My name is Starresha Renae, you may know me as The Curl Whisperer Of Chicago.
I’ve been doing this hair thing for 9 years and yes, I still love it.
Just a little about myself, I was born and raised on Chicago’s north side and that’s where my career began, At Tricoci University of Beauty Culture.
After about 3 years into hair styling, I decided to focus more on the aesthetic for women of color through textured hair care.
I have been doing natural hair exclusively since 2014. I chose the route to stop using chemicals, to kill the idea that our hair was unmanageable.
At that time I had just went natural and had been working for a curly hair DevaCurl salon for about a year and a half.
I, then decided to branch off and open up my own salon suite The Curl Whisperer of Chicago in the Lakeview East neighborhood to specifically focus on type 4 hair. I’m now currently a freelance stylist on Chicago’s South Side.
I am certified in DevaCurl Cutting and Pintura coloring, as well as Schwarzkopf Color Expert, with a plethora of other curly hair trainings under my belt.
My specialty is Client Education. For me, it is important that I break the stereotype that stylist don’t educate. So, I try to educate my clients on everything that I know, and all that I know to better their hair experience at home.
So if you could tolerate bold honesty, slight sarcasm and fact based point of view. Than I am the stylist you’re looking for.
