I wanted to give this place a try due to the positive reviews and affordable price point for women's haircut on the west side. I came in with cautious optimism as it is always a risk trying a new salon/stylist. Unfortunately, I have never been more disappointed and distraught over a haircut in my entire life. I asked for some thinning and a trim with long soft layers, something low maintenance and easy to style. For some reason the stylist took the liberty to give me the opposite of what I asked for- a thick blunt cut with heavy and choppy layers that did not blend well, and is difficult to manage/style. A thick blunt cut may work for someone with thin hair, but I have very thick Asian hair with a round-ish face and this could not be more unflattering. The stylist waited until the end of the haircut to explain what she had done. I don't know this person's experience or background, but this is simply unprofessional. Lesson learned - it is worth paying a bit more to get a quality haircut than to get a cheaper haircut from someone lacking experience, skill, expertise, and professionalism.

This is a clean, bright, quiet and comfortable salon! I had great service from Chika during my hair straightening appointment, where she provided me with snacks, tea, a nice hot towel after the wash, and a mini massage. I am very pleased with my results and I look forward to coming back! Thank you Chika :)

I’ve been coming to Hive for haircuts for about 4 years now, and it’s always been fantastic; the stylists are super nice and it’s affordable! Recently my go-to stylist has been Chika, she’s amazing!! She completely understands my vision and kills it every time. My haircut today exceeded my expectations!! I’ll be back for a trim soon 🩷

Im so sorry, I usually never leave a bad review but I’m felling very frustrated. I was referred to this place, I came from Metrotown because my sister really likes someone’s work in here. So I trusted and came. I booked my appointment online for highlights, I showed what I wanted boy oh boy, what I got is nothing compared. In my package it also included a haircut but when I asked if we can tone down the yellow and have a haircut, the answer was “sorry we close at 6” you can come back in 2 weeks. I decided to do my highlights because in 2 weeks is my wedding. I convinced the guy to meet me tomorrow but after giving a second thought. I’m not coming back again to pay a “full color treatment + haircut “ I know the language barrier is a factor but English is my second language one language too. Nos I have to go somewhere else and pay another $150+ to get my hair done. 2 pictures of what I wanted vs what I got

This was my third time coming to Hive and was very happy with my mens hair cut. Kazu was my stylist and he did a great job. Not a lot of chatting and he was very attentive, kind, and clearly cared about his work. He gave a relaxing head massage at the end and I got pretty much exactly what I asked for. Zero complaints. The space itself has a relaxing energy and I will keep coming back.
