I got dip nails done by Annie for my engagement shoot - she is awesome, so friendly and great at doing nails! I couldn’t stop staring and photographing my nails after. Shannon is also the only person I entrusted with doing my balayage on my hair since moving back to Ottawa! As someone with Asian hair, she got me to my dream shade of ashy bronde and I am in desperate need of a touch up. I am so happy you are both opening up a space together!!

I went to Shannon to colour my hair for my first time 5 years ago and haven’t trusted anyone else with my hair since. Her love for her craft and care for her clients are above and beyond. She always listens to what her clients want while staying true to techniques that maintain healthy hair. I can’t wait for Fika to open up so that I can see Shannon’s passion and creativity come to life in her very own salon.

Whenever I am in Ottawa, I always, always get my nails done by Annie. Her work is precise, clean, and never a disappointment. Not only am I impressed by her great craftsmanship, but also her mannerism. She would actually ask about your day, how life’s been, if you would like some water or tea, etc. It’s always a pleasant experience with her and I hope others can see how great she is as well!
