Great Expectations Studio

Absolutely cannot recommend this salon enough, every time I go I get consistent, quality service. Nicole is an excellent colourist and stylist who always takes her time giving you a fantastic hair style. Johnny and Nicole's standards for cleanliness and adherence to covid protocols has been very much appreciated.

I can't speak highly enough of this salon, I have been a client of Nicole's for more years than I care to remember, her colouring and cuts are top notch and I have always received compliments on my hair. Nicole & Johnny run this very friendly small salon which is super clean, they go above and beyond to ensure their clients feel comfortable and safe and provide 5 star service. I have no hesitation in recommending Great Expectations.

Nicole is an excellent, professional hair stylist who has been looking after my hair for the past several years. She has done a fantastic job in recommending colour choices which I often receive numerous compliments about. She is friendly and outgoing which makes for a positive experience while in the salon. She has been very accommodating with regards to booking so I am always able to get an appointment when needed. If you are looking for a new stylist, Nicole is highly recommended!

I've been coming to this salon for over 10 years, and have never been unhappy with my haircut. Johnny listens and tailors a haircut to suit each individual person, and does a phenomenal job with my thick curly hair. I've had both long, layered cuts by him and also short architectural haircuts and have been equally happy with both.Excellent salon, highly recommend.

Johnny and Nicole are both so friendly, accommodating, and professional. I am usually always a bit nervous to have someone new colour/cut my hair because I do not like too much change, but I have had 3 appointments with Johnny, and I am always beyond happy with my end results when leaving. Johnny was able to colour correct, cut, and treat my hair that was previously quite damaged. I have now had more compliments on my hair colour in the past 5 months than I have ever had before! I have a lot of confidence and trust in Johnny and Nicole with their recommendations for my hair, and I always look forward to my appointments. The salon is always very clean and organized, and Bella is the cutest greeter!I highly recommend making an appointment here, you will not regret it!!

I have been going to Johnny and Nicole for all of my hair care needs for many years now. My experience with them has always exceeded my expectations. Nicole listens to my vision and always does an excellent job in executing the plan. They always use the best products and I love that they use and support Canadian-made companies. I would highly recommend visiting them at Great Expectations.. you won’t be disappointed!

Nicole has been my go-to person for excellent hair cuts and colours for years. Nicole listens to all of my questions, concerns and ideas and we work together to come up with a plan. I feel that she takes the time to consider the overall look of what I am asking for, the long term impact on my hair as well as my lifestyle.Over the last couple of years I have worked to stop colouring my dark brown hair to allow for more of my natural (grey) colour to come in. Nicole has helped me with this transition and has made something I was very unsure about a lot easier. I am complimented not just on my hair cut or that I have grown out my dark hair, but how well the colour suits me. That is thanks to Nicole. She took the time to give me highlights that work with my eyes and skin tone.I have no problem recommending her to friends and family. She is kind, talented and knows her stuff. A true professional.

Nicole has been cutting and colouring my hair for years and I have never been disappointed. Her knowledge of colour products and her ability to understand my hair characteristics allows me to have total faith in her expertise. She is personable and makes you feel like you are visiting a friend while having your hair professionally treated. Recently she helped me transition to my natural grey colour. The salon has recently been redesigned and decorated making it fresh and a comfortable space to be in.

I have had the pleasure of having Nicole as my stylist for over 20 years. Always a fantastic job colouring, cutting and straightening my hair!  Johnny and Nicole are truly amazing professionals.HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
