Healthy. Happy. Hair Therapy.
SC4Kids was founded to provide quality hair care for parents and their children between the ages of 2 – 18. The heart of our philosophy is to focus on healthy hair, happy girls and infusing our special brand of hair therapy so every one of our client’s leaves feeling better than when they came in.
Our mission is to:
- To partner with parents
- To encourage self-esteem
- To cultivate self-care in the early stages of life
- To provide a home for black, multi-ethnic families in Austin, and surrounding areas
- To advocate and be an open door for adoptive and foster families
By starting the kids off young we can help make a take-charge preschooler adopt healthy hygiene hair habits. To bring awareness during the adolescent stage of life helps create healthy hair habits when they are older. As a child I was not informed on my natural hair which created an unhealthy, reluctant, and severe insecurity as a tween/teen during hair time. I have been through this domino effect and my goal is to prevent other children from going through it.
We have made a conscious decision to gear my entire clientele to the youth. We apply techniques that work with each child’s temperament, special needs or sensory difficulties. We create a safe, trusting and fun environment for both kids and their parents! We are able to deal with those children for whom the thought of a hair cut fills them with dread and moves at your pace to make sure of comfort, and most importantly safety. We will also take the time to familiarize the children with the equipment, and encourage positive reinforcement. In addition, We use my platform as a way to reach children of all ages to succeed in achieving their goals as we promote their internal and external beauty.

I am what society calls an “Army Brat”. A true child of a career soldier, one who has lived in various places as a result of military transfers. The military planted me in Central Texas and I have resided and grown roots here since 1996. I love hair!!! I am a firm believer that hair care directly correlates to LIFESTYLE; and can demonstrate BEAUTY, CONFIDENCE, WELLNESS, and CREATIVITY!
