Meet Anyea:
As a curly-haired child of color, Anyea struggled to wear her curls and knew that if she couldn’t find someone to understand her curls, she would become that someone.
A cultivated stylist for over 15 years, Anyea has honed her craft in Hawaii, SoCal, the East Coast, and now, the Bay Area. She pulls inspiration from music, nature, and education to create intuitive curl cuts. She is best known for her rounded curl cuts that embrace frizz, take up space, and encourage movement within their shape.
