Founded in May 2012 by Sophie Tessier and business partner Elisabeth Morello, La Rousse Espace Beauté is a bright, modern space where celebrity VIPs and neighbourhood locals flock for their beauty fix. “I’ve done a lot of TV in my career and I started in hair with one of the best in the industry, Anna Pacitto. This has been very instrumental in building a great client base”, says Tessier.
Located in the hipster neighbourhood, Mile End, the salon’s interior was custom designed by Serge Beaudry from Simka Construction, including whitewashed brick walls and painted hardwood and ceramic floors. “I wanted to create a soothing, minimal space with vivid splashes of colour to give it some character,” explains Beaudry. Montreal artist Suzanne Colello’s canvases also pepper the space with bright hues for a gallery atmosphere that is typical of the area.
The salon offers an interesting service: before- and after-photography for clients who wish to document their complete makeover. Last, but not least, the salon offers a 20 per cent discount to red-haired clients—which makes sense when the salon’s name includes the word “redhead.”{igallery id=9034|cid=69|pid=1|type=category|children=0|addlinks=0|tags=|limit=0}
