Located in the airy loft space that used to be Milagro Cantina's second floor, this sunny Queen West hair salon and beauty bar is well-stocked with friendly expert stylists and top-of-the-line products from the likes of Redken, Olaplex and ColorProof.

Services include cuts, colour, extensions, treatments and styling for both men and women. Hair By Banks also has actual blonde specialists on staff to fulfil your platinum dreams without all the damage, which is clutch.

Guests chill on a private outdoor patio while waiting for their hair to process, if it's nice out, or stay inside and chill or enjoy a drink from the salon's licensed bar.
