Peace & Blessings-
My name is Kalae (pronunced 'Kuh-LAY.) I'm a Licensed Hair Braiding Specialist (TX) and I specialize in Natural Hair Care.
As Sankofa, I offer natural hair care using a holistic approach that is full of appreciation for the curl pattern that is unique to African heritage. Hair is so much more than just what grows on our head, and it is a liberating & healing experience to develop an acceptance and love for the one you see in the mirror as who you are designed to be. My number one concern is the health of a client's hair & scalp, and caring for natural hair must be done with integrity.

What to expect during your Consultation
Your first appointment with me can be a Consultation or Consultation/Service combination. We will discuss your personal hair history, the current condition of your scalp & hair, simple solutions to any existing concerns, short and long-term goals for your hair, and more. Have your current products or a list of what you normally use available so that we may compare ingredients and discuss the effects/benefits they have on our hair.
Integrity, Honesty, & Trust as Standards of Practice
I will not perform services if hair is too fragile for the requested style. If this is the case, options may be discussed for styling choices that can be used while we go through the process of conditioning the scalp & re-growng hair.
I consider the current condition of hair and scalp when styling. Styles are done in ways that minimize stress on the hair follicle, especially around the edges or hairline. Extensions and Locs are installed using traditional methods that have a far-reaching history and the result is a beautifully natural appearance.

The Products I Use
I use pure botanical products ONLY. This includes botanical oils (hempseed, coconut, avocado, macadamia nut, etc.), nut butters (shea, cocoa, etc.), authentic African Black Soap, medicinal herbs and essential oils (Rosemary, Lemongrass, Lavender, etc.). These all-natural ingredients will not weigh hair down & cause build-up between washings. They also provide deep conditioning because they are more easily absorbed by the hair & skin than commercial products.
