About CCM Hair
Studio
As
a boy growing up in Jamaica, the idea of men doing hair was not even
discussed. But I was still captivated by the happiness and love that
people manifested once their hair was done. The electric boost to their
self-esteem amazed me. The possibility of making someone that happy, by
simply doing their hair fascinated me, and at the same time tortured.
Because I was scolded every time I tried to do hair, my dream went
unfulfilled.
I simply went through life
working in retail to pay the bills to support myself. After getting
downsized from Banana Republic, where I was responsible for training
cashiers and keeping track of the money in the store-I did this for four
years-I thought for sure that my life hit a huge pothole. During my job
search nightmare in the weeks that followed, I felt completely lost. Did
I really want just another job? What would it take for me to be happy in
a job?
As soon as those questions
were blurted out, a friend asked me to run a beauty parlor. The prospect
of doing hair walked back into my life. From this opportunity I took the
time to inhale the business aspect of running a shop, while also
learning techniques from the different beauticians. When I finally moved
to a bigger and larger shop with more responsibilities, I knew it was
time for me to take that leap of faith. With God and my grandmother as a
guide, I founded Simply Marvelous, and started working from home. This
also gave me a chance to spend more time with my son.
Each person that walks
through my front door, gets the treatment that I would demand for my own
hair. I wash, condition, dye, and when needed give you a hot oil
treatment to restore your hairs volume and strength. I've worked with
scary about to fall of your head locks, locks started with half-way
permed hair, locks overrun with bubbles and lint, and they have walked
away feeling like a new person, coming back for more. My technique of
doing hair definitely gives your hair a beautiful figure and definite
lift-off.
You can wear your hair
straight, wavy, curly, up-sweep or braided. Twisting hair is not about
making money to pay the bills, it is about giving you that confidence to
take on the world. Because to be honest, when you look good, I look
good. The name of my business now is CCM Hair Studio - still run from my
home - but as the saying goes. If you build it, they will come. The shop
will be a future attraction where your hair and spirit will get my
undivided attention. The same as it is at my house.
Hopefully I'll see you
soon, my door is always open.
