I just had my hair died and cut by Carlie. It was my first time at Elevation Hair Studio and I am super happy. The place is really nice and all the staff are friendly especially the owner. I will be coming here from now on and will recommend it to friends and family.

Had my first visit to the salon. Very beautiful! Kendra coloured and cut my hair and I am very pleased. Soft and healthy looking- quite a feat for my fine hair!

Great Welcoming space! Melissa is amazing, warm and inviting. She is thorough with her services, her equipment and work area is always impeccably tidy and clean.

Jamie-Lyn is the most amazing stylist and colourist. I have naturally curly hair and she is the only stylist I trust. She is great at recommending highlights and lowlights that look natural, but she also does an incredible job blowing out and straightening my curly locks. My hair has never looked or felt better. Prior to finding Jamie-Lyn as a stylist, my hair use to be dry and not growing well, caused by incorrect or poor store bought products. Jamie-Lyn has recommended products and brought my hair back to a healthy condition and shine. I appreciate all that she has done to make my hair always look and feel it’s best. She’s an incredible stylist who truly does care for her clients hair. Thanks so much.

After a terrible experience in trying to lighten my hair, Kendra swooped in and took charge. She has helped heal the damage and provided me with the color I had visions to gain two years ago. She knew exactly how to deal with my color correction and make me a happy lady full of smiles and confidence. Trust her with my hair 100% not just color but also with my curls and waves. You will not be disappointed. ????♥️

Nicole Hough

I was in a last minute time crunch and desperately needed my hair done! Kendra answered my email right away, made time for me the next day! THIS PLACE WAS INCREDIBLE! I cant even begin to explain how comfortable and welcoming she was along with the atmosphere of her salon. It is a perfect size to be able to feel right at home. AND so CLEAN!!! Such a personal experience, Kendra was AMAZING!!! She explained what she was doing, what products she was using. She answered every question i had, she knew her products inside and out but NEVER pushed them on me! Overall amazing experience and my hair turned out great too! Worth checking out if you looking for something new or a change!

Elevation Hair Studio is a beautiful salon filled with professional and kind people!

I would recommend Kendra and Elevation Hair Studio to everyone!! Thanks again for the incredible hair!

Laurie

Highly recommended Elevation Hair Studio. The atmosphere and the prices are great! Jamielyn is extremely knowledgeable, highly professional and I am never disappointed. I wouldn't trust anyone but her .

Fariha Rahman

My hairdresser, who is also the proud owner of this business - Kendra - was awesome. I had thick long hair which I wanted to get chopped to shoulder length and she handled it like a true professional with years of experience. I am very happy with the results and will definitely return for haircuts in the future. The salon itself is beautiful and clean inside. They have gone the extra mile to ensure proper distance is kept between workers and customers and also provided hand sanitizer and masks for clients. Elevation Hair Studio is bound to have (if not already) many loyal clients due to the high quality of service and reasonable prices.

Ellie Ziegler

I went in for a body perm by Kendra, she consulted with me first to make sure that she could achieve the exact look I was hoping for and I love the result! The shop itself is clean and I felt safe there in the midst of this pandemic. I feel like a lot of care was put into making their customers and staff feel secure. I’ve bounced around a lot of salons in Kingston and this is now my favourite.

Karen Depew

I was looking for a new hairstylist in the west end of Kingston and reached out to Elevation based on the extremely positive reviews. Kendra was amazing! We had a detailed consultation first to talk about my hair and what I liked/didn't like and a plan for a new cut and colour. She knew exactly what I was trying to achieve. I am thrilled with the result! My cut is fantastic and my hair feels so healthy and shiny and I'm excited to start using the Goldwell products that she used on my hair. Kendra also took the time to show me some styling tricks to make my cut easy to manage. The salon is beautiful and has a relaxing, laid-back vibe and I felt 100% safe with their Covid protocols. I also enjoyed the music and conversation! I look forward to going back in 5 weeks for my next appointment. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Sara Montgomery

Fantastic hair salon! I've loved what Kendra has done with my hair both times I've been there, and feel so comfortable in the beautiful space. Great atmosphere, I'll be going back for sure!

Karen Donnan

Lets just say that Kendra saved me from having to wear a ball cap any longer, after I experienced a hair gone 'way wrong' kind of story. She's a master at what she does and she certainly has my business for life! Her new salon is top notch and a joy to be pampered in!

Laura Taylor

I moved to Kingston just over a year ago and was so lucky to find Kendra so QUICKLY! Her colour expertise has my hair feeling the healthiest it’s been in a long time (likely since before highlights 20+ years ago!). It was a blessing to find Kendra just before COVID - her highlights let me “cheat” between colouring without the stripe/line that shows it’s been a while...that being said, I was never great at sticking to a rigid schedule so it was all going to work out anyway! Her studio is beautiful and spacious - amazing to see her work to add all today’s necessary precautions into her newly renovated studio. Very safe in our new normal. What can I say? She’s a pro - would highly recommend booking your next appointment at Elevation Hair Studio.

Sherrie Giroux

Kendra does a excellent professional consultation with you each time I been there. There is no surprises you know your going to get what you have asked for. Great atmosphere, very friendly and professional staff. You will leave happy every time.

Colleen Gorrie

I had the pleasure of meeting Kendra today for a colour correction, I was going from a dark royal blue to an icy silver baby blue. She was able to achieve the exact shade I wanted and even made my hair healthier in the process! My appointment was 5 hours but Kendra did not make it feel that way, she is so friendly and easy to talk to! I will definitely be going back to Kendra in the future and I would recommend her to anyone especially those needing a colour correction or wanting to go platinum without killing their hair. Did I mention she took me super last minute when she could have had the weekend off? Excellent stylist and amazing person!

Rielly Lynch

Amazing experience! Would highly recommend to anyone. They took the time to ask questions and made sure that I was okay with everything they did.

Brandon Andrews

I recently went to Elevation Hair Studios and was blown away by my experience there. Firstly I received the best haircut I've ever had by Sarah, and secondly the entire experience at Elevation was amazing. The atmosphere was so relaxing and enjoyable. Definitely recommend!

Laurie Cowan

Fantastic hair studio! Fit my son in right away and the atmosphere is so so friendly !! Plus they offer a military discount ????????????????

myrna mc

kendra, co owner of Elevation Hair Studio, has been doing my hair for 20+years and i would not go anywhere else! she always listens to what i'm trying to acheive, and her vast experience makes it happen every time without fail. She truly has a passion and gift for doing hair!

Lisa Gaffield

I was looking for a stylist in Kingston and reached out based on the reviews. Kendra and her team did not disappoint! I needed a new cut and wanted to transition from dark hair to grey. I came with a picture and Kendra knew exactly what I was looking to achieve. She was knowledable and explained the process, giving me the confidence to take the plunge. I am thrilled with the result. My cut is fantastic and my hair feels so healthy. I can't wait for Step two. Thank you for a wonderful experience! I highly recommend!

Maddison Barkley

The Elevation Hair Studio is a new salon that is super edgy and modern. The people are welcoming and fun. The time flew by fast and I did not want to leave. My hair dresser was Kendra and she’s an all around great person. She corrected my hair cut and offered me suggestions in colour and products. I am looking forward to coming back! Thank you so much!

Heather Peters

I love my hair!! Thanks Kendra!! Lovely group at the salon.

Candis A McIntosh

Kendra (the owner) did my hair. I was looking for a drastic change from fairly long hair to a short and very sassy style. She did a great job. It is a very clean and pretty salon, and you feel very safe in there during these strange times.

kim macmillan

JamieLyn is my favourite!! She always does an amazing job!!! Elevation studio is so nice and an amazing atmosphere !!!

Nicole Pilgrim

A great new hair salon in the West end finally! Kendra is amazingly talented and knowledgeable with all the latest colour and cutting techniques. She really understands what people are looking for and more importantly is able to make it happen!!

Jodi P

I was looking for a new salon a year ago and thankfully I found Kendra and her team. Kendra always listens to what I want and offers her professional opinion with kindness. She makes sure she understands exactly what you want done by listening and focusing on you. Her salon is so clean and stylish without overpowering music - so you can actually have a conversation! I bring my son and daughter for cuts with Carley who is equally awesome! I wouldn’t go anywhere else and highly recommend 100%. The Goldwell products used/sold are an added bonus!

So great to get back for services at Elevation. Thank you Melissa and Kendra for making my experience so safe during Covid 19 and as always Melissa, you do an amazing job! Joan H.

Christine Wheeler

A beautiful atmosphere with extremely talented stylists.

Jennifer

I was well overdue for a cut. I had flexibility with the style of cut and I am very happy with what I got. I will be getting some color with my next visit.

jd c

This salon has a great atmosphere and the people were great. I had a colour touch up and cut. Carley did a great job with the colour (love it) and she tamed my thick hair. I’d absolutely recommend this salon.

Patty Young

My hair is short, straight, and fine. Kendra worked her magic, and now my hair has a sassy easy-care style that I love. Kendra is amazing! The whole experience, from booking the appointment to the actual cut, was very welcoming and professional. I will definitely be returning to Elevation Hair Studio.

Heather

So beyond happy with the colour service, cut and style-thank you Kendra!

Krista Kennedy

Thank you Kendra for the amazing color and cut! See you again soon.

Christina Asperilla

I was very happy with the service I got from Carley, she captured what I wanted and it looked awesome! I have Asian hair with darker tones, but she was able to give some dimension to my hair by doing foil colour. She also gave me a fresh cut and treatment that made my hair feel so soft and smooth. The place was also very clean, and proper safety protocols were in place. Staff’s also very nice and pleasant. Highly recommend this place - I will definitely be back.

Bonnie Henault

Elevation Studio is easy to overlook in this location on Progress Ave, but what a true gem is hidden inside. The fabulous and friendly team made the entire salon experience unforgettable. Thank you Kendra for a great colour and cut. My husband immediately noticed and commented on my hair when I got home. He loved it....need I say anything more?

Leanne McDonald

I moved to the Kingston area this past summer and was looking for a new hair stylist. After reading reviews about Kendra and the staff at Elevation, I booked an appointment, and BOY! I was NOT disappointed! Kendra listened to some ideas I had about how I wanted my hair done, and then she worked her magic. She is very knowledgable about hair colouring, and different cuts, and how it would work with my hair. I have now found my permanent salon! ????

Delanya Podgers

Highly recommend Elevation Hair Studio! Kendra is friendly and welcoming and I left very happy with my colour and cut. The salon is very clean and follows all necessary safety protocols.

Vicki R

A wonderful experience with each and every visit! Just had my first cut and colour since the Covid 19 lock down, I have to say they have gone above and beyond to ensure the safety of customers and staff. Customers are greeted with having hands sanitized upon entry. Customers bring a mask and staff also wear masks. They have plexiglass partitions between wash sinks and one at the counter where you pay. They even sanitize chairs between customers! I felt very much at ease during my long awaited haircut and was thrilled with the results as always. Thanks a million Kendra ????
