Reviews of Gina Hair Salon (Hairdressing)

THE KPIM

I got a men's haircut here by Dada. It was one of the best haircuts I have ever received in my life. I brought a photo of what I wanted and he carefully examined it confirming what he would do to my hair. He was extremely detail oriented throughout the entire haircut, taking his time. He also made me feel very comfortable by having a nice conversation with me. After cutting and washing my hair, he gave me tips on how to style my hair. I paid $30 before tax and tip. I highly recommend Dada.

Before I share my review, I want to be clear that I've always been very easy going about my hair. I'm not someone who goes to salons with pictures of celebrities expecting that I walk out looking the same way. The reality is that hair texture and hair density is different for everyone. I have realistic expectations and I'm also pretty care-free about my hair because I know it'll grow back. I've had super long hair as well as pixie cuts, so I'm not someone who is attached to her hair. As a result, I've never complained about a haircut before. This is the first time that I have ever walked away from a haircut wanting to cry. I specifically asked that the layers around my face NOT go above my chin, but she cut them up to my cheek bone. Even worse, the layers were all choppy and didn't blend into the rest of my hair. The layers around my face literally look like a child took a pair of scissors and made a horizontal cut into my hair. Aside from the layers around my face, the overall shape of my hair was so unflattering and outdated. The back of my head looks like I have two hair lengths, which means that she did a really poor job of blending in layers. When the hairdresser asked if the length of my hair was okay, I told her that it was too short - way shorter than I had expected, but she proceeded to cut my hair even shorter. I think she totally misunderstood what I said, but never once asked for clarification. I've had my hair cut in many salons where English is not the first language of the hairdressers; in these experiences, the hairdressers were extra cautious knowing that there was a language barrier. At Apple, the hairdresser was over-confident and just cut away without checking in with me at any stage. This over-confidence led to a horrendous haircut that didn't align with my expectations at all. The hairdresser asked if I wanted my hair shampooed after the cut, but I suspected that meant I would have to pay more. This is a very unusual practice for me. I've always received shampoo, cut, and style from other salons. After the cut, she asked if I wanted the ends of my hair curled or rounded. I asked her to give me rounded ends. She was so sloppy that the under layers of my hair were pin straight while the top layers had a kink at the bottom (not rounded at all!) My hair looked like a mess. I'm sure the hairdresser knew exactly how I felt by the horrified look on my face. I literally wanted to cry when I left. I have never left a salon feeling so unhappy.

I used to go to Korean Hair Salon regularly in Toronto, and I found here as I walk by korean towns. I permed my hair called Korean digital perm ? by hair dresser Ann ,she even gave me a treatment for damaged hairs,The curls came out really nicely, as I wanted and i was really satisfied.. I would definitely go to apple again!

Got my hair dyed here. The colours did not turn out what I wanted. All my coworkers were surprised that I got this hair by professionals :( Disappointed.

I waited for long time when I dyed my hair there, you would waste ur time on it and they did the worst job I’ve ever seen. Don’t go to this place if you would like to do ur hair.

I love this salon! Gina is so sweet. I went to see her for a hair cut and she gave me even a better hair cut than the original one. She made me look overly cute. Honestly I am glad i did not listen to the reviews and i went to see her. I have seen lots of girls doing their hair there while on my visit and they all looked like those cute Idols ( I am not korean or asian by the way) but she knew how to make that hair style suit me. Thank u Gina so much

Evan Heesu Lim

I have been going to Ginas Hair Salon for many years now. My son who is special needs will not go anywhere else. The staff are attentive and courteous and I have always been satisfied with the excellent service we receive. I can trust the hairdressers to give me and my son a style of haircut that compliments us. I highly recommend this hidden gem.

Vi Tran

Gina works miracles! Her technical cutting skills are unmatched and she wields a razor with precision! She was able to see the texture and body of my hair and bring my locks back to life. The salon is beautiful and professional yet incredibly welcoming and calming. I will definitely be making this place my dedicated salon from now on.

Darryl Lee

Thank you Sarry Park, for my new haircut, you rocked it!! Love her professionalism + Great personality. Going back to get my hair-color done in couple month.

Kyle Bang

So I've been here for a digital perm twice and currently at the salon for my third! Gina's always done a fantastic job and she's a super sweet woman. She always offers tea or coffee haha. I love waking up to voluminous wavy hair!! I've never had any trouble communicating in English with her, although I understand some customers frustrations. Keep in mind though this is a place frequented by Koreans! It's in the "Korean Village" after all... Anyway I come with photos of what I want and I make sure she knows what's important to me, etc where my normal part is. I was living in the neighborhood last year and recently moved to Inglewood, but I'll always come back here!!

Laura O

Not my favorite. She did not listen to what I wanted and rushing for the next customer.

Le Steph

First time dropping in today, Gina was very courteous and nice. She even knew what I wanted just by looking at my hair. She gave me good suggestions, cut it better than other Korean places (2 block style). The cut was fairly quick, clean and well done. She shampooed my hair while I was still sitting in the chair upright, this was a first for me but it worked Haha I will definitely come back.

I’ve been coming to this place ever 3 weeks regularly. Lui is def. one of the best hairdressers ???? Very professional & friendly!

It was very good experience very good hair artist.

(Translated) I told you the length you wanted before you cut your hair, but you cut it too short, cut it without any talk, feed it with a curling iron and get more money. I told you it's short, I keep cutting it left so I cut it like a scissor. (Original) 머리짜르기전에 원하는길이를 말씀드렸는데 그냥 너무짧게 짤라주셨고 아무이야기없이 컷트하뒤 고데기로 피더니 돈을더받으시네요 . 짧다고 말씀드리니까 계속 왼쪽짜르니까 오른쪽이길고해서 그냥 가위로오리듯이 잘라내시더라구요 그냥너무별로였습니다.

(Translated) If you're going to cut a man's hair, you should just go to the Canadian Salon. It's only 31 to cut a man's hair..... You can get twice as cheap as going to a Canadian shop. (Original) 개비쌈 남자컷 하실거면 그냥 캐네디언 살론 가야 좋음 남자 머리 컷하는데 31불임..... 캐네디언 샵 가면 두배 싸게 하실수 있뜸.

I’ve been going to Gina Hair Salon for 3 years now and I couldn’t be happier. Lui is the best hair stylist ever seen in Calgary. Gina is an amazing stylist too. Great experience and service as always. It’s even better after the renovation!
