Reviews of Taya Hair Salon in Toronto

AVOID BOOKING STELLA PARK. WORST HAIR STYLIST - CHOPPY HAIRCUT FOR $60. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM HER - but all other staff members seemed nice and friendly. Stella was unprofessional and did not exemplify what I expected from Taya as a first time customer.

I went to the salon today for a women’s haircut. I waited for 15 - 20 min despite having an appointment and Stella rushed me in without offering a robe or cleaning her station that was full of the previous clients’ hair all on top of the counter. She didn’t ask me what kind of haircut I wanted or introduced herself; no conversation at all. She rudely asked if I needed a wash the second I sat down so she ushered me to the washing station. She threw a towel on my face and washed my hair roughly for less than 1min. No conditioner and no massage; barely cleaning. No towel around my neck or clothes and she was splashing water into my ear, on the backside of my neck and onto my clothes. I had to ask her if she will be asking what hair cut I want, as she seemed to have completely forgotten to ask me. She eventually asked me what I wanted for my haircut, which was hard to show after my hair became soaking wet. She aggressively dried my hair, yanking my hair left and right and using excessively hot air. Apparently she’s been a hair stylist for 20 years but her technique is clearly not there. I didn’t know my haircut was TERRIBLE until I went home and showered. My hair came out extremely choppy with MANY distinct sections that were not blended AT ALL with the rest of the haircut. I wish I booked with someone else. Now I need to find another salon to fix the mess she made. I don’t see any reason to return to Taya and would advise others to choose wisely before booking an appt at Taya.

Also they only take cash and debit FYI.
