Gina Audin - Owner & Stylist

Gina is a seasoned stylist with over 20 years of salon experience. She specializes in blonde hair. If you are a blonde (or want to be a blonde), she's your girl! Gina's passion for creating healthy, shiny, beautiful hair continues to grow each year she is behind the chair. She also specializes in hair extensions, keratin treatments, and grey coverage. She has a strong skill set when it comes to colors that will compliment your skin tone, and shapes that will accent your facial features as well. Gina places high value on listening to her clients, understanding their needs and respecting their hair. She calls this her "heart job". Each client that sits in her chair fills her heart with so much gratitude. She loves how she gets to make women feel, even more than the colors she paints on their heads. When Gina is not at work or in the classroom keeping up with the latest trends, to be the best she can be for her clients, you can find her hanging with her husband and their 8 year old little boy, Hudson. Most of their time is spent on the ice cheering their son on or up in the Thousand Islands at their cottage. You can find her and take a glimpse of her latest work:

CAROL HANKIN

Carol has been a practicing Licensed Esthetician for over 18 years. Her goal has always been to address her clients’ skin care concerns and objectives. She is passionate about assisting her clients in creating their vision for their skin and creating healthier, smoother, luminous, more even toned and glowing skin. She is a great listener and through asking questions will determine the best course of treatment in the treatment room and at home. She will analyze the clients’ skin each and every time they come in for a service; never assuming that the skin is the same. Climate, everyday stress or life- style impacts skin.

She has attended numerous product and technology trainings to keep well informed and provide the best treatment for the client. She has researched amazing skin care for her clients based upon longevity of the company, research and development and clinical results tested only on humans. These products are designed to be biomimetic so that the key actives are recognized by the skin to create change and bring about results and not just sit on the surface.

Her treatments are an example of her attention to detail. She loves assisting the clients in achieving their skin care goals but also to be totally relaxed after treatment. The clients are welcomed by a warmed bed with a hand and arm massage with warming mitts applied. She will often utilize hot stones and cold spoons during massage if time permits. She uses essential oils to further calm and soothe while soft relaxing music plays in the background. Regardless of the treatment on that day, you will be sure to always get her best each and every time. 

When Carol is not in her treatment room, she enjoys spending time with her family and her two dogs. She enjoys reading, spinning on her Peloton, lifting weights, gardening and preparing delicious food for family and friends.
