Hi, Carleen Sanchez here and I am excited to help you discover your authentic curl self!! Me? I lived a lifetime without realizing my natural beauty. I was a pro snowboarder for six years; the world champion of mountain boarding in 1999; a radio DJ in Hawaii for three years and I even studied and practiced as a hair stylist for10 years before embracing my true identity as a curly girl.
My curls have been through it all – breakage from Keratin treatments, singed by straight irons, damaged from constant heat-intensive blowouts, you name it. Finally, in 2012, I had enough. That’s when I decided to learn the Curly Girl method. Since then, I have had nothing but love for my curls. I have devoted these last 10 years to giving that same gift to others like you.
Throughout this journey, I have discovered something deeper: an opportunity to provide an experience that goes beyond hair. Apart from hair, my passion is making others feel better, mind, body and soul. When I was able to install the salon in my home, I made efforts to fill the salon with positive energy. The walls are covered in colorful handmade art; the air is rich with calming scents of aromatherapy; there are free snacks and a complimentary beverage menu to enjoy. After suffering from a chronic pain issue, I began to explore mind-body healing methods to incorporate into your salon experience. I now offer a holistic, healing approach to your salon services that includes gifts of healing crystals, Reiki energy work, Deep Blue shoulder massage, a crown and heart chakra sound bath and more.
