MAVEN GARTH

SHINE Healthy Hair, Warm Spirit

PASSION Natural Hair, Looks Relaxed 

SALON Ebony Design . NYC

He hails from the "Land of the Blessed" as it is known by the Caribs. GARTH is a native of St.Vincent, north of Grenada, south of St. Lucia, and west of Barbados. 

In 1997 he moved to the U.S and began working in some of the premiere salons of Brooklyn and New York City. Though his love and passion was hair, GARTH has dabbled in Retail and the Airline industries prior to becoming the accomplished hair stylist he is today.

A seasoned hair care professional, he prides himself in having a genuine interest in your hair. His hair consultations include evaluating your lifestyle, hair texture, facial features and your hair goals.  GARTH is a 360 degree stylist with a robust affinity for color, bond & weave extensions, precision cuts, chemical relaxers & texturizers, but his newest passion is natural hair care.

"Not a lot of people take the time to do natural hair properly, deep conditioning is standard in my natural hair care services. Straightening natural hair (pressing, flat ironing, setting/blow drying) is time consuming, I specialize in helping women grow out their relaxed hair to natural healthy beautiful hair."  GARTH
