I have very fine 2C curls and have always struggled with hairstylists weighing down my hair with product, or not cutting my hair properly to facilitate good layers with my fine texture. Mimi has cut my hair twice and both times it has left with me with the BEST SHAPE AND BOUNCE of my life. Shes so sweet and welcoming and does a fantastic job.
I truly truly truly LOVE this haircut! So great! So many compliments. So easy to style. These guys know what they're doing.
Such an amazing experience. Great group of women. Very professional and knowledgeable.
I was very skeptical on visiting as I have extremely curly and frizzy hair, and it seems not many hair dressers are able to work with my hair type 3b. I drove from Kingston Ontario for this appointment and was hoping I didn't waste my time and my money. My stylist was Mia. I was blown away. I couldn't believe their technique and her experience on working with my hair maintenance hair. I learned a lot about my hair and how to style it. It was an education for me she explained the hows and whys and solutions with me, I left very satisfied and thrilled by my experience. She also taught me the correct way to use the curly hair products . Very worth the drive Very worth seeing Mia and will be sharing my experience about the Curl Ambassadors. Thank you so much Mia
I absolute love it here and I’ve been coming here for roughly around 2-3 years. I’m never going to another hair salon ever again.
The place is nice
The staff really know curls and it was refreshing to have a stylist who understands working with curly hair. I highly recommend them.
Have been going here for years and always receive 10/10 service! All of the stylists are extremely knowledgeable in curly hair and will help guide you through any questions. It is worth the price -- salons that specialize in natural hair are few and far in between.
Great staff! Really heard what I wanted and executed :) booked another appointment.
I had the best experience at the Curl Ambassadors with Mia. I've never had a hairdresser really listen to me when deciding what is best for my hair and my lifestyle, but Mia asked all the right questions and took everything I told her into account. I learned so much about technique and product for home styling. My curls have never looked so good, even 2 weeks after my hair appointment.
Roxana is amazing! It was the first time I cut my hair in a long time and my first time at this salon. Roxana was so kind and gave me the layers I looking for! She also took the time to ask me how I currently style my hair and which products I use then provided me with tips and suggested products that are better suited for my 3A/3B curl type. While working on my hair she let me know everything she was doing and which products and techniques were being used! Will definitely be going back and recommend this salon to anyone who has curly hair!
Supper pleased with my hair cut done by Paola. She also gave me tips on how to treat my curls. It was an amazing experience.
Loved my curl do. Everything was through and Meisha walked me thru all the steps to make sure I was comfortable Follow me on Instagram for more reviews @24kgoldnmelanin
I've had 2 haircuts at Curl Ambassadors with Sophia and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I was specifically looking for a salon downtown near where I live and the Harbord Street location is perfect for me. I really like the cozy feel of the place and have had great customer service there. Sophia was easy to talk to about my initial Curly Doo. She did exactly what I wanted her to do, which was even out the shape. She showed me how to wash and dry my curls correctly. She showed me how to use a product I'd bought on my own in the past but wasn't using correctly and hadn't liked. Now I use that product all the time. I'm wearing my hair curly most of the time now, rather than straightened, which is great. My hair feels much healthier overall and I love my curls again. I only cut my hair twice a year and I intend to keep seeing Sophia. Thanks!
First time I was here, I was disappointed. I asked for nice oval, the usual with curly hair, what I got is straight cut at the bottom. Now this with no layers looks awful on curly hair. You’d think a hairdresser who is doing curly hair would know and avoid this. Anyway, I thought I didn’t explain well what I want. Second time I went, I made sure to explain in detail what I want. Unfortunately, the result is even more disappointing. I asked for a little cut to refresh the ends. I am literally missing inches on places. She tried to hide it with the styling, not allowing the hair to curl up too much, so it is less noticeable. On top of that when I made known that I do not like the cut, the girl got upset and started demonstrating attitude. Quyana, you can’t cut hair as required by your clients, and for sure should be more polite to the people who are giving you business. Don’t waist your money.
THIS IS AN UPDATE TO MY REVIEW: Because of my bad experience I was offered a free deep condition and style. Sydney did my hair and I was happy with how it turned out. I got it done on Sunday and lasted about 4 days before i did single braids and a head wrap for Friday. I think the cold weather is drying out my hair so a protective style was necessary. I did book myself another condition and style 6 months from now. I probably wont get them to cut my hair again still but its nice to have someone do my hair for once. Changed my review from 3 stars to 4 based on professionalism and my curls did look and feel nice.----------- A bit disappointed with the service here. I got my hair cut by the same girl who did my hair the past two times. For whatever reason she butchered my hair the third time to the point where I had to find time to go back and get them to fix it. I got it "fixed" by another stylist there but it wasn't actually fixed. My hair was very choppy and uneven on both sides to the point where I couldn't wear a pony tail without it looking ridiculous. In fairness I will say that they were nice about the situation. They gave me full reimbursement and a complimentary cut and style which I am not sure if i am going to use yet because it seems like my hair cant be handled. Even though my experience was bad shockingly the past two times they were professional in they're resolution which is why they get 3 stars. I have type 3 hair and thought I found a curly hair spot that I can rely on...now i'm not sure as I find them inconsistent. The hunt continues for now to find someone who can do my hair and me end up loving it...
I've been a curly girl my whole life and I went to this salon when they first opened. I learned SOOOO much and my curls had never looked so good. I realized I had been styling my hair wrong my whole life. If you're a curly girl in the GTA you gotta try these guys at least once!!
I love the curl ambassadors. Very knowledgeable stylists, I can definitely trust them with my hair. They also help me find the best products, and new techniques to make my curls better. Always on time. Only draw back is it’s very hard to find appointments.
Curl Ambassadors is amazing! They are friendly, profession, knowledgeable and caring. Their support on my journey toward loving my curly hair was instrumental. Not only do they cut and style for you but they teach you how best to tend to your particular curl type. I highly recommend visiting them!
Knowledgeable about my hair type. The consultant talked through the treatment in order to help me to manage my hair myself when I'm at home.
As a girl who is just learning to embrace her curls, Curl Ambassadors were very helpful and professional in giving me tips on how to care and style my hair. Quyana was my stylist. She was very professional and very easy to talk to. I look forward to seeing them again for my next cut.
I’m very disappointed in this visit to Curl Ambassadors in Vaughn. I had appointments for both myself as well as my daughter. Booked over a month ago, for the the same time and date, which happened to be my birthday. They had a stylist call in the night before and instead of calling or email to let me know and confirm rescheduling my appointment, they took it upon themselves. So after driving 2.5 hours from My house, which is no where near Vaughn, which they have on file btw. Only my daughter was able to get her hair done. Because they didn’t have the courtesy to call me and let me know. Not only did they pretty much ruin my birthday, but they also made me waste my time and money to drive all the way out there! They also did absolutely nothing to try and rectify the situation. Not even an apology.
The person who helped us very knowleable
I normally come here when I need my hair cut or trimmed, so I'm never disappointed. The staff - and my stylist- are great! They know what they're doing, they're friendly and I'm not in here longer than 90 minutes* (my hair is on the short side, so it doesn't take as much time). Would gladly recommend to fellow curly-haired people!
I loved my haircut and their customer service. Olivia cut my hair and the haircut is very versatile. Thanks Olivia!
I’ve been coming to The Curl Hair Ambassadors for years now and Sheradan always leaves me really happy with my results for both haircuts and colour. Thanks Sheradan ????
Where has this place been all my life?! I went for my first cut last week with Inna and OH MY GOD!!! My hair has been transformed from frizzy, dull, and flat into beautiful, voluptuous curls. I have gotten so many compliments since I had my hair cut and and coloured. The entire experience was awesome. Inna explained every detail to me and educated me on proper washing and styling techniques. Amazing! Can't wait for my next appointment!
I've gone to Curl Ambassadors twice now. The washing, drying and styling techniques they use are great however the ladies there either just do not listen to what you tell them you want or they lack the skills or experience to understand what your asking for amd give it to you. On my most recent visit I asked specifically for 1)The same general shape 2)No length to be taken away 3) The bulk to be taken away from the bottom so my hair would be less triangular and more oval 4) Some shorter pieces around the face to frame it. I did not get even 1 of the 4 things I asked for. The closest she got was to change my hair shape from a triangle to an inverted triangle which I hate. The worst part is the devastating amount of length she cut off. Any curly girls know how long it takes to grow your hair for length and I had been growing my hair for a year before my cut. I asked her very specifically TWICE to not cut any length off but she did anyways. I definitely won't be returning to the Vaughan location ever again.
I always have a great experience at this salon. I feel safe in the hands of stylists that have similar hair texture and curls because they understand the apprehensions, concerns and fears all curly hair folks have. I got a wonder baylage colour, and a shaping haircut. The end result was bouncy and popping curls. Plus, you will receive a "curly map" which outlines the products used and how to apply them to achieve the same effect. If your hair needs help, this is the place to go!
Always a great experience. If you are not satisfied with your results they are happy to hear and fix your concerns. They have helped me get my bounce back and I love my curls again.
I took y daughter with 3C8, hair to get a cut and believe you me they don’t know how to cut curly hair. Even worse with COVID, you pay full price for a bad cut. My daughter looks like a clown and now I have to wait 9 months for it to grow????
Absolutely loved it.
I spent my whole life looking for hairdressers who knew how to take care of my curls without indicating straightening and who knew that our cuts do need to be differentiated. Since I started to treat and cut my hair with them I can see a wonderful difference and it make me very happy with my hair. I really like my hairdresser, the environment and I strongly indicate her work.
Had my first appointment here and first salon apt in a decade. I’ve always been super nervous, as they always want to chop my hair off. Nicole was wonderful, very informative and answered all my questions. They also were very accommodating when my schedule changed last minute. I left with a wonderful healthy style, I’ll be going back in the summer for a cut!
Inna was incredible! She owns her craft AMD is very knowledge about hair and curly hair especially. She is now my hairstylist going forward
Love that they only cut curly hair! For years I struggled with stylists who were not experts with curls! All stylists here are knowledgeable and recommend product for your curl type, style and lifestyle. Also great that they use all of the products they sell so that you can “try before you buy”
I had my first appointment with Curly ambassadors a few days ago. My stylist Shanica was wonderful. She took time to ask questions and got a really great sense of how I wanted my hair styled and what I was trying to achieve with my hair goals. It turned out better than I expected and my overall experience was great. Definitely going back and highly recommend Curl Ambassadors.
Roxana is absolutely amazing! She knows exactly what I want with my hair and executes it every time. I’m so happy I found this location and Roxana my salon/hair stylist!!
Fabulous and helpful staff, charming interior, and an overall 5 star experience for sure! These people are experts in their field, so expect the final service cost(s) to reflect that.
BLEACHED MY SHIRT NO COMPENSATION BEWARE!!!! On Tuesday, I was at the Curl Ambassador getting highlights done by Nicole. While Nicole was washing my hair she told me to sit up with no towel and that’s when I felt the back of my shirt wet. The bleach in my hair soaked my shirt! After I was done at the salon, I went home and saw that the back of my shirt was bleached and ruined. Within minutes I called the salon but no one answered. I went back to the salon to show what the stylist had done and asked if they could compensate for the bleached shirt but the owners were very rude and refused. The salon offered a discount for my next hair appointment but how does that fix my bleached shirt? The next day I got an email from the owner ( In the pic below) stating that “it is best and better to part ways from all locations”. I’m utterly shocked by how I was treated at the salon, will definitely not go back!
This was my first time going to a curly salon and I was very pleased with my experience. However, this place is NOT cheap so think twice before you go, especially if you are a student. I had 1 inch cut off my hair and got more defined layers and ended up paying 120$ (with tax) !!! I really do not feel like the amount of work that went into my hair deserves that price and I know, it's a small business and all, but that is a lot of money for a simple haircut. They also apparently charge 1$ per minute spent detangling, which I'm not sure if that was the case with me since it wasn't written anywhere on my bill nor did the lady at the counter tell me when I was paying. Great place, great people, but I will not be coming back.
Had to wait a month as usual to be seen here, (it's a small location, limited chairs) but it was worth the wait. Especially since Sidney ended up being my stylist. She amazing, she listened to my every word and followed my directions, and guided me to good decisions with her expertise when I couldn't make up my mind. Very intuitive and best of all a perfectionist in her work, both qualities which are so in make her great in her chosen vocation. The woman’s does not quit until your 100% happy with you hair and she can tell when you’re just being nice. The Ambassadors have a gem with her and good on them for being the type of business that encourages colourist like her. She got a gift!
Best curly haircut I've ever had. Where has this place been hiding all my curly life??!? Real curl experts. Deva curl certified. Gave me a dry cut then adjusted after a wash. I still love my hair after 3 weeks already!
Great experience!! Roxanna gave me a great cut and tips for my curls!! She was very nice and professional!! I appreciated all the Covid-19 protocols they have in place!
I've visited the Curl ambassador in two different occasions for a curly doo and then for a dry cut. My stylist taught me how to properly take care of my curls and which products I should avoid. Everyone at the salon was super nice and welcoming. Will be going back soon enough.
Loved my haircut! I believe Jennifer cut my hair and she taught me so much on how to take care of curly hair. Since then, I have applied her recommendations and my curls are doing so much better. I would recommend this place for not just the hair cut but also for the amazing information on how to take care of your curls.
Always get a great curly cut from Roxana! I did a dusting this time which had me in and out super fast which I appreciate since I have a compromised immune system ????.
Awesome place for curly gals
Mimi is absolutely amazing and made my hair super soft and just how I wanted it. She gave me great advice too on treatments for moisturizing my hair during the coming winter months. Great experience, definitely would recommend to anyone who has curly hair.
This place is amazing my haircut was beautiful plus my stylist gave me really good tips on how to apply products and which to use. Love this place, I don’t think I’ll ever go anywhere else
My daughter absolutely loves the cut Ariana gave her as well as the product she recommended for her hair. Great job and thank you very much! We will for sure be returning. We appreciated your time and talent in dealing with her hair. Best cut of her existence thus far.
Best haircut I’ve ever had. My curly girls out there who are looking for a good place, This is it. AMAZING job! My hair still looks great the next day too!! 100% recommend. Money well spent. Thanks Leah!!
I cut the dreads that I have been growing for 20 years. Ariana helped me match the style of short hair that I showed to her in pictures. I love my hair. I'm so happy with the new cut.
I had a great experience at this salon! Right from the get-go, Millie put me at ease by going through a comprehensive consultation. She is super friendly, and very generous with her passing on her product knowledge and styling skills. Every step of the way, she thoroughly explained what she was doing and why. I went in thinking my hair had become wavy from years of using the wrong products and overdoing ponytails, but she actually brought my tight ringlets back! Yes, it’s a bit more expensive than your average trim, but in my opinion, the results and advice made the price well worth it.
I absolutely love the service. Everyone who works there is so great, friendly, and they really make you feel at home. Also during the pandemic, they also have the proper measures in place to make you feel comfortable and safe. I have ZERO complaints!! I’d love to give a shoutout to my curly hair dresser Sheradan. She is honestly so awesome and has really made me love my curls even more than I ever have before! Love y’all!!
Finally after reading a lot of reviews, asking people around and contemplating like forever, I chose The Curl Ambassadors to get first really short hair cut appointment. What can i say, from the friendliness of the staff, to the ambiance to a fantastic haircut it was all a wonderful experience. I was particularly concerned about the way my hair would be cut since i was getting them short and I am really happy with the hair cut I received. Nicole was assigned to me and I found her is extremely warm, comforting and patient. She took a lot of time in carefully cutting my hair, making sure its not left uneven and spending a good amount of time on diffusing my curls. I love brands when they go out of their way and follow up. I received a follow up email to check on my curls and if I had any questions. That is for me excellent customer service. This is going to be my go to place for a curly hair haircut!
This is my hair place of choice. I literally drive over 6 hours one way to go here. I've never had a bad cut. But the last time I was here I had a bad color:( it was so bad. I emailed but heard nothing back. Since I am not local I couldn't make the drive again in such a short time frame I ended up going somewhere else just to have the color fixed. It hurt that they email to ask how everything was but didn't respond to my issues. :/
My 10 year old wanted to get her hair cut - from long curls to a very short style. We called to book an appointment and the lady was very friendly on the phone. We got Olivia as our stylist and she was amazing! She took the time to ask questions before starting. She was great at explaining the process and she was patient at answering my kid's questions too! She gave us lot's of tips during the entire visit. My kid left with an amazing new doo that she loves! I recommend Olivia 100%!
Great haircut, and excellent product recommendations for my specific mixed hair hair type. Stylist was a bit quiet / withdrawn but the hair cut was perfect - and that's all that matters.
The Curl Ambassadors are truly curly hair specialists! It was such a relief when one opened in Brampton and I quickly became a loyal client. I always return to my stylist, Toni, as she always has a great vision for my hair when I’m looking for something new! She is always generous with her time and her advice. She mixes up great colours and I know my hair is always protected with the quality products they use.
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at this salon. My stylist, Jennifer, talked me through the entre process. I've been natural for a while so I'm not new to it but I got some really good tips on how to maintain my style. It didn't take long and was very reasonably priced. My hair feels great, she did a great job. ????????????????
I don't recommend this salon at all there always overbooked and you have to make appointments months in advanced. Not good for service. Glad I found a place in Etobicoke that is attentive with appointments.
My post-quarantine hair was a mess. Julie breathed life back into my curls! They look visibly healthier, and have held up for days since my appointment. The salon is taking social distancing seriously; everyone wears a mask, there were very few people in the salon, spaced well apart. Felt safe and comfortable. My experience with this salon has overall been great - I don't have trouble booking appointments, they get back to me in reasonable time, the staff are polite and pleasant, and Julie is the bomb dot com! My first appointment in this salon (with a different stylist) was a horror show, but the salon rectified the situation swiftly, Julie fixed the cut (and it got rave reviews wherever I went!), and I haven't had a problem since (which is to say, even if it doesn't go as well as hoped - and we're all particular about our hair! - at the end of the day it's a good experience!). Great customer service, great hairdressers. Already booked my next appointment!
So i won a giveaway for a Curly Cut, and I was very satisfied with my results. My hair dresser was MiMi and she was fantastic! she was very knowledgeable about curly hair and my specific curl type as well. She has a lottt of experience and she answered all of my questions thoroughly and clearly. Mimi showed me exactly how i can wash my hair and style it for effective results and to maintain my hairs health. She was genuinely nice and helpful, I even booked my next appointment with her. She trimmed my split ends a curl at a time, she never rushed and made sure that every thing was even. The lady with purple hair seemed kind of unhappy lol just thought I would add
Curl Ambassadors was recommended to me by a curly-haired friend after years of me changing stylists and looking for someone who really knew how to cut curly hair. I cannot rave enough about Curl Ambassadors. Not only do they absolutely understand and follow what I have in mind for my cuts, but they also walk you through how to style your hair and what products might improve the condition of your hair. They are truly the best and I will never cut my hair anywhere else!
I went to the curl ambassadors for the first time yesterday and saw Roxana. Right off the bat, she was welcoming and it was clear that she was very knowledgeable. I paid with a groupon and was worried that I would get worse service because of that, but that did not happen at all! Roxana took the time to explain exactly what she thought would look good for my hair and why she thought so. On every other haircut I have ever gotten, I have expressed my hatred of my hair short but the hairstylists have always still cut it short. Roxana took my preferences in mind when she decided on the style of my haircut. While she was washing and styling, she made sure to show me exactly what she was doing and how I could do it myself at home. I am happy to say that I have never loved a haircut more than the one Roxana did for me. Instead of my usual hatred of my hair for months following a haircut, I am absolutely thrilled with my day two curls (I've never been able to get away with day two hair before this cut). Suffice it to say, I will be back to see Roxana! I also saw a few people mention in their reviews that the receptionists were standoffish and rude. I don't know if they interacted with different receptionists, but the two that were there when I went yesterday were very nice and welcoming!
A little pricey, but I think it worth it. As a girl who is just learning to embrace her curls and did not know how to take care them properly, the Curl Ambassadors at the Vaughan Location were very helpful and professional in giving me tips on how to care and style my hair. The stylist completely transformed my hair, and brought out my curly locks. Already booked my next appointment! :D
I have been going to Curl Ambassadors for a few years now and always marvel at how amazing my curls look after each visit. My stylist Ariana is always very knowledgeable and ensures I achieve the colour and cut I desire while maintaining the integrity of my hair. I would highly recommend this salon for any curly.
I will never be going to another salon again - Curl Ambassadors are the best! For years I have gone to countless salons asking them to help me with my curly hair only for them to blow it out and straighten it. I was so frustrated and disappointed until I went to the Curl Ambassadors! The staff was super friendly and answered all the questions I had about taking care of curly hair. I was recommended curly hair specific products and shown how to diffuse hair properly. Thank you Curl Ambassadors! I will be recommending you to all my curly haired friends :)
Had my first dry cut curly service today at The Curl Ambassadors and I am so happy with how my hair turned out! Shanica has such attention to detail and did such a beautiful job with cutting and styling my hair. It feels so much lighter and healthier!! I will be going back for sure :) If you have curly hair you need to go here!
Got a hair cut from Suzzy 2 weeks ago, and it is perfect! She taught me little tricks on how to work with curls and made my daily routine a lot easier. Haircut looks great both ways, straight and curly. I also appreciated the fact that she didn't try to push me into buying their products.
I’ve only been there 3 times and 2 of the times have been great. My hair has looked the best it has ever been but I just had a bad experience once where my haircut didn’t turn out as good as the other times. But overall really good! (Super expensive though)
They do a great job but it takes a lot of time out of your day. Also it is expensive for girls with long hair.
It exceeded my expectations in terms of styling and service. Amazing curl definition and cute cut/ shape. It was a great visit and I felt totally safe.
Excellent service, expert curly cuts hands down!
Shawnita made sureeee i was 100% happy before I left. Love curl ambassadors. They know what they are doing and are genuine as loong as you know exactly what you want! Thanks Shawnita!!! :)
Shanlea taught me how to work with my curls. Imagine I just learned and I am over 40! I have gone to all types of salons from expensive to low-end in search of someone who can work with my curls and wasn't all talk. I typically go home and have to wash and fix my hair but not this time. My curls look the best they have ever looked! The product she suggested also worked! Better than the Aveda Curl Products that's for sure. "Curl Ambassadors" Thank You! See you in September!
I love how much Mia cares about curls. She understood my curl pattern and my needs very well. I am 100% happy with my hair cut & colour.
Went for my first cut and was paired with Inna. She walked me through every step and every product and took into consideration my experience, preferences, and history. Left feeling happy with my curls and with great styling advice. It’s pricey but was worth it especially if you’re looking for advice!
Wow! I’m so impressed with the wonderful women running Curly Ambassador. Professional, polished, on point. The world is on fire with COVID but they have a rational, super cautious, but still pampering approach to making clients feel safe. This was my first haircut in almost 9 months due to covid. My hair situation wasn’t pretty. I was lucky enough to get Mimi as my stylist. She took my mess and made my hair pretty again. Great business. I will be back and looking for Mimi to sort my locks out!
Awesome consultation. Inna was very professional and knowledgeable. Coming back for a cut soon!
I saw Nicole for my first appointment and she is the absolute best. She asked great questions about how I currently care for my curls and gave me some great advice for what to do in the future. The cut itself was fantastic, days later I have people commenting on how great it looks. I left with my hair looking and feeling loved and nourished. I highly recommend Nicole.
I got my hair colored here for the first time back in April of 2019. And my experience was amazing, Roxanne colored my hair and it came out perfect ! This time I wanted to re color my hair a different color. I came twice to this location and I was basically told they couldn’t serve me because firstly due to the fact that I booked it online and incorrectly chose the correct option I needed. Which was understandable. I rebooked the appointment for the week following. Mind you I live in Scarborough and it takes me quite a long time to get this location. When I came they told me that they mistakenly booked me for the wrong day. At this point it was just frustrating and I am no longer coming to this establishment. They did not express any sympathy for my situation. I work 12 hour shifts and that was my only day off. I’m very disappointed and will never come here again.
For a long time I’ve been looking for a hair salon that actually understands how to manage curly hair and this is it! Everything from their techniques to the products they use is made for curly hair. This is the only place I am willing to drive an hour and a half to just for my hair! 10/10 would recommend.
Won't lie to you, I won't be going again. They did not cut my hair well at all and the colouring they did was not good and not to salon standards. They say they cut curly hair to frame your face, however they do not know how to cut properly and my hair now is EXTREMELY uneven on one side of my face versus the other. Also this was the first time I had ever gotten my hair coloured, the stylist didn't believe me up until she dyed it in which my hair follicles at the top of my head (weaker roots from other damage like flat iron) collected colour way better than my bottom, so I ended up having light brown at the top of my head and the rest completely dark. Truly a bunch of amateurs, go somewhere else and save your money.
I've been going to Curl Ambassadors for 3 years now and they've always delivered the best, friendliest service. Shanlea is a genius.
Best place for curls in the city! Curl Ambassadors is a total gem of a salon. Highly knowledgeable Stylists and friendly front of house staff that treat you like family the minute you walk in the door. Mimi is an absolute magician with recovering curl pattern after years of platinum blonde damage. Curl Ambassador stylists are not only curl architects, the are teachers, equipping you with the tools and techniques to live your best curly life. ????
Finally a place that actually understands how to cut curly hair!! The staff is super friendly (Shoutout to Leah!!) and know what their doing with any curl type! Game changer.
For the record, I will not be stepping foot into the Curl Ambassador Vaughan location again! I have never experienced such careless efforts as customer. Especially from such a reputable company, that specializes in providing a service, to anyone with curly hair, and already having very limited options to where they can have their hair cared for by a professional. As a guy, it is almost unlikely I would be walking into a salon. But I have been referred time, and time again to go to CA.I have family who have been returning customers to the TORONTO location for years. After finally making it in, just to walk out completely ripped off, and totally unsatisfied. I had inquired about making an appointment, instead the was offered the chance to have a hair stylist take care of me on the spot. The salon wasn't busy at all just one other customer, and if there were appointments, then I shouldn't have been offered. I was looking for a clean up, and possibly a little shape. The stylist seemed like she knew what she was doing, she walked like top dung. She probably cut max 20 strands of hair around both ears and neck combined, followed by a chincey rinse in the sink, a lathering with leave in, and then tried baking me dry. I already can't stand more than a limited amount of product on my hair. After bathing me in leave in, I was ready to shave my head! All amazingly summed up with charging me full price for less than eighth of the service at $46. My wallet had a better rinse than my hair.
Awesome people
Good customer service, the place was neat, and the stylist was understanding and nice :) Cost was on the higher end financially .
I After my recent colour and style at Curl Ambassadors I am very dissatisfied. My curls are ok but the product that was strongly recommended to me was horrible..makes my hair stiff and dry. I usually use a different product from the Salon but was told this one was better so I took the recommendation. I am now out of pocket $60. When i called to express my concern , I felt dismissed and was told no refunds and was given no other suggestions to help other than noting my file. I am a long time customer and am very disappointed. I will not be returning after years of coming to you.
I had an awesome experience. Inna took great care of me and took her time to make everything perfect! I love my curls!
Went there for the first time last week for a wash and style. I love my curly hair but have struggled for years with finding the right product and how to style it. Caroline was awesome!!!! Spent the first 15 minutes just chatting about product/colour/ and how I personally feel about my hair. I left the salon with a gorgeous set of curls and instructions on how to manage my curly hair. I’ve been able to recreate the look (not perfect but close) and I now know how to use the product correctly. I’m excited to head back for my cut and colour! If you have curly hair....this is definitely the place for you. They know what they’re doing there and it feels so good to know you’re in good hands. There were even 2 men having their hair done while I was there. I hate to “breakup” with my current stylist but I think it’s time. ????
Just went here for the first time today. I had not done for a haircut for 4 years since my late curly haircut horror story that I'm sure many are aware of lol. Suzanne was my stylist she was amazing cut enough off to make my curls look helathy and still keeping my length!! Will definitely be back and I really recommend adding 5 dollars for the clarity shampooing gets all the buildup and old product out of ur hair !
I had a great experience at the Curl Ambassadors (Vaughan location). They were on time, all wearing masks, took my temperature and I was in the chair in less than 3 minutes. Roxana walked me through my hair consultation and was able to bring back my curls!!
So happy with my hair after going to their Vaughn location. Roxane, my stylist, was very helpful and gave me many suggestions on what to do at home. Definitely telling my friends and family about this place! The only thing was the price of the cut and style but it was worth it in the end :)
Just went
It makes such a difference to have a curly hair specialist like Angela at Curl Ambassadors on Harbord. The stylists help you figure out how to get the most from your curls, from cut to product to technique. I never enjoyed my natural curls until I found this place. Highly recommended!
I came to this place because they had the best reviews and they did not disappoint! I've recently transitioned from my straight rebond hair to embracing my natural curls and my stylist, Sheridan (Sheri) was helpful as ever. I got the Curly Doo and Sheri's approach was inviting and enthusiastic. She walked me through the whole process and did not hesitate to answer any of my questions. I did not feel intimidated, rather accepted and welcomed. I learned a lot about my curls which is what I wanted and I came out feeling confident as ever. I'm returning in the Fall to get the dry-cut curly. I can't wait!
I have been getting my hair cut here for years! All the stylists are so knowledgeable and explain to you all the steps to replicate your look at home. I love my cut every time!
I have been going to Curl ambassador for a over 2 years now. The stylist always makes sure to not cut too much of my hair and gives me a great hair cut. Finding a curly hair stylist is always really hard so I am grateful for Mimi, my hair has grown so long because of her. I will be getting my hair cut only from her for as long as I can.
Vaughan's Curl Ambassadors: this location is so great for beginners or advanced curlies. No judgement, grear service. Its an open space and clean. Roxanna gives a great cut, and super thoughtful on making me feel comfortable even with Covid restrictions. I love my hair after she cut it!
I had my first appointment since March and the girls at Curl Ambassadors made me feel very comfortable and safe during my visit. I'll admit I was nervous, but they made me forget all about it. My curls are great and I'm loving the new cut. Thank you Shanlea and Wendy for making my experience amazing.
I went to get my hair cut and styled here before March and loved it. After having to wait and be patient, I went again this month and they were just as amazing. I got the same attention and felt safe with the measures they had in place to keep everyone and themselves safe. I will continue to go here to get my hair cut and my curls being their best!
Amazing and knowledgable staff. They helped me style my curls in a way I like and be proud of my curly nature. Couldn't ask for a better, sweeter, more supportive team!
Was so nervous before my cut but Shawnita did the dang thaaaaang. Thank you Curl Ambassadors! Thanks Shawnita! I'll be back. ????????
I took a leap of faith going in for a consultation and left with a BIG CHOP having no regrets!!! I’m now 2 months in and all the guidance, products and results have been tried, tested and true. The staff are all friendly and supportive. I love my new CURLFRIENDS and my fresh new healthy curls !!!
I left the salon without any frizz in my hair and very satistyed with the way my curls were done. The staff was great as well!
A perfect salon for curly hair. My curls felt like a million bucks afterwards. Only downside is that it is a tad pricey.
Carolina was amazing, she taught me so much about how to take care of my hair. Very happy. I'm excited that I've found a place I can trust to cut my hair :)
Ariana is super talented and in making your curls look beautiful. My daughter got her hair styled by her, and she is absolutely amazing!! Thank you so much to Ariana and also Curl to Ambassadors for making my daughter’s experience a pleasant and comfortable appointment. ????
I have heard so much from these salons that I had to try it! I have wavy fine hair and not only the dry cut gives you the perfect shape, but they also teach you the routine you have to follow, amount of product and technique in general! I loved it!
Really happy with my curly hair cut! I really appreciate that the stylist (Quyana) took the time to talk to me about my hair before cutting - we discussed what my concerns were and what I'd like to see. I also really appreciate that the cut is done dry - I think this makes all the difference for a good curly hair cut. At the previous salon I went to, the cut was always done wet; my hair would look great when straightened, but if I wore it curly, it just never sat right. They also have a really great policy where they follow up after the cut and will bring you back in for a quick fix if there's anything you're not happy with. Highly recommend!
Safe, clean salon and a very happy customer!!! Loving my curly cut!! First time getting a dry curly cut and I just love the results. Thank you Sheradan ????
I will never go to another salon again. The stylists are knowledgeable about curls and really assess and listen to my concerns and desires. Shanica at the Vaughan location worked as a team and was efficient and delivered great results. She kept my hair long as per request and made me feel comfortable enough to agree to long layers. I couldn’t be happier now. The techniques she taught me and products she used have made a difference as well. I have more volume and my dead ends are gone. I will never risk a regular salon again because curls are a whole other science lol.
Fantastic experience. I have looked everywhere for someone who can cut curly hair and now I've found a place. Went in with damage limp curls, left with bouncy curls - and she didn't even have to cut it all off!! Would recommend to all curly girls!!
After two haircuts from Julie I know I will be coming back for as long as I can <3 Yes it costs me about $100 for a cut and yes I need to book at least a month in advance. It is possible to get lucky and snag an earlier appointment if your schedule is flexible enough to pick up a last minute opening. It is all 100% worth it. I've been really happy with my cut every time and the staff is professional and friendly. During the first appointment they give you great written advice on how to care for and style your hair. The head massage I receive when she washes my hair is heavenly. It's a small place that really cares about their clients experience. :)
Ariana was Magnificent.So attentive and gracious towards my niece Noora.This was a gift to my niece but i think Ariana was the present for my niece because she got the hug from her....which is only for family and good kind people for Noora.Precious!!!
I had a great experience here today originally there was some miscommunication with scheduling my appointment and the confirmation of it. But they went to great lengths to accommodate me and make sure I could still have my appointment on the day I originally scheduled. Julie was my hair dresser and she was very knowledgeable about healthy curly hair and how to take good of care of it. I will definitely be coming back. I’ve never had an appointment where they use such sustainable products and care so much about the quality of your hair. 100 % recommend.
Shanlee gave me the best curly cut I've had in my life. I love the thorough service here, it makes me feel welcome and appreciated.
My first experience at the salon was amazing! I appreciated all of the COVID safety measures in place, and felt very comfortable during my visit. Angela was great, and I was able to comfortably ask tons of questions and learn more about my hair and new techniques. My hair feels very happy and healthy, and I'll be back for my next cut!
Unique salon offering services for those with curly hair and curly styles only. Clean and organized with free WiFi. They gave me a consultation and sent me home with instructions on how to maintain my curly look and what products they recommend. Roxana was really nice and knowledgeable about curly hair care
I'm east asian and have always had curly wavy hair that looked flat and dry. Curl Ambassador, esp Caroline, was so helpful in teaching me skills to make my best curl with lots of bounce and shine! Before and after pic included!
The stylists are very professional and Mimi is the best. She understood exactly what I looking for and did an amazing job. I absolutely love my new look! The precautionary measures taken by the salon in COVID times are very good too.
This salon is a must for curly haired folks! They know their stuff, and will teach you how to easily take care of your curls and keep them healthy. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and all the staff are caring and attentive to your curly haired needs. Julie is an AMAZING stylist, who listens to her clients, gives honest advice, and genuinely wants everyone to leave feeling happy and fabulous about their hair. Can’t speak well enough about this salon. I’ll be coming back for years, I know.
Had a great experience at The Curl Ambassadors Vaughan. The staff was welcoming, and Roxana and I had great conversations about what I was looking to get out of my cut, curl maintenance, etc. I wish curly haircuts weren't so much more expensive than regular cuts. But I am happy with my experience and I'll go back. Especially because they have a less expensive option of dry dusting in between cuts.
Amazing! I've been going to the Curls Ambassadors for 6 years now, and I always have a great experience. The salon is clean and welcoming, the staff is professional and talented and my hair cuts are always a huge success. Love it!!
So I have wavy thick hair but it is NOT the type of hair you would apply a mixed chicks product to. My experience was terrible. I expected my hair to be cut once it was dry and set. No. She cut my hair while it was wet. At the end of the appointment my hair looked terrible. I told her I wanted more layers in my Hair so she picked up a pair of scissors ans just started randomly chopping a few pieces of my hair. She cut like 4 locks of hair and was like there, Is that good enough?. I knew it was time to get out. I told her I didn't like the mixed chicks product and she said she can't predict how my hair would react to it. Understandable BUT I would expect someone who knows curl types that my hair would never look good with that stuff. It is so greasy. As soon as I left the parking lot my hair just fell flat no waves no curls. It was a grease ball. It was so bad that when I got to work someone made a joke that I didn't wash my hair today. I put my hair in a bun and couldn't wait to go home and wash it. What a terrible experience. I actually still tipped because I guess she tried and I felt bad. I've never reviewed anything but I had such a terrible experience.
Made me feel like a superstar
My hair needed serious care due to being in lockdown for so long and Ariana definitely did that for me. I like the fact that Ariana understands her clients’ taste and preferences and makes that happen. Also, she answers all questions with patience and teaches you how to style your hair.
Went for the first time on Thursday and saw Francesca. She sat and asked my history, what I wanted, gave me suggestions and alternatives and truly listened to what I wanted. I've gotten tons of comments on both the trim, shape and colouring of my hair. I will be back and would highly recommend! My original review 6 months ago with Francesca was a 5 star I've since been back twice. The first in October they had only booked me in for a cut no colour, even though I come from 1.5 hrs away No way I didn't book both. Don't remember the girls name but she was rude and very rude Apparently Francesca doesn't work there anymore. I went again last month cause I believe in second chances. They won't get another from me. I don't know what this 3rd girl did but my hair has been steadily falling out en mass ever since. She put huge layers in, yuck, and now all my length is gone as it's fallen out!! If I could give 0 stars I would. Francesca still gets 5 but not the rest. Here's hoping I don't end up bald
The Curl Ambassadors have always done a remarkable job with my curls; my cut is nicely layered, and adds volume to my fine hair. What also sets them apart is how warm and friendly the stylists are. The last time I went in marked the first occasion that I got a hair cut during Covid, and I can assure you that their Covid safety precautions allayed any concerns I had. Also, the last two Curl Hair stylists I had, Angela and Julie, did an amazing job on my fine curls. Highly recommend this place!
Quyana was professional, knowledgable, and sensitive to my concerns as a new client. I am thrilled with the results, my curls have never looked better - I will be a client for life!
Very knowledgeable
Coming to the salon is like visiting a friend. Everyone is welcoming, professional and sincerely interested in making your stay wonderful. Angela my stylist, is consistently excellent and LISTENS which is a trait not all stylists have. I have been coming for years and I will continue to look forward to visiting this wonderful salon!
Fantastic haircut! My curls look better than ever.
My first time at Curl Ambassadors in Vaughan and i will be coming here from now on. Leah my stylist was AMAZING!? So knowledgeable and caring. I came in not liking my hair and left with a new attitude completely. This was the first time EVER that i was not told my hair was defective, difficult and just a mess. Highly recommended!
Love this place! I've been going to Quyana for years now and she has always taken care of me and my curls! I also appreciate the extra covid precautions they take here, I always feel really safe!
Absolute worst customer service & products. Had to escalate an issue up to the owner (Caroline) and she was horrible to deal with. They care only about profits and refused to accept any returns. They openly sell and recommend products that are dangerous and have serious side effects. So much so the product used (Deva Curl) has several lawsuits against them in the US. Curl Ambassador openly uses and recommends/sells these products to their clients. When conformed about the side effects, they attempt to deflect the facts or out right ignore them. (Google it for yourself - don't take my word for it)
Sheredan did a great job on my daughter's curly hair! Just find it a bit expensive, but defenetely worth it.
I've been coming to Shanlea at the Harbord location for about a year now. I trust her completely with my hair as she is confident, efficient and has been doing this work for many years. I love how my hair has transformed under her care. I also appreciate the care and safety precautions that the salon follows. I felt safe during my appointment because of their no-hairdrying policy as well as reduced clients in the salon. Thanks so much Curl Ambassadors for considering my safety during this time and helping my curls to pop again!
Had a fantastic appointment with Nicole. I cant remember the last time my hair looked this good
This is THE salon for you if you have curly hair! I've been coming here for 3 years and never once been disappointed. All the hair stylists are professional and very knowledgable about styling, cutting, and colouring curly hair. Feels so great to have a place you can fully trust. You will fall in love with this place!
This place uses products (Deva Curl) that have lawsuits filed against them that have been known to cause hair loss and other serious side effects. They are well aware of the products side effects but turn a blind eye because they obviously make a huge markup on re-selling the products. BEWARE - STAY AWAY.
I recently had a positive first client experience at the Salon in Vaughan. My stylist Quyana was knowledgeable, professional and courteous. I was very satisfied with my haircut.
Absolute worst place to get your hair done - avoid at all cost! Terrible customer service.
My son is so happy with his new style , you did really a great job.
I had an amaaazing experience at Curl Ambassadors in Vaughan. I have 4a curls and it is difficult to find someone who understands how to cut my hair. PAOLA did an INCREDIBLE job both cutting and styling my hair. My hair has never been so soft, bouncy and defined! The ambiance of the salon was very calm and welcoming, and my appointment started exactly on time. I felt very well taken care of and the salon did not have a rushed or chaotic atmosphere that many busy salons possess; it was a totally relaxed vibe. I love that the stylists include a complimentary consultation prior to the appointment, but more importantly I love that they actually listen. Paola understood my hair goals perfectly and even took the time for provide home care tips at the end of the treatment. Thank you for a great experience, I am looking forward to my next hair cut.
This salon is outstanding. I only trust Susy with my crazy mane of hair now. It's been 8 years I have been coming and every time it is better. Great team of ladies working here & know what to do, how to colour and cut. I always leave feeling fabulous.
I loved my experience! Very professional team that know exactly how to treat curls. Amazing color job. Totally recommend!
Even though they weren't able to help with my hair at this time, they were extremely helpful in helping me find a reputable place that could. Their knowledge and communication through email was excellent. I will recommend them to all my curly haired friends. When I decide to go naturally curly again, I know where to go.
Really happy with my haircut from Paola! She really listened to what I wanted. I would definitely recommend going to see her if you have curly hair :)
All I have to say is amazing! Amazing staff, amazing treatment, amazing cut! To be honest, I was very nervous going in as I always leave a salons looking like I had a mushroom on my head or a puffball! Not this time... Nicole did a fantastic job! I showed her a few pictures and she was very helpful and knowledgeable. I left the salon with amazing curls and a great cut and now I bring my daughters. My nephew and both my sisters now go to the Curl Ambassadors as well! Nicole, Shanica and reception are fantastic and I definitely recommend this location!
I showed a picture of the shape I wanted... and I thought she achieved it, when I got home and took a better look it wasn’t at all what I showed her. In fact, I now have to chop my hair off to restart. I had specific instructions as to what I did not want , and she gave me what I did not want ... I’m so angry
The best haircut after having so many different hairdressers over the period of 40 years! From the moment you walk into the salon! Shanica was Patient, explained each step, enthusiastic and so confident the end result surpassed my expectations! Worth every penny! Mira
Really loved my first experience there! Staff was very respectful of covid guidelines and I felt safe throughout my visit. Nichole gave me advises and actually took the time to educate me on how to make the best out of my curls! She took great care of me and I only received compliments about my haircut. I highly recommend!
I bought a groupon for $25 for a wash and style. Knowing curl ambassador is a little pricy but they are the only salon I find can to handle my daughters hair so I thought that's a great deal!!!! I've been communicated back and forth via email to book and appointment for my daughter and also stated when they called to confirm I again advised this is for a child's hair cut. Me stating numerous times about my daughters appointment when we got to her appointment which this was her 3rd visit there she got a stylist name Lea. During the detangling before her wash I asked if there were at additional charges as I am using my groupon. The stylist said no. She even stated that the appointment was book for an adult and that a child's hair cut is cheaper. The groupon stated wash and style and I knew I would be paying for a trim as that's all my daughter needed. After all the trim washing, conditioner , and styling when time came to pay....... my bill was almost $100!! And they tried to claim that was $25 off which was my groupon. Second they said there was a $1.00 charge per minute to DETANGLE!!! (No wonder she took 3 hours) to do everything on my 11 year olds hair. I refused to pay that nonsense amount because for 1 I never once heard of this and it was our 3rd time there, she never once mentioned this when I asked in the beginnings if there were any additional charges. Then she called a person name Betty on the phone and she tried to explain to me that the $1.00 is stated in the email, which was not and I have my emails I show not once was this ever mention even there website doesn't mention any of this. She then took off that charge but still I had to pay a child's hair cut, wash, and style fee of $31.99. So I said that's pretty much I paid $57 because I already bought my groupon Which is suppose to be for a WASH and STYLE so I should've only paid for a trim. All in all I am very disappointed in this experience especially for my 11 year old. This is such a scam why offer a groupon if your just gonna still charge customers the same rate even if you didn't buy a groupon. Also they are not understanding. DO NOT BUY ANY GROUPON or go there! You might as well just pay your friend to detangle your hair and save more money. SCAM SCAM. I never write any reviews but this was beyond ridiculous and time consuming for my 11 year old to sit there for 3 hours because they tried to get $1 per minute in detangling.
Carolina took care of me and my curls during my recent visit. Not only did she take the time to assess my hair to determine the best approach, she really listened to what I wanted (which was to keep my hair as long as possible but have healthier curls) and she came up with a great cut and style that I was very happy with. I went in that day thinking I would be chopping my hair short to achieve healthier curls, but Caroline assured me that it wouldn't be necessary and with her help I have noticed such a big difference already!! Thank you J
I love the cut I was given. Krystal gave me the perfect style!!!
I went for a curly Doo and did not expect anything special from my visit. I have recently started my curly hair journey and I already knew some things but I wanted to get a professional opinion on my curly routine. Stylist Inna, was very nice and helpful, she asked me about my hair routine and what products I usually use. She talked through every step and really took the time to make sure I understand what she does to my hair and why. It was a great experience and I would definitely recommend it to someone who is at the beginning of their curly hair journey or even to an experienced person. I left with a great overall impression of the salon and I am planning to come back for a haircut.
I was a client of Shawnitas at this location for almost 2 years, had been going consistently and loved my hair every time. I had even recommend 3 different friends to visit this salon, who all told me Shawnita was the best stylist they had ever had. Shawnita left the salon and I had an appointment booked for October. Someone from the salon contacted me in July and let me know that Shawnita had left and that they could not change my appointment to another stylist. They did not offer me other appointment times, they offered to put me on a cancellation list despite having 4 months to accommodate my appointment. I let them know that a cancellation list didn’t work for me, as I work full time and don’t have open availability. I never heard back from the salon, no attempts were made to keep me as a client. I will never go back here, as it is obvious that my great experiences here were solely because of Shawnita.
I had a horrible experience at another hair salon 3 days before I left for vacation and immediately came into Curl Ambassadors for an emergency appointment hoping that someone would be able to give me what I wanted. Arianna gave me exactly the cut I was hoping for and did it in 15 minutes!!
I booked an appointment with this salon and sadly did not even get any confirmation. I thought maybe I'll try going to the salon walk-in for a hair cut but the lady who greeted me said that the one who schedules appointment is on a holiday and will be back after 2 days. like really??? IF YOU DONT VALUE A CUSTOMER THEN WHAT IS THE RANT ABOUT? I mean lol even till now I never heard back from them on the appointment. I feel even if you are busy you should acknowledge a customer and their time. I would recommend everyone not to waste their time here as there are other good salons in the market who atleast value and respect a client!
Great service. I am really happy my hair cut. Shanika did an excellent job.
I had my first deva cut with Shemiann. She was awesome and explained everything as she was cutting my curly hair. She shared so many tips/tricks to help me achieve great curls. She also provided me with feedback and answered all of my questions. I felt like she wasn’t rushing and taking her time to cut my hair. I was so happy that I booked my next appointment with her immediately following my cut. I will be referring all my curly haired friends and co-workers to this place for sure. Thank you Shemiann, you are a very skilled curly hair expert. (Vaughan location).
LOVE this place, I booked an appointment for full head highlights and a cut and the stylist went above and beyond! my curls have never looked this good!
Friendly staff
I've been Curly Girl Method for almost 3 years now and highly recommend a dry-cut curly at Curl Ambassadors. I recently had my haircut with Millie at Curl Ambassadors Vaughan and she's fantastic! She knew exactly how to cut my wavy/curly hair so that it holds a great shape and my curls are fantastic! Highly recommend Curl Ambassadors and ask for Millie, she's the sweetest ever!
My first experience with the curl Ambassador Vaughan was with Paula, it was very successful hands down the best hair treatment, style and much needed education, I walked out loving my hair, then the pandemic happened, and now I was very excited to get my second appointment which left me in tears as I left the salon, my husband was picking me up and I did not want him to look at me. I went in with a picture and wanting a shaggy hair cut, I was refused saying my hair is not long enough, (I have medium length below shoulders), I suffer from frizzy hair and asked what to do to get plump curls with no frizz I was told well you cant have plump curls if you want shaggy and a sarcastic laugh, she started cutting my hair , she barely cut the tips with no certain style, with her own admittance she said laughingly I cannot see any hair on the floor its all on my had, tried very hard to sell me products as soon as I sat down on the chair which made me feel very awkward and uncomfortable then when washing my hair she said I put treatment as your hair is damaged" my gift to you don't worry "again followed by a laugh which again made me feel that I have to buy the product, I felt patronized the whole time I was there, So I stopped asking or saying anything and kept very quiet the rest of the time in the end my hair looked HORRIBLE flat stuck to my head and she said she was done while yelling to her colleague that the next person is her client , I have never ever written a review good or bad, and it took me a week to decide to write it, what hurts the most is when finished I told her that I am very disappointed and that I liked my hair better when I first came in than what she did, she did not even apologize or even offered to fix it she just walked me toward the cash for me to pay...…THE WORST EXPERIENCE AND THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE HER NAME IS INNA !!!!
My experience at Curl Ambassadors was amazing. I went in thinking my hair had lost its curl, as it usually is quite frizzy and the curl loses its shape right when it dries. I am obsessed with my hair cut and style by Mia. She brought life back to my hair and taught me how to properly wash/style my hair. Since my haircut, I have gotten a ton of compliments and have recommended Curl Ambassadors to every person I know who has kinky, curly or coily hair. Thank you so much Curl Ambassadors!
The ladies here are so caring and do such a good job of learning about your curls!
Curl Ambassadors knows everything there is to know about cutting, colouring and styling curly hair, and Angela is a genius on all three fronts. She's also really fun to hang out with if you have to spend a few hours in the chair. Book. Now.
I visited the salon to get a cut and color. I found the cut wasn't really worth the $50 - she just made a few quick cuts and that part was over. The colouring was alright - I asked for partial highlights and it kind of came out like she dyed almost my entire head. I think what got me was the experience. My stylist was so friendly and amazing, giving me a lot of tips on how to style my hair. I haven't decided whether or not I'll be back, but if you're looking for a more drastic cut I do recommend.
I have never truly had a good hair cut until I came here! They are EXPERTS at dealing with curly hair! I have long thick curly hair and they know how to cut it and have the best products available! If you have curly hair, going here is a life-changing experience!!
I have being going to the Curl Ambassadors for 5 years now. This salon provides the best customer service experience of all the customer service experiences I have ever had! They treat your hair like gold. You really feel pampered. Prices are reasonable and all the stylists are top notch. The salon itself is very clean and funky
Whilst travelling in Canada I was recommended this place by 2 different people. I made an appointment and was so impressed with their response and care. The day before they changed my appointment as the hairdresser had a family emergency. When this happened, they went above and beyond to squeeze me in. My cut was with Caroline. She took the time to listen to me and offered great advice. She took me through the process step by step explaining everything as she went and answering my questions. I was a little shocked when I saw how short it was ???? but after I got used to the length I was in love with my curls. The shape is just so so so much better. She told me it was all about a good cut so I could fall back in love with my curls and she was so right! Thanks so much Curl Ambassadors and Caroline! I only wish you had a salon in Hong Kong.
I was in desperate need of a cut, my hair was damaged, not many people know how to cut curly hair so I didnt know where to go. All my curly girlfriends told me to go to the curl ambassadors as I would not be disapointed. My experiance was amazing, it was a hair lession and a cut all at the same time. Quyana was awsome, she was so knowledgable and taught me how to take care of my hair. My hair looks so healthy and my curls are super bouncy and still kept my lengh...so for sure this is gonna be my new hair spot.
Quyana at the Vaughan location did an amazing job at giving me a haircut that was layered and shaped perfectly! Highly recommend for curly hair!!
I don’t usually leave reviews, but Curl Ambassadors is the only place I’ll let touch my hair now. The stylists know exactly what they’re doing with curls, and are incredibly helpful and informative if you’re not sure how to manage your hair yourself. Angela is the best hair stylist ever in the world. If I was famous I would have her fly in to work my hair for events. If I was rich I would have her fly around and work with all my curly-haired friends too. I love my cut the day I get it, and then the next day and the next long after I’ve washed away her magic touch. Best. Ever.
Great experience, definitely coming back :) I love my haircut, it goes so well with my curls, and I am so happy with my colour! The style afterwards was great and it lasted way longer than my hair does when I do it A little pricey, but well worth it!
Sheradan took time to understand what I needed. I showed her pictures of styles I was trying to go for. With her expertise, she brought my curls back to life! I've had my hair cut with both a regular stylist & the Curl Ambassadors, it definitely makes a difference! Thank you!
Shanica was on time, gentle and knowledgeable about my hair type. I enjoyed my curly do and will be a regular. Thank You
This was my first time getting a haircut for my curly hair after straightening my hair for over 15 years. Quyana was very understanding and walked me through the process while explaining styling and care methods. She gave me a cut that frames my face well and brings out the best in my naturally curly hair. When I was checking out I received a paper going over everything we did, care and styling methods that were reccomended to me, as well as product suggestions etc. I found this very useful as this is an entirely new world for me. I felt very confident leaving the salon and wad encouraged to call back if I ever needed any help. I highly reccomend this place and especially Quyana who was compassionate, friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you so much for helping me take my first steps into loving my natural curls!
Roxanne at the Vaughan location did a great cut and partial highlights. I love it and have had lots of compliments since I got it done on September 9th 2030. I went from brown and grey to blonde. Quite the difference.
I loved the styling of my hair, it was really stunning. My appointment was at 315, I arrived at 3 and sat in the chair at 4! So that was really rude from managment in my opinion. I also have a couple of comments on the person that cut my hair though. She is a really nice person, don't get me wrong, but I felt that she was inexperienced at all. As I was telling her about the products and brushes I used on my hair, she didn't know them. I'm not even a stylist or know anything about hair that much and I know more than her. She was really rough while detangling it, I was hurt a lot, while she was diffusing my hair she burnt me like 5 times, when she put me under that hair drying thing, she put it waaay too close to my scalp and it was literally on my forehead, hence I got burnt. I asked for my hair not to be cut too short, and she really cut it short although I repeatedly said before it being cut, that I didn't want it that short. Other than the styling, I would not recommend her to anyone to be honest. I am actually afraid to come back to you guys after my experience with her. I heard raving reviews about this place, thats why I trusted you guys and that I'll be in good hands, apparently not . My experience was not a good one, 3/10 over all. I don't think I will be coming back.
Had a great hair cut by Sheridan! She was very professional and cut my curls perfectly. My hair was given proper shape to bring out the best in my curls. Thanks Sheridan.
I'd been here once in December, before COVID shut everything down. The hairstylist did a decent job, despite completely ignoring the length that I wanted. I've spent months trying to book an appointment. I finally thought I had one secured when I ended up having to deal with medical issues. They wanted a confirmation within 24 hours. I wasn't able to give one because of what was happening with my health. They unscheduled me for that time, which I get, I didn't confirm back in time. However, when I emailed them back they offered me an appointment 2 weeks later at a time that didn't work. I emailed them back letting them know that it didn't and what am I sent in return? Whomever is responding to me, deciding to let me know that 4:30 pm is after 2 pm and offering me the same time spot! The last thing I need with my health stresses right now, is to be treated like this when I'm just trying to get a hair cut. If you value being treated with any respect, I recommend going elsewhere.
I am SO HAPPY with my hair cut! I love the cut and how light and easy it is to style it. I also enjoyed all the learning that was provided with how to style and manage the curls. I feel the cut really compliments the natural curl to my hair and has allowed my hair to get even curlier! Thank you for the help!
I am SO happy with the results of my cut & colour. Nichole (Harbord location) did an AMAZING job with everything. She took her time to get to know my preferences and ensure I was comfortable at each step of the way. I was nervous to cut my wavy/curly, very thick, belly-button length hair but she gave me a fresh new cut and lightened my colour beautifully. I enjoyed her passion and hard work put into my hair, it turned out better than I ever could have expected. I really loved the products used to suit my hair type as well! THANK YOU Nichole, for a positive experience at The Curl Ambassadors. I will be back when my hair needs some love :)
I can not say enough good things about my experience at Curl Ambassadors! I have always struggled to find a hairstylist that understands curls and was excited to try this salon. I was so happy with my cut and style. On top of this, they do such a great job learning about your curl type and explaining the perfect steps and products to use. Inna was my stylist and she helped me so much, I can say I finally understand how to properly take care of my curls and they have never looked healthier!
Quyana did such an amazing job with my dry curly cut and styling. I started with uneven, frizzy long hair and she totally changed how my curls form. I didn't think i'd be able to keep it up after washing it myself, but even after washing and adding my own products (+the couple amazing ones she recommended) I really see the difference in my curl pattern!! Thanks so much. Will for sure keep coming back to see her. She definitely knows her stuff.
My daughter went in to get her second curly cut and absolutely loved her style! Paola at curl ambassador’s is amazing !! She was thorough , kind and very detail oriented. We felt safe and comfortable throughout the process and will 100% return.
- Poor customer service when booking an appointment ( even before covid-19) - Never get to request your hair stylist unless you know them before their “great” reviews - No one smiles and looks stressed out - Found them four years ago and my first time was amazing but my hair stylist keeps leaving, and the front desk service keeps getting worse even though they’ve been trying to expand, I guess the salon cannot keep up with demand. - I have given up on trying to buy into their service.
I cannot say enough good things about the Curl Ambassadors! I love love love my cut, learned so much about how to properly deal with and treat my hair, and I felt like sitting in that chair talking about the years of curly hair issues was like a mini therapy session. Highly recommend!
Amazing first experience love my new cut :)
This location specifically seems to have bad rep seeing from a couple of reviews, but that didn't stop me from booking an appointment. I was in desperate need for the maintenance of my wavy hair specifically. So I decided to check this place out and let me tell you... the results are phenomenal. I absolutely love my hair, completely satisfied. Once you enter the salon, it felt cozy and the staff that was there were polite, accommodating and kind. Booking the appointment was no hassle for me. The service was just great and made my money worth. I will be coming back again to this place to get my hair done. My hair stylist Shawnita was outstanding! She listened and took the time to understand what problems I have with my hair. She gave me great advice/tips on how to care for my hair. She's very knowledgeable of what she's doing. I had very long hair that was still pretty healthy near the ends, I came in to chop half my hair off and she continued to ask me if I still wanted to cut it short just incase I changed my mind to keep the length. She didn't cut it any shorter without asking for my consent until I was satisfied with the length she's given me. My hair has never looked healthy till now. Highly recommend a visit for all curly/wavy hair customers.
They give your curls the right look, and you leave feeling great! Ive always left with a million dollar smile! If I want my curls cut or styled, this is the only place I'll go. Best of they educate you with how to manage you hair and in a quick way. I don't have alot of time, so I need low maintenance and quick style for day to day! They help you with that for sure. Thanks for the amazing cut and style.
Very knowledgeable staff. So nice to walk into a salon where everyone who works there has curly hair. I just knew they would "get me and my hair"!
Stay away from Curl Ambassador‘s Vaughan they are not knowledgable they are very unprofessional my daughter went there today to have her roots highlighted for a touchup and they’ve completely ruined my daughters hair making her hair have yellow patches on it where they try to cover up afterwards to correct it with a brown died it does not even match my daughters hair the stylist that was highlighting my daughters hair asked the two managers for help they while they went back-and-forth whispering no one came over to help! But what they did do was make faces looking at the colour and walking away and whispering they were extremely unprofessional and have no clue on how to highlight hair especially the highlighted blonde they’ve ruined my daughters hair she has three tones of colour in her hair now with this brown red orangey tone all in her roots stay away from this hair salon before they ruin your hair too
I love Curl Ambassadors! The staff is really experienced with curly hair and provide such an exceptional experience. They are always prompt and punctual for appointment times and I always leave extremely satisfied with my frizz-free hair! Also, the salon is very clean, sanitary, and comfortable.
Had such a great experience and atmosphere is great! Got my hair trimmed by Shwanita and I couldn't be happier. Everyone noticed how healthier my hair looked :) Def recommend
My experience here was awesome! Quyana was very pleasant and knowledgeable. They really know their stuff here and I learn something new about my curls every time I go!! Thank you!!!
Hair stylists take the time to get an understanding for your hair specifically and cut your hair based on your texture, curl type, thickness and so much more. Curl Ambassadors' give their professional opinion on what style suits your face and other factors. The whole process is organized, tedious and amazing.
Sheridan was 10/10 amazing! Great cut, she recommended great products, and most of all she was incredibly thorough about what I wanted and how I could take care of my curls. If you’re a cgm girl looking for tips, this is a great place to go and get some advice on your routine! Can’t wait to recommend Sheridan to all my curly friends
This is my second visit to thecurlambassadors and I got a dry-cut curly technique done by the amazing Shanlea - she was so warm and friendly and considered everything that I was looking for on my cut. All of my concerns and questions were answered very patiently - thanks so much for being patient! Although I would have loved a diffused look I can understand the circumstances that for safety reasons it was avoided. However I did go home and was surprised and excited to see how the cut turned out just as I asked for! My curls were poppin and bounced back to life - so glad and satisfied with the whole experience! Definitely worth it :)
I got a little hand out teaching me how to take care of my hair. Olivia explained everything she was doing from start to finish. I didn't feel pressured to buy any products but did anyway because I wanted to. Thank you for showing me what I can do with my natural hair. I love you Olivia, in a platonic and appreciative way. I highly recommend going to get some taco bell after your experience at CA. I also highly recommend CA.
THIS IS AN UPDATE TO MY REVIEW: Because of my previous bad experience I was offered a complementary cut. Nathalie did my hair and she really took her time. She fixed the shape and I am in love again with my hair. Took me a while to give them another chance, but it was worth it... So it's only right that I provide an updated review. -------- I just came back from my appointment at Curl ambassadors. I just moved to Toronto and before booking the appointment, I heavily researched natural hair salons. I tried another salon and didn't like the service, so I decided to try the Curl Ambassadors, based on the great reviews. Let me tell you that this is the worst experience I have had. I spent 3 and a half hours there and left crying, because "Mimi" cut all my hair. At the beginning of the appointment, I told her that I was there to have some shape and moisture because I have some dryness and hate the current shape. I insisted on the fact that I WANTED TO KEEP MY LENGTH. She immediately started cutting, I stopped her and asked what is the shape she intend on doing and she couldn't explain it to me. She kept saying: "you'll see, I'll give you some layers and you will like it". So she proceeded to cut my hair (dry cut), wash, have a treatment and I went under the dryer for about 40 min. When I finished, I immediately told her that I don't like the shape at all. The back is way longer than the front and I feel like she has cut too much. She told me that it's because my hair was still wet and she will use the diffuser. After that, I still hated the shape and she told me that she "will blend it nicely". Had I know that blending meant cutting chunks of my hair, I would've let. $140 later, I have lost have of the length of my hair.
The cut I received was absolutely on point. My curls have never been so defined. If you have curls, this is the place to go!!
I always look forward to getting my hair cut and coloured by Angela! Even with the Covid measures that have had to be put in place, I was very comfortable visiting the salon for services. The Curl Ambassadors' Team has done a phenomenal job of keeping everyone safe!
Simply Beautiful with the Best, Professional, Caring Stylists.
Amazing job with my new and improved curls!! Excellent people who really know what your looking for and how to take care of your curls!!
Amazing hair salon! They specialize in curly hair exclusively. I wish I would have found them alot sooner. The ladies are all awesome but I believe my stylist was Francesca. I have recommended people and they have also had a great experience as well. They really listen to what you want. Bring pictures! Even if you feel the style you would like is unattainable, still show her and she can show you what you need to do to get somewhere close to that. For your initial consultation she tells you what your curl pattern is and shows you what products to use for your type. She never pressured me to buy their products. I came back for a cut and she cut exactly what I wanted off! I will definitely come here again!
Never loved my curls like this before. Roxana has magic in her hands and takes time to explain me how to take care of it. My curls looks beautiful effortlessly everyday. Worth driving hour and half.
I feel like this location has really gone down hill as of late. I booked an appointment (in June) for my daughter to get a wash and style for her graduation. We arrived for the appointment on time and waited..and waited..and waited. The stylist doing her hair showed up 1 hour late. Luckily, another gal working took pitty on my daughter and offered to squeeze her in. The stylist didn’t even acknowledge me or my daughter. Not an apology for being late..NOTHING. I was pissed, but it was my daughters graduation day and wanted her to enjoy herself on her big day. Tried going back this weekend as a second chance. Showed up for an appointment only to be told it was cancelled and i must not have received the email. Nobody was available to cut her hair and I’d have to rebook. I shall never return to this location. Too bad—we had a good run. But no more, I’ll have to find somewhere else.
Great experience - I have 3B curls that needed a good dye job and I walked out of the salon with curls that never looked better AND a lot of new knowledge on how to manage my curls at home. The entire experience was excellent, affordable and informative. Thanks Shanica!
Great experience! I had a dry cut, moisture treatment and curly do. My curls never looked so good! I loved how Sheradon listened to my hair story and learnt about my hair. She took me through each hair care steps. Very professional, in time and they made sure to follow all necessary covid protocols.
The stylist, Irvine, is so perfect person!! I am really so happy with my appointment and she does know what she is doing! I will definitely be back for her! The 4 star is because of their receptionist is UNfriendly, has an attitude and doesn’t smile to the customers! You better treat customers who gives their hard earned money in a friendly way
Got an amazing cut and highlight from Sheradan. She took the time to review my desired aesthetic, offered me samples to choose from based on my vision and took the time to give me a great colour and cut. All the staff I interacted are professional and knowledgeable. So happy to have a curly hair specialist to trust with my locks. Will be going back regularly!
I got a dry-cut with color...I had an amazing experience with Inna who was very detailed, professional and Friendly. It was my first time at the salon...after asking about my hair, She walked me through the processes my hair will go through. I love the color I got ???? I recommend the Curl Ambassadors ????
Early september I came with my 4 year old daughter for her first haircut, she is mixed and has very curly coily hair. This was thee worst haircut I’ve seen. On the day of, it looked okay, even nice, but the next day, and the days following, you could see how she cut it very uneven, my daughter has one side shorter then the other and random long pieces. I can’t even have her hair out as normal or in a cute fro because it looks that bad. I have to always have it wet and soaked in product to have it all leveled. I would not recommend this place, or perhaps go with a stylist of ethnic background. This just proves to me, get a black girl to cut black girl hair.
They were on time for the appointment as well as so clean and friendly. I absolutely love my curly cut and their hair mask put life back in to my curls. Thanks again!
Had 2 awesome experiences both with Shanica. She did my hair amazing so I brought my daughter in and made her so happy, made sure she was okay during the appointment and always let the clients know exactly what she's doing as she does it. Can't wait to come back! Ask for Shanica if you are thinking of coming here you won't regret it.
It was my first haircut at The Curl Ambassadors Curly Hair Salon and my hairdresser Inna was amazing!! My curls have never been so healthy and defined as they are now!
I had an amazing experience with my Curly hair. Made an appointment on line followed the steps according to their site in preparation for my Dry Cut Curly. My stylist was SHANICA a friendly informative person. Brief consultation determined my Curl type I was close to what she determined. Walked me through her steps for my new refreshed look!!!!! Love Love Love my CURLS!! Awesome my curls look so refreshed can’t believe I OWN THEM due to her! See you in November for my next appointment
My hairdresser was knowledable in all things curly hair but be warned , there is a heftly "detangling" fee that apparenrly outlined in the email of almost 40$! Im sorry, i didnt think i had to read the fine print when booking a hair cut for my 7 year old. I felt pretty ripped off and will likely never go back.
I had an amazing experience at The Curl Ambassadors Vaughn location. I went in a little unsure but left absolute in love with my highlights and cut. My stylist Sheradan was extra informative and through. I have booked another appointment with her and will continue to do so.

I haven't left completely happy from a hair salon in years! I'm very happy with the way Nicole cut my hair and styled my hair. She's friendly and explained all the steps to the process the salon uses. I had a groupon that was more then worth it. I will return.
First visit to this location and Millie was my stylist. She was great! She was running behind and I'm betting she didn't have a break all day, but she was all smiles! I left with a great new haircut, and have finally found someone I can trust. My curls are looking amazing these days! I'll be back to see Millie for sure!
I have been a faithful Curl Ambassadors patron for at least 5 years now and would highly recommend anyone with curly locks to make an appointment. Their hair stylists are very skilled and you will not regret your visit. I toiled for years with my tight curls but I have been liberated since going to Curl Ambassadors. I am very happy to have found them.
My second time at Curl Ambassadors for a dry dusting hair trim. It’s a great salon for curly hair girls, Ariana is well versed in curly hair and I learned something new each visit, which helps me achieve my perfect curls. I felt very safe with the protocols they have in place.
