Best Hair Salons In Courtenay

“Hands down the best barber in town. Kitty is so talented and funny. Do yourself a favour and get a haircut from here. You won’t be disappointed at all!“

“Emily was amazing! Super easy to work with, and did a great job on my cut. I'd highly recommend her!“

“The search is over! My go to salon now! I have Asian hair and it is difficult to find a hair stylist on the island that understands what I need. Carley was superb! She understands what I wanted, very detailed, she is highly skilled and experienced. I got exactly what I wanted at the end. I’ll always get my haircut here from now on.

Picture of my hair looks a bit frizzy because I washed it and didn’t put product. But it looks like Korean style hair ???.“

“I absolutely love hairpins, all the staff are incredibly kind, great product selection and Kris is my all time fave hairdresser! Go see him for all your alt cuts. I love my Chelsea cut!! Thank you for being such an inclusive safe welcoming space.“

“I have been to Eurospa a few times now and had an amazing experience each time. My last visit I had a facial, and a half hour back massage. Chantel is absolutely wonderful. Chantel has a way of making you feel so special, and completely relaxed. And so knowledgeable about how to take care of yourself after you leave. Every time I visit the island I book in to pamper myself. I highly recommended stopping in to treat yourself. Everyone is so friendly at the spa.
Will be back again“

“Alana did an oil treatment plus massage on my hair and killed it. I came in with a lingering migraine and felt so much better when I left. Super affordable without sacrificing quality. She also gave me a great haircut. Such a good experience and wish I lived in Courtenay so I could come back.“

“Heather was amazing. My kid hates getting his hair cut. We have been to a number of higher priced salons, barbers, studios- and it’s always the same: “I hate my haircut”.
Tonight we went to First Choice figuring that if he’s gonna hate it anyway- it might as well be affordable. Heather spent a good amount of time getting to know my kid, trying to understand what he wanted, and then being thorough in giving him a good cut.

The result… after 13 years… FINALLY….

“This is the first time I’ve ever liked a haircut”

Thanks Heather,
You’ll see us again in a month or so!“

“I have been going to see Kimber for a few years now and it is always a great experience!! She is very knowledgeable and always has great advice on styling and cutting my fine, thin hair. Highly recommended you check out A Gemstone Hair Studio.?“

“I had my hair cut by Lynn last week. Best cut I have had in years. I will definitely be back!“

“Laura Lu is a great hairdresser for my short hair, respectful, always on time. It's always a pleasure to get a haircut in her studio.“

“Bob, my hairdresser was amazing. He did an amazing job on my troublesome hair. And having Aveda hair products was a bonus. Friendly people, I will definitely be back. Also clothing available, definitely go, check it out. It's a funky place, loved it, in downtown Courtenay.“

“Really awesome local salon. The girls are all really friendly and make you feel welcome. Also walked away with a super neat fade. Tough to find in the valley. Would highly recommend. ?“

“I had Bernadette cut my hair and she did an excellent job - it wasn’t too short and still looked feminine.“

“I cannot say enough good things about Bernice! She is so kind and welcoming. I’m new to the area so was trying out a new salon and usually have a hard time finding someone who will put layers in my long hair (sigh) but she listened, added as many as I wanted to lighten up my hair, it’s exactly what I wanted and she absolutely killed it. She was patient and took a little at a time till I was happy with it. She will for-sure be my go too from here on out. 10/10 absolute gem!“

“Bethany** did an amazing job on my hair yesterday! Her technique was flawless, and the results were absolutely beautiful. I felt like myself again, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Thank you, Bethany**, for your talent and care—you truly made my day!

Clean Salon & great staff , I will be back ! :)“

“Ashley has been doing my hair for 15 years. I'd never go anywhere else. This salon is fabulous.“

“Layered bob with bangs-- my hair looks and feels fuller and thicker with Claude's haircutting techniques. Versatile with how I can style it. An amazing and perfect cut in every way!“

“Best hair cut in a very long time!! And at a very reasonable rate price wise with a special rate for us older gals and seniors
Highly recommend her !“

“Joanne is always ready to accommodate me❤️?with my unpredictable schedule, and I always walk out the door feeling good about myself.“

“Emma gives me the best cuts I’ve ever had in my long life. She listens to what I say even if I can’t find the right words and understands that I don’t style my hair and gives me cuts that work with my no fuss lifestyle. Plus she has great stories and is very kind and loves dogs. I wish my hair grew faster so I could see her more often!!“
