonderful and made me feel so beautiful on my big day!
