ABOUT ME

You Are Your Hair! 

"I think the best thing a woman can have, next to her talent, is of course her hairdresser" 

My name is Onika Cooper and I am often described as charismatic and persuasive. I am 21 years of age and I live at St. Mary's Village Moruga Road, Princes Town, Trinidad. This blog focuses on promoting and sharing my natural skills as a hairstylist and also attracting new clients. My expertise is essentially in photography, public speaking, advertising and media, journalism, community relations, youth work and hairdressing. I am particularly equipped with natural skills for braiding, styling, crocheting, interlocking and a lot more. I am also an innovative hairstylist, successful at experimenting with new approaches, techniques, and styles for various types and textures of hair. I thrive under pressure and I am inspired by an artistic challenge.

I started doing my own hair at the age of eleven and eventually began braiding family members and my close friends' hair as well. Hairdressing is an intrinsic skill I developed and mastered through practice. I can do practically any style a client presents me with, taking into consideration that I do my own hair most times as well. I am intact with nature as a conscious female hence the reason I always promote natural hair or at least extensions and styles that may posses a natural look or 'effect'. Nevertheless I style absolutely any type of hair and I gain joy and love in doing so.

Also, because of my photography expertise, I possess excellent graphic skills through advertising my photography and hairstyles. I am familiar with what makes a great shot or powerful image and employ diverse technical knowledge and artistic abilities. I am specialized in wedding, fashion and Events photography. I strive to be a superb leader and teacher by sharing my skills as a hairstylist and various techniques that women can apply to their everyday hair styling. This blog will also offer photographic, as well as video tutorials on how to do a variety of hairstyles including the senegalese twist, box braiding, crocheting and may more. I do hair by appointments since I balance a full time job, nevertheless feel free to contact me to book your appointment today. In all, I am highly motivated and I specially enjoy transforming women hair and facilitating their 'hair confidence'.
