The salon

Our Toronto hair salon is located on Dundas West. You’ll find our team of expert hairstylists and colorists in a warm and welcoming setting with gender neutral pricing. From trendy haircuts (pixie, wolfcut, shag, kitty cut,…) to natural balayages and bold hair colors, they’ve got you covered.

The story for the Toronto branch starts in 2022, a year of big changes at ESHK. We found lovely partners in Brooklyn and shortly after opened our Toronto hair salon in the fabulous area of Little Portugal. Our focus is and always has been our clients and making sure our salons are a warm and welcoming place. As with each ESHK salon we started from scratch design wise. For this branch we opted for more earthy and warm tones. Some vintage pieces, custom timber furniture and our signature reclaimed door mirrors set the tone.

We love Toronto as a foodie heaven and you’ll find loads of great eateries and bars nearby us. You can start your day by picking up a delicious cup of coffee at 135 Ossington or I Deal Coffee & Wine and a mouthwatering croissant at Geste Croissanterie. On a sunny day you can relax in Trinity Bellwoods Park and also grab a fresh beer at Bellwoods Brewery. Bar Poet is a great place for eating some delicious pizza under twinkly lights and indoor trees. Be sure to pop by our friends at Soop Soop for some curated fashion items and magazines.

At ESHK we want the best for our clients, so we use the products we deem to be excellent and help maintain healthy hair. For colors and dyes we use the wonderful Wella Professional. Our Toronto hair salon director / co-founder George and the amazing team are there to take care of you and get you the hairstyle you’re after. From on-trend haircuts to the best balayage or vivid colors: pop in, relax and we’ll do the rest.

Colour info

For colour appointments in London & Berlin:

Please make sure you come in at least 48 hours before your appointment for a skin/patch test. If you are a regular customer of ours, please note a skin test done at ESHK is required at least every six months.

Sensitivity can change over time, due to some change in circumstances or a change in product formulation. With concerns around post-Covid skin sensitivity (even if you haven’t tested positive), we kindly ask all colour clients to have the skin test done. We just want to make sure you’ll be fine at the time of your appointment. You will be asked to sign a form with regards to this procedure when you come to have the test done. Without it we will unfortunately not be able to see you.

For all bleach customers please note we strongly advise you to not wash your hair 48 hours prior to your appointment. It is common to feel slight discomfort / irritation to the scalp up to 48 hours post appointment.

Our colour products are by Wella Professional (London, Berlin & Toronto), Schwarzkopf Professional (NY), Oway Organic (all salons) and Pulp Riot (London & Berlin). The Wella ColourTouch range used for semi-permanent colouring is ammonia free.

FAQ

What services do you offer at your Toronto hair salon?

We have a talented team of hairstylists, colorists and color technicians at our Toronto hair salon that can handle a variety of hair services. From short haircuts like pixies and buzz cuts to long layered haircuts or voluminous haircuts such as wolfcut or shag looks. When it comes to hair colors our team work on highlights, permanent or semi-permanent hair colours – muted to bright, balayage, ombre, gloss and existing colors that need a roots or regrowth touch up. We recommend booking a consultation to discuss everything with your stylist if you have any questions.

I see your prices are gender neutral, how does it work with haircuts?

We do indeed not differentiate our pricing by gender but more by hair length or time required to achieve a certain haircut result. To work on short hair like pixies or barber style cuts we offer our reduced ‘short back and sides’ rate. All still comes with the same love, care and attention from our stylists and lovely wash with fabulous hair care products. Where you’re going from long hair to short however, this falls under our ‘wash, cut & blowdry’ service. If in doubt, speak to our team to see which price applies for your specific requirements.

How much does a hair color cost at your Toronto hair salon?

You might have searched for ‘Hair color Toronto prices’ and found a few answers. At our hair salon prices range from $100 to $300+. The price depends on hair length, hair coverage, thickness and final shade required. For some results you’ll require a combination of services. For example: to get certain results your hair may need lightening, that requires a bleach service first before the permanent color is applied. We additionally recommend adding a bond builder to dye mix to help with color penetration and hair health throughout the process. Our team will be happy to provide a consultation and a price quote so you can have an idea of the cost to achieve your dream hair.

I’ve had a hair color done elsewhere which I’m unhappy with, can you help me fix it?

Absolutely! We are a Dundas West Hair Salon that does a lot of hair color work. We do often get clients that come to see us with this issue. It can be tricky to get certain results, however we believe it all comes down to the experience of the stylist / colorist. Everyone in our Toronto hairstylist team has years, sometimes decades, of that much needed knowledge. This is sharpened by continuously improving skills with various training throughout the year. Our team will also always be upfront and honest about what can be done or what they believe will look best on each client individually. Our goal is and always has been getting the best result.

What’s the best hair salon in Toronto?

That can be a bit of a loaded question. At ESHK Hair Toronto we’ve always strived to bring together fantastic hairstylists and hair colorists, all highly experienced and at the top of their game. Clients come to us for that knowledge, creativity but also for the atmosphere. We’re not about awards from random organizations but getting our clients their dream hair in a warm and welcoming setting.
