My name is Christiana (pronounced Kris-Tee-Awn-Uh).
Over the last decade, I have had the joyous and challenging privilege of being a hairstylist. Learning and expanding in my career and craft of hair artistry over the years, all the while learning, growing, and becoming more self-aware as an individual out in the world. From understanding and sitting with my own sensitivities and special needs as highly sensitive person, I extend my offering as an hairstylist, a space that welcomes and celebrates your whole self. That no matter what your age, body size, identity, sensory needs, & gender expression may be, you are welcomed and celebrated here.
Working with people, co-creating a safe space, and connecting over a haircut is truly my calling & passion, to the core, so, your curiosity has allowed our paths to meet at this space. Thank you for being here!
To feel whole, we need to feel heard. My craft is creating a personalized experience of healing and transformation, with haircuts that grow out effortlessly. Whether you know exactly what you want, or not, this will be a hair cutting experience you wont forget. Welcoming ALL hair types from fine & straight, to curly & textured. The purpose of our session is to rid the brittle and heavy ends, right? We are also releasing stuck and stagnant energy, so that we may get clear on what we want, while allowing our whole self to be seen & supported, just as we are. Here and now, through it all.
Love is, after all, at the root of all healing. Love is a noun, though it is also an action word. My own journey of accepting and loving myself, brought me to my spiritual path —seeing all Beings as worthy of love, acceptance, and celebration, has to include myself —and that includes you, whether you know it or not! The energy work that is offered as a result of my own spiritual journey, is deeply intuitive, rooted in Love and infused throughout our session together. Often felt as warm blanket of peace, honoring, in my own way, Usui Reiki, the Japanese energy healing practice.
I deeply care about radical authenticity, and radical self-acceptance. To me, that starts with being curious about our relationship to self, & our own inner critic. Am I comparing myself to my past, or “ideals” of what society’s perception of beauty is? Why is youthfulness seen in a certain light, and aging seen in another? Can I see my beauty and worth just as I am? Where can I acknowledge and release conditioning and seek to honor my true self?
These are important thoughts to consider when choosing to live a life authentically. So to me, your self expression, our experience, and the hair that we co-create in a session is a part of your healing journey --your journey to becoming more You.
We are all unique and special. There is room for us all to get to know ourselves more, and take up space fully owning who we are. That means, the things that make us unique are the things that make us special. This is something that I’ve come to know, understand and own. This work I have come to know and my craft, is unique because I am.
What I have to offer you is more than a haircut, because there is love woven into the fabric of my work, impacting on a level that, I too, am sometimes surprised by. We are all deserving of love, to feel heard and seen, right where we’re at. Thats why my work is Naturally Healing. There’s no wands waved, or hands raised that changes it all, but, to be reminded that we are okay, right where we're at; with compassion, acceptance, and support along the way, we can walk forward feeling lighter. Allow me to support you feeling more yourself when you leave the chair, and when you see that person looking back at you in the mirror.
