I'm Jess, Industry Hair Co.'s Contrast Colour Specialist. I graduated from La Luma Hair Academy in 2012 and have been working in the industry since.

​

Like many people, when I was 17, I didn't know what I wanted to do after high school. So off I went to the University of Guelph. Long story short... I hated it & 2 months later, I dropped out. I spent the rest of that year saving money and going through some growing pains. I knew I needed a plan B, so my bright idea was to invest some of my time exploring something I always enjoyed doing for myself, hair. I was the girl who used to put velcro rollers in her hair at the ripe old age of 13, I was the girl who begged to have highlights put in before I even hit puberty, and I was the girl who would use her paycheck money to buy clip in extensions to wear to a highschool party. I enrolled in hair school the September of 2011, and that was it for me!

​

More recently, I gained some newfound passions to fill my spare time in my life. If you know me, you certainly know about my main gal, Brandy. I rescued her five years ago from West Virginia & she's the best thing to happen to me in a long time. She's a menace at the dog park, but she has the biggest heart and loves to snuggle.

​

Don't worry, though; she's not my whole personality now; I also love chatting about travelling, exercising, my shopping addiction and all things pop culture.

​

You can also find my scrunchies on the shelves of IHC; I love to sew, and scrunchies and headbands seemed like a no-brainer to me. 

​

Hope to see you in the salon soon,
