Mei & Mei Beauty Centre

Good place for a quick and cheap haircut. Men's dry cut is $9, which is, from what I know, is a reasonable price. Only two hairdressers, SK when it gets busy, there are potential waiting times of ~20+ mins.

I've been going to this place for over 7 years. They have very reasonable prices for cut and brows for their quality of service. Women's hair cuts are cheaper here! Their wait times can be long up to an hour if you don't book an appointment. If you're not sure what haircut you want, they tend to rush the cut while other people are waiting, and the job done isn't super great. Since that initial experience, I have always shown them pictures of the hair style I want, and they have always been bang-on in following through. I don't recommend getting shellac or gel nails done here because their technique and quality does not give the result I would expect normally at other places. I usually spend a bit more money at other places to get my nails done.

My hair was past shoulders and I wanted to have it trimmed a little bit. And man, my hair looked exactly like how I used to chop it myself (she said I just need to blowdry and style it, but still, nothing could change or salvage it). Even when I tied it, it looks super chunky uneven in a zigzag-ish kind of way. I really wanted to like this place but I wouldn't recommend this for women (quick cuts for men/boys then yes!) - I came in for a really simple service and yet the result is just disappointing. If you want to have a decent haircut, go for the Japanese salon down on Edmonds and save yourself a huge amount of anguish and regret!

Very nice hair cut. And more services

I don't understand how these people are able to run a business in this country with such poor communication skills. They have this weird habit of always calling me "handsome boy," which makes no sense because I'm a thirty-seven year old man with an ample supply of gray hair. Why are these people referencing adult customers as children? I've had my hair cut here before and didn't have any problems, but some of the employees don't know how to talk to people. Hair doesn't need to be an ordeal, so I always tell them the same thing: cut off half of everything and use the thinning scissors to cut out bulk. This is easy. The first time I went here and explained this the lady handed me a book of pictures and asked me what I wanted. I told her the book wasn't necessary and explained again what I wanted. She seemed to get the idea. The most recent time I went here I explained what I wanted three times and the woman didn't understand me. She stared at me the same way a cow looks at an oncoming train and asked: "You want a scissor cut?" I walked out and I won't be returning. These women don't listen when you talk to them and they don't try to understand anything you say. If I have to explain something simple three times and you still don't understand me, then you are the problem. There was also a pile of combs on top of a towel, and another woman was grabbing combs at random while cutting someone else's hair. This is really unsanitary and there was no sign of barbicide anywhere.

Fast and silent. Just the way I like. I just needed to shorten my hair. They did it under 5 minutes. Fastest i ever had.

Very affordable and excellent customer services. This is my second visit. I walked in and did not expect much. My hair was ruined elsewhere and I got it fixed here. The lady (I forgot to ask her name) listened to what happened to me and what I wanted with what's left of the damaged hair. She examined my hair texture, lengths (plural since it's chopped at different lengths with many layers) and made suggestions after asking about how I usually style and part my hair. My first visit was a month ago for a brow wax. I didn't leave a review at the time, but my brows looked nice and clean, and exactly how I wanted them. Do recommend and will come back again.

I love it! I will never let anyone else touch or cut my hair. Only here! When I want something different, she delivers! Excellent!
