My first week, I threw up every morning out of nervousness. I had just turned 18 and thought I’d started a career where I would spend my days simply playing with hair. I couldn’t have been more wrong.
I was probably one of the quietest and shyest people in all of York Region, which, as you can imagine, isn’t exactly ideal when your job is to talk to people all day.
I had to push myself out of my shell — sometimes just one-on-one with clients, other times when we’d take breaks to come up with silly dance routines. I spent countless hours watching Al, practicing on mannequins, sweeping floors, and washing hair. In time I got to apply colours, blow-dry hair, and do a few kids’ cuts… until I was eventually thrown into the deep end.
When I started taking my own clients I would go home crying hoping I was making everyone happy. And I’m pretty sure I made a few people cry too. Growing pains aren’t always pretty (literally). But thanks to the support of my coworkers and an amazing leader, I was always encouraged to learn, grow, and keep going.
I’m so proud to be part of an award-winning team, and to have earned a few of my own along the way.
You see, what I didn’t realize when I started this career was that my love for hair would turn into something so much bigger — a love for people.
Over the years, I’ve had the honor of hearing your stories, celebrating your milestones, and sharing in your struggles. I’ve watched little kids grow up, head off to college, get married, have babies, and start their own journeys. I've shaved heads of those going through cancer treatments, and shown up to funerals of those that were just in my chair last week. I’ve laughed, cried, and lived so many life moments right there behind the chair — with all of you.
To every single person who’s ever sat in my chair — thank you. Truly. You’ve shaped not just my career, but my heart.
Here’s to 20 years of hair, heart, and a whole lot of laughter.

Coming up to a big milestone.

Virgin hair, she's now an addict.

Modern French twist *chefs kiss

This blonde beauty who usually sees my colleague had a hair disaster this weekend...
She went swimming in a pool which must have had fresh chemicals in it. Her beautiful blonde balayage went GREEN.
In an understandable panic, she found a salon that was open and available over the weekend.
She then was left with brown hair!!! Not at all what she wanted, and not what she thought she had given permission for.
Luckily I had a cancelation this morning and could fit her into my schedule!! Check out the last picture to see the final product.
After removing the unwanted 'brown' toner, and getting rid of the chemical build up on her hair, we were left with a beautiful buttery blonde.
