THUNDER BAY -- Thunder Bay’s Adrian Minnella proved last month he can style hair with the world’s best.

The Trenz Hair Studio stylist earned a bronze medal in the progressive haircut category at the OMC World Hair Show, held in South Korea.

He was one of four Canadians to medal.

Winnipeg’s Kennth Hiebert won gold in the masters category, while Kitchener, Ont.’s Lina Shamoun won top spot in the progressive haircut category. St. Catharines, Ont.’s Julia Falvo was fifth in the same category.

Ontario’s Dee Fortier placed second in the masters category.
