Meet Emily

When I was little,...

 

I had the most beautiful ringlet curls—until the day I decided to climb a filing cabinet to grab a pair of scissors and give myself my very first haircut. My curls did not survive that creative experiment. From then on, my hair grew in fine and mostly straight. Then puberty hit—boom—and suddenly, I was dealing with what every hairstylist (until I went to hair school myself) called frizz.

 

I was told my hair would behave if I just used more straightening cream, a little extra oil, a hotter flat iron, or the latest “miracle” spray or “magic” balm. Nothing worked. It wasn’t until university that I started to really understand my hair type and texture. It wasn’t ringlets anymore, but it wasn’t straight either—it lived somewhere in between. With time, I learned what my hair actually needed and how to work with it, not against it, to get the best and most consistent results.

Creativity is at the heart of everything I do...

 

 Hair is my daily canvas, and I love the artistry involved in creating a look that’s both visually striking and feels uniquely you. I don’t believe in cookie-cutter styles—every head of hair tells its own story. My goal is always to craft something that feels authentic to you, blending technical precision with creative intuition. Whether you're looking for something bold or subtle, I work to ensure your hair reflects your personality, lifestyle, and individuality.

 

When I’m not behind the chair (or spending time with my husband, Jacob), you’ll probably find me tucked away in my art room, happily lost in another one of art projects.

What sets me apart isn't just my technical skill...

 

it’s how I show up for the people in my chair. I lead with empathy and genuinely love building lasting connections. Every appointment is a mix of optimism, care, and a little bit of whimsy. Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, my goal is for you to leave feeling welcomed, seen, and valued.

 

To me, beauty should be fun, uplifting, and a touch magical. There’s nothing quite like that moment when someone lights up at their reflection—and I’m grateful to play a small part in it. My chair is a space where you can exhale, be heard, and feel celebrated for exactly who you are.

When you sit in my chair,...

 

you're getting more than a service - you’re stepping into an experience. I take the time to understand your goals and create a relaxed, no-pressure space where you can genuinely unwind. My aim is for you to leave not only with beautiful hair, but with a little extra confidence and joy too.

If you’re looking for more than just “getting your hair done” and want something personal, uplifting, and completely your own, let’s connect. Together, we’ll create a look that helps you feel like your best self—every single day.
