I visited Salon Gamme after struggling to find a hair colorist that I could trust. In this salon, they did not disappoint. Minh was really kind, professional and amazing to talk to throughout the whole session. He did a fantastic job on my hair, like look at that raccoon tail! I will most definitely come back here; it was exactly what I was looking for. :)

I absolutely loved my experience! I went twice to get my hair bleached, and both times were amazing. Minh is so attentive and really listens to what I want. Since I was very adamant and nervous about bleaching my virgin hair, he made the experience so much better by explaining the whole process clearly before and during the appointment. Always in love with the results, thank you Minh

I've been booking with Minh and he’s a sweetheart! He’s really attentive to what I want for my hair and knows what’s best for my hair. He explains very well, showing how much knowledge he has a hairdresser! Minh is amazing with vivid colours, and I fully recommend Minh for your colour project but also your blonde era!💛

I booked a haircut with Alexandra and showed reference photos, simply asking to keep my length and add layers. This was my first time with her and unfortunately the overall experience felt somewhat cold and it was a noticeable lack of attention to detail🙂‍↕️ Despite asking to keep my length, I lost about five inches of hair, and the final result looks boxy and much shorter than expected. I left not saying anything because the damage was already done but feeling disappointed, especially as a service provider myself due to the lack of professionalism. First photo is my hair now, second is my reference pic😞 Last picture was my hair before 😞😞😞

Giving 2 stars because the owner Malina seems like a genuinely good person and I was refunded for this mess... However, my hair is absolutely butchered after having Alexandra work on it. I entered the salon with 3 years of previous highlight work from a higher end salon in a different country. They would always foil my hair and gradually got me to a nice level of blonde. I really struggled to find a good salon since moving to Montreal and put A LOT of research (and trust) into google reviews. I finally settled on Gamme. At this point I had about 1 year of regrowth to give my hair some time from damaging it further from the bleach. When I entered the salon my hair was down to my lower back and when I left the salon it was barely past my shoulders and half the thickness. Instead of foiling my hair Alexandra decided to apply bleach all over my head completely... no technique, no foils.. just bleach all over like any of us could do at home. She went over all previously highlighted hair and just bleached away. The whole time she seemed more concerned with talking about gossip in her life rather than focusing on my hair. I thought she was friendly so I didn't mind chit chatting but when I realized she was not even paying attention or caring about my hair it started to annoy me. After 8 hours of bleaching/toning/drying my hair, the great reveal was a mess of yellow pee blonde roots to about 4 inches down for it to change to a harsh line dividing it into a copper orange color. A harsh line dividing a mix of 5 different colors which all are muddy and ugly. Of course she was smiling and pretending like it's just part of the process, I voiced that I didn't like the spots in my hair, her solution was to tone it a second time to the orange color to make it match, I said no I don't want that color and she told me she would tone it a blonde that's neutral and would make it match but she wanted to cut it first. After chopping off a bunch of hair as well as more than 6 inches of my hair was falling she tried to throw a towel over the hair on the floor to hide it and she was throwing the hair that was coming out from my head onto her brush to the side to hide that too. Then she tones it and kept suggesting that I should let her put curls in my hair even though I didn't want curls. She says she wanted to do it for her instagram story (but now I know it was to try to hide the mismatch colors). At the end I could visibly see it was and orange mess, I still paid out of pure shock but even my optimistic boyfriend couldn't cover his pure shock of why anyone in a salon would do that to someone's hair and let them walk out like that. When I got home I realized she even cut the hair uneven, she never parted it down the middle when she did cut it, it was more like her chopping and hacking away in a panic to hide her botched job. I honestly sit here wondering how this girl ever became a hairstylist. I would never suggest anyone to go to her if you go to this Salon. I feel bad leaving the review because Malina was so nice but I CANNOT let anyone go through this. At minimum it'll cost me thousands to fix but mostly it's cost me not being able to go out in public or feel good about myself, years of hair growth lost and probably will have to go back to dark hair that I can't dye blonde for years as well. Worst hair experience of my life. LAST TWO PHOTOS ARE BEFORE THE APPOINTMENT
