1170 Weston (c.1910s)

Ladies of Weston Road…this question is for you…I'm trying to remember the name of the hair salon on Weston Road which was owned by two young, stylish sisters of British origin. They took photographs of clients to display in their window and I was one of them. I loved how they cut my hair short and with a touch of "mod".

Again, that would be Irenas Hair Design - 1182 Weston Rd, Irena was the owner and Teresa her sister then there were 4 other sisters - Zofia, Daniela, Barbara (Me) and Elena - Surma the last name

Barbara, how wonderful. I loved your sister's hair salon. They were such wonderful women. If you can, just say hello from someone who remembered them.
Darlene Patrick
Yes...mom did for a while, then it was a bit hard to cross Weston Rd...so she went to Hailey Hair design right next door to my dads shop..

They were actually Polish. They had British accents because that's where the children were born, but the parents were Polish...there was one more younger girl too. Irena's was the 'funky' place to go...they also did guys hair...the long haired freaks that Sister Eleanor wouldn't let pose in school pictures!!! LOL!! They eventually moved to the Bloor Village, near Runnyemede. not sure if they are still there...

I used to get my hair done there, they were really nice girls. I had my hair done there for my wedding at the Good Shepherd in 1972.

I cant believe that I forgot M&M variety store, right across the street from Locust on Weston Rd. I had my first job there, the basement reminded me of something from a Stephen King movie, I also had my first real kiss at the magazine stand, lol. Ahhh memories, I love this site. Thanks to whoever started it up!!!
