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 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.
