Oakville Hair Artist | Empowering Women 35 + Through Style & Self-Expression

Specializing in Blonding, Seamless Color & Signature Cutting

Meet Suzanne

Hi, I’m Suzanne, I specialize in working with women over 35, helping them express their individuality, inner strength, and evolving beauty through personalized hair design. My work goes beyond just hair—it's about holding space for women to reconnect with themselves - creating a safe, supportive environment where they can show up as their most authentic self.

It’s about more than just hair styling - it’s about allowing women to express who they truly are: their beauty, their strength, their passion, their softness, and everything in between. Together, we design a look that works with them and for them—something that feels aligned, empowering, and deeply personal.

Because hair isn’t just a style - it’s a reflection of where you are in your life journey, and a powerful way to express all that you are and all that you're becoming.

Through expert blonding, seamless colour, and signature cuts, I create styles that are as unique and dynamic as the women wearing them—styles that move with them, empower them, and elevate their everyday confidence.

With over 25 years of experience, I’ve had the honour of owning a successful salon, inspiring fellow stylists across the country as a Redken Canada National Artist, and contributing my craft to high-profile events like Toronto Fashion Week and TIFF.

I've spent years blending artistry with precision, designing looks that are modern, intentional, and full of life. But at the heart of it all, my passion lies in supporting women on their journey - helping them embrace their story, celebrate their beauty, and feel seen, powerful, and truly themselves.

That’s what fuels me every day—and I feel incredibly grateful to do this work with the inspiring women in my chair.

  • More than just colour, it’s your personal palette, reimagined.

This is colour that’s authentically you, polished, radiant, and impossible to forget.

    Full Spectrum Colour

    An all-over colour crafted to bring your vision to life. Whether you're covering greys, refreshing your tone, or embracing something completely new, this single-process colour is tailored from roots to ends for a seamless, vibrant result. Rich, dimensional, and reflective of your unique style, this is a full transformation in one refined step.

    Root Refresh

    Hair Filler

    The essential step before going darker or correcting past damage. Hair Filler reintroduces lost pigment and balances porosity, creating a strong, even foundation for rich, lasting colour. It also adds moisture and shine, leaving hair healthy, prepped, and ready for transformation.

    Root Lightening

    A brightening boost at the base. Root Lightening lifts your natural colour several levels, blending flawlessly into blonde or balayaged ends. Ideal for maintaining a luminous blonde from root to tip. Finished with custom toning to perfect your shade.Unlike a traditional root touch-up, which deposits colour to cover grey’s or regrowth, a root lightener lifts the natural colour using a professional-grade lightening agent. It's often followed by a toning step to refine the colour and neutralize any unwanted undertones such as yellow, orange, or gold that can appear during the lightening process.

    Full Lightening

A highly technical process requiring expert precision and artistry, it includes detailed assessment, controlled application, and customized toning for the perfect finish.

    This is one of the most technical and demanding services in professional hair colour, requiring advanced knowledge of hair chemistry, formulation, and application.

In some cases, multiple sessions may be required to safely achieve the desired level of lightness-especially for dark, colour-treated, or previously compromised hair.

The result is instant: amplified shine, renewed softness, and a smoother texture with reduced frizz, without altering your natural curl pattern. Hair Botox lasts up to 2–4 months and is ideal for anyone craving deep nourishment and revived hair health.

Results last up to 3–6 months, depending on hair type and home care. It’s your shortcut to low-maintenance, high-shine confidence.

    Which One is Right for You?

    Hair Botox
    Choose this if your hair feels dry, brittle, over-processed, or lacks shine and manageability. Hair Botox is ideal for:

    • Fine to medium hair textures

    • Clients who want to smooth and repair without losing volume or curl

    • Frizz control without commitment to straight hair

    • A deep conditioning boost with noticeable softness

    • Those wanting a subtle, natural finish

    Lasts: 2–4 months with proper care
    Vibe: Nourishing, hydrating, reviving

    Keratin Smoothing Treatment
    Go for keratin if your hair is thick, coarse, unruly, or prone to puffiness in humidity. Keratin is best suited for:

    • Medium to coarse hair types

    • Clients wanting smoother, sleeker, straighter strands

    • Reducing blow-dry time and effort

    • Smoothing without chemical straightening

    • A longer-lasting, polished finish

    Lasts: 3–6 months with proper care
    Vibe: Sleek, strong, frizz-free

    Maintenance Guide: Get the Most From Your Treatment

    To protect your investment and extend the life of your smoothing treatment, follow these simple guidelines:

    • Use a sulfate-free, sodium chloride–free shampoo & conditioner.
      These ingredients can strip the treatment from your hair prematurely. I’ll recommend professional-grade options suited to your hair type.

    • Wait before washing (Keratin only).
      Avoid washing your hair or getting it wet for 72 hours post-keratin treatment. With Hair Botox, you can typically wash the next day or as advised.

    • Avoid ponytails or clips for 2–3 days (Keratin only).
      Let your hair stay down and free to prevent dents or creases during the setting phase.

    • Minimize heat styling.
      Although your hair will blow dry faster and straighter, limit flat iron use to preserve your treatment. When you do style, always use a thermal protectant.

    • Book your next treatment proactively.
      To keep your hair consistently smooth and frizz-free, prebook every 10–12 weeks for Botox or 4–5 months for Keratin.

  • Tape In Hair Extensions

    Tape in hair extensions are exactly what they sound like. The extensions are pre-taped and then taped/glued together on either side of your own hair.

    Fusion & Pre-Bonded Hair

    Fusion hair extensions (also known as bonding or pre-bonded) are fused to natural hair using different adhesives such as glue.

    Microlink hair extensions

    Microlink hair extensions are also known as micro bead hair extensions or micro loop hair extensions. These are applied by attaching tiny wefts of hair to small sections of the natural hair with a small silicone-lined bead.
