Born and raised in Penticton, Vanessa’s career as a stylist and colourist led her to Vancouver, where she spent the last decade living. Eager to begin a new chapter in her life, Vanessa and her husband moved home to Penticton to be close to her family in 2021. She is so excited to be back and can’t wait to take part in all that beautiful Penticton has to offer!
Vanessa has been a stylist for 12 years now. Her love for hair began when she was first working for David as a receptionist back in the mid 2000s – they go WAY back! Really not feeling the love for reception work, she was more than eager to hear David when he told her she was good at hair and should consider going to hair school. Vanessa jumped at the idea, and attended Marvel College in Kelowna in 2008. After graduating, her career took off and she was soon off to the coast – eventually finding herself at a high-end salon in North Van.
Vanessa is now decorated with multiple certifications; she is a certified Redken Colourist, a certified Goldwell Master Colourist.
A happiness-first kind of girl, a roller skating enthusiast, and an animal lover with an especially large soft-spot for dogs (she and her hubby have 2 Boston terriers), Vanessa is a real character. She’s funny, friendly and outgoing with a self-admitted obsession with unicorns. Her mantra is “if we aren’t having fun, it’s no good!” Vanessa cherishes her ability to make a positive impact in her guests’ lives. “We (stylists/colourists) really help them feel better through tough times, and that is magic!”
We couldn’t agree more, and trust us, magic she will show you!
Vanessa specializes in colour of all kinds, babylights, every and all types of foiling, and blonding blonding blonding! Rumor has it that she’s known back at the coast as a ‘blonde master’... so you’d better believe this girl rocks it!
