The Ginger Group Hair

Christine T is amazing. She was fun, positive and very talented. The balayage and cut she did was incredible. Thanks Christine :)

(Tl;dr at bottom) This is my first time experiencing The Ginger Group and I had the pleasure of having Andrea take care of me and my asian hair. The place itself when I entered looked very cozy, comfortable and modern. When Andrea came in to start my appointment, she was very thorough during her consultation, asked questions I never thought of (like how much time do you want to spend on your hair styling wise or care wise), and gave great suggestions that were aligned to what I wanted. Just from the consultation, her 20 years of experience as a hair stylist and understanding of asian hair really shone. After the consultation, she washed my hair with a shampoo, conditioner and Moroccan Oil. Her scalp massage felt so relaxing, if my appointment wasn’t in the morning I might have dozed off. She showed me all the products she used as well as their benefits, so she’s also a great salesperson (almost got me to buy it all). During the cutting of my hair, she started it off wet to get rid of the length and then blow dried my hair to cut it dry. She communicated very well during the cutting and we also had a great conversation about life haha. She was thorough and checked often to ensure the length and shape of my hair was all coming together. I also enjoyed watching her techniques and comparing it to the other hair stylists I have experienced. At the end, she protected my hair with some products and was able to curl my hair so well without an excessive amount of hairspray that about 2 hours after my appointment, my hair has yet to show signs of straightening itself and has retained the shape of the curls (for now). At the end, we ended it off right on the dot of an hour long appointment. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Andrea and I highly recommend her for asian hair. Of course I saw asian stylists in the salon who also showcase a great understanding of asian hair (including men’s), so I would check out their stylists on their website before calling to book an appointment.Tl;dr Andrea is a great stylist for asian hair, and I wanted to fall asleep during the hair wash cuz her scalp massage was very relaxing.

Christine is amazing! She did a great job with my hair and put in a ton of effort to get me the results I was looking for. Highly recommend!

Jen did my bridesmaid hair for my friends wedding and she did an outstanding job! It was 10 times better than anything I could have done myself. My hair was so beautiful and it lasted well into the night. I would absolutely go to Jen for my own wedding.

I only had a few days to get my hair coloured for a role in a theatre show, and Jenny not only took the time to do a consult for my hair through a mutual friend, but she also scheduled me in the very next day. She was meticulous and precise when explaining what we were going to do to get what my director wanted for my hair, and she walked me through every step.My hair looks better than I ever imagined it would with this colour, and Jenny set me up for success if I decide to lighten it again after my show closes. As well, the Salon is in a crazy old, crazy awesome building. The atmosphere alone was enough to make me come back, but the care and service I received has closed the deal. I’ve found my new favourite salon and stylist!

Jen is a wizard. Seriously. How she managed to get my thick, coarse, out of control hair looking this fabulous for a whole 24 hours is beyond me. I had already been turned down by one stylist at another salon who was uncomfortable working with my hair, that's what kind of hair we are talking about here people. But for Jen? No problem. Jen was so accommodating, taking the time to learn the style I wanted and making adjustments as needed to ensure it would stay all day. Not only that, Jen's energy while we were all getting ready was amazing. She showed up early and fit right in, immediately laughing with everyone and adding just even more positivity and brightness to an already wonderful day. This salon is fabulous and so are the people who work here. Thanks for making my day extra special Jen!

I've been coming here for a little over a year, and had Jenny as my stylist. I have really thick blonde hair, and an undercut, and because of the pandemic I had previously been going to chatters and having to explain everything I wanted to my hair, but Jenny gets it so quickly! They are an excellent person to go to if you aren't sure of what cut or style you want, and are really informative and helpful when it comes to coloring! Today I got highlights done by them and it's absolutely amazing the life that's been breathed into my hair. Also, Jenny has a really keen eye for changes that have happened to your hair, like thinning or damage, and is really upfront when telling you. Great styling and communication!

It was my first time here and I loved it!! The atmosphere is super cozy and inclusive, everyone was friendly, and to top it all off I got tea during my appointment :) It can be hard to find someone who's good at doing alt cuts, but Jenny was incredible and knew what they were doing the whole time, giving me styling tips and recommending products for me to use as well. Also super considerate about disability & autism! 12/10 would recommend, best salon experience I've had!
