Hair Services
Our Pro Hair and Barbering Student Stylists are busy teasing, mixing and snipping up fresh and marvellous looks in our Q&A Salon. Come join us at our downtown hair salon and see what our incredible Student Stylists can do for you and your ‘do. From professional cuts and colour to blowouts, updos and hair extensions, our students will take your locks to the next level.
All services are performed by students of our Pro Hairstyling and Pro Barbering programs under the close supervision of our qualified instructors. Thank you for being a part of our learning community!
ABOUT Q&A, OUR DOWNTOWN HAIR SALON
Q&A is much more than a salon. It is the jewel of our Hair School: a state-of-the-art, multi-million dollar learning laboratory where we provide cutting edge, real life training to our Hair students. Going far beyond the standard Hair School curriculum, our Program offers students the rare and precious opportunity to learn, practice, evolve and perfect in an actual salon environment.
