Under the cherry trees
Mina grew up taking photos under the waterfront cherry trees every spring. The pink never left her.

Our story
Under the cherry trees
One chair, 2015
She opened with one chair on Alberta Street and a hand-lettered sign: "Pastels done gently."
The method
Two years of testing bond builders, toners and glazes until rose gold faded to peach instead of orange.
Division Street, 2019
A second studio opened in a sunny corner on Division, with a gloss bar that never empties.
Mississippi Avenue, 2023
The third studio hosts weekend pastel parties and the house's education programme.
The promise
Soft colors, healthy hair and a plan for week three. Always.
