How We Chose
1. Two Horses
Location: 6300 Rue St-Hubert, Montréal, QC H2S 1M9, Canada
Contact: +1 438-383-1565
Operating hours:
- Tuesday to Saturday – 10:30 AM to 7:00 PM
- Sunday – 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM
Two Horses has been shaking things up since 2013. They’ve created an inclusive space that caters to every hair type, body, and even your furry friends.
What we really like about this salon is how it balances personalised, high-quality services like balayage, foliage, and corrective colour. Prices start at $58 for cuts and $145 for a Single-Process Colour. Aside from hair, they also offer facials for $155.
The team, with stylists like Caroline and Debz, brings warmth and skill to the table. They make anyone—whether a bit shy or a beauty enthusiast—feel comfortable. Their collaboration with local artisans also adds a lovely community vibe to the experience.
That said, we’d love to see them expand their services a bit further. Adding options like manicures, pedicures, or brow services could really turn them into a one-stop beauty destination.
Creates a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere
“I had such a great first experience at this salon! I saw Izzy, who was so approachable and attentive. I felt fully heard in my hair needs and Izzy delivered with so much care and patience! I also loved the atmosphere, the option for facials, and how non-pushy they are with the product even though I love their product lines! I am 100% all-in. Thank you Izzy!!”

Engages in thoughtful consultations to understand client needs
“My appointment with Kat at Two Horses was the best salon experience I’ve ever had! It started with a warm welcome and a hot tea, continued with a wonderful discussion with Kat about what I needed, and finished with the perfect haircut for my thick head of fine hair. The space and atmosphere is cosy, warm, welcoming and non-judgemental. I’m so happy to have found this salon and I highly recommend it!”

2. V & O Salon
Location: 4288 Notre-Dame St W, Montreal, Quebec H4C 1R6, Cana
Contact: +1 514-513-9692
Operating hours:
- Monday & Wednesday – 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM
- Tuesday to Friday – 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM
- Saturday to Sunday – 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
V & O Salon is a gem we stumbled upon in Montreal, and it’s hard not to love their fully organic and vegan approach to beauty.
They’ve swapped out the usual harsh chemicals for cruelty-free, non-toxic products in everything they offer – manicures, pedicures, facials, you name it.
When we popped in, the modern vibe and calming energy really made an impression on us. Plus, the staff were super attentive.
Starting at $65 for a mani and $75 for a pedi, they’ve made it easy to indulge without feeling guilty. We were especially drawn to their eco-friendly sugaring service for hair removal – way more gentle than waxing!
Booking online was quick, and the vouchers for future visits are a thoughtful touch. Honestly, whether you’re pampering yourself or grabbing a gift for a friend, you’re in for a treat here.
Delivers impeccable manicures and pedicures
“This salon is amazing in so many ways. All of the products are 100% vegan, organic, free of harsh chemicals and not tested on animals. The staff and owner are super-warm and ultra professional. I’m always so impressed with their work and my manicures and pedicures always look incredible! They really put in so much effort to accommodate your beauty needs. A very clean and calming environment, giving it more of a spa-like experience. I love going here and couldn’t ever go to any other salon. Highly recommend!”

3. Salon Amie
Location: 5775 Av. Victoria #110, Montréal, QC H3W 2R4, Canada
Contact: +1 514-341-5700
Operating hours:
- Monday to Friday – 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM
- Saturday – 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
- Sunday – 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM
Salon Amie really knows how to make you feel like they’ve thought of everything. When we popped in, it wasn’t just another appointment – it felt like a true consultation.
They really dig into your beauty routine to offer the perfect treatment. They offer laser hair removal (which works on all skin types, by the way), lash lifts, and even facials that range from gold to herbal. The variety means you’re bound to find something that hits the mark.
Their services start at $40, which is pretty solid considering the level of care you get. And we’ve gotta say, having the Laval location is a bonus for those of us juggling busy schedules.
The one thing we wish they’d improve? Online booking would be a game changer. It would make it even easier to lock in your next appointment without all the back-and-forth.
Offers polite and patient service from the staff
“Amazing experience with the Salon. The staff is really very polite and patience. Was very satisfied with the service. I am bit sceptical about going to a salon but I can highly recommend you to go there as I got exactly what and how I wanted. My eyebrows were done perfectly and super fast. Very happy and delighted. I will visit the salon often. Thank you.”

Completes high-quality work, even in limited time
“I arrived at the salon at 5:30 PM, and they managed to complete a full body waxing in just 45 minutes, even though they were closing at 6 PM. The staff was incredibly kind and took great care of me. Despite the limited time, the work was very well done. I felt genuinely welcomed, even with only 30 minutes left before closing. Highly recommend this place for their excellent service and professionalism! Thank you so much.”

4. Spa Tais – Beauty and Hair Salon
Location: 2110 St Laurent Blvd, Montreal, Quebec H2X 2T2, Canada
Contact: +1 514-938-4011
Operating hours:
- Monday to Friday – 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM
- Saturday to Sunday – 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Tucked away inside Hotel 10, Spa Tais offers a mix of luxury and eco-consciousness that really impressed us. We love that they use natural, vegan, and cruelty-free products across the board.
Their haircuts start at $60, but if you’re up for a treat, the $95 full package includes a mini scalp massage – perfect for some extra pampering. And the natural hair dye from Marcapar? It’s hypoallergenic, vegan, and a lifesaver for covering greys without chemicals.
They don’t stop at hair, though. Their Oxygeneo facials, priced at $180, are famous for giving skin that dewy, hydrated glow. Plus, their massages range from Ayurvedic scalp treatments to reflexology.
We also appreciated the promotions they run, like the Duo Couple Massage for $170 or $35 off the Oxygeneo Facial on Saturdays. These promotions are a great way for customers to save while indulging.
On top of this, booking online is super easy, so planning a visit is a breeze.
Leaves skin feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed
“I recently visited Helen Cosmetologist for a facial treatment with carbon peeling, and I have to say that I was very impressed with the experience. Helen was incredibly knowledgeable about the treatment and took the time to explain the entire process to me beforehand, which put me at ease. During the treatment, I could feel the carbon peeling working to exfoliate my skin, and Helen was very gentle and thorough throughout the entire process. She also used a range of high-quality products to cleanse, tone, and moisturise my skin, leaving it feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed. Overall, I would highly recommend Helen Cosmetologist for anyone looking for a professional and effective facial treatment. Her expertise and attention to detail are truly impressive, and I left feeling confident and rejuvenated. Thank you, Helen.”

Offers warm and welcoming service from the start
“Visiting Montreal and decided on a Duo Swedish Massage for myself and my wife to start our vacation. I had booked a 60 minute session for us, and we were welcomed warmly and invited into separate rooms. Svitlana and Elizabet were professional and our sessions were very relaxing. My wife advised that her session was amazing. The next time we’re in town, we’ll be looking to visit again!”

5. Poonam’s beauty salon

Contact: +1 438-483-4709
Operating hours:
- Tuesday to Saturday – 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM
Poonam’s Beauty Salon really offers something special. When we visited, we immediately noticed how Poonam’s warm and friendly demeanour made the whole experience feel personal.
Her expertise shines through in every service, whether you’re getting a quick $10 threading or indulging in one of her $70 facials. The atmosphere? Spotless and inviting, perfect for both first-timers and regulars alike.
What we love most is that her prices are refreshingly affordable – waxing starts at just $5, and brow tints go for $15.
Though they don’t have online booking (which would be super convenient), they make up for it with easy contact options through social media. You can quickly reach out via Instagram, Facebook, or WhatsApp with just one click.
Delivers consistently great experiences with each visit
“A great experience every time I visit.The waxing and eyebrows shaping of mine always done perfectly, and Poonam always incredibly punctual with her appointments. The service was efficient, professional, and exactly what I was looking for. The salon is clean and well-organise, which added to the overall professional feel.The attention to detail and customer care truly sets this salon apart.Highly recommend”
