For those seeking effortless glamor, instant volume, or a complete hair transformation, Blo Blow Dry Bar - Bernardsville has become a go-to destination. At the heart of this transformation is Olivia Canada, a lead hair extensionist and style boss whose expertise, creativity, and passion for beauty make her a standout in the industry.
“Helping people look and feel their best is what I love most,” Canada says. “When someone sits in my chair, it’s about more than styling—it’s about confidence, self-expression, and making sure they leave feeling like the best version of themselves.”
Mastering the Art of Extensions
Canada’s journey with hair extensions began over 15 years ago when she experimented with them herself as a high school student. Since then, she has mastered the craft, learning from top educators and gaining multiple certifications. Her deep understanding of hair textures and extension methods allows her to tailor every client’s experience to their unique needs.
Blo Blow Dry Bar - Bernardsville is a certified Color Match Partner for Glam Seamless, offering complimentary consultations for a range of extension types, including clip-ins, tape-ins, wefts, and Glam Band Halos. The team is extensively trained in the latest techniques, ensuring seamless, natural-looking results.
"Extensions aren’t just about length," Canada notes. "They add volume, fullness, and even an extra layer of confidence. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, which is why consultations are so important to determine the best method for each client’s lifestyle and hair goals."
Why Extensions? A Game-Changer for Everyday and Special Occasions
Whether adding subtle volume or dramatic length, extensions have become a must-have for many. For Canada, clip-ins are a personal favorite.
“As someone who wears clip-ins daily, I can’t stress enough how much of a game-changer they are,” she explains. “They’re comfortable, easy to use, and offer instant transformation. Whether you want a little boost for a night out or a full-volume look for everyday wear, they’re incredibly versatile.”
For those unsure about committing to extensions, Canada encourages starting small.
“There’s no commitment with clip-ins,” she says. “Try them for a special event, see how they feel, and you might just fall in love with them like I did.”
The Glam Seamless Difference
Blo Blow Dry Bar - Bernardsville partners with Glam Seamless, known for its high-quality, ethically sourced 100% human remy hair extensions. These extensions are designed to maintain shine, softness, and durability, preventing tangling while offering a luxurious, natural look.
The salon team recently received hands-on training from Robert Barcelo, Senior Director of Sales & Education at Glam Seamless, who introduced advanced installation techniques and new styling options—like the sew-in messy updo, a favorite for effortless elegance.
According to Barcelo, choosing the right extension type depends on individual needs.
“Clip-ins are great for temporary volume, tape-ins offer semi-permanent fullness, and keratin or sew-ins provide long-term solutions,” Barcelo explains. “The key is finding the right match for your hair type, lifestyle, and styling preferences.”
A Legacy of Confidence & Style
The demand for high-quality extensions has grown, thanks in part to Glam Seamless founder Alexandra Cristin. A former curve model and reality TV personality, Cristin recognized the lack of affordable, accessible tape-in extensions and created a brand to fill that gap.
"I wanted to offer the confidence of great hair at all price points," Cristin says. "Hair extensions aren’t just a beauty trend—they’re a way to empower people every day."
At Blo Blow Dry Bar - Bernardsville, Canada and her team continue that mission, ensuring every client leaves feeling confident and radiant.
With Mother’s Day right around the corner, now is the perfect time to treat mom to a hair transformation.
