Best Hair Salons In Nanaimo

“The best hair salon I’ve ever been to. My stylist, her trainer, the front end staff and all were amazing.“

“Ocea was very kind to me and very thorough throughout our appointment, I loved the results too :) and she gave me tea“

“I had an amazing experience here! The staff was warm and friendly and the environment was calm and relaxing. My stylist Ashley went above and beyond as I had not gotten my hair cut for over 2 years. She cut and styled my hair superbly and gave me some great tips on maintaining it from home. Thank you so much Ashley! I feel so refreshed and renewed!“

“It was my first time going to aura to get my hair done and it’s safe to say that I’ve never been happier with a stylist and results! My hair is very dark and has been dyed many many times, I reached out to stylist Kylee and sent her my inspo. Kylee did an amazing job and going over my wants, needs, and absolute no’s for this hair and even booked me in for a consultation and test strand to see what I could lift to! After that she had let me know it wouldn’t be exactly like the inspo I wanted but she was able to find something like I loved way more. During my appointment Kylee made sure I knew what was happening every step of the way and made sure I was always comfortable.

Thank you so much Aura I will definitely be back!!

And big thank you to Kylee!!“

“Once upon a time there was a troll!
He lived under a bridge with hair aplenty.
People would stare, make jokes and throw rocks at the sad lonely troll.
Finally a kind princess told him she could end his misery by giving him a wonderful new hair style!
In just a few crafty minutes, she had magically transformed the troll to a handsome Prince!
Now the village residents see him
In a new light, and marvel at his handsome appearance!
So he’s a much happy troll, and he’s moved uptown, to take up residence under a much nicer bridge!
Moral of the story is, some trolls are just one magical hair style away from happiness!😊
Thank you to Isabella ( the magic hair style princess! )

“I am super thrilled with my experience here. Excellent attention to detail and super friendly! My first time coming in, and will be coming back !“

“We have been seeing Leah for a couple of years. My daughter sees her for full blonde and I see her for grey blending. Both of us had a history of damage due to colouring but Leah has fixed us up and we are both so happy with our hair.“

“I went in for a 60 minute deep tissue massage with Gaia and she was lovely. She is very kind and caring and makes sure you’re comfortable the whole time. She will focus on whatever areas you prefer to have worked on and really gets into the tense spots. Highly recommend!“

“I’ve been going to Krysta for over a year now and she has nailed the blonde colour I was looking for! She’s been able to make my hair look amazing every visit.

My last visit I noticed another client getting hair extensions and immediately booked with Jenn to get some installed for my wedding. She matched my colour perfectly and got me in super last minute so I was wedding ready.

My hair turned out better than I could’ve imagined for my wedding day thanks to them <3“

“Myself & my husband both love Fary's haircuts. She's super easy to talk to and is very thorough. Absolutely recommend her.“

“My first visit to Modern Lox was an amazing experience! Tran is not only a talented and professional hairstylist, but also incredibly welcoming and attentive. She took the time to listen to what I wanted.

The salon was warm, inviting, and professionally run from start to finish. I left feeling confident, refreshed, and absolutely loving my hair. It's clear that Tran is passionate about her craft and truly cares about her clients.

I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend Tran and Modern Lox.“

She was officiant but not rushed. Massage chair and tea included! Hair feels healthy and she listened to exactly what I wanted.“

“Went and had my hair cut and a head massage by Aman. The massage was a fantastic experience. 10/10 recommend.“

“It's always the best visit with Rashon. Very professional while being friendly. I have been having my hair done at First Choice for years! Always happy!“

“Best hair salon in Nanaimo! The staff are so friendly and the customer service was like nothing I’ve seen before. If you are looking for a hair salon where the staff actually listen to you I recommend Mehron salon!“

“My daughter has been seeing Kelly at Hair Tech Salon for the past year or two, and we have had nothing but positive experiences. My daughter is naturally very shy and doesn't usually feel comfortable with people she doesn't know well, so the fact that she specifically asks to go back to Kelly says a lot. She has very long, thick hair, and Kelly does an amazing job with it every single time.

I also recently had the opportunity to see Xylia for my own hair. I have long, curly hair that had become extremely difficult to manage, and I had never been to a stylist who specialized in curly hair before. The difference was incredible. Not only did Xylia give me a proper curly cut, but she also took the time to teach me how to style and care for my curls at home. The improvement in how my hair looks and feels has been huge, and I finally feel confident managing it myself.

Both experiences have been fantastic, and it is clear that the staff genuinely care about helping their clients look and feel their best. I would highly recommend Hair Tech Salon to anyone looking for skilled, knowledgeable, and friendly stylists.“

“Amber does a great cut. She has a great understanding of what my needs are and my “abilities” to follow up at home!! Chameleon is a very friendly comfortable salon.“

“Megan D did my hair and I love it she was so sweet and this salon is so clean and nice she did an amazing job highly recommend I was so scared but she made my hair dreams come true ❤ thank you sm Megan!!!“

“Another great cut from Allison at Shear Creations. I wear my (baby fine) hair very short, and she gets it just right every time. Next appointment already booked. ?“

“This place is great awhile back I got a hair cut here and now it's my go to place they have great service and very experienced staff. They are good!“

“I've been a client of Tass's since I found her in 2017. Once you find a stylist you like, you just don't leave. There's a welcoming feeling when I walk through the door. The staff are skillful and friendly.
The Edge is my happy place. Thank you, ladies. ❤️“
