BE THE CHANGE

you want to see

Hair Made Simple was founded out of the need for more comprehensive natural hair education for the Black community. Natural hair is a diverse gift that takes intentionality instead of a 1 size fits all method. While the natural hair movement has had traction for years, it can be hard to source through all of the noise on the internet to figure out what really works for you. Plus, YouTube videos do not talk back.

Hair Made Simple is here to encourage you in a space of community to shift your view of your natural hair and equip you with the education to  care for your hair. From discussion hair stigmas to products to routines to mindests, the Hair Made Simple Experience is built with you in mind and inspired by our founders journey along with those of her peers. With virtual group and 1-1 opportunities, your experience will fit you to simplify your hair.

YOUR PEACE OF MIND

is priceless

You deserve to find peace in the process of your hair. Hair serves as an extension of our bodies, and the way that we care for our health is an extension of how we care for ourselves. 

We spend so much money on our hair from going to hair dressers, barbers, braiders, trying new products, and everything in between. However, the day one of those things falls through can be the ultimate stress for some. While having these resources at hand is valuable, the peace of mind from understanding what is happening with your hair and being able to care for it is priceless.

Hair Made Simple is created to be that resource to equip you with the information to feel confident in your ability to care for your natural hair.

Shannon

Meet Your Hair Mentor

Hi! I’m Shannon, the founder of Hair Made Simple. Through my own life, research, and learned experiences, I have created this service to provide you with the tools and pathway you need to truly create your healthy hair journey and feel confident in caring for your hair. 

Starting at the age of 3, my mom took me to hair salons bi-weekly because she didn’t know what to do with my hair. Around middle school, I started to wear my hair straight regularly because that’s what I felt society deemed beautiful. This culminated in experiencing significant heat damage on a high school trip to college where I attempted to wear my hair straight for 20 days with no clue how to care for it. Still transitioning from significant heat damage, I was left alone with my hair in college. I begged others to do my hair, trying to avoid doing it myself and the expenses of seeing a regular stylist. Once a friend introduced me to flat twists, I realized that using heat-free natural styles was my best bet at restoring hair.

After years of trial and error with styles, conquering product allergies, another run in with heat damage, adjusting my mindset on beauty, I have come to a place of accepting my natural hair as gorgeous regardless of society’s standard. Additionally, I have been able to prioritize my hair health, see significant results, and provide this coaching service to others. 

I can’t wait to see you inside of the Hair Made Simple Group Experience (and our 1-1 sessions if you purchase the Premium Experience) and walk with you through your hair journey.

It is my honor to support you in your journey.

READ TESTIMONIALS

Shannon’s hair care consultation was a saving grace for my hair. She is very knowledgeable and professional. The consultation was very detailed.  Shannon inquired about my current hair care regimen, goals, and my overall health. After the consultation, I was provided with step by step guidance on the improvements necessary to achieve my goals. I could easily email a question or seek clarification and Shannon was readily available. Her responses were prompt and filled with resources to further assist me. I really loved the fact that the recommendations were tailored specifically for me and my hair care needs. I began to realize that the ingredients that I put into my hair are just as important as the ingredients that I put into my body.

Prior to my sessions with Shannon I did not really know much about dealing with natural hair, let alone understanding my own. Through her 8-week hair course I was introduced to so many aspects of caring for and loving my natural hair and embracing its beauty.
Dr. Aisha Ellis, Pilot Course Participant
Since initially speaking with Shannon about my hair needs, she’s been very professional, informative, and most importantly, nonjudgmental. Although growth was the goal, the biggest takeaway was the education I received about how to have healthier hair. She’s given me the dos and don’t’s on how to get the most out of my hair, and accountability regarding having a routine. Overall, working with Shannon has been awesome and I recommend you should as well, if you’re looking to take your hair to the next level.

After years of seeing hair growth after protective styles, only for it to go back to being stagnant, I finally wandered to the right place and that is with none other than THE Shannon Walker. I got tired of seeing white specks in my hair, seeing a lot of shedding, and simply not knowing how to maintain moisture so I reached out to Shannon. Shannon got clarity on my current hair routine, which wasn’t correct at all, we did the hair porosity examination, and then we explored products. While this is only week one of wearing twists all week and doing the LCO method, I can already see a change in my hair and I’m excited for the growth that’s already taking place.

I bought the Hair Made Simple course to treat myself. For so long I have considered my hair just something else for me to take care of, a beautiful but laborious burden. Shannon's class changed that for me. To be gentle, to cleanse, to detangle, and even to trim are necessary practices for healthy hair and a healthy life. Not only did I gain time with myself through this course - I connected with a community I didn't even know I needed.
