Growing up, I was always surrounded by the sound of my mom doing hair — the comb gliding, the laughter, the confidence she brought out in every person who sat in her chair. She never played when it came to hair; she made sure mine was always laid to perfection. Watching her work made me fall in love with the art of transformation — how a simple style could change someone’s whole mood and remind them of their beauty.As I got older, she started teaching me the basics — twists, braids, little pigtails — and from there, my passion grew naturally. Every time I do hair now, it feels like I’m carrying a piece of her with me. It’s more than just a talent; it’s a connection, a legacy. My love for hair comes from her — her patience, her creativity, and her dedication to making people feel beautiful. Doing hair gives me peace, pride, and purpose. It’s my way of honoring her, expressing myself, and helping others feel confident inside and out.
