16 Years of Great Hair and Community at The Cabinet: Toronto's Top Salon

This fall, The Cabinet Salon celebrates a milestone that feels both humbling and inspiring: 16 years on the corner of Queen & Portland in Toronto’s Queen Street West neighbourhood.

When we first opened our doors in 2009, we dreamed of creating more than just a Toronto hair salon. We wanted a space where artistry, connection, and community could thrive side by side. Over the years, The Cabinet has grown into just that: a welcoming salon in Toronto where clients, stylists, and local artists come together to share not only hair transformations, but stories, ideas, and inspiration.

Our Team

At the heart of The Cabinet is our team of expert stylists. Their artistry, dedication, and passion are what make this Queen Street West salon truly special. From precision cuts and dimensional colour to extensions and keratin treatments, their expertise continues to set the standard for quality and creativity.

But beyond the techniques and transformations, it is the care and heart they bring to every appointment that makes the real difference. The Cabinet would not be what it is today without them.

Our Clients

From our very first haircut to today, we are endlessly grateful to the clients who walk through our doors. You have trusted us with your hair, your stories, and your time. Many of you have been with us since day one, and countless more have joined along the way. Your loyalty and support have made everything possible.

Our Community

The Cabinet has always been more than a salon. It has been a community gallery, a space for local artists to showcase their work, and a partner in supporting organizations like Rainbow Railroad, Daily Bread Food Bank, Egale Canada, and more.

We are also proud to be a sustainable salon through our partnership with Green Circle, ensuring that our services and practices are environmentally responsible. Giving back, both to people and the planet, will always be central to who we are.

Looking Ahead

Sixteen years is a milestone, but it is also just the beginning. As we look to the future, our commitment remains the same: to provide exceptional, personalized hair services in a welcoming and affirming environment while continuing to support our community and the causes close to our hearts.

To everyone who has walked through our doors, worked beside us, or supported us along the way, thank you. Here is to celebrating the past 16 years, and to everything still to come.

With Love,

Alex & Emma
