But, who is Mariss?

I never thought I would be where I am today. Not so long ago, I completed my studies in translation at the University of Ottawa. At that time, everything was uncertain because it was only during the final year of my bachelor's degree that I realized this field was not for me. I am a passionate, creative, and independent woman, and I needed a job that would allow me to fully embrace who I am.

It was in 2018 that my life completely changed. On a whim, I decided to take a training course in classic and Russian volume eyelash extensions in my hometown of Gatineau. A few months later, more passionate than ever, I continued to enhance my skills with Misencil Canada. I did this by retaking the training courses in classic and Russian volume eyelash extensions, and then pursuing three additional courses — mega volume, hygiene and health, and lash lift. In 2021, I completed the Advanced Russian Volume and Mega Volume training with lash industry pioneer, Roxy Canty-Currie. In 2022, I took an Advanced Russian Volume Masterclass with none other than Ilona Sparks, the owner of Revolashion. In 2023, I attended the prestigious Masterclass given by Monika Rzap, an artist from Poland, to perfect my Russian Volume and Mega Volume eyeliner effect in L and M curls. My learning doesn't stop here. This year, in 2024, I attended the Masterclass given by Lash Makers to perfect my Russian Volume and Mega Volume skills once again. Today, I hold more than 13 certifications, over half of which are specifically in Russian volume. You can see that Russian volume is my area of expertise and, in fact, one of my greatest passions.

Since 2024, Services beauté Mariss has become an academy. With the rare knowledge I've acquired over the years, it would be a crime to keep it all to myself.

At Académie SBM, we offer comprehensive training in eyelash extensions, including Classic and Russian Volume techniques, as well as personalized advanced training. The courses, including the manuals, were all created by me. Additionally, we have a team of professionals located throughout Quebec who represent Académie SBM. You can take a course with one of our official trainers in Gatineau, Wakefield, Mirabel or Quebec. 

Professionalism, relationships of trust, the quality of the services offered and customer service are at the center of my priorities.

Services beauté Mariss is proud to offer the highest quality products that are approved by MANY qualified lash artists in Quebec. All Services beauté Mariss products are animal friendly: vegan and not tested on animals.

Of course, none of this would have been possible without the loyalty of my dear clients and the trust they have placed in me.

I am definitely the luckiest entrepreneur.
