We aren’t gonna sleep on this one. ☝🏽

First of all, I know I say this all the time but it takes COURAGE to sit down in a chair and trust someone with your curls. There’s 2 options, either you love it or you hate it….And thats intimidating!

The good news is, we’ve all been there too. We’ve sat down in a curly salon for the first appointment ever and we were just as nervous as you were. Sadly we’ve also been through the bad haircuts and over-processed hair at a curly salon and that is what makes us different. Bc we’ve had bad experiences ourselves, we know what not to do. At For the Curls Jax we can bring you a curated level of curly hair care, education, and an elevated salon experience. With our combined 12+ years of curly training you’re sure to love not just your hair or the experience but also yourself…. There’s a reason why people drive over an hour to come see us….juuuuuust saying! 🤷🏽‍♀️

If you find yourself seeing this post and wanting to make an appointment but seem nervous or have questions prior to booking, I’d love for you to leave your questions below! 👇🏽

My heart is so overjoyed and so full after our grand opening this weekend 🥹🤍

I truly can’t thank you all enough for showing up, supporting me and my team, and celebrating the growth of For the Curls Jax — your Jacksonville curly hair salon. Having you there meant more to me than you know. And for my family to travel from Alabama to share this special moment with me…I’m in tears.

Being able to dedicate this space to Jesus in prayer before the ribbon cutting is a moment I will carry with me forever.

And to those of you who couldn’t make it, we missed you and can’t wait to welcome you into the new salon space soon 💗 Come see us… we’re ready for you.

Love Naya, Nina, Jess, & Marilyn

Special thanks to our vendors and photography team:

Introducing Marilyn 🤍✨

Marilyn’s personal hair journey is what brought her here, and you can feel that the second you sit in her chair. She genuinely cares about helping you embrace your natural beauty and feel confident in your curls.

She’s all about healthy, beautiful curls through intentional scalp care and overall hair wellness. As a certified hair spa specialist, her appointments are super calming, thoughtful, and focused on taking care of you just as much as your hair.

She’s also bilingual, which we LOVE, and it allows her to connect with and serve even more of our curly community.

And yes… she’s your Saturday girl 👏🏽
So if weekends are your only time, she’s got you.

She’s big on faith, family, and bringing that same love and intention into every appointment.

Also… quick warning 😂 don’t go bowling with her unless you’re ready to lose 🎳 and if there’s seafood involved, she’s already saying yes.

We are so grateful to have her on the For the Curls Jax team and cannot wait for you to sit in her chair 🤍

Introducing Nina 🤍✨

Your local curl friend and Jacksonville native with 3 years behind the chair… and she’s just getting started 💫

Nina specializes in healthy, defined, lived-in curls that are fully customized to you. She’s all about intentional appointments, real conversations, and making sure you leave the chair feeling like THAT girl 💅🏽✨

Bonus… she has evening and Saturday availability 👏🏽
So if you’ve been waiting for more flexible booking options, Nina is your girl.

When she’s not in the salon, you can find her trying new restaurants around Jax, sipping matcha, or out on walks with her husband 🤍

We are so excited to have her on the team and cannot wait for you to sit in her chair. You’re going to love her!

Introducing Jess 🤍✨

Our Brooklyn-born, Nuyorican beauty with a heart for faith, family, and curls.

After restoring her own natural hair, Jess found her purpose in helping others embrace theirs. Now a Curly Hair Specialist and Trichologist here in Northeast Florida, she’s all about helping you understand your hair, care for it properly, and walk out feeling confident every single time.

A few fun things about Jess…
She’s a fashionista on a budget, sings on her church’s worship team 🎶, and if there’s shopping involved (especially Amazon), she’s already there 😂

Favorite foods? Puerto Rican dishes and NY pizza — because Brooklyn never leaves you.

We are so blessed to have her as part of the For the Curls Jax family. You’re going to love her just as much as we do 🤍

First visit and she said… let’s do it ALL ✨

Full transformation, I mean the whole nine yards! And it was so worth it. There’s nothing better than seeing a client finally take that time for herself, sit in the chair, and just be taken care of.

She was wayyyy overdue for some mommy time, and watching her light up at the end made it all even more special. We are OBSESSED… but most importantly, she loved it 🤍

Introducing your For the Curls Jax salon team 🥹

Vulnerable moment… looking at these photos has my eyes watery with overwhelming joy. This is my dream. This is what I worked so hard for. And even more than that… this is what I prayed for.

It’s wild to think that this time last year I was only booked out one week. Yes… one week. And now, to be booked so far out that I needed help to reach all the curls in Jacksonville… it truly feels like a miracle. Only the Lord could take something small, grow it under pressure, and turn it into something this beautiful and special to my heart.

Jess & Marilyn, I am beyond grateful for you both. I’m so excited to walk alongside you and see what the Lord is going to do in your lives. Where two or more are gathered, He is in the midst — and I just know this is going to be so incredibly blessed.

Here’s to my business baby growing, blooming, and becoming something even more magical than I ever imagined 🥹🩷✨

Ps: special shout out to .company for the pics and for the studio space!

Thankfulness doesn’t even cover it.

I’ve been blessed to be able to take education classes every year to increase my knowledge on curly hair. But the best part is the life-long friends I’ve made along the way, and the amazing educators who’ve grown into my biggest cheerleaders.

Here’s to you for putting the space together to learn, thrive, and build relationships. I wouldn’t be where I am behind the chair without people like you. Those who see the need, and not only fill it, but make it over-flow. 🩷

So thankful for my Forever Curls Family!
