OUR TALENTED TEAM
Hey Calgary!
​
I've been working as a hair stylist for over 15 years, of which the last 9 years have been in London, UK. The experience of working for some of the most reputable salons in London has taught me so much and contributed to my growth as a hair stylist. Being surrounded by so many highly skilled international colleagues has given me an interesting perspective on the differing approaches and techniques to hair which has really helped me develop my skills.
I was fortunate to spend the last two years in London at the prestigious Taylor Taylor Salon, based in the world renowned Liberty's, Soho store. I specialized in ladies' colour and balayage where our work was covered by numerous magazines and social media.
I have been approached to work in various shows and events across Europe and Paris which has further added to my career progression. I'm happy to be back home in Calgary and create your inspired look.
