New salon dedicated to curly hair opens in Bournemouth

Bournemouth: The Curl Specialist Bournemouth just opened its doors. Founded by Jen Gaia, this salon focuses on curly hair. It aims to transform how people with curls experience hair care.

Jen started her journey to become a curl specialist because traditional training often overlooks curly hair. She wanted to fill that gap. After learning from industry leaders, she now understands all curl types, from loose waves to tight coils.

The salon offers a unique menu of “Hair Rituals” tailored to each client. Signature services include The First Light, Blessed Energy, and The Divine Balance. Jen believes it’s not just about haircuts; it’s about helping clients embrace their natural curls.

Clients can enjoy a warm, rustic retreat upstairs. It features reclining bed basins for comfort and options for quiet appointments. Downstairs, there are spacious therapy rooms for holistic treatments, focusing on both outer and inner peace.

The salon is eco-conscious, emphasizing waste reduction, animal welfare, and community support. They use B Corp-certified products and practice water and energy conservation. Jen’s commitment to sustainability is evident in every aspect of her business.

Inclusivity is also a priority. The salon has gender-neutral pricing and hosts monthly pay-as-you-can days for those needing specialized care. Jen plans to offer free curl care classes for foster carers, fostering a sense of belonging and community.
