Aleah loves to make her clients feel and look their best. As a stylist, Aleah is always eager to learn new skills and techniques. No matter what it is you’re looking for she is ready to take on the task. She is always known to make her clients feel comfortable with her warm presence, not to mention how relaxed they all feel after her amazing head massages.

Her love for hairdressing started at a very young age playing with her Barbie’s hair. She was either behind stage at her dance recitals helping the dance moms with ballerina buns, or in the locker room braiding the basketball team's hair before game day through high school.

When Aleah is away from the salon she’s elevating her skills with education as part of the salon’s Davines Visionary. If you’re looking for someone who knows the ins and outs of Davines hair care, Aleah is your go-to girl.

When Aleah isn’t focusing on hair she loves to listen to music, dance, spend time with her loved ones, and painting on her down time. At your next appointment keep an eye out for Aleah dancing while your colour is processing!

Ask Aleah about her favourite dance move?

Laurisa is a Master stylist with over two decades of experience in the industry.

A stylist whose goal for clients is not just to deliver on your vision and have you leave feeling beautiful and confident but, also that you feel comfortable and relaxed during you visit.

Laurisa’s passion stems not only from a creative desire but, a drive to have every client leave feeling like the best version of themselves. Whether it be a big transformation or some much needed me time. She love to see you smile and her loud laugh can be heard all through the salon.

She has a hunger for continued education and stays on top of all the current blonding and precision cutting trends. If you’ve seen Laurisa working, you know her true love is all things blonde. When do you consider a stylist a blonding specialist? When you’ve taken all the classes and still are in search for more because you crave to know it all and know you never will as the beauty industry is forever evolving …Throughout her career she has been fortunate to have had the opportunities to take part in fashion shows and assist at Toronto Fashion Week for a season.

When she is not behind the chair you can bet she is with her dog, getting out for a hike with her husband or catching up on a good book, movie or tv show.
