Welcome
Natural hair and henna
​
I've been loving hair for almost 40 years and I am excited to connect with you! I bring together skilled cutting, organic henna hair color, healthy energy support, and a loving heart.
​
Now in two locations:
Berkeley
Grass Valley Area
​
Wherever we meet, I strive for a peaceful and intimate setting where we can connect one-on-one with intention to build a beautiful synergy between you and your hair.
​
​
​
I have worked with all kinds of natural hair from myriad cultures, as well as people with all kinds of abilities. No matter your ethnic build, or whether you are energetically or chemically sensitive, neuro-special, have some physical challenge, or just want undivided personal attention in a lovely calm non-toxic environment (or your home setting for Mobile cuts and henna), I am happy to meet you as you are.
​
Low maintenance and long lasting cuts and henna color are the hallmark of my hand, and a spirit of well-being is the hallmark of our time together.
I approach hair and life from an artistic, energetic, and organic point of view. I have a firm foundation in exceptional and precise technique with training from most of the well known schools (Sassoon, Yosh, Jingles, The Rusks, Henry L, etc...) and additional come from a hairdresser family. But over the years I have developed my own techniques that honor the natural and perfect movement of your own hair. Rather than forcing a cut onto your hair, I carve into your own movement to create shape and flow very much how a wood carver honors a piece of wood. I create an easy wear and care look that is a beautiful and harmonious expression that feels good inside and out.
I am entranced by nature and its graceful lines and form, so that naturally extends to my work with hair, with the natural earth pigments like henna, or my ceramic or tea art.
​
During our time together, I am sensitive to your energy and listen to your desires for direction, then combine skilled scissor work or henna color with compassion and skill. I prefer to allow the natural movement of your hair to be prominent and suggest little to no drying and tool styling. Always I am holding a loving heart for your highest well-being and am happy to offer suggestions and support for how to wear your hair naturally.
​
I look forward to having some meaningful and genuine connection while we spruce your hair and spirit into its beautiful and natural flow.
​
I look forward to seeing you soon!

"Best haircut of my life! Jenn was just so thoughtful and in tune with my hair needs. She took the time and care to understand what would make me happy and made it happen. Never would have thought I'd have such a spiritual experience with hair. Her salon is also beautiful and calming. I felt like I had a mini retreat."
