Did a lot of reflecting this week and here’s what I realized 🪄

1. Being fully booked and doing hair everyday isn’t enough. It’s the bare minimum in business now days. We have to elevate beyond the chair

2. It’s okay to start over.
It’s okay to expand, remove services, add new ones, or even do a full 180. Growth sometimes requires change. 

It’s also okay to rebrand.
Nothing has to stay the same forever, and you don’t have to keep doing things the same way either.

3. Another thing I’m learning is that it’s okay to take breaks.
Too often I find myself working up to 18 hours straight off 4 bottles of water and a couple snacks, skipping breakfast and not eating a real meal until midnight. That’s something I’m actively working on changing.

4. I don’t want to just be a braider but if so I urgently need to find a niche lol…

5. Prioritizing life outside of the chair.
Whether it’s trying new restaurants, taking a fitness class, going to local events, or enjoying an outing. Just living a little more outside of work.

6. And most importantly… standing on business.
After-hours services come with after-hours pricing ($75 additional). Late and cancellation fees will be enforced when communication is absent. Let’s continue to create a great space!

New clients are always welcomed! Can’t wait to meet you all🤗

CEO here🫶🏾

I don’t talk much about myself here so let me introduce myself. My name is G’Arrie, pronounced “G-Ari” but please call me G🤍

I’ve been a full-time hairstylist for the last 3 years, but my love for hair started long before that. Growing up, I was just your active teen (playing sports, doing cheer, track, and basketball, and always exploring new ways to express myself).

I fell in love with doing my own hair watching hour-long YouTube tutorials and experimenting with styles. In middle school, I noticed everyone around me getting braids at African braid shops, and I wanted in but I’d always had permed hair and never had braids. So, my freshman year of high school, I stopped perming and embraced my natural hair, buying my first pack of braiding hair for just $1.98. That moment changed everything.
I never looked back.

By my last two years of high school, my hair was catching so many eyes and everyone was always curious as to who had done my hair. I’m a tall girl so I would braid my hair to the floor which made so many people wanted to book with me. I didn’t have social media at the time so my teammates finally convinced me to make a hair page. Three years ago, I officially started sharing my work online, and it’s been an amazing journey ever since.

My passion for hair is unmatched. I love creating, transforming, and empowering people through their hair!

5 quick facts about me:
	•	My first paying client was my cousin from ATL (2021), and that showed me my worth.
	•	My favorite styles to do are men’s braids and two-strand twists.
	•	I’m very family-oriented, raised by my GMA and great GMA.
	•	I’m 21 years old (which often surprises my clients!).
	•	My first love is cheerleading.

I’m so excited to connect with new and returning clients! If you’re in Tampa, Brandon, or surrounding areas in Florida and ready for your transformation, click the link in my bio 🔗

Let’s talk about it.

WHAT THE FREAK is “90-day braids”??? “Braids are for little girls”??? 😭😭😭

Here’s me, consistently booked for braids while the internet is busy convincing everybody that braids are a “broke girl hairstyle” or “childish.” 🤷🏾‍♀️🥱

Let’s be real. Most of the time, it’s not even about the braids or the braider. It’s the personal relationship YOU have with braids and how YOU feel wearing them.

If braids aren’t for you, that’s perfectly fine. But saying they’re childish or a “broke girl hairstyle” is where the conversation gets interesting. 🥴

There are 30+ braid styles alone! Different sizes, lengths, textures and colors. You can get 30+ inches, extra fullness, human hair curls and custom color. Some styles take HOURS and cost hundreds of dollars. So how exactly did braids become a broke girl hairstyle or childish? 😭

And let’s be honest about the texturism and colorism in these conversations too.

Because when Latto or Jayda Wayda steps out in braids, suddenly everybody is inspired, recreating the look and calling it a moment. 👀😬

So where’s the disconnect?

Come back with me. 😂

You can keep the think pieces. I’ll keep making women fall in love with their braids. 🤭

Birthday coming up? Fall season coming up? Trip coming up? You don’t even need a reason to get braids. 🥰

SEPT SLOTS GOING FAST! Book through the link in my bio and let’s get you together!

This one is for the girls who LOVE a FULL, CURLY look without all the weight or tension 🔥 Miracle Knots are FOR YOU!

Everybody loves the Gypsy/Bora Bora look, but not everybody wants to sit 10+ hours or spend hundreds on the style. Miracle Knots give you that same full, boho vibe in a lighter, more natural way for a fraction of the price!

LIGHTWEIGHT ✅
LOW TENSION ✅
PROTECTIVE ✅ 
PROMOTES GROWTH✅
 PREVENTS BREAKAGE✅

Absolutely no braiding hair is used and can be washed and resided multiple times! 

Want this exact look? Book “Smedium miracle knotless braids” + “4 bundles added” or “5 bundles added” 

She had 5 bundles of 20in Burmese water curly from @ywigs_official and we used 4.5

I rebuke this entire list 😭🙏🏽

May every client communicate, show up on time, pay in full, and love their hair. Amen.

Service providers, which one is your biggest fear? Mine is definitely a tie between a negative unprovoked TikTok story time being made about me and someone disputing a style I spent hours on😭 #explorepage #tampabraider #tampahairstylist #brandonbraider #wesleychapelbraider taken in Tampa, Florida by @gbraidedyou
