I really love this salon. Tekashi is precise, thorough, and a perfectionist. What I love most is that after my hair grows back out, it still maintains a nice shape and style as opposed to becoming limp and dull. The salon space and atmosphere are also very pleasant and comfortable. Highly recommend!

I get my eye lashes done at AOI and it has always been a great experience. Lashes are done with high quality and customer service is exceptional. They respond quickly. Highly, highly recommended!

Had a nice hair cut from Takeshi, very skillful hairdresser. It’s my go to salon in Vancouver now. Highly recommend.

Absolutely recommend this salon. The attention of Takeshi and the colour he did to my pretty damaged hair was spectacular. His attention to detail and kindness made me feel very comfortable and the years of experience they have is noteworthy. Will be back for sure ?

In the attached photos, you'll see the before and after shots of my visit to the salon. While I was pleased with the outcome and particularly liked the style I got, I can't quite give it a full five stars. At $95, I expected more from the overall experience. Perhaps offering some tea, a face mask, organizing the place and playing relaxing music could enhance the ambiance. Additionally, the salon's back area was cluttered with pallets, giving it a messy and disorganized appearance. As someone who values relaxation during a haircut, this detracted from my enjoyment. Now, I'm just eagerly waiting for my hair to grow back—it's been three months since this haircut!

Been twice to have a cut, trim and simple layers by Takeuchi. His skills and experience shows in the final result.And the service is great. He has great memory about what we talked about even if the visits are almost 8 months apart ?I also had a head spa last summer. Loved it and I'm looking forward to my next one when the season warms up.

Takeshi has great skills, but he overcharges you for "extra" services you didn't even ask for. For example, I asked for a haircut and I was charged for a styling fee, treatment fee (he literally sprayed something on my hair for a few seconds), and other ridiculous fees that I did not even consent to. If there are additional/hidden fees, that should be brought up BEFORE I get the haircut, not after. He was a nice guy but this happened to me enough times that I no longer go here. Paying over $200 for a simple trim is ridiculous.

I’ve been going to this hair salon for many years and hands down the best haircut I’ve ever got anywhere. I always get compliments and the level of detail and dimensions Takeshi creates elevates haircut into an art form. Can’t recommend highly enough.
