    Hi Shai, Thanks so much again for my new cut. I’ve had all sorts of comments from my coworkers…all good of, course! I love the short ‘do and that I am no longer carrying (seemingly) several pounds of hair =)   -Julie, 2010

    C17“Hey Shai! I’m very happy with the cut/color, which I have gotten about a hundred compliments on, most of them including that my hair looks like a totally new head of healthy, shiny locks*. The shampoo** has been working great. It really does lather up and get everything feeling squeaky clean, but it doesn’t seem to dry it out, like the usual foamy shampoos.” -Chloe, 2009

    c15“Hi Shai,

    Thanks for helping me to grow out my natural colour, which magically turned out to be grey .  Grey hair and a chic cut is a cool combo.  Most hairdressers would shy away from such a request, but you were all over it, wow!  I love my hair.” -Debra, 2009

    Salon review from 2010Vancouver.ca

    “Pome is a unique little shop — located on the 9th floor of what seems like a pretty cool old office building (at 525 Seymour). It’s just one room, and Shai is the only stylist, so you get the place to yourself. Clearly a master with the scissors, there’s no messing around here. Shai understands a low-maintenance girl (like me) needs a low-maintenance cut. On day 3, I’m loving my new shorter ‘do.” -Christina, 2008

    _____________________________________________________________________________________c13 “Hi Shai! I just wanted to let you know that I am LOVING my colour! It looks so natural, and frames my face perfectly. And it looks awesome when I leave my hair curly. I feel like I was just at the beach -Jessica, 2008

    _____________________________________________________________________________________c11a“I LOVE MY HAIR. Love it, love it, love it. It’s so lovely coloured,shiny and bang-tastic.” -xo Lily (Oct. 2007)

    Shai! “I can not even tell you how much i am loving this haircut. It falls perfectly, I never have to do anything with it, and my bangs are absolutely spot on – exactly what i wanted for summertime. I’ll also have you know that the curls you meticulously wrangled my stick-straight hair into, stayed for 36 hours…36 HOURS! It was incredible and although they fell a little they were cute in every stage of the curl. Thanks so much for always managing to figure out what I want even when I can’t put it into words, you’re a miracle worker. ” -Lily (April 2008)

    RE: removing a year’s worth of black, drugstore dye.

    “This morning I woke up and my hair was black like normal. I went to visit Shai and she made magic happen. She rocked out a bunch of different colours of highlights…thank you, Shai! This might be the first time in history that I haven’t cried when I got home from the hairdresser’s!” -Kim, 2007

    _____________________________________________________________________________________c3c“I’m still completely jazzed about my haircut, Shai. The way you did it, I can leave it in it’s natural waves and it looks awesome. I’ll finally be able to save the ol’ straightener for special occasions and stop kicking the crap out of my hair every day. You=best stylist EVER.”-Jobi (2006) I am still (and probably forever) quite in love with my haircut. You work magic. -Jobi, 2007

    rRebecca wrote a review in 2007 on sweetspot.ca, titled “Pome Sweet Pome”. In 2009, she became the western editor of Fashion magazine.

    “…we’ll admit that we’re not ones to refuse an opportunity to bask in the spotlight, either. Especially not when we’re sporting a new ‘do. So when we found out that  Shai Dhali hairstylist extraordinaire, photographer, and owner of Pome Studio, was conducting five-minute photo shoots for her newly-chopped clients and publishing the results on her website, we jumped at the chance…” cont.
