Helping Memphis girls grow into confident leaders
Through self-care and mentorship, we show every girl she is worthy, capable, and loved.
“Where confidence begins in the chair.”
Our Mission
We help girls who face barriers in Memphis grow into strong, confident leaders. We use the everyday act of self-care, starting in the hair salon chair, to teach them that they are worthy, capable, and loved.

What We Do
Beauty In Me Academy
A 12-month program. Twice a month, girls get self-care in the chair plus mentoring on confidence, goals, and leadership — ending with a December graduation.
Back-to-School Beauty Day
A free community event where selected girls get a shampoo and style for school, with food, music, and a backpack drive for all.
Purpose
The salon chair is a place girls already feel safe. While a girl is in the chair, a caring mentor sits beside her, talking about confidence, goals, and getting through hard days. She learns that taking care of herself is a form of self-respect. Many of these girls don't have a steady adult in their corner. We become that corner, and help each girl see her own worth.
