Welcome to The Hair Apothecary

With an open heart, a lot of faith, a huge love to create and be surrounded by beautiful things, Monique Gilchrist opened The Hair Apothecary (formerly MEG salon boutique). The knowledge and experience that spans over two and a half decades could meet the present and compliment the latest techniques and trends with some of the more traditional hair styling approaches.

“I believe people are looking for realistic options and solutions on how to approach their own unique style; to be able to stay hip and fresh regardless of what stage in life they are and by their own definition. Whether it's hair, clothing or accessories or all the above.”

Continuing to be surrounded by beautiful things, The Hair Apothecary uses and provides for take home purchase, Davines (pronounced dav-in-ess) complementing the service experience that we provide. All products are available in our online shop.

Honest, thorough consultations – With so many options available to us to seek inspiration or product choice, being able to zero in on what the best approach will be is of utmost importance. Even if you have a hard time expressing your thoughts, likes and dislikes about your desired outcome, I will not begin anything until we have a solid understanding of what is being executed for your service.

What our clients say

Testimonials

“ I have been a client of Monique’s for years and I will never go to anyone
else. My hair has never looked better. Monique is a very skilled stylist and
colorist, and the color she has created on my hair is amazing. She is not only
incredibly talented but also friendly and professional. Finding someone who
can do a great job on your hair and can do it consistently year after year is
pretty rare. That is what you’ll find with Monique.”

I’ve been seeing Monique for my hair for quite some time now, and I truly can’t imagine going to anyone else. Her expertise in color is simply outstanding—she has an incredible eye and always knows exactly how to create the perfect tone, blend, or bold transformation. Every time I leave her chair, I feel like the best version of myself. Monique is the definition of professionalism. She listens carefully, offers honest, thoughtful advice, and takes real pride in her work. What makes her stand out even more is her kindness—she creates such a warm, welcoming environment, and always makes you feel completely at ease. Over the years, Monique has become more than just my trusted hairdresser—she’s become a good friend. She’s someone who genuinely cares, not just about how your hair looks, but about you as a person. If you're looking for someone with true talent, integrity, and heart, Monique is the one. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
