Review from Laura P.

I have yet to settle on a regular Halifax venue to get my hair did, as I've had a steady stylist in NB for the last few years. However, as I get home less and less for visits, it seems appropriate to branch out into our city's hair services.
Foxy Moon is a small salon located on Agricola, and its charismatic title drew me in for further inspection. Its a quaint little space, but fresh and well maintained. My entrance alloted for a prompt greeting, and the esthetician was more than happy to explain the jist of the salon offerings.
With just 2 stylists and 1 esthetician, they seem to provide quality services at reasonable pricing. The esthetician introduced me to the stylists passing by-- everyone appeared friendly and professional. Cuts go for $35 and upwards, while coloring/ highlights average in at about $75(+), depending on your mane. Esthetic services run along the same lines; moderately priced services, and offering mainly the basics. (No massage or specialized facial services here.)
I'm unsure if I'll make Foxy Moon my next hair destination. The friendly approach and well priced services provided appeal, but there wasn't anything particularly "stand out" here. This spot doesn't exactly scream salon suavé, but its a neat spot with a quiet confidence. -

(Disclaimer: my visit here was not terribly recent)
It's a lovely spot in a great neighborhood and I hear she's very good. I, however, had my hair cut by a guy who worked there (can't recall his name) and he was, for lack of a better word, dickish.
His method of cutting and styling my hair consisted mostly of scolding me while talking extensively about himself. Extensively. Don't think I should use a straightener because you once burnt your head with one? Yes, that's relevant. And indeed I am terribly interested in your personal life , having just met you moment ago. Yes, this level of detail is appropriate...do go on.
At the time I was there, they had no way to add tips using their debit machine. Jolly good as there wasn't one forthcoming anyway.
How was the cut? It doesn't actually matter as there's no way I'd willingly sit through that again. But for the record, it was fine. -

I'm always genuinely interested in the places I venture into, but sometimes I feel a little bit like a fibber (albeit a kind and attentive one) when I venture into stores to learn about their services. On occasion I find myself saying that I may be in the market for something when in fact I'm simply hoping to learn about their business. Oh, the dilemmas of a community detective...
So, when I went into this hair shop today I found myself thinking - hey, maybe I do want foils or a buzz cut! I could get these things, right? "Of course" is the answer, so I ask the questions to find out costs and the like.
Redmond (if I remember his name correctly) greeted me and was very friendly. He showed me a price list with very reasonable numbers, as well as a list of esthetic services. For a hair cut it's $40 and under! Hooray - great prices turn my crank.
We talked about foils and that a half-head is usually recommended while a quarter head is simply for touch ups. As well, if you're looking for lash tinting or waxing - this place offers up the goods with comfortable price tags to match.
The space was bright and clean, and I could definitely picture myself in one of the chairs, chatting away while getting my mop-top resculpted. With friendly stylists and a modern space, this place seems like a fantastic decision if you're looking to update your look! -

I recently heard from a friend that she exclusively uses the homemade enviro friendly beauty and hair products from Foxy Moon! I have yet to try but gotta love that these products are locally made and environmentally friendly! Lets face it, 9 times out of 10 the amazing effects of that volumizing moose from Italy is all in your head!
