I hope everyone enjoyed the great summer we had. I had the opportunity to attend the Paul Mitchell The Gathering in Las Vegas, Nevada this past July 16 and 17. It was very inspiring and if you have a chance, I would encourage anyone to go. It was one of the largest events I have ever attended with at least 3,000-plus in attendance. The event was very well organized, to move a crowd from breakfast to main stage, assigned classes, back to a served lunch, then to classes and back for a main stage show without a glitch was amazing. The main message of the the show was “I’Mpossible”, and it was presented by different successful individuals about their personal success stories. The energy from everyone was of believing in ourselves to do better and be the best that we can be. It was amazing the amount of people coming together for inspiration, whether you work alone or in a big salon. And as for the Paul Mitchell team, it was about sharing and caring in what they do to inspire you to do your best. I was glad I went and would encourage anyone to go to this annual event.
The classes were great, but even better was the positive environment for engaging and inspiring people!
“Building a better business”
Mostly everyone seems to want to grow in business. Salon owners and managers will spend a lot of time and money in marketing research and promotional opportunities. The priority is focusing on the “how to” of growth for new or potential clients, repeat clientele retention, rebooking and pre-booking success, pricing increases, service up-sales, rebooking, and retail sales. Most often, salon owners are looking for opportunities to inspire, motivate, train or educate their employees in technical skills, people skills, and sales to support and grow a successful business.
With good intentions of wanting to stay competitive and do your best as a company and a leader, sometimes we can find ourselves trying to lead and direct, but sometimes we forget to listen. Everyone wants to be recognized, valued, and contribute. If we don’t take the time to listen and only direct staff, we are not maximizing the true potential of the employee.
All of the above is important for building a better business, but what may help the salon owner or manager is in the order in which we prioritize the
importance of those factors. Perhaps our first and most important priority is to listen and make sure employees feel valued, not just once but on an ongoing basis. Sounds easy, but all too often it is taken for granted or forgotten. Often too focused on leading, you forget to look back and see if they are following. It is true that everyone wants to be heard, valued and appreciated. When they do, they have a sense of pride and ownership in their actions and are proud to be a part of your team. The technical skills, people skills, and sales training would be viewed as more of a personal investment for themselves rather than another mandatory workshop.
Looking at the big picture, invest in your employees, take the time to get to know them, value them and listen, they can have some amazing ideas!
More importantly, taking the time to listen is one of the best qualities of a good leader. It could not only be the least expensive investment in your business, but also your most rewarding.
Build a better business value and invest your time getting to know your employees. In return they will value you and be more on board for building a better business! $

As of July 1, the Manitoba government has slapped a seven per cent sales tax on most hairstyling and spa services. It’s a tax that amounts to an administrative nightmare for some members of the Manitoba Hairstylists’ Association (MHA), according to Mary Elliott, president of the MHA.
Moreover, the tax – which exempts haircuts under $50 – directly discriminates against women because most women’s services bill out at more than $50, says Susannah Simes, owner of Forever Young Spa Boutique.
Both have appealed to the provincial government to revisit the tax process in the interest of making the system easier to administer and more equitable.
“Our question is not about whether to be taxed or not taxed, but how to implement the tax,” says Elliott. “It’s very unclear. A $30 haircut can be taxed, or a $30 haircut cannot be taxed. If I put it with a $30 colour, then it gets taxed. It’s about the clarification of the tax; to make it simple and to make it fair. Whether I pay five dollars for a haircut or whether I pay $100, I should pay tax on the five dollars or the $100,” she explains, pointing to other areas of inconsistencies.
“I am hoping they will clarify it to make it easier to administer,” she said, adding that the current system may be difficult for the association’s 130 members to explain to clients and could lead to errors in collecting the tax, which are mistakes that could result in a penalty for the business.
“It’s an administrative nightmare. How do you explain it to your clients?” says Elliot.
“Today, 70 per cent of salons don’t have receptionists,” adds Elliott. “They have the stylists go up to the till, and it depends on the stylist to ring the sale in, so whether they’re even applying that tax correctly is a question, and there can be a penalty at the end of the year if it’s not done correctly.”
Simes says the levy has to be more evenly balanced so that it is not women who are paying the majority of the sales tax.
“I’m not saying this is a tax on women, but I’m saying realistically the people who are bearing the weight of this are women. The only exemption is a haircut under $50, and there is no man’s cut that is over $50,” she says.
“In the spa industry, we have mostly women clients. They are calling this a luxury tax. Why then are they not taxing tee times; balance it off a little. Have everybody share in the tax,” she adds.
“It’s an unwise tax, and it doesn’t solve any problems.”
Simes, who has owned her spa business for 14 years, says she is not “anti-tax” but she wants to raise awareness about the issue. She planned to collect up to 6,000 signatures on petitions around the city which she submitted this past September.
The MHA has submitted a letter to the premier’s office outlining its concerns.
Kristina Poturica, owner of Rituals in Hair and Skin, also objects to the “inequities” the tariff will create among competing businesses “because in some businesses, their clients will never see that tax.”
She agreed that the current system is confusing.
“If the government sees a haircut as an essential service, then they probably should not have taxed it at all. Why are they putting a $50 exemption on it? Either we charge the tax, period, or we don’t. If you consider it essential, then it should be non-taxable.”
In an industry where the majority of clients are female, Poturica said it will be women who are paying the majority of the levy.
MLA Myrna Driedger called the tax “an unfair attack on women who would be the hardest hit by this tax grab.”
Finance Minister Stan Struthers was not available for comment, but an email response from Manitoba Finance stated that tax cuts delivered since 1999 “save Manitobans more than $1.2 billion in taxes this year, and Manitoba continues to have the second-lowest PST rate in the country.” $

When Wendy Schalk-Cooke had the option of taking either accounting (her parent’s choice) or hairstyling (her choice) in Grade 10 at Lord Selkirk Regional Comprehensive Secondary School, she chose the latter.
“When it became Grade 10 and you had to make the decision, I wanted to take hairstyling but my parents wanted me to take accounting because my sister took it and got a good job. They ended up putting me in accounting, but I skipped class and was always in the hairstyling lab. Because of that they let me enroll in the program.”
Schalk-Cooke, a licensed hairstylist and esthetician, is a hairstyling teacher at the Arts & Technology Centre (formerly known as the Louis Riel Arts & Technology Centre) in the Louis Riel School Division (LRSD), where she has taught students for the past six years. Prior to that, she taught at the Pollock School of Beauty for nine months (her first teaching job), R.B. Russell Vocational High School for 13 years, and Miles Macdonell Collegiate for five years.
After graduating from high school, Schalk-Cooke (who is originally from Petersfield, Manitoba) worked at Garden City Shopping Centre doing wigs. From there she moved to Martino’s Hairstyling (now located on McGregor Street) where she styled hair for clients and provided esthetic services. After finding that her days ran into weeks which ran into years she decided she wanted
more excitement and found herself at a crossroads;
either open her own salon or go into teaching.
“I decided to go into teaching so I went back to school
and thought that if I took the teaching course and didn’t
like it I can still open my own salon.”
After completing the teaching course at Red River
College, and just shy of receiving a degree from the
University of Manitoba (Schalk-Cooke had a young son
at the time, now 22), she went on to teach at the Pollock
School of Beauty (a private school), then made her way
into the public system at R.B. Russell Vocational High
School.
“It was a school with a lot of at-risk youth and they
taught me a lot and I taught them a little bit.”
After 13 years at R.B. Russell, where she also opened
the first esthetics program in a Manitoba public high
school (the course is now defunct), Schalk-Cooke
made the move to Miles Macdonell Collegiate, where
she taught in the hairstyling department and opened
a nail technology course (which is still running) until
December 2005 when she was contacted by the Arts &
Technology Centre (ATC). The school was interested in
starting a hairstyling program, and shortly after she met
with them she got hired on to spearhead the new course
and curriculum.

The hairstyling program at ATC officially opened in September 2006 with 22 hairstyling students, and in February 2007 the nail technology program launched. In September 2007 the school opened the skincare technology program.
Although Schalk-Cooke worked alone with the LRSD to develop the program and teaching space, the school later hired on four other instructors to teach in the various beauty programs.
Even when she’s not teaching, Schalk-Cooke reviews textbooks for Milady and was also once involved with the Vocational Teacher’s Association of Manitoba where she was vice-president, president, and past president for a number of years. Additionally, she is involved in Skills Manitoba and Skills Canada, where she co-chairs the Skills Manitoba Aesthetics competition with fellow ATC esthetics instructor Lucie Laurin.
Schalk-Cooke credits the Manitoba Hairstylists’
Association (MHA) with her success in
the industry and has been a member since 1981.
“My success in the industry is because of a lot of people who were
members of the MHA and I will always remember that. It’s important to remember
the people who helped me along the way and they are there to help you when you first start out, and to help
as you go through the profession.”
Although she has been teaching hairstyling for a number of years now, Schalk-Cooke doesn’t see herself ever fully stepping away from the profession – even after she retires.
“Hairstyling is a difficult thing to walk away from. Even when I started teaching in a public high school, I was expecting my son, attending classes at the U of M, and I was working at the Eaton’s hair salon, because when I was going to school I missed working so bad,” she says. “I missed it so much when I went back to teaching; it’s a part of your life, it’s hard to give up.” $

Executives may come and go, but the
backbone of the Manitoba Hairstylists’
Association (MHA) for the past 35 years
has been one person: Angie Unger.
Unger was originally hired on back in
1977 as the secretary/business agent for
the association.
“I fell into it. John Unger [Angie’s
husband] had been involved in the
association for many years and told me
that they were looking for somebody to
fill the position; since my background
was secretarial and office work, he
thought that I might be interested.
At the time I was expecting my first
daughter and was planning on being a stay-at-home mom for a while, so I figured it would give me something to do part-time,” says Unger, who took the commercial course at Elmwood High School and later worked at an insurance company, a credit company, a law firm, and as a typesetter for the University of Manitoba Printing Department.
“I had two daughters, Danielle and Carly [now 34 and 31 respectively], and my youngest was four, so John suggested that perhaps I would be interested in taking the hairstyling course so that I would be able to work part-time in the salon [John’s the Hair Designers]; but I
had always been interested in nails and
we had a manicurist that was leaving, so
it worked out perfect.”
Aside from manicures, pedicures, and
waxing, as well as her and her husband’s
personal business, Unger’s work for
the MHA is two-fold. Her many duties
include collecting membership dues,
collecting for the Blue Cross Group Plan,
paying bills, taking association-related
phone calls, attending all the meetings,
minutes, financial reports and the
budget for the executive meetings and
the AGM, coordinating info to put on the
website and much more.

Clippings Fall 2012
Over the past 35 years, she has many
fond memories of the MHA; including
helping organize complimentary
hairstyling stations during the Pan Am
Games in Winnipeg in 1999. She also is
proud to have been involved in some of
the competitions the MHA set up, the
fundraisers and golf tournaments that
were for charity, and the launching of
the MHA’s official publication Clippings,
thanks to all her hard work, Unger
was presented with the Outstanding
Member of the Year Award during the
MHA’s 2004 AGM.
“I wasn’t expecting it at all; I felt
honoured to receive the recognition.”
Thirty-five years is a long time to hold a position, but Unger says she didn’t do it for the remuneration (the secretary/treasurer business agent is the only paid position in the association). She hopes that the MHA will keep thriving and continue to get new members, which has been a constant challenge for the 72-year-old association.
“Hairstylists must realize the importance of having an association to belong to. There are many stylists out there that present some creative ideas at their first association meeting and then you don’t see them again,” she says. “The more members you have, the more membership dues you have and the
more money the association has to put on shows or classes. We don’t have a lot of fundraisers, we have one fundraiser which has been successful and that is selling Grey Cup lottery tickets, all of which money goes toward educational classes for our members.”
So what’s next for Unger? She plans on spending more time with her family, including her new granddaughter Teagan, and visiting her daughter Danielle, a teacher in Vancouver, more often. She will also be working at her business four days a week, perhaps taking some photography classes, and beginning some renovations at home.
She may have stepped away in September from a position she has held for the past 35 years, but Unger still plans on being involved with the association that she has seen grow since taking on the job in the ‘70s.
“I still plan on attending the meetings and stay in touch with the members. I have always looked forward to the social events such as bowling and barbeques. This is something I feel we need to get going once again. It’s one of the things I have enjoyed over the years, the social functions, as well as the educational classes.” $

When you step into Hair FX you are
instantly overcome with the warmness
of the quaint salon.
The River Heights studio is located
underneath the hustle and bustle of the
city’s famed Stafford and Grosvenor
intersection. Surrounded by boutiques,
yoga studios, and deliciously tempting
bistros, Hair FX is a few steps below
street level in a space that exudes
relaxation, comfort, and ease.
Located at 915 Grosvenor Avenue,
the 3,200-square-foot salon
recently celebrated its 16th year in
its underground location. They were
previously across the street on the
other side of Stafford in a much smaller
space for seven years.
“If you kicked out your feet at the
shampoo station, you kicked your
stylist [at the old location], our new
spot is quite the upgrade” says Michael
Larocque, spokesperson for Hair FX.
The salon boasts 18 employees and
features 13 cutting stations and 10
chemical stations. In addition to a
relaxing and peaceful reception area
where clients can wait on plush chaise
couches surrounded by product
information and relaxing elements like a
fireplace, the salon also has an outdoor
courtyard where clients can bask in
Mother Nature.
Comfort seems to be an underlying theme behind the salon as everything from the furniture to the colour scheme is relaxing. The salon features lots of natural lighting and an orange-red colour palette, bringing warmth to the overall ambiance. Over its 16-year residency at its current location, the look and feel has changed a few times, but it always seems to go back to warm undertones.
“Before we did this renovation we decided to do a spa feel – blues, taupes, greens, etc. It wasn’t ‘our’ feel though; it wasn’t dynamic,” says Larocque. “We started with warm colours before, maybe not as intense, but we went back to our roots.”

The hidden gem:

Those roots are all about creating a comforting experience for the client. The darker colours on the walls and in the décor present a more intimate experience for clientele. The earth tones also transcend into features of the salon, including an abundance of greenery and plant sculptures, as well as rough wood tables and bookcases, which juxtaposes the refined elegance of the whole space.
Hair FX also has a piece of Winnipeg history within its four walls. The man-made wood tables (created by Larocque’s father in law who is a master craftsman) are held up by table bases from the now-demolished Eaton’s department store on Portage Avenue. Larocque acquired the six cast-iron vintage pieces from a friend who bought them at an auction to use in her restaurant.
“I had a friend who owned a little restaurant and when she closed it she was selling them off. They are a piece of Winnipeg history, we are lucky to have them.”
In addition to the clean, simple lines of the interior, the Redken flagship salon is also impeccably spotless with each member of the staff ensuring that not a
speck of dust is found in the space.
Laundry is constantly done with capes and sinks being washed after every client. They also have cleaners come in once a week, as well as a regular cleaner on staff.
“You have to create that kind of work ethic; [cleaning] has to get done. If you think clients won’t notice the dirt in your salon, think again.”
Aside from creating a wonderful environment for clients to get services done, Hair FX is also an active member of the community. This was their third summer working with Rainbow Stage on wigs for their summer productions. They also do hair and wigs for Prairie Theatre Exchange, the Winnipeg Fringe Festival, and Dry Cold Productions. In addition, they provide hair services for the Winnipeg Blue Lightning Dance Team, as well as put on a major charity event for the Never Alone Foundation, which benefit individuals and families affected by cancer. Hair FX held their second annual A Midwinter Night’s Dream fashion show in January 2012.
“Sometimes we can become overwhelmed with the world. We watch terrible things happening in certain places and we feel we can’t fix it. We
might not be able to change the world, but we can make a difference in the community.”
Hair FX’s dedication to the community, as well as providing an intimate, comfortable experience for salon services, transcends into their subtle way of being the best salon they can be.
“I like to think of us as a hidden jewel. We aren’t out there in people’s faces; we are working class people doing the best job we can.” $

‘dye-ing’ over!Stuff we are
From wavy hair to taupe nails and everything in between, we may be adding some layers to our wardrobes but that doesn’t mean we are cooling down in the beauty department. The thermostat may be getting lower, but we love these hot products.
Living Proof Restore Mask TreatmentThe cool, crisp weather can dry out your hair, but luckily this mask will leave your locks looking fresh, soft, and manageable. Applying this intensive weekly treatment to your hair will increase strength and manageability, leaving hair soft, shiny, and smooth.$48 at Sephora.
Verge by One Bubble Wand Curling IronYes, this curler may look like something out of Fifty Shades of Grey; however, this nifty tool lets you perfect the imperfect curl by its unique shape. The bubbles provide constant, even heat for locking in styles and moisture, while the NG (nano gold) detoxifies the hair, leaving it healthy and manageable.SRP $100. One Styling products are available through International Beauty Services and Salon Centre.
Make Up For Ever Aqua CreamsGorgeous, high-quality pigments infused with mother of pearl particles give long-lasting wear in just one application. Not only are these great for being smudge-proof, but they are also waterproof, so you can sport them on your winter vacation, whether it’s skiing in
Whistler or scuba diving in the Mayan Riviera. $26 each at Sephora.

Many years ago, while in competition, Karl Schaible Sr. was challenged verbally by a very confident competitor who was certain that he would beat Schaible and win the Winnipeg hairstyling competition.
Schaible, a master hairstylist who made many contributions to the province’s hairstyling trade before his retirement in the late 1980s, said little, but he chose his daughter as a model to demonstrate his hair cutting technique. The girl had fine hair – not the kind of hair texture most stylists would choose to demonstrate their award-winning hairstyles.
“One of the judges, an American, made a comment that he had to be an idiot to choose a model with this kind of hair for competition,” says Karl Schaible Jr., speaking about his father’s long and distinguished career as a shop owner, mentor and member of the Manitoba Hairstylists’ Association.
Nevertheless, Schaible won the competition based on his “perfect” haircut.
It was a memorable moment in Schaible’s career and in many ways, the
story stands as a perfect metaphor for
Schaible’s legacy, which many describe
as one of dedication to his trade
founded in the strong core skills of his
profession.
“He was quiet, not an extrovert, but he
was able to get along with everybody;
he had quite a gentle manner with
them,” says his son, who is also a
master hairstylist, owner of Academy
Hair Studio in Winnipeg, and a third-
generation hairstylist.
Strong skills
A modest man who let his ability speak
for itself, the senior Schaible came
by his skills honestly, beginning in
Germany when he entered the trade at
the young age of 13.
“Karl came over from Germany with
a lot of skills you couldn’t find here,”
says John Unger, master judge with the
Manitoba Hairstylists’ Association and
friend and colleague for more than 35
years.
“Very early on, he was one of the first
persons making wigs and hairpieces in
Winnipeg, and that’s one of the reasons
I got to know him. Karl made some
hairpieces for me and a lot of them for
himself. And well beyond that, he was
very skilled in hair colouring and using
his tools. He was very talented.”
Schaible opened up his own shop in
Elmwood in the late 1950s, joined the
then-Manitoba Barbers Association,
and then later became a founding
member of the Manitoba Hairstylists’
Association. One side of the shop was
dedicated to the hairstyling business,
while the other housed the wig- making
part of the business.
He was dedicated to keeping abreast
of trends and techniques, and he often
returned to his native Germany to study
with top stylists and to keep informed
of trends in a part of the world where
many styles originated.
He won numerous trophies in
competition to attest to his abilities.
In Winnipeg, Schaible supported his
colleagues as a longtime member of the
Manitoba Hairstylists’ Association. He
could always be counted on to support
the association.
“When he did comment on association
matters, they were always intelligent
comments,” says Unger.
Makeup artist Alice Wiebe, who is
known simply as Alice to people in the
industry, credits Schaible with getting
her started in her career.
“He was quite willing to share his
knowledge with other people,” says
Alice, who learned makeup from
Schaible.
During her career working for theatre,
television and private industry, Alice
says the knowledge she gained from
Schaible has enriched her career
throughout life.
“He was very well known in the
industry, and I miss him.”
For his part, after his retirement,
Schaible said he missed working with
his clients.
Schaible died more than a year ago in
June of 2011, but some of the personal
and professional gifts he gave to the
trade he loved continue. $

24 ONEWhen Angie Hunt heard about a contest from Redken to style
the hair for Canadian Hairdresser magazine, she never thought
that she would be a regional winner two years in a row.
Hunt, an elite award-winning stylist at Chatters Salon and
Beauty Supply on Empress, is a two-time regional winner of
the Redken Cover Competition, where seven semi-finalists
from across Canada are invited to Toronto’s Redken Exchange
to compete in a $10,000 fashion photo shoot competition
with mentors from the fashion industry. The grand prize? Style
the cover of Canadian Hairdresser magazine for the December/
January 2013 issue, a trip for two to New York City to attend
training at Redken’s Exchange on 5th, and a photo shoot
with Flare magazine. In addition, the winner will be named as
Redken Session’s Hairstylist of the Year.
Hunt travelled to Toronto in 2011 to compete in the challenge
and she recently returned from Canada’s version of the Big
Apple this summer after being a regional winner once again
for the 2012 contest. The $10,000 photo shoot included
working with high-profile stylists and artists including fashion
photographer John Van der Schilden, who recently shot the
July cover of Elle Canada with Carrie Underwood; Rimmel
London makeup artist Vanessa Jarman, who has worked on
Lady Gaga and Adam Lambert; fashion guru stylist Jeremie
Cote of Pascal & Jeremie Concepts; and Redken Global
performing artist and freelance session stylist Brent Borreson.
“The team that they put together for you is amazing,” says
Hunt, who has been a hairstylist since 1997. “You feel like
you’re a celebrity stylist. They really spoil you and let you have
your vision and work with you. Jeremie had $40,000 worth of
jewelry to try on. They wanted an edgy photo for the cover so
they really delivered.”
In addition to being a two-time regional winner for the
Cover Competition, Hunt was also the 2011 Chatters Redken
Makeover Challenge Stylist Choice Award winner, where over
450 hairstylists from Chatters Canada voted for their favourite
before and after shot. The prize consisted of a personalized
trophy, $1,000 in styling tools from Chatters Canada, a $300
Redken Education gift certificate, and media exposure.
“It was overwhelming; people were coming up to me to take
photos. My client had never even coloured her hair before so I
asked her if she wanted to be a hair model.”
Recently, Hunt was announced as the winner of the 2012
Fashion Week Stylist contest, where she will be working
backstage as part of the Redken Stylist Team at the upcoming
2012 Toronto Fashion Week in October.

“I had to come up with a look that I thought be suitable for
fashion week,” says Hunt, who will be travelling to Toronto
in the fall on an all-expenses paid trip. “I’m not sure if they
are going to use my look; they are going to present it to the
designers and they will decide.”
Although she didn’t really get into competitions until
recently, her persistence and sheer talent has paid off. Hunt’s
advice for hairstylists who want to start competing? Just go
for it.
“Just capture the moment. It’s amazing what comes out of
you and it’s okay if everything doesn’t follow as exactly as
planned. Just go with the flow. Trust your vision and don’t be
scared. Throw your work out there; I wish I would have done
this in the beginning of my career.” $

The lazy days of summer are over and it’s time to get back to busy this fall. September is typically the month you see the momentum picking up in your salon while men
and women are back to their usual busy routines, including regular salon visits. For salons, this often means having to overbook clients or even turn them away from their preferred appointment
time. This does not have to be the case with Schwarzkopf
Professional’s IGORA COLOR10 - the first professional permanent
colour in just 10 minutes that delivers perfect coverage, vibrant shine, and
outstanding care in less time than it takes to finish a blowout. With its fast timing, IGORA COLOR10 enables you to service up to three times more clients in the same amount of time. That’s what we call fast money! On the other hand, it helps you attract new clients on the go with unique fast
services.
“IGORA COLOR10 offers stylists and clients a
new world of colour opportunities,”
says
Schwarzkopf Professional education manager Susan Boccia. “IGORA COLOR10 can be used as a creative tool for colourists,” she explains. “They can create exciting and unique colour placements with an assortment of 28 shades to choose from. The Speed Lift + shades in IGORA COLOR10 mean that even blonde hair can be processed in as little as 10 minutes.”
Building new styles with colour block
You’ve most likely heard about the hottest trend in fashion this year: colour blocking. This means pairing two to three solid and vibrant colours together to create a harmoniously on-trend look. Of course, Schwarzkopf Professional thinks this is perfect for hair trends as well. IGORA COLOR10 allows you to designate vibrant, bold blocks of colour anywhere your creativity and client will allow!
“This fall, hairstylists should consider adding some dimension to a classic bob with a block of darker colour in the perimeter to accentuate the existing colour,” suggests Boccia.
Be playful with the hide and peek fringe
If the new colour block trend is not for your client, then perhaps the hide and peek fringe will, well, pique their interest. The hint of colour can be hidden or shown off depending on how your client wants to wear her fringe. It is also a great option for clients who have had the same cut for a
Service up to three times more clients in the same amount of time

while – love it- but may like to try something different with colour instead.
“Adding a few highlights to the fringe can spice up your current look,” says Boccia.
New for fall 2012, Schwarzkopf Professional has two new IGORA COLOR10 express colour techniques to inspire you to work your artistic magic with clients on the go. Ask your Schwarzkopf Professional sales consultant for more details. $
Ways iGora Color10 can improve your business:• Less processing time means happier clients• Less processing time means room to fit two to three clients in the usual hair colour time slot• Offer busy clients opportunity to colour hair during lunch break or before work• Offer colour service to new moms or moms on the go• Offer clients afraid of trying colour, a hide and peek fringe to start off with

special guest presentation by industry
icon Michael O’Rourke. In 2011, O’Rourke

Award at the North American Hairstyling
Awards for his exceptional contributions
to the hair and beauty industry. He is the
creator of such innovative products as
Michael O’Rourke Hair and Rock Your

done by the biggest names in hairstyling.
No stranger to the awards, MC College
Winnipeg has produced two finalists for
Student Hairstylist of the Year. Last year’s
finalist, Holly Hui is currently working at
Elan.

visit from legendary photographer Babak.

his winning NAHA images and giving
important tips for creating a successful
NAHA entry. At the award ceremony the
previous night, four of the winning stylists
used Babak as their photographer of
choice including the Hairstylist of the Year
winner.

exciting impression of the industry for
new students. MC College Group believes

For many people, getting one’s hair done
is an intimate experience. And, like any
relationship, trust, attention, and respect
should inspire every act—or snip.
Ultracuts, the largest privately owned
hairstyling chain in Western Canada,
is proud to celebrate their “pearl”
anniversary this year. For 30 years the
Canadian operation has successfully
fostered relationships with their clientele,
and built a reputation on convenience,
consistency, friendliness, and affordability.
“All of our services are a la carte,” explains
Al Edmondson, Ultracuts regional
manager, when asked what sets the
business apart. “We are a walk-in service,
but we do accept appointments for
chemical services.”
In 1982, the company started with a
single salon in Saskatoon, SK. Today, 54
Canadian locations and two American
locations continue the Ultracuts’ people-
first philosophy, and, as the regional
manager confirms, the company is
always looking for opportunities to open
more salons.
Edmondson, who is based in the
Ultracuts head office in Winnipeg, is
pleased with the company’s reputation
among the hair styling industry. Ultracuts
has been recognized amongst their
peers for their convenient locations,
experienced stylists and affordable
products. As recent recipients of the
Consumer Choice Business Excellence
Award 2012 for hair care—in addition
to their being seven-time recipients
in Manitoba, three-time recipients in
Alberta, and two-year recipients in the
newly formed Saskatchewan sector—
clients can’t help but take note.
In fact, clients are not the only ones attracted to Ultracuts—the stylists are as well.
“We let a newer stylist start to build a clientele immediately mentored by a journyman stylist,” says Edmondson. “Instead of going to a salon where you start by sweeping floors or doing towels, at Ultracuts you immediately start to gain a clientele. And the more clients you have, the more money you make.”
Stylists can spend their entire career with Ultracuts, and have—from right out of high school up to 70-years-old. Edmondson, himself, has dedicated 24 years to company. It is the room to make changes and plans for the future that attracted the regional manager to the company. As Edmondson agrees, Ultracuts promotes a work life balance that caters to the individual.
“We have a formula for our salons, but each salon is run by a manager. We have standards and procedures, but within those standards, it’s the managers of the salons that make them what they are,” says Edmonson.
In high-traffic areas like strip malls, shopping centres, and Wal-Marts, Ultracuts salons are popping up across the country. The 54 locations are divided between three provinces and one state—Saskatchewan, 18; Manitoba, 18; Alberta, 16; and, North Dakota, two. Undeniably, the high-traffic areas bode well for stylists who wish to promptly establish a clientele.
At Ultracuts, hair care services offered are the norm—styles, cuts, updos, perms, colouring, styling, facial waxing, roller sets, curling, and flat ironing. Walk-ins are always welcome and wait times are short. Discounts are regularly offered on all products and services and include the popular no-tax Tuesdays, a 60-plus seniors’ discount which is offered everyday (this discount doubles on Wednesday), and a 10 per cent discount for all post-secondary students and military families.
Superior product lines such as the Schwarzkopf colour line (which Ultracuts has carried for 25 years), Paul Mitchell, American Crew, and Biolage are available, as well as Ultracuts’ own product lines: Urban Rituals, Ultracare, and Swag’r, the new men’s line.
“Becoming a licensed stylist with Ultracuts has its benefits as well,” shares Edmondson. “We offer competitive, above-average wages and opportunity to make product commissions (the highest in the industry). You will continue to see annual wage reviews and increases. And we create opportunities for our stylists by offering free educational seminars and examination preparation for apprentices. We want to see everyone have a successful and long-term career at Ultracuts.”
