Jeff Ward
Jeff strives to make every guest who visits leave feeling their best self.
In 1996 Jeff launched his first salon, ARQ HAIR WORKSHOP INC, in beautiful Victoria, BC. Known for his passion for education, creative thinking and technical ability ARQ soon became the place to go for clients and stylist alike. In the following years Jeff and his team at ARQ have been published numerous times, won many industry awards, developed their own product line and grew to open a second location in Langford BC.
In 2000 Jeff took a year off to travel south east Asia and then settled in Vancouver, BC working with the internationally famous Toni & Guy salon company. As the Toni & Guy brand neared their end in Vancouver, Jeff always looking forward, opened a private studio in Vancouver’s historic Gastown. As demand grew for his services and unique technical abilities, Jeff moved shop to Kitsilano and created the salon Hair Inspired Professionals (HIP Salon).
