Meet Solange

Humidity is my home turf.

I grew up in Opelousas with a grandmother who set her curls in pin rollers every Saturday and swore by aloe from the backyard. South Louisiana air does whatever it wants to curly hair, so I made it my life’s work to build curls that win anyway.

I opened my suite downtown in 2014 after six years on the floor of a busy Baton Rouge salon. Here it’s just me, a steamer, a playlist of zydeco and soul, and you. I cut, hydrate and define, then make sure you can do it yourself on a Tuesday night.

Sample client reviews

Kind words from the chair

I live on the bayou and my curls used to give up by noon. Solange’s define lasts me four days now, even in August.
Brielle T.Curl cut + define
She transitioned me off the relaxer over three visits and never once made me feel bad about my ends.
Monique A.Big curl transformation
The steam ritual is the best ninety minutes of my month. I leave with bounce I can’t get at home.

Good to know

Questions, answered

How should I come in?

Curls out, no heavy gel, worn the way you usually wear them. I want to see your real day-two hair.

Do you cut wet or dry?

Dry, curl by curl, then I cleanse and define. It’s the only way I trust the length.

What curl types do you work with?

Mostly 2C through 4A. For tighter coils I’ll still see you, and I’ll be honest about what I specialize in.

How do I fight the humidity?

Hydration first, then a strong hold. I’ll show you the exact layering in your appointment.

Can I bring my own products?

Absolutely. I’d rather teach you with what’s already in your shower.

Do you travel for weddings?

Within Southwest Louisiana, yes. Text me your date and venue.
