About me

I'm a traveling celebrity hair extension specialist with expertise in Brazilian knots and natural hair care. As a master hairstylist with nearly two decades of experience, I've built my career on delivering healthy, beautiful hair transformations without compromising hair integrity. I specialize in lace-free extensions that give natural vibes while maintaining the health of your natural hair. Beyond my salon work, I'm a creative director and designer with SheDrippz, bringing my artistic vision to fashion and beauty. I'm passionate about educating others in the beauty industry and sharing my knowledge through workshops and professional training. My goal is to empower clients and fellow professionals to achieve their best selves.
