Fuelled with love for people and the beauty industry I’ve had the pleasure of servicing salon guests for the past 6 years.

I specialize in all things colour. Some of my favourite services to provide are blonding, balayage and lived-in colour.

Driven by education and a desire for knowledge, I’m always trying to achieve higher level of excellence in every service I perform.

I’ve recently began adventuring into the Bridal industry for formal styling and makeup artistry.

I’m passionate about the sustainability of Davines and their other core beliefs about the world around us.

My goal as a hairstylist is to ensure every client leaves feeling like the best version of themselves. Feeling beautiful on the inside and out.

When I’m not behind the chair I enjoy adventure experiences and exploring local cafés.

Shae’s passion for hair was evident at an early age, when she would spend recess braiding her friends' hair just as her grandma had done for her. In high school, she would do the hair for all of the talent shows and once she graduated, Shae chose Niagara College because it had the best hairstyling program. Shae’s greatest joy is helping others feel their very best through hair transformations and she has experienced it firsthand as she experiments with different ways to wear her own hair. Shae is excited to continue honing her craft with The Onyx Salon Collective (especially when it can be combined with her love of travel!).
