The Hair Bawse

About

The Hair Bawse, located in Des Moines, is a hair salon founded by Shanelle, a licensed cosmetologist with a deep passion for healthy hair. Born out of personal frustration with finding a stylist who could care for her hair without chemicals or heat damage, Shanelle built a salon dedicated to nurturing all hair types. Specializing in the Olaplex Silk Press, the salon offers transformative treatments that rebuild, restructure, and improve moisture retention for color-treated, textured, virgin, and all hair types in between. At The Hair Bawse, the mission is simple: help every client achieve beautiful, healthy, and manageable hair — because good hair truly speaks louder than words.
