A Greener Future RESTORING

THE WOODS

The woodland at Crofton House School is a special place for students to play and learn. It provides a natural environment and a green space to improve air quality and reduce noise in the neighbourhood.

In 2022, e orts began to restore and preserve this area. Over the past 10 months, new trees have been planted, invasive species removed and native plants reintroduced.

Supported by donations from our families and alumnae, this ongoing project will help ensure the woods continue to be a magical place for generations to come.

Publisher’s Note

Welcome to the summer edition of Kerrisdale Insider. Warm weather brings locals and visitors out in increased numbers to enjoy this picturesque neighbourhood. We are thrilled to bring you a guide that offers inside details about the area’s local shopping and events.

Jazz, blues, folk, swing, brass and more! When you are out shopping on a Saturday afternoon in July and August, stop and enjoy Concerts Under the Clock, brought to you by the Kerrisdale Business Association.

On the cover is Sharen Lee, who owns Kerrisdale Hair Bar. In 2019, she purchased Economy Barber Shop (which previously operated in the space for 40 years) and rebranded it from a barber shop to a unisex hair salon. You may have caught sight of Sharen juggling outside her shop between clients!

We introduce you to Dhruvik Patel and his team, who recently opened All-in-One Mini Mart on West 41st Avenue. The neighbourhood’s new convenience shop sells both day-to-day groceries and everyday products from around the world.

Shoku Vegan Sushi is a new addition to Kerrisdale Village. Sadly, Gap Kids and Irashai Sushi recently closed their doors.

It’s the season to dine on an outdoor patio, stroll or cycle along the Arbutus Greenway, cool down with a bubble tea, iced coffee or an ice cream cone, or walk through the neighbourhood and explore Kerrisdale’s unique shops, services and restaurants. We wish you a wonderful summer ahead!

KERRISDALE HAIR BAR: Juggling a New Business

Look closely when travelling along West Boulevard just north of West 41st Avenue, and you may catch sight of a one-person circus act. Sharen Lee owns Kerrisdale Hair Bar and is also an amateur juggler in her spare time.

Many Kerrisdale residents will remember Economy Barber Shop, which previously operated in the space for 40 years. In October 2019, Sharen bought the business and transformed it into Kerrisdale Hair Bar, serving men and women of all ages.

In January 2020, she modernized the shop with new paint and vinyl flooring; five weeks later, COVID-19 hit, and the business was forced to close as part of the mandated lockdown.

Who can forget pandemic hair? It was an issue for many; some took matters into their

own hands and snipped their locks, while others grew their hair and waited for salons to reopen. Kerrisdale Hair Bar opened in May 2020, and business was brisk for two months. Sharen confides, “From August through the winter, it slowed down completely.”

As a new business owner, she felt the stress of having a small client base. Sharen says, “Rebranding from a barber shop to a unisex hair salon with a pandemic thrown into the mix was challenging. The former clientele was 95% men, and the barbers who continued to work at the Hair Bar were only doing two to three cuts per day in the fall and winter of 2020.”

Sharen grew up in Kerrisdale, and her father continues to reside in their house on West 49th Avenue. Ironically, she was

6 June 15 - September 1, 2023 KerrisdaleInsider.com

talking to a customer about her childhood residence, and they made the connection that he previously lived in their house.

Sharen says, “It’s an evolving neighbourhood. I love the diversity of the area. I love seeing bubble tea and Vietnamese food alongside older businesses. It’s a safe community to raise a family and it was a great place to grow up.”

As a child, Sharen loved to dance; she dreamt of being a hip-hop dancer but saw no opportunities in Vancouver. Instead, she went into hair styling and has worked in the industry for 16 years.

she incorporates three juggling balls and a hula hoop while balancing a bottle of water on her head; she continues this tradition when she is not busy cutting hair.

During the pandemic, she would practice her dance moves. “I decided to attract customers with my dancing so people wouldn’t see a quiet salon,” she says. In addition to dancing,

At events like Carnival Days, Sharen juggles, and people will approach her to find out what she’s doing. This is a natural launching pad for her to tell them about her salon. She says, “It’s a location that is not highly visible, and not everyone is aware that the business has changed.”

Kerrisdale Hair Bar provides haircuts, smoothing, highlights, colouring, and perms. Sharen mentions that the classic perm, which was once commonly associated with older women, has become trendy with teenage boys. She attributes this to the influence of K-pop (Korean popular music) performers.

7 KerrisdaleInsider.com June 15 - September 1, 2023
“I learnt and practiced juggling so I wouldn’t go crazy while business was slow.”
“My juggling is not something you would expect to see in this neighbourhood.”

Kerrisdale Hair Bar uses non-toxic, plant-based cruelty-free products.

A second round of renovations is in the works. The plan is to make it hipper and give it a facelift to attract a younger clientele.

The industrious salon owner works seven days a week. Kerrisdale Hair Bar only closes on Christmas, Boxing Day, and New Year’s Day.

Attending workshops to further her knowledge about cuts and colouring is a perk of the job. Sharen has met new hair stylist friends at these sessions and is eager to attract younger stylists to work at her shop.

Customer reviews are very positive. A client comments, “Sharen has an awesome talent as a juggler. This talent is only surpassed by her ability to create a professional haircut. You may find her outside indulging in her talent for balls in the air. But when the scissors replace balls in the air and focus on your hair, you can expect the best haircut you’ve ever had.”

Sharen believes in complete transparency with customers. If they are unsatisfied, she likes to hear about it to make corrections. It is gratifying to hear people remark, “This is exactly what I wanted!”

She prefers clients bring pictures to show their desired hairstyle or colour; it removes the guesswork and results in a satisfied customer.

In addition to receiving a top-notch hairstyle, clients leave smiling, knowing a percentage of their reasonably priced haircut is donated to the SPCA.

Ask An Expert:

What are the benefits of a Professional Real Estate Negotiator?

Real estate agents are paid negotiators and it is critical that you have a professional who is trustworthy and trained to get the most value from a real estate transaction. The benefits of a Professional Real Estate Negotiator include:

BETTER CHANCE OF A FAVOURABLE OUTCOME - An unskilled negotiator argues positions which lead to a win/ lose or a lose/lose outcome. A skilled negotiator trades interests to create a win/win outcome.

SKILLED AT MANAGING EMOTIONS - Emotions influence behaviour. Emotional negotiations result in a weaker approach, quicker reactions, and an early exit. Third-party negotiators reveal less emotion in stressful environments. Their approach is careful and deliberate, and they strike the best deals.

STRATEGIC - Professional negotiators focus on identifying alternatives, using leverage, and executing the process strategically. They create value and are more successful because their skills are better honed, and the process is routine for them.

As a Professional Real Estate Negotiator, I offer expertise and discretion, and I assist my clients to achieve better outcomes in every real estate transaction.

ALL-IN-ONE MINI MART: Kerrisdale’s New One-Stop-Shop

Dhruvik Patel and his team opened All-in-One Mini Mart on West 41st Avenue two months ago. The neighbourhood’s new convenience shop sells both day-to-day groceries and everyday products from around the world.

Dhruvik moved to Canada from his home in Vadodara, India, five years ago. His passion for business began at an early age.

He explains, “Growing up in a business family, I've always felt that entrepreneurship is in my blood. I started selling kids' toys and assorted items at the age of 8, and those early experiences taught me valuable lessons that I still remember today. While I had practical knowledge of business operations, I recognized the importance of theoretical education in achieving professional growth. That's why I pursued a bachelor’s degree in business, which provided me with a solid foundation of knowledge and skills to complement my hands-on experience.”

"I believe God guides us to where we are meant to be. My story began when I first arrived in Vancouver. I took an Uber to my rented home from the airport, but on the second day, I got lost and ended up in Kerrisdale. Here, I opened a bank account, and that's when my visits to Kerrisdale began. Initially, it was just for my banking needs, but I soon became enamoured with the area's historic architecture, tree-lined streets, and green spaces. This inspired me to do something in Kerrisdale."

Realizing that many people in the community are from different parts of the world and miss food and products from their home countries, Dhruvik saw an opportunity to provide a unique shopping experience by offering international and local products. He feels this sets All-in-One Mini Mart apart from traditional corner stores.

12 June 15 - September 1, 2023 KerrisdaleInsider.com

All-in-One Mini Mart is a fusion of a convenience and specialty store.

The store carries snacks and drinks, household items and personal care products from Australia, Canada, China, India, Iran, Japan, Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

“We take pride in offering unique products not easily found in Greater Vancouver. For example, we offer a wide range of Turkish products and exotic drinks not commonly available elsewhere.” In addition, the store provides services such as U-Haul rentals and money transfers.

Dhruvik strives to create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere where customers feel at home and can find everything they need in one place. He and his staff take pride in offering quality products and friendly customer service.

“By offering products catering to a diverse range of age groups, we aim to promote a sense of community and inclusivity. We want everyone to enjoy the feeling of purchasing power and find products that bring them joy and satisfaction. Whether you're shopping for yourself or your family, All-in-One has something for everyone,” says Dhruvik.

13 KerrisdaleInsider.com June 15 - September 1, 2023
“Our motto is to serve the community and make our customers’ lives easier in any way we can.”
Whether you need a quick snack or a household essential, All-in-One Mini Mart has you covered.

“People are excited to have a one-stop-shop where they can find all their daily necessities any time of day. Customers appreciate the convenience of buying everything they need in one place, without travelling to multiple stores.”

They particularly like the extended hours of operation. Open until midnight, people can shop for their daily needs. This is appreciated by those who need to buy something essential, like milk, eggs, or bread, for the morning.

Dhruvik remarks, “By staying involved in the store’s daily operations, I ensure we meet our customer’s needs and provide exceptional service.”

He is committed to providing the best products and services, even if it means incurring losses. If cheaper options can be found elsewhere, he will match or beat the price.

“I strive to maintain my reputation as a man of integrity who values honesty and transparency. My friends often refer to me as such, and I take great pride in my reputation.”

"As a young entrepreneur, I've faced numerous challenges in starting my business, including financial obstacles, finding suitable employees, obtaining necessary approvals, and sourcing reliable suppliers to meet our customers' needs. Despite these challenges, I'm committed to working hard and believe my efforts will pay off. I'm proud to provide products and services that cater to the diverse mix of

people who call Kerrisdale home. I couldn't have done this without the support of my parents and the community.”

“It is thrilling to see our customers’ excitement and positive feedback. We are committed to providing exceptional service and meeting the diverse needs of our customers. We look forward to serving Kerrisdale for years to come.”
