Samri M.
Protective Stylist
Guest Stylist -- Please contact us for Oakland schedule
Samri has been styling natural hair with protective styles for over six years. She got her start at Naza Beauty, a beauty startup and a protective styling salon in San Francisco. During her time, she helped develop styling standards as well as lead workshops for new braiders and stylists. She is amazing at bringing her client's visions to life with her own special flair. She’s a great listener and will deliver upon request, whether it is your usual look or inspiring you to try something new.
Currently, Samri is enrolled in a cosmetology program to pursue mastery of curl care, cut, and color. She is an apprentice/assisting stylist at Salon Mer. Samri’s long-term vision is to fill in the gap of the disproportionately low number of professional stylists who understand how to work with the intricacies of textured hair and to ultimately inspire hair love at any stage.
