Review from Racheal M.
Vancouver, BC
2/11/2012
After undergoing several poor experiences in Vancouver (ahem... Bangtown), I made my way over to Victoria to give my old salon another go.
Unfortunately, my previous stylist (Robin) doesn't work on Saturdays, so I made an appointment with Theresa (Terry).
Theresa saved my hair life. After dying my hair dark two years ago, I'd spent the last five or six trips to the salon trying to back to blond safely. It hadn't gone well. My hair was not only dry and breaking, but the blond had gone brassy and my roots were growing out inconsistently.
I could see in Theresa's face that the situation wasn't good, but she really took to the time to figure my hair out - it's texture, fineness and colour history. She gently suggested a different colour from the one I was hoping for and then proceeded restore it to its former glory, without cutting off half the length.
I have since updated all of my social media pictures :) Thanks Theresa! I now have reason beyond my in-laws to go back to Victoria! -

This 'studio' manages to feel modern but still remain welcoming, and the service is friendly. My haircut was great, cost $35
+ tip, and I really have no complaints. The person that I saw was Kelsey Carvalho. -

I have been a client of Carreiro the Studio for umph-years now. I started out having the owner/director - John Carreiro, as my stylist (John is an absolute genius with scissors). Then, I had Jayson (who has since opened his own salon - another very talented stylist) then, David (great stylist who has been in the industry for years,) and now I see Lucy, who does my cuts and colour (she has colour intuition, a perfectionist, and a great personality too). I can't say enough good things about Lucy and the entire team of Carreiro. They are magic. From Jana and the ladies who are the salon's concierges (and models), to the stylists, apprentices and atmosphere... If you want to look like a movie star and be treated like one for a few blissful hours, book at Carreiro. They manage to have a great, professional attitude and a plethora of talent, sans the pretentiousness; With that said, you could take turns rotating your bookings between every stylist there and you won't experience an iota of attitude from the other. Lastly, to be fair: in the six or so years I have been a client, I have only had to go back for a slight color-tone-fix once. No matter where you go, once in a blue moon, something will not turn out as perfect as you'd anticipated. I beleive it's how a professional handles the "oops-ups" that counts and Carreiro stepped up and remedied the slight mishap, pronto. They also treat me and the rest of their clients like VIP's. I am 100% confident that team Carreiro will go above and beyond your expectations too.
