Ally Thomson

If you had to describe yourself in one word, what would it be?

POSITIVE. I’m positive, passionate and extremely eager to learn! When I'm passionate about something I positively give it my all. I've been a stylist for 9 years and continue to educate myself + watch other stylists to study what they do differently or what I could do differently. There is always room for growth in my opinion.

What inspired you to become a hair stylist?

Growing up, I loved going to the hair salon! The vibes were always exciting and everyone worked as a team which I thought was a cool thing to be apart of. As a kid, I loved watching clients reactions when they swung around in the chair for the final result. As a stylist now, seeing their reaction is my favorite part of my job!

After being a stylist for almost a full decade, what has been your favorite hair project, thus far?

I love when a client is going through a transitional life stage and is ready to switch it up! I embrace the creative freedom every chance I get!

What is your favorite or least favorite thing as a stylist?

Embracing the art of the industry, for sure. I love being creative and when clients say "do whatever you want, I trust you" - it's an honor and always a really fun challenge.
