As a modern cosmetologist and instructor, I believe education is what keeps our field alive and relevant. Trends change, products evolve, and science keeps uncovering new ways to understand hair health. That’s why I’m committed to learning, not just teaching.
Recently, I completed a course in Pilonomy and became a first-generation Pilonomist. Pilonomy is a radical approach to hair care that is rooted in integrity, wellness, and science. It’s about treating the hair not just as something to style, but as something to steward—with respect for the person it belongs to and the body it grows from.
This new perspective has already begun shaping the way I approach both the classroom and the salon chair. It’s about more than looking good—it’s about feeling good, honoring the integrity of the hair, and connecting beauty to wellness.
