Stylists

Owning Shear Image Salon for the past 28 years has been one of my pride and joys. Working in the hair industry for over 30 years, I am a trained Schwarzkopf Colour Specialist and DevaCurl Professional.

Every day I strive to learn from my clients and my surroundings to be the best that I can be. Life is a journey and we always have room to grow and learn!

It has been -and continues to be- the love of my life to connect with my clients and help them feel beautiful and confident about themselves. I love all hair types and textures and am confident I will give you the cut and colour that will make you feel your best. If you wish to join my Hair Tribe, reach out and book an appointment!

“Helping clients embrace and love their natural hair texture is one of my favorite things. Seeing their confidence grow when they have a haircut that works and when they learn techniques to style their own curls brings me so much joy.”

A self-proclaimed “product junkie,” Elisa has a passion for hair products and finding the best ones for your hair texture. She especially enjoys working with natural curly hair textures and has taken education in curly hair cutting.

Elisa has been assisting and working reception on breaks since her high school days. In May 2020, she graduated from the University of Tulsa with B.F.A. in graphic design. Elisa is currently in school for hair at Niagara College and has recently finished her 1st year. Along with her apprenticeship, she runs our marketing, retail and guest services.

From blunt bobs to icy white highlights and long rainbow locks- I have cut and coloured it all!”

She prides herself in keeping up to date with trends to better work with clients and create unique looks they love.

“I am excited to be back in the hair industry! After kids and running my family’s floral business, I am thrilled to be back making people feel beautiful.”

Andrea received her education alongside owner Deanine at Laurenzo’s School of Hair Design in Hamilton. After raising three beautiful children and running her family’s floral business she joins us as a hairstylist and receptionist! Andrea’s natural ability to make people feel welcome and special makes her an asset to our team. She has a passion for doing senior hair. Andrea is available for perms, and ladies’ haircuts. 

“Happiness is a new hairstyle! My goal is to make everyone feel as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside and share the happiness it makes me feel!”
