Hi, I’m Shannon—

Just a girl who once thought doing her hair was impossible and now the founder of

Your Hair Made Simple.

Through my own life and learned experiences,

I have learned 2 things: 

  1. Starting a natural hair journey isn’t necessarily hard in the way we think—it’s just new. And like any new skill, it requires time, patience, and grace.

  2. Focusing on hair health, embracing a healthy hair mindset, allows everything else to fall into place. When you set out to understand your hair and what is healthiest for you, you will see your hair become an integral, thriving part of your identity.

Welcome to the community—

I’m excited to help you thrive!

After overcoming challenges like straight-hair bias, heat damage, product allergens, and the trial-and-error of learning my hair’s needs over the past 10+ years, I’ve developed a deep passion for helping others focus on hair health over length or a particular aesthetic.

With a B.A. in Communication Studies, a Master’s in Education, and years of experience in community engagement, workshop creation, and learning program development, I’ve combined my skills and passion to create Your Hair Made Simple. This platform is designed to empower others to embrace their natural hair and discover the confidence that comes with understanding and celebrating its beauty.
