entrepreneur. stylist. influencer.

Life's beauties go unnoticed because we often allow society to decide what should be perceived as beautiful, therefore losing the value of our uniqueness.

Undiscovered confidence and true beauty is hidden behind the hesitation towards change and the fear of breaking the norm. Our selfless roles as women enable us to forget the importance of finding ourselves. As our 'me time' slowly diminishes, and our needs are superseded with those of others, we lose the feeling of individuality and liveliness that is reflected through our appearance and lifestyle.

beauty defined.

I began my styling career 13 years ago in the bayou state of Louisiana. With high academic performance, I achieved my bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology with a concentration in Pre-Medicine at LSU, but couldn’t ignore my passion for the beauty industry. Subsequently, I decided to further my education at the Aveda Institute. After 4 years of perfecting my craft, I pursued to gain my independence in the field and moved to Charlotte to expand my market. During my tenure in the Ballantyne, NC area, my role as a multi-cultural salon owner progressed into becoming the powerhouse behind the brand, Shassity Styles.

The latest development of my multi-faceted brand includes the recent opening of Skye Salons, Charlotte’s finest female-owned luxury salon suites. The unique concept and design of Skye Salons offers a collective beauty experience for both professionals and clients where community, creativity and culture meet.

 
 
 
 
 

Curly littles campaign

I also founded the Curly Littles Campaign, a movement focused on providing professional support and hands-on learning experiences to parents who struggle with maintaining their kid’s curly hair. This campaign also partners with adoptive and foster parents to boost kid’s self esteem and provides a judgment free learning experience.

 
 

#INFLUENCER

When I’m not working in the salon, I keep busy with brand partnerships, client styling and growing my entrepreneurial portfolio. On those rare occasions of downtime, when I’m not working on expanding the brand, I enjoy traveling the world, discovering new items at Trader Joe’s, and staying up late watching Netflix! I’m also a self proclaimed french fry connoisseur!
