Hello Kings and Queens, my name is Bridgette Craighead and I specialize in natural hair and creative braiding. I recently graduated from Paul Mitchell The School Roanoke where I found my niche in cutting and coloring. At my time at Paul Mitchell I had an opportunity to go to the Capitol and fight for hair education rights. A bill was created to reduce hair education to 1000 hours so I stood up for what I believed in and became a hair education activist, forever fighting for education and seeking more through my career. I’m also the President of Black Lives Matter in Franklin County just to put that out there I really do stand up for what I believe in no matter what. Before I graduated I was gifted my very own salon so now I am a business owner of El3ven11 Beauty Lounge. I haven’t opened my doors yet ,because I want to make sure I have the knowledge and a systems in place to ensue that El3ven11 Beauty Lounge is successful and a longevity salon.
