Meet Semajae: GYEB Personality of the Month
Some stylists do hair.
Semajae holds people.
That’s what it feels like when you sit in her chair. Like you’ve walked into a space where it’s okay to exhale. No pressure to impress. No need to shrink. Just peace, patience, and someone who actually cares about how you leave, inside and out.
We’re proud to name Semajae our Personality of the Month not just because she’s good at what she does, but because of how she does it.
Gentle. Focused. Grounded. She moves with intention, and that intention is always love.
She doesn’t just talk about self-love, she lives it.
She weaves it into every part of her work.
What sets Semajae apart isn’t loud. It’s not flashy or performative. It’s consistent. It's how she takes her time parting your hair. How she checks your scalp before picking up a comb. How she asks you about your week before she even plugs in the blow dryer.
Natural styles are her passion because she knows our hair doesn’t need to be hidden or fixed. It needs to be honored. Protected. Watered like a plant and treated with care—not tension. Not shame. And definitely not disrespect.
Whether she’s doing twists, braids, or a fresh silk press, she’s thinking about the health of your hair first. Always. It’s why her clients stay loyal. You don’t have to guess if she’s doing what’s best for you. She already is.
Her Journey Is Quiet Strength
You won’t catch Semajae doing the most online.
That’s not her lane. Her work speaks loud enough.
She’s a licensed stylist, a newlywed, and a steady light in her community. Behind every braid is a story, a lesson, or a moment she’s been through herself. She doesn’t make a show out of her resilience, but trust, it’s there.
She’s overcome real things. Hard things. And instead of turning cold, she leaned deeper into softness. Into service. Into showing up the way she wished someone would’ve shown up for her.
That’s why her chair feels like home. Because she made it that way.
Her GYEB Go-Tos
When it comes to GYEB products, Semajae keeps it simple and smart:
- Our Braiding Gel is her must-have. Clean parts. Crisp finishes. Long-lasting styles. No flaking, no drama.
- Our Growth Oil: She recommends it like it’s a prayer, consistently and with love. Especially for her clients on a growth journey who need a product that truly supports them from the scalp up.
And look—we ain’t mad. That combo right there? That’s the foundation for so many of her signature styles. Healthy, sleek, and real.
The Quiet Power of Being Yourself
There’s something refreshing about a stylist who doesn’t try to sell you a fantasy. Semajae reminds you that you are enough right now. With your texture. Your volume. Your edges, whether full or coming back. She sees what’s beautiful in you and styles you in a way that helps you see it too.
In a world that’s loud and fast and always pushing us to change, she’s a soft reminder to slow down and appreciate what we already are. And that’s why she’s so special to us.
Because at Grow Your Edges Back, we’re not chasing trends—we’re honoring truth.
And Semajae lives that truth every day in her salon, in her energy, and in her care.
We See You, Sis
To Semajae:
We love the way you pour into people.
We love how you let your work speak without shouting.
We love that you carry your gifts with grace and give your clients room to feel safe, held, and whole.
Thank you for choosing softness.
For choosing care.
For choosing yourself and showing other women they can, too.
You’re more than a stylist.
You’re someone who gives people a reason to keep going.
And this month, we just wanted to make sure you knew: we see you.
