Stylush By Shawana

This is what 14 years of trust looks like. 🤍

I met Raven McQueen in 2012. When she first sat in my chair, her hair had been over-processed, broken, and wasn’t reaching its full potential.

We didn’t chase quick fixes. We committed to healthy hair through consistency, communication, treatments, roller sets, trims, and patience.

One of the things I admire most about Raven is that she has always trusted the process. Even when another stylist cares for her hair, she communicates what works best for it because she understands her hair.

Healthy hair isn’t built in one appointment. It’s built through a partnership between stylist and client, rooted in trust, education, and consistency.

Today, we continued her healthy hair journey with the Inebrya Ice Cream Keratin Restructuring Mask to strengthen and maintain the foundation we’ve built together.

Thank you, Raven, for trusting me for over a decade. Clients like you remind me that the greatest transformations don’t happen overnight. They happen one appointment at a time. 🤍

Healthy hair is built, not rushed.

When she said:
“I want richer brown… but NOT too dark.” 🤎☕️

Challenge accepted.

This service was all about:
✔️ resistant gray coverage
✔️ richer brunette depth
✔️ preserving curl integrity
✔️ keeping dimension + softness in natural sunlight ☀️

Customized with:
✨ Matrix color formulation
✨ K18 treatment
✨ Porosity control for even color absorption
✨ Pureology treatment for moisture + shine
✨ Precision shaping + finish work

Healthy hair ALWAYS comes first.
We refined the warmth, deepened the brunette, strengthened the hair, and kept every curl reflective and alive. Shawana Suitt Sierra

Final result:
🤎 Espresso mocha brunette
🤎 Cinnamon mocha reflections
🤎 Soft luxury curl definition
🤎 Healthy dimensional shine

Sunlight approved ☀️✨

The shirt is referencing Gospel of Matthew 18:21-22

“Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, ‘Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?’
Jesus answered, ‘I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.’”

Some translations say “70 times 7,” meaning forgiveness shouldn’t have a limit or scoreboard. 🕊️Kara N Kemba MasonShawana Suitt Sierra

Leaving 2025 with a full heart and stepping into 2026 feeling blessed ✨
Grateful for my family & friends who stayed close, and my workout crew for holding me accountable 💪🏽🤍
