I first met Stephanie when I was experiencing hair loss and scalp issues, along with many others who were dealing with the same or worse, because we were all using a beloved curly hair product line that had changed its formula or packaging. Her help and advocacy for those following her on social media proved invaluable during a very scary time, leading some to join a class-action lawsuit against the brand.
In this episode, Stephanie offers a live consultation for me! And offers tips and tricks for anyone with curly hair.
Stephanie is a curly-hair specialist and clean-beauty advocate dedicated to helping people embrace their natural texture without compromising their health. With 10 years of hands-on experience working with curls of all patterns, she focuses on non-toxic, ingredient-conscious hair care that supports hair, scalp, and internal wellness. She helped bring the first clean line of curly hair products to market and developed her own supplement brand, Total Hair Plus, a powerful formula that rapidly restores hair growth and health. Stephanie is known for blending science-based formulation knowledge with simple curl care, empowering her clients to achieve naturally minimal-effort curls.
