Anne
After entering the nail industry six years ago, Anne opened The Pink Bar salon in 2024. Since then, the salon has continued to grow through an expanding team, loyal clientele, and opportunities that extend far beyond the salon walls.
Wanting to create more opportunities for nail artists and vendors in Canada, Anne co-founded The Nail Expo: a space designed to bring the industry together to connect, learn, shop, network, and feel inspired.
