Meet The Founder, Midlife Hair Health Specialist

I didn’t set out to work in midlife hair health — I arrived here through lived experience and unanswered questions.

When I began noticing changes in my hair due to hormonal shifts, and later received a diagnosis of CCCA, I experienced the same fear and confusion many women face. What surprised me most was how difficult it was to find clear, practical guidance specifically for Black women navigating hair and scalp changes in midlife.

Most information was either generic, incomplete or focused on short-term fixes. So I began researching — deeply.

I immersed myself in clinical research, studied scalp health and hair biology, and tested what I was learning against my own experience. Over time, patterns emerged. Not quick solutions, but clear causes, common misalignments and repeatable corrections that were rarely explained in one place.

That work became the foundation of everything I now offer. Today, I’m a Midlife Hair Health Specialist and the founder of CurlyCoilyTresses®, a science-informed, fragrance-free hair care line developed with the specific needs of Black women 40+ in mind.
