its pretty cheap tho, my cut was 34 and they did an excellent job
all the stylists their are japanese, so thats where i would go if you want a japanese style cut

hmm. i'm tempted to go to chura but the 2 week min waitlist is stupid.
any other places that hot japanese girls work at?

i hate ark cause their washing station, the neck bar is not padded at all, and it hurts like a bitch when you get your head washed.

but they do have good service.. parking is a bitch though

i go to 3G down at Central Square, between aberdeen and parker. Decent price $22 for cut + wash, $14 just for cut.

And... of course chinatown.. cant go wrong with 8 dollars

PS. do you guys pay tips for cuts nowadays? Seem soo white-wash/westerner

Holt Renfrew Salon and Spa

Are they able to speak english well enough to converse with them?

I usually go to Misako but if Ark is good im willing to try them out, plus they're cheaper :lol

my stylist didnt speak much english at all, i think its much easier to bring a picture of the haircut u like and just show it to them

however i am unable to style my hair like my stylist did after my cut

sum-up: zeal, chura, otic, misako, ark, bluehairdesign, 3G

only tried 3G so far, it was alright
going to have to try all those one by one.

theres many hair salons in richmond but not many people seem to be mentioning them..hmm. there are none worth mentioning for me because i always seem to be dissastisfied with my cut... lol.

^
same, i went to those lame hair salons on victoria, they all messed up my hair bad... i paid the same price i paid at 3G too... =(

I've gone to chura and misako, i was thinking of trying the one above konbinya on robson st. but i haven't gone there yet. Maybe i'll try out ark soon as i need a haircut pretty badly

Umm my stylist spoke sorta broken english but we could still communicate pretty clearly. Really depends who you get, a good percentage of the stylists at Ark speak decent english though imo.

Btw does chura throw in the massages? I never got one there unless you meant when they're washing/drying your hair. Ark actually throws in like a short massage for you.

Well it's okay because i can because i can speak broken japanese lol!

but chura never threw in a massage for me, i know misako does and a hot towel as well

Anyone know any more good places in Richmond but outside of Aberdeen?

There's an airhair salon on #3 and Saba road, I went to the dt location. They cut my hair very well but I don't want to venture all the way to richmond for a hair cut.

Is that sarcasm? Cause i seriously need a hair cut.. last time i got one was before all my finals...
man. diggy.. i can never tell if you're being serious or just trying to screw other ppl over.. lmaooo...

sorry to jack ur thread, but do any of these places do good shaving designs? I've never done it before but would like to try it and want to go to a place thats good at it.

Blue, on Kingsway is great, but theres a catch, they only speak korean...

does anyone have a place they know that is open late?
something open where i can get a cut at 7?

Any places in Surrey?

i go to a place on commercial dr and 3rd.. cabana salon or something like dat.. hes the best so far.. and cut and wash cost me like 20 bucks including tip.. somtimes i pay 25 or 30 depends on my mood..

i dropped my chura's W hastings location. it's closed.....damn!

isnt chura 28 or 32$ now

blue is good.
the place is huge
and they own a mercedes..big truck..boat..and i also saw a range rover..
what the hell do they do besides cut hair?
im sure they do other stuff..
the girl behind the counter, she's the only one who can speak english.
such a bitch. or just the way she talks/carries herself..

Sorry for being off topic, but...

Who can you recommend as a good hair-stylist at Chura at the Downtown location? I'm looking for a good haircutter lady / man who's willing to asain-fy my hair a bit.

goto local barbershop for 8 bucks like a man, son.
