Wow!
I came here because of a Groupon purchase -- I don't live in the city but I'll know to call ahead the next time I come to Calgary -- like Angela W., I have found a stylist I enjoy and who knows how to cut hair.
Mellisa M. knows how to take a hair history, knows how to explain how to style hair once you've gone home, and knows how to make a person's hairstyle compliment their face. Plus, she's fun and interesting.
Pure Form is easy to find, with paid parking at the door. It's design is simple and open and practical but also really beautiful. They use Bumble and Bumble products. Melissa explained why she chose the product she did to use on my hair and also why Finesse shampoo is not the best product on the market (I know, "duh", but I'm a cheapskate) -- but she didn't push me to purchase product! Little does she know (or maybe she does), the next time I'm here, I'll buy some product just b/c she didn't push this time. :)
I recommend Pure Form to any and to all. You won't regret it! :) -

After 4 years at another salon with another stylist who ended up moving out of the city, I had find somewhere new to go or I'd turn into Rapunzel.
I was recommended to give Pure Form, and specifically Andy, a try by my friend Angela W. After much procrastination I made an appointment. I was please to be able to get an excellent time slot for just a few days later.
Pure Form is downtown and easily accessible by transit or driving. There is a paid parking lot right next door although I imagine it is trickier to find parking during the day Mon-Friday.
I was greeted right away as I entered and they offered to take my coat, get me a drink (the usual salon stuff). What I noticed right away was the vibe-while everyone had that "salon" look, everyone seemed very down to earth-not pretentious at all. Nice.
Andy was great and just like Angela said in her review, he really listens. He had great suggestions for my hair and shared his philosophies on what good hair should be-thankfully they were in line with my thought on what "good hair" is. He was easy to talk to, funny and conversation flowed easily. This made my appointment seem much faster than it was.
It's not cheap at Pure Form but its in line with other downtown salons. I really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and how friendly everyone was. Oh and my hair is great too. I'll be back.
As a mini note the only thing I didn't like was the no tip option on the debit machine. Not a big deal but it always amazes me when salons and spas don't have this because it forces the customer to tell the receptionist how much you want to tip rather than privately entering it yourself. Not a biggy though -

I just visited this salon for the first time today. I was looking for a new stylist and I found one!
Andy is a genius with hair. I love how much time he spent with me talking about what I wanted and concerns I had. He really listens....which is such a beautiful thing in a stylist.
If you are looking for someone to help you manage your locks he is your man.
I am very pleased and just needed to let everyone know. Woot!
