Our team

Julia

Owner/Senior Stylist

I always wanted to own my own salon so when the opportunity came up to buy this business, I felt the fear and did it anyway. This salon location is well known as Brooklyn’s original hairdressers because it’s been serving the community for over 40 years.

I love my job, I get to come in and do hair cause I love it, catch up with my clients and I enjoy sharing a laugh with them. I get ultimate job satisfaction everyday, cause I’m part of creating the extra confidence in the people that I look after. My earlier training has instilled some good habits so I make it my business to attend training workshops, pop-up education and hair expo so we always keep our skills current.

Mark

Senior Stylist

I've been in the hairdressing industry for over 20 years and still love it. I enjoy all aspects of the industry, especially wedding and formal occasion hair. I've worked hard on perfecting excellent scissor skills and colouring techniques.

Not only do I love making my clients even more beautiful, I enjoy meeting new people and guiding them on their hair journey. I love to show my expertise as a stylist and communicator, making my clients excited about change and following new trends. That's what makes me excited about my career.
