Essense Salon & Sanctuary is at 405 Wharncliffe Road South. Hair appointments share the space with head-spa, skin-care and nail services. Its owners, Nicole and Angela, describe how the salon grew from Custom Cuts into Essense, then expanded its beauty services in 2019.
Essense Salon: choose your designer
Prices vary by designer as well as hair length and density. A wash, designer cut and blowout starts at $73–$90 depending on who you book. Cut-only appointments start at $55–$74. Children’s and tween cuts start at $44–$52; ask which age band applies. Tax is extra.
New guests need a consultation before chemical services. Bring your current colour history and the finish you want so the salon can match the service and quote. Regrowth, full colour, foil work and balayage are separate appointments on the designer menu.
Head spa, skin care and nails
The Classic Head Spa starts at $150, while Luxury Sanctuary starts at $250. Check what each includes and how long it takes before choosing. Facials, gel manicures, pedicures, waxing and relaxation massage have their own prices. A relaxation massage should not be assumed to be an RMT appointment.
