Review from Natalie J.

I followed Jenny Zinck here from Spirit, and absolutely love the new digs. Jenny is the best esthetician you will find, and will get you through your waxing service as quickly and efficiently as she can - no one wants that to last any longer than it has to.
Beautiful spot. Fantastic service. Reasonable prices. -

I will follow her.. follow her wherever sheeeeee may go!
Jenny Zinck has recently joined the flaunt team, leaving Spirit Spa behind. Jenny is a fantastic esthetician and I recently took my sister in for an intimate waxing service (will sis kill me for posting this online?)
Sis was nervous and hilarious and Jenny matched the humour and managed to calm her down. I stayed in the room to have a good chin-wag with Jenny and it ended up being a fun time for all (well 2 out of 3 aint bad!) I would send anybody her way and look forward to getting in for a service :) -
Review from Kim H.
Last month I realized I needed a haircut more then I have ever needed a haircut in my entire life. My hair had not been trimmed in several months, I had 6-month old half-grown out colour that had faded to the max, and I was *thisclose* to taking the razor to the whole thing ala. Britney.
I am particular about my hair and about it looking good so I don't like to trust it to just anyone. Seeing as my hairstylist I have had since BIRTH is in Cole Harbour, I now live in the North end of Halifax with no car, and she is extremely hard to get an appointment with anyway, I decided it was high time to find a place in my own hood.
I had noticed Flaunt salon open up a few months before (it opened mid-October 2010) because I walk by the old house it's located in every day after work (you can't miss that big, round window in the front!). It looked like a nice, fun place, plus, you can't beat a 5 minute walk from my apartment. So, I thought I would give it a try.
Well, seriously I think I had the best haircut of my LIFE that day. Now, I really really needed a haircut so to be honest, ANY change to my style would probably have made me completely over-the-moon, but it was more than that. I was randomly paired up with Laurel and she was lovely - very friendly with a sunny personality - so I felt in good hands right from the beginning. I brought a picture to give her an idea of the kind of look I wanted and she made it look exactly like that! She gave me a great asymmetrical bob style with tons of layers, but kept it long enough that I could still pull at least the front back - you know, she actually LISTENED to me (which doesn't always happen at salons, am I right, other high-maintainence hair people?).
The salon itself is small (I think only 5 chairs) and so it's quiet but also encourages conversation amongst patrons. There is an air of exclusivity to it - like you are at a place that requires you to make an appointment 6 months in advance and where you could easily shell out $200 for a cut.
Now, don't get me wrong, this place is a tad pricey - I was actually surprised when she told me the total at the end of my appointment and it came to $57 before tip (so almost $70 total - eeps). However, to me it was worth it because she did a great job with my cut. Also, I don't necessarily mind paying a bit more money for the convenience and experienced stylists. Unfortunately I can't speak for how much a colour or other treatments would cost but I imagine they are not cheap either.
One thing that I also found a tad odd was that they don't take credit cards (only debit, cash or cheque) so those of you on a budget and who like your plastic, be forewarned. Also keep in mind that they have more limited hours than other salons (the latest they are open is 8pm and that's only one or two nights a week I think...the other nights I believe it is 6pm) and they are limiting their hours even more over the summer, so book at least a week ahead.
One thing is for sure about this place - you will definitely walk out of here with something to Flaunt!
