Empower Her Essence

👩🏽‍🦱 About Me

Hey there! I’m Dominique, the hands behind Empower Her Essence. I’m a passionate Natural Hair Care Stylist based in Upper Marlboro, MD, and I specialize in creating protective styles that not only look flawless but also support the health and growth of your natural hair.

What started as a personal love for doing hair grew into a business built on trust, consistency, and care. I’ve been braiding and styling for years, and nothing brings me more joy than helping women and young girls feel confident, beautiful, and empowered through their crown.

At Empower Her Essence, I provide tension-free, clean, and long-lasting installs—from knotless braids and boho styles to soft locs, sew-ins, and natural styles. My home-based studio is quiet, welcoming, and safe. It’s a space where clients of all ages and backgrounds can relax, feel seen, and leave feeling renewed.

I take pride in being gentle, professional, and detail-oriented. I understand that every head of hair is different, so I treat each client with the care and attention their hair deserves. Whether you’re getting ready for vacation, a special event, or just want to refresh your look, I’m here to bring your hair vision to life.

This isn’t just about styling—it’s about self-care, self-love, and empowerment.

Thank you for considering Empower Her Essence. I can’t wait to have you in my chair. 💕
