The team
Come into the salon and let Melissa and her talented team make you feel absolutely fabulous.
Melissa Ostridge
Owner & Esthetician
Melissa is proud to be the owner and esthetician of Absolutely Fabulous Hair & Spa. She graduated in 2003 from the Jon Raymond Institute in Moncton, New Brunswick, started with the salon in March 2009, and after six years as salon manager took over as owner in May 2014.
Melissa loves making every client feel great about themselves. She specializes in waxing, facials, pedicures, eyelash extensions and much more.
Maria Walsh
Master Stylist
Maria graduated at the top of her class from the Private Institute of Hair Design in 2017 and has been with Absolutely Fabulous ever since. During her school year she placed second on the Island in the Total Look student competition and took first place in her class professionalism award.
Since graduating she has trained with Goldwell and KMS, including a detailed blonde course. She has always loved all things hair, and enjoys taking an idea and making it into something great for her clients. What inspires her: there is no limit on ways to keep learning new techniques and getting better as a stylist.
Cindy Gallant-Bannister
Master Stylist
Cindy grew up with a passion for hair, styling family and friends for special events or just because she loved doing it. At 39, she decided to stop everything and follow her dream: she applied, got accepted, graduated, and started her career. In 2014 the Autism Association recognized her as the stylist to go to, and she completed a cut and colour course the same year.
A happy, energetic mother of two, Cindy spends her busy, fun-filled days doing piercings, colours, cuts and styles for men, women and kids of all ages. At the end of the day, she only feels complete if she has helped someone feel better about themselves.
