Leanne is awesome! She's been my stylist for over ten years and has consistently provided great service. She's very knowledgeable and honest and answers any questions/concerns I have about my hair. The bonus is that Leanne is so friendly and cheerful! The owner of the salon is also very welcoming and courteous. Wouldn't go anywhere else!

I posted the same review as on yelp onto their Facebook page. The next day, they called me up to tell me that "they have been in business for over 20 years and they learnt that customers is always right therefore they apologize". Few days after, they called me again to ask me to remove my review on their facebook page. When I didn't do as they asked, they hid all reviews less than 5 stars...
5 stars for hiding any negative reviews and avoiding responsibilities?
Please see the photos in my profile pictures (two of them are what I wanted and what was shown to the master stylist and

Very happy with the environment of this salon, very welcoming staff and it was nice and quiet on the Sunday I went so I was able to relax. I called in the morning and was able to come in within a few hours, very flexible. It was the first time in many years that I finally decided to put my faith into an artist I didn't know well and I do not regret this decision one bit. The artist that I saw, Maureen was very patient and listened carefully to my requests, showing me exactly what she was going to cut off. My hair cut was very educational, she taught me a great many tips to improve the health

I went here after numerous experiences with horrible hair dressers. From chopping 10" off of my hair when I specifically said just the ends, and dying my hair black when I asked for dark blonde.... I was hesitant to let anyone touch my hair.
I believe the woman I saw was Mary and she was excellent. I had to get a correction done once, but she aced it the second time around. I LOVED my cut. She was cautious and would rather cut it longer and work up instead of taking too much off. I am sure I will be back eventually.
Someone advised me that the guy that works at the desk tends to nickel

Recently visited this salon and Gemma, the stylist was friendly, helpful and gave me a great hair cut that not only looked good when I left the salon but looked good the next day when I did my own hair in the morning!! It is a great location with plenty of parking out front in a cool neighbourhood in Port Moody. You can grab a coffee first or check out the shops after your cut. I would recommend and ask for Gemma - she was super outgoing and easy to chat with all while paying attention to the cut!

I went to Kast Hair on Saturday to get a wash/blow dry/curls. I was put with a master stylist, don't remember her name. Anyways, it was a rip off cost me $80 for curls that didn't even last the whole night. She was very slow took her about 1.5hrs to finish. I have short hair and it's not too thick. After she was done, my hair was so sticky and hard. As a master stylist you would think she would be fast and on point.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY AT KAST, worst experience ever.

I had a great experience. Made an appointment with ease, was promptly greeted and seated, was brought a glass of lemon water and a bowl of cookies and trail mix, and had an excellent hair cut. I didn't know who I would have as a stylist, but it turned out to be Carol, a master stylist, who was totally personable and sweet. She fixed my mess of a hair-do to my exact liking.
Very awesome.
I waited to post this review to see how my hair would be the next day after I washed it and styled it myself, as we all know we look amazing walking out of the salon, but when we do our hair ourselves, it

I absolutely hate to give negative reviews but this one is seriously justified. So yesterday I called around 1pm to see if there were any available appointments for that day. I was in desperate need of a confidence boost and felt a new "do" would be the trick to pep me up. The lady that answered the phone said that they could take me at 3:45. I asked if the stylist was good and she said , " yes he is very good". So I'm like cool it's a guy, she says he's great, this will be awesome. So I get there at my appointment time and there is one young woman working in

Decided to try this place after reading reviews on Yelp. They were able to squeeze me in right away which was a plus seeing as it is close to New Year's. My stylist's name was Carol and she was extremely friendly right from the start. I was offered coffee or tea at the beginning of my appointment then proceeded to get my hair washed after explaining how I wanted to get it cut. The hair washing experience was definitely not the best - the head massage was much too firm and I found myself tensing up more than relaxing during it.
The actual cut was pretty good. I had only wanted a small

Yelp's description of a 2 star rating is precisely how I feel about KAST. "A-OK."
It isn't the worst haircut I've ever had, but it's far from the best. I made the mistake of not showing the girl what I meant, and I may not have described it very clearly, but instead of getting layers like I wanted, I got quite a blunt straight cut. It wasn't really her fault, there was a miscommunication. I'm not good at expressing my dissatisfaction after a haircut, but I did mention that it was a little bit more flat than I had wanted.

I highly recommend this place to anyone out there looking to get a hair cut. My stylist was very good, and she was really helpful with suggesting trendy and different ways to cut my hair because i wanted to change things up a little. She really made sure she understood want i wanted and did it.
I highly recommend this place for guys, it was quick and painless. Everybody in the salon seemed really nice, and the atmosphere was good too.

I've been going here for years and I've always loved it! It's under new owners now who care deeply about customer service, they always go above and beyond to make sure you have a great experience.
I usually go to Mary but all the stylists are great. Plus check out the front for awesome deals on products, straighteners, they have a bunch of stuff!

My appointment with Kast was changed by them 3 times! So it took around 3.5 weeks before I could get my haircut! My haircut was average.Nothing special. I was charged an extra 10$ on top of the price that they advertise on their website.... I did not want to argue, I just decided that I would never go back...

After trying to do my own highlights and root touch up I landed up with hair that would make you want to be like an Ostrich and hide your head in a hole. I desperately phoned Kast and got an appointment with Michelle.
She worked her magic and made me look presentable again. Loved the color that she gave me and a great cut. Thanks Michelle you are a life saver.

I went to Kast a couple of weeks ago and had an appointment with Charlene.
I loved their vibe!. Charlene was amazing!, super professional, she asked me questions and made recommendations based on my type of hair.
I loved my haircut and I finally found a hair stylist that actually listened to me!. (I had experiences before where I would end up with really short hair after saying to just cut the ends).
She washed my hair and I got a really nice scalp massage.
She gave options of things I could do later on.
In a few words: Charlene is my new hair stylist from now on!.
They have an online system where
