Head Quarters Hair Salon

Head Quarters Hair Salon takes its name from an obvious play on words, a common style of naming in the hair trade. It operates in Pemberton, tucked into the residential blocks on the west side of North Vancouver, closer to the hillside streets than to either of the Lonsdale commercial strips below. Small service businesses here tend to blend into rows of houses and low-rise apartments rather than stand out along a retail strip, which suits a neighbourhood built primarily for living rather than shopping.

A neighbourhood like Pemberton supports this kind of everyday service business precisely because residents would rather book a routine cut close to home than travel toward busier commercial nodes elsewhere in the city. That convenience factor tends to matter more to a local clientele than a long service menu or a polished storefront. First-time visitors should treat a stop at Head Quarters like any small, independently run shop and expect to confirm hours, pricing, and availability once inside rather than in advance.
