🎉 Tomorrow is our birthday! It’s been 8 years of snips, styles, & smiles! In honour of our 8th birthday we asked @jessicaisontheavenue to share 8 things she is grateful for from her journey as a business owner, artist & leader:

#8-To all the unsung heroes—my friends and family—who provide that behind-the-scenes magic and unwavering support.

#7-SSBC - Shawna, you’re my guiding star, lighting the way to salon leadership and business success.

#6-We’re surrounded by a fantastic crew of awesome people in the mall, creating a vibrant community of small businesses that make every day feel like a celebration of local spirit and connection!

#5-The courage to open the salon, as it not only transformed my dreams into reality but also filled my life with passion, purpose, and a thriving community that inspires me every day.

#4-The incredible support from the industry for providing the education and supplies that keep this OG & my team inspired!

#3-The all mighty coffee bean. Enough said.

#2-To my fabulous clients who’ve allowed me the privilege of working my magic with your hair—every transformation we create together is not just a job; it’s a cherished memory that I hold close to my heart. Over these 22 incredible years, we’ve built a bond that goes far beyond the salon chair. I’ve been there for your epic celebrations & we’ve shared in the laughter and tears during life’s rollercoaster moments. I treasure the stories you’ve shared, the trust you’ve placed in me & the unique connection we’ve formed. Your unwavering loyalty & support inspire me daily, acting as a powerful boost during challenging times. I can’t express how much you mean to me!

#1-The thing I cherish most is my amazing team; the lessons I’ve learned from you all are truly one of my life’s greatest treasures! I feel so proud and grateful to witness your growth, celebrate our wins, and support each other through the tough times—honestly, there would be no Avenue Blonde without your hard work and happiness. Working with you is a blast, and you keep me accountable to be the best leader I can be, always showing up with energy and enthusiasm. I couldn’t ask for a better crew to share my craft with! ...
