The Cabinet Salon

The Cabinet Salon has a useful way to price routine colour: a timed maintenance appointment that includes roots, a cut, washing and a blow-dry. We like the clear format and tip-free policy. Recent colour and follow-up complaints mean we would still get Lola’s quote first.

Our verdict: Choose The Cabinet for a clearly priced maintenance appointment near Queen and Portland if the consultation is convincing. We would get Lola's quote first and would not book a major colour change here on the strength of the overall rating alone. The exact dye range also needs confirming.

Prices and what the appointment includes

Two-hour routine-colour and cut session: $180–$260, plus HST and environmental fee. The two-hour maintenance service includes consultation, solid root colour, a maintenance cut, washing and a blow-dry. More involved work needs more time.

Prices are starting amounts in Canadian dollars before HST and any optional tip. These combinations are menu arithmetic, not a personal quote. Check the current service menu.

Use the entrance on Portland Street. Hourly pricing makes the appointment easier to compare only when the salon has allowed enough time. Do not book the smallest time slot for a major cut or a complex colour change.

Google reviews: useful praise and cautions

The Cabinet Google reviews include recent praise for Hailey's cut and gloss, Frederic's consultations and realistic colour planning with Stacey. Other clients like knowing the hourly rate and not having to calculate a tip.

The critical sample is recent enough to take seriously. Accounts marked two to three months old describe unwanted colour tone, disappointing grey coverage, and insufficient booked time. One client says the appointment felt rushed and the hair was left damp. Another describes difficulty arranging a toner follow-up. These are customer accounts; several owner replies apologize.

Some of those complaints concern balayage or highlights, which are more involved than ordinary root colour. They do not establish that a routine root service will go wrong. They do make the written colour plan, appointment length and adjustment window important questions.

These are customer reports from a sample checked September 26–29, 2026, not independently verified events or a count of every review. Read the branch’s Google listing.

Booking and colour questions

Ask whether the two-hour maintenance session fits your regrowth and cut. Get the hourly rate, total time and environmental fee before agreeing.

The exact current dye manufacturer and range were not verified in the checked public menu. Ask the salon to name both and explain the formula for your intended coverage. A shampoo, treatment or styling brand is not proof of the dye used.
