We're happy to introduce you to our amazingly talented team
here at Mystique Hair Design.
Each member of our team has been purposefully chosen because of their particular skill set. All Stylists have graduated from hair school and have successfully passed Mystique's own Protégé Program, while our Protégés are currently being trained through the program.
STEPHANIE
OWNER + CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Stephanie realized her passion and skill for beauty when she picked up her first pair of scissors in 1997. She is highly trained, having attended London School of Hair in Vancouver and continuing her education constantly, achieving numerous certifications since she opened Mystique’s doors back in 2005.
Stephanie’s charismatic and loving personality defines Mystique. Not only did Stephanie design Mystique from the ground up, she is constantly designing everyday with her clients. Her belief in constant training and advanced classes sets her apart from many salon owners in the industry. Her constant vision for Mystique inspires her staff and clients as does her dedication to the community. Steph has an amazing ability to motivate young stylists and is often asked to speak at local training schools. Mystique is not just her business, it’s her family.
Stephanie’s advanced cutting and colour knowledge has been recognized internationally through various competitions and she shares that knowledge with the team she leads at Mystique. She not only brings strong leadership to the salon, but a joy that feeds the creative passion of those around her.
BRANDIE
OPERATIONS MANAGER
Brandie has the most fun and energetic personality, with talent far beyond our wildest dreams. Although she is an exceptional Hairstylist Brandie no longer works behind the chair and has taken a more administrative role in Mystique.
Brandie joined Mystique in Dec 2009, bringing with her a wealth of experience. With an exhaustive list of international trend and advanced hair classes under her belt, Brandie stepped away from doing hair in May of 2023 after a Breast Cancer diagnosis. With treatments under belt and now Cancer FREE we have welcomed Brandie back in a new administrative role.
Brandie loves coming to work every day and cherishes the collaborative and creative environment that boasts a welcoming atmosphere for both staff and their clientele.
