Hair Republic Beauty Lounge

Hair cut by: Baraa AbourassShort layers- shoulder lengthFirst thing i noticed: she dint pull the hair like many other hair stylists do. I dint even feel the heat on my scalp when she was styling it.She is damn silent- but her work speaks a lot!With so much patience and concentration she transformed my hair, just with a nice cut!Please try a cut with her- and u will not get disappointed at all!!

Got a cut and colour last week!Really, really love the colour - the stylist did an amazing good job :) 5/5For the cut, I’m slightly sad as my hair is much shorter than I anticipated.I just wanted to clean up the ends, maybe take off like 1-2cm in length but I’m realizing now my hair is quite shorter than requested.For reference, the first pic was taken 1 month ago (I imagine my hair was even longer prior to the cut) and the second pic is the length of my hair today.The haircut part of the service was also probably under 7 minutes so it was odd being charged for the a full cut. (Though Im not sure how the services/prices are broken down)3.5/5 stars for my overall experienceI know hair grows back but a girl just wanted long lush hair for the summmeerrrr :’( :’( :’(

This is the worst salon I have ever been.The price does not match the quality of service.In fact, the high price misled you to think it is a premium, high-end salon, but trust me, this place is no different than First Choice.The lady who gave me haircut was quite slacky. She burned my ears like 10+ times when styling/blowdrying and never apologized. She also ignores me the whole time but kept chatting with her colleague beside her. I paid $100 for my haircut but the cut was done in 15 minutes(another 35 minutes blowdry/overheated my hair).Unfortunately, I will not be back.

The worst haircut I’ve ever had….I’m naturally a 3B curl, and had some damaged ends I needed to trim. Diana seemed to be very knowledgeable and I trusted her recommendation….regrettable. She asked me if I wanted a blunt or blunt round cut, I didn’t want either, I had asked her to trim the dead ends and I wanted to grow my layers out before doing any additional cutting. She gave me a very uneven blunt cut and took at least 3 inches off the bottom layer, my hair hasn’t been this short in a decade. She didn’t even touch the upper layers and must have done only 3 cuts total with the scissors- my upper layers are longer than the bottom layers. Extremely disappointing in this horrible haircut, and will never be coming back. I recommend avoiding this place altogether, especially if you have curls.

**Update: I really hesitated to update my review but unfortunately I still can’t say I’m satisfied. Again, left the salon happy just to see that one side is clearly longer than the other. The second hairdresser was really nice as well and definitely knew what she was doing. I just wish she would’ve noticed the issue. It’s really noticeable and a big no go with the length I have. I double checked it to make sure it’s not just the way it falls. Too bad. I don’t think I would recommend this place to my friends - won’t come back. But appreciate them getting back to me for fix the first issues.I got a haircut today but unfortunately I’m not satisfied. I came with long hair till my lower back and wanted to get a long bob. So you can imagine it’s a big change. Naturally I was a bit nervous and excited at the same time. The stylist seemed like he knew what I wanted right away. However I would've appreciated a bit more communication. It’s not a big deal but made me realize later I should’ve questioned it more. I wanted it shorter, he hesitated. I agreed but made sure we can still change it after just in case. Once he was done he realized my lack of excitement and made it a tiny bit shorter but rushed through it. Literally in seconds with the machine (I wasn’t even wearing a cover at this point anymore - still have hair all over my clothes) Not precisely enough. I have straight hair so you’ll always be able to tell if the cut is not done well. I left the salon quite happy, because the haircut does look nice at first but when I got home I saw the mistakes. 85$ is a lot of money. I didn’t expect mistakes like this. Definitely need to fix it. 2 stars because he was being really nice & would’ve done a good job probably if we went with the length I wanted from the beginning.

I almost cried, in a good way!Elena is magical. After not having my hair highlighted in a year, and a bad Demi-Permanent colour, she worked her magic. She was so fun to be around while she worked on my hair, explaining what she was doing every step of the way.After going through a large transition, and she made me feel like myself again, which is priceless.We did baby-lights, shadow root and a cut.Go to her. You will not regret it!

I had a great experience. The ambiance and customer service is excellent. I did my haircut from Elena. She did a great job. I would highly recommend this place. Make sure to carry cash since they accept tips in cash only. Also it is difficult to find parking since it’s on a very busy street.

Love Hair Republic (we go to the one on Bank). Although I don't always get the same stylist (my fault for not booking far enough ahead), I always get a good cut and/or colour. This week I went and had Nour, who worked very efficiently and well. I got a great cut, and quickly. My daughter went to him the week before and got a great cut with a very good colour. Highly recommend!

Since 2020, I have seen about a half dozen different stylists her [and now I have Baraa as my go-to]. From a dramatic balayage to several big hair cuts to regular bang trims, I have never had a bad experience.And Baraa has transformed my hair into something I just dealt with to one of my favourite physical attributes about myself. She is meticulous, caring and understands my hair better than I do. I will always recommend a Hair Republic to my friends looking for stylists.

They have 20% discount on tuesdays and thursdays for students. So, I used this opportunity and booked a spot woth NOUR.He did my haircut & haircolour in 1 hour and i am extremely happy with the resaults.
