I can’t say enough good things about industry hair! From the staff, the expertise, cleanliness and welcoming feeling when you walk through the doors! I have been going there since they opened and have never left not satisfied! And you HAVE to try the goldwell shampoo, it’s a game changer! I recently ran out of it and was using my daughters generic shampoo and my hair felt so gross! I instantly messaged Marilyn and she arranged for a curbside pickup so I could get the shampoo and conditioner! They have gone above and beyond to make you feel safe during this pandemic. Looking forward to coming here for many more years and leaving with beautiful hair each time! More...

I can’t say enough about Michelle and Be Active Live Better! After being referred by a friend, I reached out to Michelle to sign up for 2 classes per week. I was welcomed graciously by Michelle and the whole BALB community! No judgements, only support and motivation. Within 1 week, I was reaching out to Michelle to sign up for more classes! Although you are working up a sweat, the classes are fun! I recommend it for anyone...no matter what your workout background or history is! Can’t wait to continue with Michelle and this very special group! More...

For someone who hasn’t worked out in quite some time, it’s easy to get overwhelmed when starting to work out again... but Michelle and the BALB community make it so easy and comfortable to just MOVE! She often encourages you (with fun dance moves as well lol), offers modifications during the workouts and checks in to make sure you have all the tools necessary to make the most of your workouts! “One is better than None” is something Michelle said in one of my first workouts and it really stuck with me... I’m here and I’m moving, no matter what the pace! I’m so happy I joined!!!! More...

I originally joined BALB in person, I loved the energy, welcoming atmospheres and felt amazing after the classes. Michelle has done an incredible job transitioning to an online studio and I have never been this motivated to work out in my life! Anyone can search a free workout class online but you won’t get the same sense of community and support that she offers. Michelle cares about her members mental and physical health and goes above and beyond to help you become the best version of yourself. Thanks so much BALB, can’t wait to continue my fitness journey!

They have a very serious COVID protocol. They don’t let you into the salon until you’ve completed the COVID questions, sanitized your hands and your cellphone and taken your temperature. The salon is all set up 6 feet apart and they are not running at full capacity so there was only one customer just ending their appt when I arrived They sanitize before and after you and tell you at each point in the appt.

Industry is more than a salon it is a family that cares. They are a group of kind, talented stylists with a huge heart. This award winning salon is tucked away in the quiet part of St. Catharines. Their talents are featured throughout the salon as well as the smiles of the clients when they leave . When you leave the salon whether it is an important event or not you go away feeling beautiful . With all the worries of Covid 19 they have made sure everyone is safe even if it means serving less clients. I truly missed their friendship and talents that we take for granted during the pandemic.

Strange what will open and what stays closed. Kids can go to day care but not safe for a haircut Shout out to Industry Hair and Esthetics for hanging in patiently! Once things open up I can’t recommend Marilyn Cirello-vendittelli and Dave Vendittelli highly enough. Their store is always spotless and I know they’ve upped the anti since Covid. They have won so many trophies for excellence in style and colour so can’t believe we have such amazing talent inSt Catharines and we don’t have to fly to New York or LA for this level of expertise. I had my last cut in February but I’m still getting compliments on my hair - long past it’s due date for a trim! That’s the sign of an excellent cut. Love you Marilyn and Dave.

I do not consider my career a job! I absolutely LOVE what I do-from teaching my love of fitness and watching my client's growth from the inside out is really invaluable. Helping others realize their potential and helping them live better is my passion.
