Sylvie Prud’homme. Sylvie started off in the fine arts before making the switch to hair and is now the co-owner of this hip Toronto salon. Once she changed careers in the early 2000s, her skills quickly earned notice. It helped that one of her early mentors was Vidal Sassoon, arguably the world’s most respected and recognized name in hairstyling. Politicians, actors, singers and TV producers have her on speed dial.
