OUR HISTORY
Our beginnings
It was in 1994 around a dinner that the story of Parikart began. The two co-owners, Hélène Paré and Sylvie Picard already had a lot in common at that time: the love of the field of beauty, the need to evolve personally and professionally as well as the desire to exceed their limits and grow. continually. Despite their two personalities and their completely different characters, their vision and their goal were always the same, that is to say to build something great and lasting, to create a distinctive concept in the service of beauty, to respond to customers looking for advice and listening in addition to finding effective beauty products and services. This is the mission that has guided Parikart for over 29 years already!
What does Parikart mean?
Parikart is the mixture of the names Paré and Picard linked by a “K” which represented scissors in the company's very first logo. The beginning of the name recalls “Paris”, which is for the two co-owners the place par excellence for trends and fashion. The purpose, which is “Art”, highlights the artistic side of the field.
After numerous moves over the past 29 years, Salon Parikart Espace Beauté is now located in the heart of downtown Lévis. It was in 2018 that the second branch of Parikart was created, the Parikart Signature, which is an even more luxurious and specialized version of Parikart.
OUR ASPIRATIONS FOR 29 YEARS
For more than 29 years now, Parikart's main mission has been to offer customers the best to meet their needs.

The superficial side of the field is emphasized a lot, whereas we believe that the most important thing is the feeling of well-being, satisfaction and confidence that a person can feel who is comfortable in their own skin. For several years, we have adopted the slogan "Beyond beauty", because beyond beauty, there are people, there are emotions, there are talents, passions and there are There is much more than what is visible to the naked eye. We work with emotions and feelings to get people to do things for them in the quest for real well-being. For Parikart, it is time to undo ideals and standards to build something new and thus encourage people to think and see beauty differently by focusing mainly on acceptance. For us, the most beautiful thing is someone who feels free to be who they are by taking full responsibility for themselves.
