When I’m not at the salon, you’ll find me spending time with family and friends, or hanging out with my two furry companions, Henry and Winnie, who are always up for an evening walk or cuddle session.
I’m currently offering a 10% discount on all services for new appointments—so if you're looking for a fresh look, I’d love to see you in my chair!

When I'm not behind the chair, you'll likely catch me watching my favorite shows, like The Office, Jersey Shore, and The Kardashians, or jamming out to Nicki Minaj and hits from the 2010s era while running errands or grabbing my daily iced coffee from McDonald's. I’m a Leafs fan by default, but don’t worry, the Oilers are my third favorite team!
I’m looking forward to meeting new faces, building lasting connections, and providing you with the best hair experience possible. I can’t wait to see you in my chair!
