Our Stylists

Candice Grace

OWNER & MASTER STYLIST

Candice Grace

Zodiac Sign: Aquarius ♒︎

Your Journey in Hair: I've always been the one to work on my friend's hair and makeup, even from a young age. My journey in the beauty industry began at Marvel College in Red Deer, where I initially enrolled for makeup. However, it was the college director who saw something in me and encouraged me to explore hairstyling. Although I had self-doubt, the unwavering support of that director convinced me to return. Fast forward 16 years, and I've been passionately creating beautiful hair for my clients. Co-founding a salon with Stephaine ignited a new drive in my career, and I now find immense fulfillment in mentoring and guiding our stylists. Embracing the opportunity to support the next generation in our industry is truly rewarding.

Deathbed Meal: Earls Dynamite Rolls with a Chicken Santa Fa Salad and a side of Cheesecake.

Favourite Pastime: Outside of hair I like finding new things to do. I have recently taken up reading tons of self-help books, finding new recipes on TikTok and teaching myself how to cook. Yoga is my next adventure!

STEPHAINE HELSBY

OWNER & MASTER STYLIST

STEPHAINE HELSBY

Zodiac Sign: Libra ♎︎

Your Journey in Hair: My hair journey started in high school when I took a job at a hair salon and my love for hair blossomed! I have spent the last 13 years working full-time behind the chair. I have taken my passion for hair to a whole new level and have opened up B&B Hair Co. with Candice to share and teach my love for hair to other like-minded individuals. I enjoy sharing my passion and making my customers' hair dreams come true.

Deathbed Meal: Turkey Dinner

Favourite Pastime: Horses, Horses, Horses! I have two lovely horses that I spend most of my time riding and showing. They get me outdoors and keep me present.

LANA SCHMIDT

MASTER STYLIST

LANA SCHMIDT

Zodiac Sign: Capricorn ♑︎

Your Journey in Hair: I clearly had a passion for hair from a very young age. My Barbies always had the best hair! Watching my Mom do her hair and makeup everyday, definitely influenced my love for all things beauty. From there, I started hair in Grade 9 Cosmetology then continued hair at Marvel College in Edmonton. I continue doing hair because of the confidence one new hairstyle can give a person. Watching people completely transform internally, and see it translate externally is something that will never get old for me.

Deathbed Meal: Seafood! Feed me all the scallops and oysters.

Favourite Pastime: I love photography and would like to study it more. Also, spending time with my family and friends is the most important to me.

SENIOR STYLIST

JADYN PIDSADNY

Zodiac Sign: Taurus ♉︎

Your Journey in Hair: My hair journey started when I was in Grade 10 Cosmetology - not having any plans for the future, and trying to figure it all out. I found a love and passion for hair, and that’s when I decided to become a hairdresser. I graduated high school and got my first job in a salon folding towels and sweeping hair. From there I attended MC College, graduating in 2020 and starting my journey here at B&B Hair Co.

Deathbed Meal: If I was in my deathbed I would want my last meal to be a mountain of perogies!! With all the fixings.

Favourite Pastime: In my spare time, I like to take my cat for walks in his stroller, do arts and crafts, and practice my makeup skills.

SYDNEY HUTTON

JUNIOR STYLIST

SYDNEY HUTTON

Zodiac Sign: Capricorn ♑︎

Your Journey in Hair: My hairstyling journey really started in my High school Cosmetology class. At first, I took the class to fill my schedule, but I quickly learned that wasn’t true. I really enjoyed the class. I was able to be creative with what I did and I enjoyed the learning part of it as well. I continued to take it all the way to Grade 12 when my teacher handed me a list of schools I could attend. The following Fall I attended Est Elle Academy, and I’m super glad that I did!

Deathbed Meal: A big bowl of Chicken Alfredo pasta

Favourite Pastime: If I'm not in the salon, I'm either listening to music or reading.
