Hair Salons
A one-stop shop on Moncton Street: cuts, balayage, toners, K18 and hair botox treatments, extensions and bridal styling, plus brow lamination, lash lifts, permanent makeup and nails. Useful when you want hair and brows done in the same visit.
Booking hair and brows in the same trip is the specific convenience on offer here. Collective Beauty Studio runs both sides under one roof: cuts, color work, toners, treatments, extensions and bridal styling on the hair side, and brow lamination, lash lifts, permanent makeup and nails on the beauty side. That collapses what is normally three appointments in three places into a single visit, which is worth something if your spare time arrives in blocks rather than in loose afternoons.
The studio is on Moncton Street in Steveston, a village main street rather than a mall corridor, so the trip feels different from a No. 3 Road appointment. You park once and then you walk, and the errand tends to expand into a coffee and a wander toward the water. On a Tuesday that is a pleasant accident. On a summer Saturday the village is full, the lots are full, and the walk in from wherever you found a spot is longer than you planned for.
Bridal work and permanent makeup both need real lead time. Color correction does too, and it is not something to spring on a salon at short notice, because fixing somebody else's work takes longer than doing it from scratch. Anything structural deserves a consultation booked well before the event rather than the week of it. Prices and appointment lengths vary enormously between treatments, so get a quote for the exact service you want before committing to a date.

Longer reads from the editor, with the places worth a detour linked inside them.
The Night Market's final season is the loud story. The quieter one: free admission at the Cannery ends Monday, Britannia keeps summer hours through Sunday, and Steveston does sunsets better than anyone.

Nothing on Alexandra Road is a secret. It is just in a strip mall with bad signage and no patio, which is why visitors never find it. Here is how I actually use Richmond's plazas and food courts, which specialists are worth the drive, and when not to bother.

The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.
