“Owning Shear Image Salon for the past 30 years has been one of my greatest joys. With over three decades in the hair industry, I am a trained Colour Specialist and DevaCurl Professional. Every day, I strive to learn from my clients and my surroundings, always aiming to be the best I can be. Life is a journey, and there is always room to grow and learn.

Connecting with my clients and helping them feel beautiful and confident has been—and continues to be—the love of my life. I am passionate about all hair types and textures and am confident I can give you the cut and color that will make you feel your best.”

In 2023, Deanine had the honor of winning the Diamond Best Hairstylist/Barber and Colour Tech titles in the Grimsby Lincoln News Reader’s Choice Awards.

Elisa is a self-proclaimed “product junkie” with a passion for discovering the best hair products tailored to different hair textures. Her expertise particularly shines in working with natural curly hair, supported by extensive education in curly hair-cutting techniques. Starting her journey as a teenager at Shear Image Salon, Elisa has grown into the role of manager. She holds a B.F.A. in graphic design from the University of Tulsa (May 2020) and graduated from Niagara College’s Hairstyling program in July 2023.

Elisa’s dedication to her craft earned her the prestigious Diamond “Best in the West” Hairstylist title in both 2023 and 2024, awarded by readers of News Now Niagara. Now a certified L’anza Artist, she is trained to educate other stylists in everything related to L’anza Healing Haircare and Color, further highlighting her exceptional skills and leadership in the hair industry.

Ala, originally from Poland, immigrated to Canada in 2019. She graduated from Niagara College’s hairstyling and barbering program in August 2023 and completed a makeup course in April of the same year. She became a licensed hairstylist in June 2024. Ala’s true passion lies in blondes and highlights, where she excels at creating beautiful, sun-kissed looks. Her expertise extends to event hair and makeup, where she brings out the radiance in clients. Ala’s creative makeup artistry shines, and her warm demeanor is a hit with kids. Starting her journey with Shear Image in September 2023, she also indulges her passion for skiing and the great outdoors, perfectly complementing her adventurous spirit.

Sierra completed her hairstyling program at Niagara College in April 2024 and joined Shear Image Salon in November 2023. She especially enjoys updos, event styles, curls, and color services, bringing creativity and skill to every client. Under the guidance of our stylist Elisa, Sierra is excited to enhance her expertise in curly haircuts and looks forward to helping clients embrace their natural curls.

Outside the salon, Sierra leads an adventurous and vibrant life. She loves immersing herself in books, exploring new destinations, and seeking thrills through zip-lining. An avid animal lover, she finds joy and inspiration in her furry friends, bringing that same passion and warmth to her work in the salon.
