About me
Hi, I’m Rick — a Houston-based hairstylist and current cosmetology student who’s already hands-on in the industry. I specialize in natural hair care, from silk press and sleek ponytails to quick weaves and deep conditioning treatments that restore health and shine.
My passion lies in helping clients embrace their natural texture while keeping things polished, versatile, and always on-trend. I’m constantly inspired by fashion — the creativity, movement, and boldness all fuel how I approach hair behind the chair.
My goal is to own a salon where healthy hair, great energy, and elevated style come together. Until then, I’m soaking up every moment of growth, one transformation at a time.
When I’m not doing hair, I’m chilling with my two dogs or scrolling fashion looks for my next style concept.

Why I'm here
I’m here to connect, grow, and elevate. As a student and working stylist, I’m using Canvas Me to build my brand, network with other creatives, and showcase the work I’m proud of.
I’m always open to learning, collaborating, and leveling up my skills — whether it’s through mentorship, shadowing, or salon opportunities. My long-term goal is to own a salon, so I’m soaking in everything I can now to build a solid foundation for the future.
Canvas Me is helping me put myself out there, tell my story, and stay inspired by others in the industry who are chasing their vision just like I am.
