Currently – Kingston, Ontario

Hair care,
on your
terms.

Kate Martin brings over two decades of experience to Kingston, Ontario. Currently based at a local studio while she settles into the community, and always happy to come to you, too.

Philosophy

The art of
listening first.

Kate's approach starts with you: your hair, your lifestyle, and how much time you actually want to spend on upkeep. After more than twenty years in the industry, she designs every cut and colour around one principle: a style should suit both who you are and the life you're living.

Right now, that means welcoming clients at a studio in Kingston, Ontario, while Kate settles into her new community. She's also glad to travel directly to you when that's easier, especially for clients navigating hair loss, medical change, or who simply value more privacy.

Health First Never style at the cost of your health
