Welcome to The Spa

I'm a proud 2nd generation Filipino-Canadian, owner of Elly and Amar Studio.

I was born and bred in Winnipeg, MB and moved to Toronto in 2014. I've been actively involved in the Beauty Industry for over 15 years (I'm older than I look :P)

Aside from my involvement in the beauty industry, I co-own a lifestyle brand with my husband and I co-host a podcast with one of my BFFs.

I highly enjoy learning new things as well as connecting with people from all walks of life.

Some fun facts about me: I looove true crime documentaries (all documentaries actually), 90's Hip Hop and R&B is where my heart is and Beauty and the Beast is my all-time favorite disney classic.

 I come from a small city called Guelph and came to the big city to take my first big step into the beauty industry. I received my Medical Esthetician License in 2014 and jumpstarted my career in lashes, brows and waxing/threading services. 

I love all things beauty and continuously growing and learning the newest tips and techniques. During the pandemic, I started learning a new skill, how to cut men’s hair and realized I had yet to discover and unlock a new found love in the beauty industry. In the beginning of 2022, I decided to explore this new adventure into the hair industry. 

I am now currently in school and an apprentice on my way to getting my Hairstylist License. I hope to meet you all soon!"

 I was born and raised Vietnam. I came to Canada since I was 14, I went high school here. Then now, I’m currently an Esthetician student at Centennial college. I always dream to be a beauty specialist when I was a little girl. I always love playing with makeup, I remember I asked my mom for eyeshadow and lipstick for my 9th birthday present. So, beauty has been my passion for a really long time. I like listening to music and going out with friends in my spare time. Fun fact about me is “I’m a perfectionist, I like perfect my work. But sometimes it’s not a good thing!”
