I needed a last minute appointment for hair extensions as I just got an awful haircut somewhere else that I needed fixing. They booked me in exactly when I needed it, they have the hair extensions in the store, they have so much supply and are very professional and knowledgeable. The man (possibly the owner) who did my hair was so good at it, so fast, and he did NOT have a lot to work with.
Single process colour is one colour all over, covering the entire head, or touching up just the root regrowth. There are three levels of single process colour: semi-permanent, demi-permanent, and permanent, each vary in strength and in how long they last. If you want to go several shades lighter or darker than your natural hair colour, all over colour is the way to go.

After less than 3 hours my terrible haircut was fully invisible and I had long, beautiful, perfectly blended extensions. I’d never had extensions before so I shopped around before choosing this salon, they

Tried to make an appointment for my grandson the answer was they don't have one. She didn't mention if not now or next year maybe!
There are lots of salons in Oakville I would recommend them.
One star is already too much.

Hi Renato, as you know our family have been loyal clients to your business for as long as you have had a salon in Oakville, unfortunately a recent bad experience with a booking mix up with Diane and little regard by your staff to own up and correct the issue has likely lost your salon a entire long term loyal family of clients. Welcome to share the details if you are interested

Hi Renato, our family has been going to Fortellis for as long as you have been in business in Oakville, your staff has prepared one of daughters bridal parties. Needless to say we have been very loyal. Recently my wife Diane was contacted by your staff (post shutdown) and an appmt was booked with Melissa for July 7th @11am and it was confirmed. On June 30th one of your staff called to confirm an appmt on July 1st @ noon. She asked why her appmt had changed and was told she never had an appmt on July 7th, which I can also confirm she did as I was there when it was booked. We were away for the long

Ordered hair products for curbside pick up and the process was very easy and organized. A travel size hair butter was also added to my order free of charge which was extremely generous and very much appreciated. I will definitely continue to order products from here in the future. Great experience!

I got a haircut from Daniela and it was so good that I had to write a review. I have very thick hair and she gave me soft flowing layers. What an excellent job!! Thank you!

My hair and colour looked great! Maggie is amazing, it felt good to get a cut and colour after many months. The salon was clean and you felt comfortable in there with your coat covered in plastic and the staff always cleaning.

I walked into Fortellis 13 years ago and was introduced to Melissa, she is a fabulous, professional, talented stylist! Renaldo, the owner, and his team, have created a wonderful hair/spa studio that is inviting and always offering up to date products and services, exceptional!!

After years of searching for a studio with skilled staff and high quality hair products, Fortelli hits the mark. I’ve been a client for the past 5 years and have *never* had a bad experience. I have long, very dark hair with layers of color on it, but when I decided to go lighter, Melissa took me down without compromising the integrity of my hair and achieved the exact look I was going for. The time is taken to really listen and consult before each appointment. I visit every 6 weeks, not because I need to, but because it is truly a great, relaxing experience and they keep my hair looking fresh

I've been a loyal client for years now (I'm a 50 year old woman and have tried many salons before settling here). I trust Melissa and always love my cuts and colours! She is sweet and talented, I don't know what I'd do without her! The salon itself is very nice and I also recommend their pedicures and eyebrow services!

Took my daughters to get their hair done before my engagement photos and we all had a phenomenal time! Service was exceptional & the end result made for a day to remember. They even styled my sons hair to keep him feeling special while the girls were finishing up.

The staff seem friendly and the atmosphere is nice and welcoming. However they have no idea what they are doing including the owner. They told me they would be able to accomplish colour that I was hoping to have for my wedding. Because I was looking to have silver highlights I gave them 8 months to make sure I could get it where I wanted to. All they kept doing was adding toners to my hair. They ended up charging me well over &1500 over the course of 8 months and I had to use a box to dye my hair before the wedding because it was so bad. I went through every colour of the rainbow while they "tried

Booked a shellac pedicure for my cousin and I. Booking a place that says "spa" sounded like this place should be quite nice! Staff that did our feet never smiled, was annoyed they had to remove my previous shellac, The one lady who was doing the pedicure had a neck injury so asked my cousin to lift her feet up ( hmmm that was comfortable!) The lady that did my feet didn't know how to remove shellac!! Place where they have the chairs is quiet, no music playing,no spa like feeling at all! And a 75 minute Shellac pedicure as advertised was tops 50 minutes for us on

Maryanne is absolutely amazing. She is amazing with blondes. Took my hair from damaged, yellow, brassy blonde to bright platinum, healthy blonde. It's a great experience every time I go to Fortelli. The staff are always friendly and go over and above for their clients. I'll never go anywhere else!

Finding a stylist you can trust is sometimes tough! Someone that doesn't cut more than you want cut or push you into drastic new colours for the sake of change but does give a gentle nudge into current styles...that's what I found in Melissa! I've been seeing Melissa for many years and am always pleased with the result! She's young, vibrant, friendly and always gives excellent service! The whole team at Fortelli offer great service with a smile every time!!

Thought I would treat my self to special hair cut. Was $90 for cut, which is pricey, but hen they charged an extra $35 to blow dry! This is just a strip mall salon - not a downtown name! The cut was ok but would never go back at those prices - not worth it.
