When we were in Edmonton for a family wedding, I had a hair appointment at this Salon.

Every Beauty Salon should read this and pay attention. The cost for a wash and blow dry was only $31.50 BUT with that you get:
1. they ask if you would like a head massage – take it! It is fabulous.
2. A young lady comes over and (after asking if you want this) a hand masssage. All the while, your hairdresser is working on your hair.
3. When finished, your hairdresser asks if you would like a neck/shoulder massage – again , take it!
These little extras do two things.
1. A happier, very relaxed customer
2. Larger gratuity
Oh, I forgot, they also offer coffee, water, juice.
If I lived i n Edmonton, they would have a regular customer in me. I found them to be amazing artists, charming shop and the neatest French accents around.
