Renato is so talented and gave me the best bob ever!! Absolutely amazing!!!

Had my hair done by Renato and I couldnt be happier. He did a beautiful job with grey blending. The color loos so soft and blends beautifully. My hair feels healthy and is alot easier to style now. Renato really listened to what I wanted and I highly recommend him.
What an amazing place. First time i did grey blending so obviously I was nervous not knowing what to expect. Renato explained options clearly, kept my base and added soft seamless highlights so that maintenance could be kept at a minimum. Hair feels so healthy and his cut has great shape and movemen...t. Ive already booked my next two appointments. Thank you Renato! read more
Had an amazing experience at Fortelli Oakville! Daniella truly listened to my concerns about my dry, damaged hair, gave me detailed advice, and delivered the perfect cut and blow dry. The Davines treatment she recommended made an instant difference-my hair feels soft, looks healthy, and smells amazi...ng! Renato was also so helpful when I called beforehand. Luxury feel, generous use of products, and great attention to detail (including heat protection before blowdrying). Highly recommend! read more
Always a pleasure to go to Fortelli. I adore the downtown location on Lakshore- upscale and still friendly small-town. Melissa is such a sweetie - so personable and very caring with top quality colour and cutting skills, not to mention beautiful blow dry and finishing. Approachable owner checking in... on everyone provides the professional sincere touch. I love the relaxing vibe and always leave feeling pampered and pretty. read more

I have been going to Fortelli Salon for 6 years now and I am always so happy after every appointment!

Amazing hair cut and blow dry by owner Renato! Renato and the staff is very professional, friendly and accommodating. Really clean and a beautiful space. 10/10, really happy leaving the salon!
I wanted to say how much I love this salon. I went in for a consultation with Renato to review my options with black hair. My appointment went as promised and even better. I came out with a beautiful Brunette color w/bayalage. A true transformation. Renato and his staff are caring and friendly. True... workmanship. Beautiful salon Highly recommended !! It’s my go to now ! read more
I just wanted to take a moment to say how much I LOVE my hair! It is so soft and silky smooth, and the colour looks so natural! I just wanted to take the time to say THANK-YOU to Daniela!
They have the hair extensions in the store, they have so much supply and are very professional and knowledgeable. The man who did my hair was so good at it, so fast, and he did NOT have a lot to work with. After less than 3 hours my terrible haircut was fully invisible and I had long, beautiful, per...fectly blended extensions. I’d never had extensions before so I shopped around before choosing this salon, they have the best price for the best quality of service. read more
Felt extremely safe and welcomed when I had my haircut. Lovely staff. Great location!
Ordered hair products for curbside pick up and the process was very easy and organized.

I got a haircut from Daniela and it was so good that I had to write a review. I have very thick hair and she gave me soft flowing layers. What an excellent job!! Thank you!
My hair and colour looked great! Maggie is amazing, it felt good to get a cut and colour after many months. The salon was clean and you felt comfortable in there with your coat covered in plastic and the staff always cleaning.

It's an amazing salon. I just say my hair were very dry, frizzy and not at all manageable. They did an excellent job and exactly made it look the way I imagined.. I can't expressed my love enough for this hair cut. Thanks you very much Fortelli salon!!

Hi Josephine! We are thrilled to hear how much you love your new hair cut! We appreciate you taking the time to review our salon, looking forward to seeing you again soon! Thanks again 🙂 Fortelli Salon
After years of searching for a studio with skilled staff and high quality hair products, Fortelli hits the mark. I’ve been a client for the past 5 years and have *never* had a bad experience. I have long, very dark hair with layers of color on it, but when I decided to go lighter, Melissa took me do...wn without compromising the integrity of my hair and achieved the exact look I was going for. The time is taken to really listen and consult before each appointment. I visit every 6 weeks, not because I need to, but because it is truly a great, relaxing experience and they keep my hair looking fresh and super healthy. read more

Love Fortelli’s staff is wonderful and I’m never disappointed with my hair style! Really great people!
Easily the best cut & colour I've had in years. Thrilled to find a stylist who has a plan for dealing with my impossible, post-chemo hair.

«We offer the two most popular methods of human hair extensions — Keratin Bond (K-Tips) and Tape-Ins. Both methods create beautiful, natural-looking results with comfortable, long-term wear.
Our extensions are made by Seiseta, a premium Italian brand formerly known as Euro SoCap, known worldwide for its ethically sourced, 100% Remy human hair and innovative bonding technology. Whether you want to add length, volume, or a touch of color, our stylists will help you choose the method that best suits your hair type and lifestyle.
View more information about our hair extensions services.
How much do hair extensions cost at Fortelli?
«The cost of your hair extensions will depend on several different factors, mainly driven by how much hair we need, the length and density of the wefts, and the time it takes to apply them. We offer keratin bond fusion extensions as well as tape in extensions. Both are made by Seiseta and are of excellent quality. Depending on your hair type and lifestyle, we may recommend one type over another. Tape ins are recommended for fine or thin hair because they are lighter in weight. Fusion extensions are often favoured for someone with an active lifestyle or someone who wants to add lots of extended length. Tape ins are a much shorter application time, a full head can be applied in about an hour. Fusion extensions use a strand by strand method, smaller wefts of hair, and can take several hours to apply a full head. To get a better idea of the cost of your hair extensions, schedule a free hair extensions consultation.
We offer a private hair extensions consultation so that we can meet each other in person, discuss the look you want, and see and feel samples of the hair.
