Le Salon Mods

Over 12 years ago I was given a gift from my then boss for a full service. Up until that day getting my haircut was like getting my teeth pulled Christophe did the best job I ever had. Since then mods is the only place I go to. Christophe, hector and Romero are my usuals but I would trust anyone of the stylists fully. My niece gets her hair Colored by a young girl Val, AWESOME. Corey & Troy sweethearts! I have never left this place disappointed. Going there feels like I’m going to visit loved family members!

Romero is a wonderful person and he treats my dear wife Johanne with great compassion and care. He is a real professional.

I don’t usually write negative reviews, but I had a shocking experience at Salon Mods on Greene. DON’T GET YOUR HAIR DYED WITH OWNER, STEPHANE! After ruining my blonde streaks and attempting to fix my hair 2x this week, I left with purple streaks today. I spent over $600 and verbally abused. Here’s the story...I’ve been going to Mods for quite some time now. Me and my sister booked an apt the first day back from Covid. I showed Stephane an inspo photo of baby blonde/platinum streaks and he said he could do it. To be honest, I’ve asked him to lighten my blonde hair numerous time. He always nods and just does his own thing and it always ends up brassy... so this time I had an inspo photo to be very clear. And again, I ended up with brassy streaks and patches at the roots that were all off. I noticed during my cut and showed Stephane who put a second round of toner to fix the issue. Well it didn’t get fixed. My appointment was no joke 6 hrs and he never apologized. Kept blaming Covid and how I hadn’t dyed my hair in a while. He even asked me if I went swimming in a pool?! His attitude is beyond entitled and arrogant. Don’t let his silent attitude fool you...he’s a ticking time bomb. I went home and noticed the patches were still there. I showed it to a few friends who all suggested I go back. I spent over $600 and the salon doesn’t even give you a detailed printout so you don’t know what you are getting charged for. Sketchy! I called back a few days later and scheduled another appointment. Stephane decided to add more bleach to fix the blending issue and then told me he couldn’t achieve the blonde I requested because my hair “was too hard to bleach” because it’s been so long due to Covid. He kept making excuses but never took responsibility or acted apologetic. After the bleach, they added a “gloss” which was actually a purple hair mask. I found it odd to add a mask without a toner first, but the assistant assured me it would be nice and lighten the colour. The bleach absorbed the purple. I noticed a purple shade when my hair was wet prior to my blow dry (which they charged me without warning) and the stylist (not my regular stylist) said it wouldn’t stay. I left the salon and noticed at home that I HAD LAVENDER STREAKS everywhere! I walked back an hour later to show them and the receptionist (Corey, Stephane’s BF) wanted to give me refund but didn’t want me talking to Stephane. He was acting annoyed as if I’m complaining about nothing. He said he couldn’t see the purple so I offered to show him outside in the sunlight and talk there. I wanted to talk to Stephane to show him this mess and help me find a solution. They messed up my hair so bad that I can’t just take the money and get it fixed elsewhere. It’s so damaged after 2 bleaches/toners that I didn’t want to risk making it worse. Stephane walked up to my and started yelling nonsense like a lunatic. I was shocked and said “why are you talking to me like that after ruining my hair?” He was furious and almost shoved me and told me to leave the salon or he would call the police. The other owner (heavy bald aggressive man) cornered me and started yelling at me too saying things like “Stephane is the best and they don’t need clients like me” I didn’t leave right away because I was waiting for Corey to write the cheque for my refund. I called out to my stylist who felt bad for the situation and began to apologize. The other owner started yelling at my stylist for apologizing to me saying they did “nothing wrong”. I wish I had filmed this situation. I guarantee they wouldn’t have treated a man that way. I never experienced something like this before. After being vocal about this situation on various Westmount FB groups, I learned that I’m not the only client who he messed up and treated with disrespect. The negative feedback is shocking. Here’s a photo my my lavender streaks and my sister’s balayage that was supposed to be mocha coloured. Scroll down Google reviews and read Kayla’s story. Not far off from mine. It won’t be the last...don’t risk it!!!

An excellent place, great vibe! I strongly recommend Romero as a hairstylist. Also, the owners are doing a great job at running this place…

Very happy with my haircut and styling! I had Romero and he was extremely kind and gave me exactly what I asked for.Whenever I ask for my hair to be styled and curled/waved (from previous salon experiences ), the hairstylists usually rush the process and use an incredible amount of hairspray because I have thicker hair. I am very content with how my hair turned out as well as the service at Mods. I was really skeptical to get my hair done here due to past experiences but everyone at this salon was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I am happy Romero did not use a ridiculous amount of hairspray on me and really took the time to style my hair. I am super excited for my next visit :)

This has got to be the best hair salon in Montreal! Dorian is an artist! He really did a fabulous job on my highlights. I told him the color I wanted and that's exactly what he gave me. He is simply AMAZING! I highly recommend this place to anyone that is serious about their hair color and want only the best hands handling it!

Professional, friendly. Place looks good and is easy to spot in westmount. Got a hair cut recently was really happy with the outcome.

Today I had one of the best hair cutting experiences with Valeria. Valeria is extremely experienced, skilled, accurate and of course kind. At first, I had chosen a different hairstyle, but she took the time to explain to me that this style does not suit me due to my gender and hairstyle, and suggested another style.. I can't say how satisfied and happy I am. The final result of the work was wonderful.. Thank you so much Valeria

I couldn’t get my usual stylist and was paired with someone new, Aimée. She was absolutely fantastic! So happy to have found another highly talented stylist. I will definitely return to see her when I’m in town again!
