I have been going here since they opened and I have never been disappointed, my hair always looks amazing. I was worried about coming back since Covid but they have it covered. Door is locked, temperature taken at the door, masks, lots of social distancing and even disposable capes. While I was waiting for my ride I watched them disinfect every surface and instrument at the station before letting the next customer in, and even saw them wiping down the shampoo bottles, sinks etc..at the back. And of course my hair has never looked better. Lots of thanks to the Del Monaco team.

Definitely one of my favourite places to cut & style my hair. Prices reasonable. Friendly/quality staff. Welcoming space. Great location, close to TTC and parking available near by. I had my hair cut and styled by few different staff and they have all been so great. I even got my hair styled for my wedding here! Highly recommend Eric and his team.

Today was my first haircut at DelMonaco. When I arrived, I felt good vibes, all the employees were happy and upbeat and talking to their customers.
Fabrizio immediately offered me a coffee. He was very attentive and patient with all of my questions. You can tell he loves what he does and pays great attention to everything he's doing to your hair. The haircut itself ended up being the best I've had in a very long time.
I'm sure the rest of the staff is equally as skilled, but Fabrizio gets 5 stars from me!

Good service. But they are just bad at cutting hair. I showed my stylist picture many times and confirmed with her if she knew what I was looking for. She asked me to trust her. But it turned out to be a nightmare! I could even do a better job following videos on youtube! It was just very easy bangs! Now i have to figure out how am I going to cover this for at least next 2 months!

If you would like to look and feel like a million dollar woman/ man this is a place to go. Pricy- yes. But you will receive so many compliments for your hair and look like never before. Little people know that Eric is one of very few hairdresser in Toronto who actually do hair for all Hollywood celebrities during TIFF and other high end events.

Visiting Toronto and had no idea where I was getting color and cut. Talked to a few salons, visited a couple and then checked out Eric. The shop is rally cool and bright and the location, for me, was great! My color is great and my hair cut is terrific altho a bit short. It'll grow, I know. He did a w'derful job and I've already book my follow up appointment!

Never, ever step into this place... To start, they didn't wash my hair before they cut it which was definitely a first.....Then the blond girl who works there, created an absolute tragedy with my hair. She was a rookie and I swear I was her first client ever..I am not even sure if she was a certified hairstylist cause she clearly didn't know how to hold/use any of the equipments.....she was holding the scissors and cutting my hair like she was holding a lawn mower cutting grass... Terrible vibes, terrible service and way too expensive.... Hair cut by a rookie for $45!!!! I now have to spend 45k

I love the place, more importantly Grant is amazing, I literally have to chase him down here when he moved from another place. He knows exactly how to get the right color and the right tone. Always patients and put in good effort, so very consistent performance, which I love and I can just depend on him making me look good every time! Another thing, I think he just have very good taste himself, would consider what would look good on you and he had very good judgement on that!
I little more about the place, very relaxed and no one would rush you. I personally enjoy where all staff are friendly

He has done hair for my mother when we were featured for a christmas mommy makeover on the Marilyn Denis show and my mother and I have been going to his salon ever since. It is quite expensive since Eric is an award winning hairstylist, but going about twice a year for a haircut, colour and style is more than enough. It is a very nice salon, very modern and stylish. It is all concrete inside so it can be a little chilly in the winter, so don't wear a tshirt. Eric and his team are very talented, and if you can afford going there you are definitely going to like what you're walking out

This salon is by far my favorite in TO. Probably my favorite anywhere. Service is AMAZING. The stylists are all TALENTED (the three I have had), and the atmosphere is awesome. I recently tried out a different but still reputable salon out of convenience (proximity) and they don't even come close. No comparison. Don't waste your time - just head straight to del Monaco!

Without any hesitation and with a lot of enthusiasm, I would highly recommend Eric Del Monaco as a hairstylist of choice. Eric's calming creative manner shows super results. You are treated like royalty when there. He is by far one of Toronto's finest and talented hair stylists and a wonderful person. The salon is pristine and the service is above and beyond

Best hair salon in Toronto, hands down. Eric gives the best cuts, and he also does my hair colour. He gave me the most natural looking blonde. After going to multiple hair salons to have my blonde hair colour corrected, nobody could ever get it right. When I discovered Eric and decided to give him a try, I can confidently say, I will never let anyone else do my blonde colour other than Eric. He is amazing! So are his associates too. Highly recommended!

I went here to get my hair colour corrected (from dark brown to blonde). I chose this salon because my hair is important to me and I wanted to go somewhere, where the stylist had extensive experience.
Everyone was super friendly and helpful there. The salon was beautiful. My stylist told me that they charge $100 an hour for colour correction, and that it would be about $300-$400 tops for my hair. This was the price I was expecting and went ahead with the colour correction process. My stylist had trouble removing the red from my hair, so going blonde that day was not an option. He ended up giving
