I have had my hair done at Blaze several times now and have never been disappointed. The salon owner, Rich, is super helpful when Im indecisive, even when Im still flipping through Pinterest pictures in the chair! Hes adaptable to cut/dye my hair to the style I specify and hes realistic if the colour I want is not achievable in one sitting. My first sitting involved bleaching my hair and then dying it silver/blue. When that faded, I went for the amethyst purple in my second visit. Products used were not damaging at all- Ive gotten a lot of complements and inquiries about where I get my hair done, but because I live in Toronto, Ive let a lot of people down. So if youre reading this in Vancouver, count your blessings for this hidden gem!
