Torie Burdeney has been a sought-after hair stylist for over a decade, with her work appearing in
magazines and on centre-stage in one of Calgary’s most acclaimed Arts festivals: the High Performance
Rodeo.
In addition to teaching advanced cutting techniques to apprentices for over five years and taking advanced training herself in Amsterdam and Montreal, she tries to attend at least one hair show annually to enhance and innovate her creative skills.
At 11, Torie’s desire for hair that could capture her authentic self catalyzed into a lifelong goal – to be able to provide others with hair that fit who they were and who they wanted to be.
In high school, a neighbour witnessed that passion and potential, and gave Torie her first set of professional scissors and the confidence to go for her dreams and apply to the Blanche MacDonald Centre in Vancouver.
Accepted into the prestigious school, Torie further achieved her goals by expanding her repertoire, honing her skills, and refining her natural talents.
