Artist & Entrepreneur
an alarmingly independent neuroqueer nonconforming artist. I'm a licensed NYC Holistic Hair Stylist, Beauty and Life Coach. I specialize in "hard" hair & personalities. Period. Give me your unruly, thick, impossible hair. Give me your thin, stringy, slow-growing hair. Give me all of your frizz. Come at me with your "hard" personality and your shyness. Give me a year to teach you holistic ways to sustain and nourish your hair and life... your beauty."
