Two North Vancouver hairstylists are among the best in the Canadian beauty industry.
Amber George, owner and creative director of Verve Hair Lounge in Lower Lonsdale, won the B.C. Salon Stylist of the Year Award at the 2015 Canadian Hairdresser Mirror Awards, held April 18 in Toronto. That same evening, Dana Lyseng, owner and creative director of Supernova Salon, also located in Lower Lonsdale, was named Colourist of the Year. The annual Mirror Awards, presented by Canadian Hairdresser magazine, celebrate creative achievements in the salon industry. Each year, hairdressers from across the country are invited to submit a photographic collection of their work, which is then judged by industry professionals. This year, finalists from the North Shore included Andree Rodrigues and Matthew Vanity of Zazou Salon Spa, both shortlisted for Newcomer of the Year, and Travis Battaglia of Supernova Salon, a contender in the Multicultural category.
