Melinda Hair

I really enjoyed the owner of this shop! he was delightful and truly a sweet man. Also they have a nice selection and very good pricing.

I've been coming to this place for several years now. I used to go to another retailer for extensions, but I just so happened to discover this place by fluke. Once I saw the large selection and how affordable the prices are, I've been coming here ever since. I don't think you could find better prices anywhere else! I also appreciate the owner's customer service and eagerness to help.

Amazing selection and friendly staff. Not sure why some of these other reviews are so harsh. I think the guy is nice and I would take my fiancé back there any day. The medical grade synthetic wigs look really good!

I was looking for specific hair and the sales lady at Abantu suggested I go to Melinda’s across the street. I was looking for X-Pression ombré colours. I walk in and a very courteous gentleman pointed me to a huge selection. I thought I had died and went to paradise. His prices are unbeatable. $5 a bag. I was dreading having to go to Surrey to buy hair and now I know where to go every time. I will be back as the prices and selection are comparable to the US hair products stores.

WORD?WOW!!! Japanese hair synthetic heat resistant for braiding!!!! Had to stop using hair from China..it made my head so itchy. Please people, buy your hair from this man, he's so helpful and polite. Sorry African mart... quality speaks for itself ? Lady Alex

Wow! I was blown away when I stepped into this store, totally by accident because Abantu across the street was closed. Every colour of X-pression that exists can be found here, and that’s not an exaggeration. Solid colours, ombré colours, 2 tone colours. And they are only $5 per bag! Awesome deal! They also have faux dreads in different colors and a lot of weave hair and wigs. The shop owner is very kind, great service. Will be back for sure!

Wow this guy is so warming very helpful and kind so many wigs to chose from at great prices hair toppers and etc. I've now bought two wigs from him and am very satisfied with both

I was on a tight budget and I wanted to buy a fashionable hair wig at a great price, a hair wig that would make me look like a million bucks :) I did a lot of homework and studied many wig shops info and spent many hours on reading reviews. Wow, my hard work paid off when I found Melinda Hair, I read some of the reviews saying Melinda has the best prices in town, massive selections...all sounded like music to me, so I gave Melinda a visit. The owner Charles looked cautious in the beginning, maybe he dealt with thefts before, he followed me closely in the beginning. But after I showed him I was a good kind person, he relaxed and started showing me the best quality ones made in Japan located on the back, he helped me to try out 10 wigs, and I picked 2 that made me look like I just had a high end hair cut and highlight done by a celebrity hair stylist. I showed Charles kindness and he returned with kindness back and taught me the difference between a cheap wig from China and a excellent one from Japan. I realized I was charged triple the price for the lower quality wigs I bought from higher end shops in the past. On top of that Charles gave me his honest opinions, I picked a wig initially but decided to buy an extra one for change, so I tried another 5 wigs, and he would say these 2 look much better on you forget about the first one, just buy these 2, other shop owners will say all look good on me, get them all. I really appreciate Charles knowledge and honest opinions. When I showed him kindness, he returned with kindness and treated me like a good friend. Charles told me he was in this business for 22 years, he was a wholesaler in the beginning thinking it was easier but after being cheated and ripped off by dishonest store owners during his first 10 years, he decided to open his own retail shop and run his own shows, he has close factory contacts from Japan and China and eliminated lots of middle men and can give customers the best selections and prices possible. Ladies I like to give you my best tips:- 1. if you are well off and want premium services such as a special appointment with private room, and don't mind paying $300 to $500 more for a wig, go to the high end shops 2. Charles run his shop at low profit margin, let's be reasonable and not expect premium services, show him with kindness and respect and you will definitely find fashion wigs at great prices 3. if you are on a tight budget like me during this Covid time Melinda Hair will be perfect for you, the shop has more than 200 wigs for you to choose at awesome prices 4. like most mall business owners these days, Charles is running his shop as a one man band and cannot afford to hire help, so the best time to come is in the afternoon between 1 pm to 5 pm, I went at 3 pm on Friday, and is perfect 5. these small business owners are short of cash, is better to ask for exchange not refund if you change your mind, better confirm with Charles about exchange / refund before you pay 6. Charles does give extra discount if you buy more than one 7. he will give additional discount if you pay in cash so he saves on credit card fees, and for this reason, I went to TD to get him cash 8. if your heart telling you Charles already giving you a great price, don't keep asking for cheaper price, it only shows how greedy you are Charles is a older Chinese man who does not speak perfect English, but who cares as long as I can understand him. With the cash I paid Charles, he joked that he could then afford some nice dumplings for dinner, it just shows how difficult for small business owners during this pandemic time, my good friend runs a laundry shop as a one man band, my friend hardly take a day off and hardly afford nice meals yet his bills keep piling up and never able to get ahead :( So ladies, let's show these small business owners more love and support, stop complaining. The 2 wigs I bought are made in Japan very light and airy, is a piece of Art indeed, I feel like I hit the jackpot :) I am ready to showcase my look to the world, ha ha ha :)
