Slowly, the look starts to take shape.
More colour. More layering. More structure. More texture.
At this stage, I think it’s important not to try to control everything. Sometimes the most interesting results happen when you dare to change direction along the way and respond to what you see in front of you.
In other words:
“Trust the process… even when the process looks slightly questionable.”
We’re getting there.

Every final look starts somewhere…
This is the beginning. Not glamorous yet, not perfect — but for me, this is exactly where the creative process starts.
For this look, I played with colour, structure and layering. No completely fixed end result, but curiosity, experimentation and the freedom to discover what happens along the way.
Because sometimes you first have to think, “Where on earth is this going?” before it starts to become interesting.
“Sometimes you have to create without knowing exactly where you’ll end up.”
Let’s see where this goes…

Another special moment in an already incredible year.
I’m incredibly honoured to be named a Semi-Finalist for International Colourist at the Canadian Hairstylist of the Year Awards — the CONTESTA Awards.
For me, colour has never been just about technique. It’s about creating emotion, dimension and character. About bringing colour, shape, texture and light together to create an image with its own identity.
To have that vision recognised on an international stage means a great deal to me.
And as always, work like this is never created alone. It comes to life when different creative disciplines, ideas and talents meet.
A huge thank you to my incredible team:
Photography
Make-up
Styling
Your craftsmanship, creativity and trust make it possible to transform an idea into something we can be proud of.
And a very special thank you to my partner in crime,. Your support and endless creative possibilities give me the freedom to experiment, push boundaries and translate what I see in my mind into reality. Having the right tools, colours and products at my fingertips means I can simply keep creating — without limits.
Now we wait for the finals… 🇨🇦
But whatever comes next, having our work recognised amongst international talent is already something very special.
Hair as identity. Crafted with vision.
This is the final result.
A look where colour, structure, texture and creativity come together. But this is only the final destination of a much bigger journey.
How does a look like this actually come to life? Where do you start, what happens along the way, and how much do you simply have to dare to let happen?
In the upcoming Reels, I’ll take you through the entire journey — from the first idea and preparation to the moment it all comes together on stage in Paris.
The final look is only half the story.
Let me take you through the journey.

Last Sunday was one of those days I will never forget.
At the iconic Folies Bergère in Paris, the day started with a very special moment: winning the Award for Best Hair Color Collection. A beautiful recognition of my work and my vision of color.
And then… it was time to take the stage.
For Keune Haircosmetics France, I had the opportunity to create a show around Color Muse and share my vision of color. Not simply color as a technique, but as expression, character and part of the complete image.
And I couldn’t be more proud of the team I had the pleasure of creating this with.
A huge thank you to the (France) team for their trust, and to Haute Coiffure Française for this very special award.
To my fantastic models: thank you for your energy, patience and trust.
thank you for the beautiful make-up and our amazing collaboration. It was so special to see how hair, make-up and styling came together as one complete image.
And of course,, for the styling and his incredible eye for the overall image.
A day filled with creativity, collaboration, recognition and, above all, so much gratitude.
Merci Paris.
Hair as identity. Crafted with vision.

What an incredibly special moment in Paris. Yesterday, at, I had the honour of receiving the award for Best Color Collection.
I’m incredibly proud, happy, and above all, very grateful.
A collection like this is never created alone. A huge thank you to my amazing team for bringing this vision to life with me:
Photography

And of course, a huge thank you to for the incredible support. Without your colours and products, I could never have created this collection exactly as I envisioned it.
It’s always special to start with an idea, create something together, and then receive such wonderful international recognition for the work.
So proud of what we created together. This award belongs to all of us.
Thank you, Haute Coiffure Française, for this wonderful recognition!

In the past few days the same question keeps popping up, and how do you feel? Well it starts to descend very slowly and that I really realize it
Hairdresser of the year 2022 OMG!!!!!
And this one is very special because this award brings me to the Hall of Fame.
When I started my own business at 19, I had set myself the goal of being among the top in our profession
Now so many years later with many ups and sometimes a down moment, this is a beautiful award and appreciation.
The fact that I can be in the small list of people who have inspired and motivated me enormously means a lot to me.
I still have so many plans and challenges that I'm going to dedicate myself to now.
I want to say a huge thank you to all the people who have supported, inspired and given me opportunities in this journey.
