You sit in the chair, hopeful for an amazing outcome, but leave wondering what went wrong.
It’s frustrating when a stylist doesn’t really hear you, or just can’t deliver what you had in mind. You wanted to feel amazing, not let down.

Lynn Ritchie
" Rylie is a colour WIZARD. My daughter's hair went from brown to an absolutely *stunning* shade of vibrant blue with ease. My daughter was absolutely thrilled, and so was I. I cannot recommend her highly enough - she knows her chemistry and has mastered her craft. My daughter will definitely be back and I have already recommended this salon, and Rylie, to several colleagues and friends. "

" Michelle at Vamp is Victoria’s best kept secret I think. She is an incredibly talented hair colourist, does my cool blonde balayage exactly how I like it, and is wonderful and friendly to boot! Would give 10 stars if I could! 💜 "
Stephanie Clarke
" I Finally found a salon in Esquimalt that gets textured cuts right. Rin has cut my hair several times and every time I’m blown away by: A. How well they listen and B. Their skill! I have cried many times after haircuts because people don’t really understand my type of hair or something. Rin has a true gift for hair. They routinely give me the best textured cuts. Hands down. And they’re very fun to talk to. "
Hi, I’m Michelle the founder of VAMP Salon and a stylist with over 20 years behind the chair. I opened VAMP in 2016 with one goal: to create a space where people feel heard, seen, and completely confident in their hair.
The idea started years ago in hair school, where I met my friend Sun. Though she’s no longer in the industry, our shared dream of building something creative and client-focused was the spark that led to what VAMP is today.
After spending nearly a decade working in chain salons, I knew I wanted more freedom to deliver personalized, high-quality service and to help people express who they are through hair that feels like them. That’s what we do here every day.
Now, I’m lucky to work alongside an incredible team of stylists who bring their own unique talents and passions to the salon. We’re committed to ongoing education, staying on top of trends, and always putting your experience first, whether it’s a precision cut, dimensional colour, vibrant transformation, or seamless extensions.
VAMP is more than a salon... It’s a place to show up as you are, and leave feeling even more you.
