Richmond Hill’s Top 10 Beauty Salons & Beauty Professionals

The Profile

Borna Beauty is located at Yonge Street in Richmond Hill and presents itself as an owner-led studio founded in 2008. The salon’s public menu lists precision haircuts, balayage and full-colour work, eyebrow design, bridal updos and facial treatments carried out by experienced stylists.

Borna Beauty's team promotes a blend of technical skill and editorial finishing, describing signature blowouts, luxurious colour blends and tailored cuts for face shape and lifestyle. The site highlights premium products, regular clients and an emphasis on personalised consultations that aim to keep results luminous yet wearable for daily life.

Borna’s service model also includes bridal styling and facial treatments which broadens the salon beyond routine hair maintenance into full-occasion preparation. The studio uses an online calendar integrated with Calendly and Google for instant confirmation, reflecting a decade-plus presence and a workflow set up for scheduled, multi-step colour appointments.

Why It Made the List and Why It’s Our Top Pick

Borna Beauty is ranked first because its decade-long Richmond Hill presence is paired with an owner-led approach and a broad menu that explicitly offers precision cutting, balayage, bridal styling and facial treatments; combined, these elements give a reliable, finish-oriented studio where complex looks are planned with consultations and follow-up.

The Profile

ASHLEEYBEAUTY highlights owner-driven colour work with explicit notes that Ashley personally applies balayage and formulates toners. The salon posts a 15-minute colour consultation option and details for balayage, babylights and toner services, stressing that product cost is additional and that results depend on each client’s hair history.

ASHLEEYBEAUTY’s menu includes clear service rules for chemically treated hair, with starting prices listed for full or partial balayage and for solid colours. The studio also indicates that wash, toner and haircut steps may be performed by another stylist after Ashley completes the colour application, which structures multi-hands appointments.

Why It Made the List

ASHLEEYBEAUTY stands out for its deliberate consultation process and owner-led application: the salon requires a short consultation and recommends or charges a modest fee for test strands when clients have prior permanent colour or box dye, helping the team determine whether a balayage or lightening plan is achievable in a single appointment.

Good to Know

If you have previously coloured or boxed hair, book the 15-minute colour consultation and request a test strand (fee listed at about $5–$10) before scheduling a full balayage; without testing, some lightening services may not be completed on the same day.
