my roots

I pretty much braided hair my entire life, I learned when I was 12 from a family friend. I am my mothers only daughter ( I have 6 brothers by the way) and she had no idea how to braid, however, she did have the great idea to make sure I learned “how to fish” meaning I learned how to braid. All day everyday, especially my junior high, and high school years I would braid for any and everyone. Unfortunately, when college time came around I got scared and did what everyone else was doing, I went to college and majored in Business Administration. Too bad two years in and with new life challenges I realized “this is not for me”. I always continued to do hair on the side until my job at the time gave me the biggest blessing in disguise, they fired me, told me something about their company and I going in different directions and literally sent me on my way. Back to my roots I went.

This new phase of my life sent me into a new reflective state. I started thinking about my purpose, I started focusing on my body more, exercising and eating healthier. I started noticing how damaged my relaxed hair was and decided to do my big chop. And trust, I was the girl who started on relaxers when I was 5 yrs old, yes, I said 5, so I knew all about the relaxer life. After 20yrs of the “creamy crack” I’d had enough and just wanted to start living in my own truth. I wanted to embrace my textured hair, kinks and all!

By this time, I am a mother of two awesome boys and life had to continue on. So I went back to school, and this time, I went for what I wanted, my hair license! Once armed with my license and sharpened skills, Beaute Naturelle La came to life. By now I’ve been in the industry for 10yrs plus, I’m licensed, I’ve done all kind of mentorships, apprenticeships, and courses to finally creating my own lane, only to find there weren’t many products catering to my hair texture. So, what do you do when you can’t find what you need? You make it!

Natural beauty is here! Everything you will need is here, from products, services, D.I.Y’s and most importantly constructive support for you on your natural care journey. My mission is to aide all my naturals with there journey to healthy hair and skin while also creating generational wealth for my boys ( now I got 3 mini kings)! I want to help people be ok with being exactly who they are, and I will, naturally and with love.

yours truly,
