Verdict
Sonu Hair Cut is a real BC barbershop chain (13 branches since 1997) and the mail-application address, 1006 Blanshard St V8W 2H5, is exactly its verified Victoria storefront — so applicants are mailing to a genuine business premises, not a home or PO box. The mail-only application channel and the notably high $39/hr wage for a hairstylist are mild markers of the LMIA-advertising pattern, but nothing indicates a fake employer or applicant harm. Low-to-borderline risk.
