About Me

Twenty-Six Years Of Building Trust Into A Business

Natural Hair Loft is a boutique studio built for curly, coily, and textured hair — the kind of hair that’s too often mistreated or misunderstood by traditional salons. I immigrated to Canada in 2016 and spent years searching for a stylist who actually understood my own curl pattern before I decided to become that stylist myself. Today the studio offers healthy, low-manipulation care in a calm, private setting, and I’m a proud IWEC mentor, coaching fellow member-founders on brand, pricing, and building a loyal client base from zero.

What I Do

Services

01

Curl Cut & Definition

A precision dry-cut technique that works with your natural curl pattern, removing bulk and shaping each curl individually so it falls and springs back exactly where it should — no guesswork, no unnecessary length lost, just a cut built around how your hair actually behaves.

02

Deep Conditioning Treatments

Rich, protein-balanced masks tailored to your hair's specific porosity, applied under gentle heat to restore moisture, elasticity, and shine. Ideal after color, heat styling, or simply when your curls feel thirsty and in need of a reset.

03

Silk Press

A smooth, heat-styled finish that temporarily straightens curls while protecting the hair's natural integrity, using low-heat tools and moisture-locking products so your curl pattern bounces right back at your very next wash day.

04

Protective Styling

Braids, twists, and low-manipulation styles designed to shield your ends from daily wear, weather, and friction, giving your hair a genuine rest period while still looking polished and intentional for weeks at a time.

05

Scalp Health Consults

A close look at your scalp's condition — buildup, dryness, sensitivity, or thinning — paired with a personalized care plan, because healthy curls start at the root, not the ends.

06

Big Chop / Transitioning

Whether you're cutting straight to natural or growing out a relaxer gradually, I'll guide you through every stage with a plan that matches your comfort level, timeline, and how much length you're ready to let go of.

07

Bridal & Event Styling

Elegant, long-lasting curl styling for weddings and special occasions, built to photograph beautifully and hold through hours of dancing, with a trial session beforehand so there are no surprises on the big day.

08

At-Home Curl Coaching

A hands-on session where you learn the exact products, order of application, and techniques that work for your specific curl type, so wash day at home finally feels as good as it does when you leave the studio.

How Can I Help You

A Few Ways to Start

  • Not sure what your actual curl pattern is or how to work with it? Book a curl consult and I’ll map out a routine that fits your hair, not a trend.
  • Dealing with dryness, breakage, or a stressed scalp? We’ll start with a scalp health check and a treatment plan.
  • Growing out a relaxer or ready for the big chop? I’ll walk you through transitioning at your own pace.
