27 Reviews for Verve Hair Design Salon & Spa Rated 4.5/5 Stars

UNDERWHELMED December 18, 2011

I read a lot of great reviews, so a friend and I visited for a hair cut. We booked an appointment, but ended up having to wait 45 minutes before she was ready to take us. They were very friendly and offered us water as it was summer. My friend got a cut from Yen, and it was mediocre. A very basic trim and it wasn't even styled nice, as her next customer was waiting. She paid 50$ and could have gotten a better job elsewhere for much less. My haircut was good, but for that price I at least expected the salon to look a little more upscale and better decorated, with more time spent on a hair consultation.

My first time getting my hair done at “Verve Hair Design & Spa” HWY 48 /16th Ave was on the September 2010. I had a great experience while I was going to attend the wedding of my niece. Since I have very curly and puffy hair, I got it done for the first time. So at the wedding everybody liked my hair, they were surprised and were asking me how you did that.
I was so happy because my hair stylist did a great job. Now after 6 months I went again to “Verve Hair Design & Spa” and got my hair done. Trust me they do such a great job I could never think of, now I have such nice straight, smooth and shiny hair which makes my life easier. I don’t have to spend hours to take care of my hair. If you have curly and puffy hair and it takes you long to style it you should go to this spa you will never regret it. The staff is very expert and is very hospitable as well; they take care of every customer and offer refreshment as well.

EXCELLENT February 26, 2011

I've always wanted to perm my hair but most perms usually last a couple months and don't make your hair very voluminous. I went to a salon once and my hair was just slightly wavy after a perm. When I saw my friend with very curly hair that did not seem to fade for almost a year, I immediately asked her where she got it permed. She introduced me to Yen and I went straight to her. The perm took about 2/3 hours and Yen and her staff were wonderful. They are very friendly and took amazing care of my hair. It takes a lot of patience to perm someone's hair but she has the magical touch. I loved my first perm and I even went back a second time a year later. She wasn't lying. It actually does last a year! My hair used to be pin straight and thin, making it look boring and flat but with the perm, it's so fluffy and wavy and curly. I always get compliments for my hair and I would recommend Yen to anyone who asks.

THE BEST OUT THERE! January 19, 2011

I've been a client of Yen's going on 3 years now and every single time I've gone to Yen I've left ecstatic about my new hair. Verve is always alive with beautiful conversation and amazing new hair ideas. I trust Yen 100% of the time, which leads me to recommend Verve Hair Design, Yen and her entire staff to anyone, anywhere!

I'm not sure why Verve would get the review that it did on December 28, 2010. My experience there has simply been the best.

Not only does the lead hairstylist, Yen, use the most innovative products, but she is up-to-date on all of the current trends and does her best to accommodate her clients' schedules.

When my husband and I first moved to Markham, I tried to find a hairdresser that I felt comfortable with. Let me be clear--I have been to MANY high-end salons--none of which compare to Verve. Yen has kept me as a repeat customer due to her attention to detail, positive attitude, skill and genuine care for her clients.

If you are looking for a great hairstylist, look no further. In my books, Yen is simply THE BEST!

YEN IS AMAZING December 29, 2010

For years I've been going from place to place trying to find a salon where I would get quality cuts for my hair. One day I decided to go to Verve and was pleasantly surprised. Not only do they have high quality service, Yen is also one of the most skillful stylist I've been to. Not only is she a pleasant person but she understood exactly what I wanted my hair to look like and feel like. Before, I would be very nervous to get a haircut because I'd worry about how my hair would look like afterwards, but now with Yen, I am relaxed and worry-free as I trust and have full confidence in her and after every cut I feel amazing.

I went to do colouring at Verve as well and I was also very satisfied with the turn out. They were very attentive about what colour I wanted to achieve and even though my hair used up three whole bottles of dye (I have thick hair) the price was still very fair (paid around $70 for wash, colour and dye).

Another thing I'd like to mention are the hair washes. I didn't know there was much technique to hair washing but there certainly is at Verve. Every hair wash is a wash and massage combined into one! It is very relaxing and soothing!

All in all a great place with quality service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone!

VERY GOOD! December 29, 2010

I come to Verve Hair Design Salon regularly the service, and the work is amazing. I read the review below me and I could understand her frustration, but is there a salon that is perfect? I really enjoy it, and so do the other people with the high ratings and experiences.

The first time I went there, I really liked the service, it was quick, and I really liked how they worked. As now I regularly come back, and I wouldn't choose another Salon.

My regular hairstylist is on mat leave and I wanted to try some place new. This was the first time going to this place and I have no idea what the hype is about. I JUST came back from this place and I had the worst experience EVER! I've asked to get my hair dyed and highlighted and if they are able to do it within 1.5 hours. They said yes. I specifically asked for Yen cause EVERYONE was praising her in the reviews.

Yen asked me what i wanted, barely listened and left me with her assistant. Her assistant didn't know what she was doing. She started to dye my hair and didn't do my roots. Yen yelled at her and she came back to finish the roots. Realizing her assistant had no idea what she was doing, Yen didn't even attend to me. Her assistant rinsed off my hair and didn't shampoo it, until Yen asked about it. She took me back to shampoo the chemicals our of my hair. They didn't have time to do my highlights. Yen came back to blow dry my hair. Didn't even ask how i wanted it.

It took 2 hours to just dye my hair. No cut. no highlights. No styling. My hair is really simple. Long and straight and is not difficult to deal with at all. It usually takes 2 hours to get my hair cut, dyed and highlighted at other places.

I paid $90 for a half ass dye job and for "blow drying". I didn't tip them. I couldn't wait to get out of there. I wouldn't come back and trust them to highlights! I would not recommend this place at all.

AMAZING! July 20, 2010

I came into the salon with a cut and colour done from one of the other well-known mall salons. The cut was horrible, the colour was not at all what I wanted and the stylist was rude.
I made an appointment at Salon Verve 2 weeks later and Yen assessed what needed to be done to correct the cut. She worked her magic and the new cut and colour turned out great!
I left the salon feeling like a million bucks :)
Thanks to Yen and her assistant for such a positive experience!

AMAZING! July 17, 2010

I came into the salon with a cut and colour done by another salon that I was completely unsatisfied with and Yen knew exactly what to do to fix it. If I had been able to cut and colour my own hair, it would have turned out the way it did.
I'm totally happy with the way I was treated and my new look; thanks Yen and helper.

I got highlights in my hair today and a wash and stykle and Yen did an amazing job! I brought her a picture of what i wanted and i came out of Verve Hair Salon with what i wanted and more! Even if you go into the salon not knowing exactly what you want, Yen uses her own exceptional opinions to give you a look that you'll end up loving!

I also wanted to add that Yen is great at reading what people need -- she considers your work schedule, lifesyle, etc. when styling or coloring your hair. Trust her! She knows what she's doing! - Amanda Look

I'm originally from Chicago in the U.S. so when I arrived in Toronto I had no idea who to choose to be my new stylist. I heard about Yen from my boss and after just one visit I knew Yen was by FAR the best stylist I've ever met. And I've met my fair share of stylists! I've never had the experience of going to a salon and actually getting the EXACT haircut that I want.

During my first visit Yen asked me what concerns I have about my hair - and the things I wish I could change about my hair. I complained about my limp, thin hair. She told me to perm it -- which I'd always been told by my previous stylists NOT to do because it'd look "too 80's". She ensured me that the perm was the way to go for me because it'd give me volume and thicken my hair. Something about Yen made me trust her implicitly, so on my next visit I tried it. I was SHOCKED at how great my hair looked after. When I blew it dry it was full of volume and MUCH thicker. She was exactly right. And it gave me much more versatility with my hair - I could wear it curly, wavy, or straight (and all styles has so much more life in them!).

Since then Yen has given me exactly what I want, every time. Thank you Yen for being such an incredible stylist and knowing how to give me exactly what I want!

I am a stubborn client -- I don't like change, but I want to look good. Yen, you and your staff are great - you've never pushed me to do anything that I wasn't comfortable with, but you always listened. I tend to resist things which are dramatic, but I don't want to look the same day in and day out. That's why I go to a professional hair stylist. After more than five years, I can say that you have helped me out of my cocoon, by encouraging me to try small things. A small highlight here, a small detail in the cut, a different angle, a different layer. It was never wild or crazy, because you knew what I was like. But it was always something and for a woman who's husband rarely notices anything, I always received a compliment upon my return from the salon. Thank you Yen, for being patient with me. For listing to me. For encouraging me to try new things.

As a shy but loyal client, I want to give Yen a 5 star review. She's made a difference in how I feel about myself and she's challenged me. She doesn't tell you things just to make you feel good -- she gives you honest feedback. And in the end, you feel great because she's always trying to make you look & feel your best.

THANK YOU YEN!

p.s. those scalp massages are the best.

I cannot recommend Yen and her team highly enough. My every single experience in the salon has been good for body and soul ... have been treated like a queen every time and have felt thoroughly cared for throughout. Yen herself listens so well ... which when combined with her skill and a vision for what might look best, has always left me feeling completely satisfied with my hair when I leave. The scalp massages and manicures are also a real treat!

Hi Yen

After all your work, my hair colour looks wonderful - it actually has depth from the silver rinse and it is very shiny - the blonde colour from the highlights is great and the cut of course is wonderful.
I wanted to say thanks for doing all the research and working so hard on my hair - I feel like a star!

Thanks so much,

Sydney Patterson

NEVER DISAPPOINTED October 10, 2009

Yen's been my hairdresser for over 4 years and I always leave feeling ecstatic about my hair! I've moved around a lot between the GTA and York but I always travel to Yen to get my hair done because I want it done right and done beautifully.

Not only is Yen extremely talented, but she's a wonderful person with a heart of gold! I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair, period.

I've been going to the Verve for over a year now. I read a lot of good reviews about how Yen (the owner and stylist) pampers and accomodates her clients so I checked the place out. True to their testimonies, Yen gives only the finest service indeed. She never fails to greet me all-smiles by my first name whenever I come. She also gives me very good rates. Just today, I came in for a haircut but she added in a free hair treatment worth $25 and hand cream all because my birthday is coming up. I didn't even know she does that there! I was extremely grateful for that. Her new assistant, Nancy, was very nice too.

Yen's passion for what she is doing shows in how she deals with her clients. She pays a great deal of attention to them and what they want. I always leave the place not only looking better but also feeling better.

I always look forward to going to the Verve. It is nice to have the owner herself look after you and treat you not just as a customer, but also as someone she cares about. More power to Yen and the Verve.

YEN YEN September 26, 2009

I have been going to Yen for about 5 years now and I'm sure there are other great people out there in this profession but there is no woman like Yen. She wil come in early or stay late even if it requires her to sit around and wait for you but that is what she does. She does exactly what I ask for and does a terrific job. She is a delight to be around. I wish her all the best because she deserves it.
