I started working in a salon at 17 and had three goals:


Learn to braid neatly.
Learn to braid fast.
Do so without causing pain or damage.


Nailed it!


I've always been intentional...




I wanted to make a decent living, but I also have had a goal to help women feel as beautiful as we are. I did so through hair braiding and natural hair care.
I decided to share this love and intention through this Home Hair Care Academy.

Whether you want to learn how to braid or improve your styling ability, this Masterclass will teach you the proper technique backed by science based natural hair care.

Single Braids & Cornrows



This Teach Me How To Braid Masterclass offers instruction on extension free and modern knotless feed in style cornrows and single braids. You can learn the skill necessary to master a braid out or a more intimate style like single knotless braids. Healthy protective styles are one of my love languages.


Safe techniques and quality instructions.



My Masterclass offers clear instructions that teach gentle practices: free of tension, pulling, and damage to the hair because healthy hair and safe practices will ALWAYS be a priority to me.


Protective Styles can only be truly protective if they are prepped, installed, and removed with science based hair care.
