Our Story
Copper Penny was built on a belief that a salon can be more.
More intentional.
More welcoming.
More refined.
In a small city like Selkirk, reputation matters. And over time, Copper Penny became known not just for beautiful hair but for hair that holds integrity. Blondes that stay healthy. Colour that’s custom, not copied. Extensions placed with precision. Cuts that grow out gracefully.
But the real story isn’t just about technique.
It’s about how people feel here.
From the beginning, Copper Penny was shaped by stylists who value connection as much as craftsmanship. A collaborative team of artists who share knowledge, refine their skills, and genuinely enjoy creating together.
No ego. No competition. Just nine skilled professionals who care deeply about their guests and each other.
As the salon evolved, so did the space. Earth tones replaced harsh lighting. A dedicated sink room was created so washing your hair feels like a ritual, not a rush. Complimentary head massages became non-negotiable. Coffee, tea, water, snacks- the small details that quietly say, “You’re taken care of.”
Laptop tables were added for the women building businesses from home. Blankets for those who just need to rest. A design that doesn’t lean too masculine or feminine — because everyone deserves to feel comfortable here.
It’s where you can come to work.
Or come to unwind.
Or come because you simply need to feel like yourself again.
We’ve grown through trusted word of mouth, Facebook tags and Google reviews not because we chase trends, but because we protect standards.
And while the techniques evolve, one thing never changes:
You will be welcomed.
You will be listened to.
You will come for the hair— but stay for the feeling.
That’s the Copper Penny story.
And we’re just getting started.
Our Mission
At Copper Penny, our mission is simple:
We believe technical excellence and human connection should go hand in hand. Every service is intentional. Every consultation is collaborative. Every guest is welcomed, listened to, and treated with care.
We’re here to protect the integrity of your hair, refine your look with precision, and give you space to exhale while we do it.
Because great hair is powerful.
But feeling known while you receive it? That’s everything.
Our Craft
We are masters of detail.
From blonde work that holds integrity, to advanced custom colour formulation, from hair extensions and toppers, to precision cuts and razor work, from curly specialization, layered movement, and modern barbering — our team brings both artistry and technical discipline to every appointment.
We don’t rush.
We don’t guess.
We refine.
Our stylists collaborate behind the scenes, share knowledge openly, and approach each head of hair with intention. The result? Hair that grows out beautifully, moves naturally, and feels unmistakably yours — just elevated.
Our Salon
Copper Penny was designed to feel like a soft landing.
Clean symmetry. A space that doesn’t lean too masculine or feminine — just balanced, welcoming, and grounded.
Work from home? Work from here.
Laptop tables, cozy blankets, and sustenance at your fingertips.
You’ll come for the hair.
You’ll stay for the connection.
Copper Penny isn’t just where you get your hair done.
It’s where you feel at home.
