Cooper
Hi! I’m Cooper (they/them). I have been working as a professional hairstylist for 8 years since my training in 2017. Some of my favourite things to do behind the chair are curly cuts, shags, mullets, lived-in natural textured styles, blonding, seamlessly blended balayage, punchy vivid colours, contemporary barbering, personalized razor cuts, kids’ cuts (I love working with youth!), and gender-affirming haircuts. I view each service as a collaboration with my clients to fully realize an aesthetic look that blends lifestyle with a unique creative vision. I value listening to my clients, making sure they feel heard and comfortable in my chair. I’m also passionate about merging mutual aid, organizing, and hair services. In Vancouver, where I was mentored by Shaunn at Big Joy Barber & Salon, I helped organize fundraisers and mutual aid events to help people with barriers access hair services. I’m excited to bring similar initiatives to Montreal in the future! Drawing on inspiration from fashion, music, and rave culture, my art school background informs my design sensibilities and my craft. When not at work, I enjoy baking, music, and going to live shows.
Petra
Hi there! I’m Petra (they/she) and I’m deeply passionate about all things human, science, care and creativity related to hair. I completed my technical training in 2020 and since then have grown to truly discover a passion for the chemical and technical art of hair colouring and cutting. I love bringing that knowledge to life through creativity and collaboration with my clients. I center my craft around connecting with people, and I want my work to reflect their worlds; my chair being a space to welcome all people: genders, ages and hair alike. Ranging from edgier to more classic cuts, long hair to short, striking or lived-in colours, bright blondes, vivids or naturals, my appreciation for hair knows no boundaries. I build my services around quality time, transparency and authenticity which allows my clients to receive an experience in which they feel heard, understood and confident about their hair project. When I’m not behind the chair, you’ll find me enjoying nature and outdoor activities or at home crafting, reading, playing music and tending to my plants. My hobbies and interests deeply fuel my inspiration for all types of hair projects, and I love to merge those worlds together.
