I was sceptical. As a self-proclaimed hair dresser slut, I have not been able to stick to one stylist since I moved to Toronto back in 2001. All of this is about to change!
I tried being loyal to the last place I went to but sadly my appointment…More »

Of all the Mac locations in Toronto this once is by far my favourite!
1- They always have a healthy stock of EVERYTHING
2- It's a Pro store, so they carry speciality items, professional lines and of course my amazing Black Boot Liquid Eye Liner.
3-…More »

The decision to de-fuzz my hot-pocket was an easy one... actually going through with it is a different story! Since I am now a pro at having these done on a regular basis, I thought I'd share the experience with other curious but nervous wooly…More »

I've been a faithful Elmwood client since 2003 (before their amazing renovation). What keeps me coming back? Unlike many spas in the city these guys are a true day spa and the R&R begins the second you walk in from their beautiful reception area,…More »
When you are having an eyebrow emergency that rivals Ernie & Bert I turn to Yelp for a quick fix in my area. Kat recently raved about the Four Seasons Nails & Spa at Royal York and Bloor so I decided to hop on the subway and attempt a walk-in.

After the elections I was ready to tell the entire 905 area code to jump off a bridge... and yet here I was in the heart of Mississauga in need of some hair care.
Truth be told I have mixed hair... which essentially means it gets styled like white…More »

Now that I have your attention, I present to you my hair dilemma: I have curly hair which after 3 consecutive hot and humid days, starts to feel and look like cotton candy and is a pain to style.

After months of ignoring the obvious, I realized the remnants of red and multi layers of shit brown in my hair were no longer cute. I came to the conclusion that my hair needed to be dyed... one colour!

So the renovations are finally done and I have to say this place has done a total 360. There is a huge grocery area, cosmetic section and brightly lit aisles.
For some reason they are still missing some pretty crucial cosmetic brands such as…More »

I like when things just work out... like Friday afternoon I was downtown and thought to myself I need a haircut. Now the crappy thing about being a girl is that getting a trim (1/2 inch) costs the same as if I had asked for a salon to cut off 15…More »

It's 11 o'clock... do you know where your moisturizer is? No really... do you know where it is because I just ran out of mine!
Off to Shoppers I go to get some Vichy Normaderm. Sadly they don't have any either. I scanned through the face creams…More »

Today the touch was good... but not perfect.
I went in for a pedicure and although I think it was awesome it took FOREVER! I was there for 1.5 hours!
I was in a bit of a hurry and had only anticipated the pedi taking an hour.
Bottom line is it only cost…More »

I would be inclined to agree with my fellow soft racist Nicole C about this place, except it's recently gone under new management and should now re-name itself "Mediocre Nail Salon!"
It still in the same location and still has the same great prices…More »
I have been going to this salon for years and always love the service. It's an Aveda spa so the products the stylists use are great quality. In addition to a hair salon this location is also a spa and offer various services such as waxing manis and…More »

So aparently being open 24/7 365 days a year only applies to certain parts of this Shoppers Drug Mart!
I needed some shampoo and conditioner while visiting my parents and I was relying on Shoppers being open on Victoria day. The store was open but…More »

This is an older no frills store that carries not much in the way of cosmetics and hair products. I literally only suggest going here if you are looking for some painkillers (or in my case some cough medicine).
I hate their weekend hours...

Everyone knows that length and girth are desired by all women... for their eyelashes, and frankly I am no different. Oh how I long for full, long luscious lashes that make people stop in their tracks and say "DAMN THAT CHICK HAS SOME AWESOME EYES!"
