Born from Passion, Fueled by Resilience
Kaiis Salon (pronounced “Ka.is”) was born in 2021, right in the heart of the pandemic. The world seemed on hold, but not our dreams. We faced product shortages, skyrocketing prices, and constant delays – it wasn’t exactly sunshine and rainbows. As a brand-new business, government support wasn’t an option. We questioned ourselves – were we dreamers, or maybe a little reckless, starting a business when the world felt so shaky?
But then, a powerful realization struck us. The very uncertainty of the times made us appreciate the preciousness of every moment. We shouldn’t wait to chase our dreams, to feel confident and beautiful. That’s why our mission is to “make big days memorable and ordinary days fun.” We believe everyone deserves to feel confident and beautiful in every moment, big or small. That’s the essence of every experience we create, from weddings and events to everyday life.
Fast forward to today, and we’re incredibly grateful for the journey. Thanks to our amazing customers who love our work and spread the word, Kaiis Salon has become a top rated hair salon in Vancouver. Our wedding and event hair and makeup artistry is also a favorite among Vancouverites. Every new client inspires us to refine our craft and deliver an even better experience.
At Kaiis Salon, the details matter. From the beautiful salon environment to our meticulously chosen hair care products, everything you experience reflects the heart and soul of our team. We handpicked, designed, and even handmade some of the items ourselves!
Book your appointment today and let us create a look that makes you feel confident and ready to embrace every moment!
