Modern Momma Hair Studio
The “Mommy Salon” in Lower Sackville
Bring your kids to your appointments with you!! Family frie
Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last 3.5 years. Due to a move I’m afraid we have closed. 😞
It has been an amazing 3.5 years, and we were so happy that we were able to provide such a warm and inviting space for individuals and families to come. 💇🏼♀️
I hope someday to bring Modern Momma back to life, as I know soooo many mommas needed a salon like this, that allowed them to bring their kids with them to hang out, nap in our playpen, play with our toys etc.
It’s not goodbye (I hope) it’s see you later 👋
It’s hard to believe it’s been 3 years already since we first opened our doors!! 🎂 🥳
Thank you so much to Hair by Leah Fortune at Modern Momma Hair Studio and Hair by Kayla for helping to make this such a success and such an enjoyable space for everyone! 🙏
Thank you so much to all the clients who came and gave us a try… and continued to come back! 🤗 I’m happy to report that we are STILL fully booked and not taking any new clients. 🤩
I can’t wait to see what year 4 brings!! 🤗

We woke up to seeing our salon Modern Momma Hair Studio (that exclusively uses and carries Monat products!!) on Global News Halifax this morning!! 📺 😍

We got to know The STYLE COACH a couple of years ago at a trade show and she is such a sweetheart!! If you want some help with your wardrobe check her out!
Great job Leah!
What a a amazing review left by a new client after her first visit to our salon!! Thank you so much Tracey for your kind words!!
Well done Leah!!!🥳
I think different generations of Mother’s teach different values to their children depending on many factors like their culture, the decade, their own upbringing etc.
One value that I feel so happy to see being reinforced by so many of the amazing mothers out there, of this generation, is “Kindness” ❤️
This is a value that I hope I can instill in my own children 🙏, and that led to the idea for these cute, Koi brand, tank tops that we now carry in our Salon! 😍
Let’s all spread a little more kindness!❤️
$25 tax included (limited quantities)

Meet one of our Stylists,
Kayla and I had met years ago through her sister, and had continued to cross paths every now and then since.
Nearly a year ago, while we were all in lock down from Covid, Travis and I got talking about the next step for the salon and it’s growth. We decided it was time to add another stylist to our team. 💇🏼♀️
We didn’t want to add just anyone though. What was currently running was working so well we were afraid of loosing the specialness and ease of what we had.
While on my paddle board one evening, I asked the Universe to send me someone. Someone who was easy to work with, whose personality would be a great fit and who would work with pride and represent our salon as we would hope. The next day, I connected with Kayla!
We happily announced her addition to our “salon family” in time for reopening, in June, and she has been a dream to work with since, adding to the “team” feeling, we have.
So glad you decided to join us Kayla!
Meet one of our Stylists!
Leah has been with us since before our Modern Momma Hair Studio had even fully come to be! We had a vision and we had a permit, all we needed was a stylist! 💇🏼♀️
Cue !!! 🤗
I had known Leah a little bit from her days of working with the Monat product line in the past, so we sat down to discuss my plans, and see if it might be a fit for her!
By the end of the coffee date, we were driving over for her to see the space! She was on board and we were all sooo excited!!🥳
Leah brings with her a vast array of experience in her 11+ years behind the chair and we are so grateful for all that she adds to the client’s experience in our salon. Leah makes everyone feel “at home”. ❤️
I asked in my stories which hair struggles I could help you with first, and there was an overwhelming response to Tangles!!!
I think this is a very relevant topic this time of year, because while I, myself, am not prone to tangles on a daily occasion, spring winds, summer days on boats, and in and out of the water, can sure cause a few. If you ARE prone to tangles though, you may be able to change that! 🤩
First of all, why does some people’s hair get more tangled than others? There are a few contributing factors, like those windy days I mentioned, or the texture of your hair, but also it could be a sign of how healthy or damaged your hair is! Say WHHAAAATTT???😧
That’s right! When your hair is damaged, that outer layer of your hair strand (cuticle) opens up, like shingles lifting off a roof. Then, all those shingles poking up, catch on each other and cause tangles and matting. Repair the damage, the shingles all lay down smooth and flat, and voila, less tangles! 🥰
There are many things you can do to reduce your tangles and your damage, but here are a few ideas to get you started:
1. Always condition your hair (pro tip: squeeze excess water out of your hair before applying conditioner to get maximum benefits)
2. Go easy with the towel. Rough towel drying causes friction and damage to the hair. Let air dry for a few minutes before drying or use a hair wrap.
3. Sleep with your hair loosely pulled up/back to prevent friction and tangling
4. Use a leave in conditioner like Monat’s Restore Leave in to repair damage and give hair more of a “slip” to prevent catching on other hairs.
5. Use Monat’s Unknot Detangler before combing wet hair with a wide tooth comb or wet brush to prevent pulling and tugging on tangles, causing even more damage.
Good luck! I’d love to hear if any of these tips help to reduce your tangles.
Tag a friend who you know struggles with tangles too!

5 years!! Holy Crow!!!😮
5 years ago today, I was on month 3 of desperately searching the internet for a way to make $500 a month from home, so I could stay home with the boys when my MAT leave ended the following month.
I tried a sample of Monat shampoo and conditioner from Trina Mosher, with FULL intentions of not liking it, so I could say “thanks but no thanks” and go back to my online search. I had no idea, when I got out the shower that day, that EVERYTHING was about to change.
I was SOOOO impressed with the results I had from just 1 use of the products I joined the business that same day!!
5 years, 4 FREE trips ✈️ , 3 Country Expansions 🌍 , 2 Spinoff businesses (Modern Momma Hair Studio 💇🏼♀️and Modern Momma Apparel 🧢 ) and 1 earned Cadillac 🚙 later….I’m still blown away by all that these products have brought into my life! Friendships, personal growth, healthy hair, reverse aging skin, travel, the list goes on and on! 🥰
