Bio

A graduate of the acclaimed Marvel Beauty School in Toronto, Great Lengths Hair Gallery’s co-owner Patrick Hupé began his hair styling journey at Stouffville’s Headlines Salon and Spa some 27 years ago. It was here that he laid the foundations for what has proven to be a hugely successful career to date.

Never one to rest on his laurels, Patrick’s award-winning career has been punctuated by ongoing further education and personal development, both at home and internationally. A regular at seminars across Canada and beyond, Patrick’s attendance at events held by the late Martin Parsons would lead to him assisting in many of Martin’s training sessions across the GTA.

Always keen to pass on his knowledge, skills and expertise to a new generation of hair stylists, Patrick can often be found educating students at courses, seminars and tradeshows held by JOICO and, previously, RUSK.

As a JOICO educator, a role which he is incredibly passionate about, Patrick proudly shares his experience and knowledge with both new and more experienced hair stylists. Ever eager to further his own professional development, Patrick has also made sure to continue his own education and training, both locally and abroad, always finding time to stay ahead of the industry curve.

Since its launch, Unionville’s Great Lengths Hair Gallery has continued to flourish under Patrick’s co-ownership, winning the award for top hair salon in Unionville/Markham in each of the last 6 years. His level of knowledge and expertise in “Great Lengths” 100% Human Hair Extensions ensures that the salon offers a unique, and much appreciated, service to customers.

He, along with a his talented team, are renowned for using their talents to bring the latest styles and techniques to their long list of regular clients. In fact, a key part of Patrick’s role with Great Lengths Hair Gallery is to ensure each and every member of the salon’s styling staff are up-to-date with the latest products, techniques, styles, and customer service techniques.

There can be no doubt about Patrick’s dedication to hair styling. His knowledge, skill, expertise, and determination to always offer the best service to customers, on top of his passion, motivation, and always cutting-edge fashion sense, continues to prove that he can take anyone to Great Lengths!
