Widely recognised as Hollywood’s best hairstylist to the stars, Felicia Leatherwood is famed for her work with naturally kinky curly hair. Her larger-than-life career is built on her intimate knowledge and understanding of natural hair (and its care) on a deeper level–and she does it with her trademark flair, creativity, and wit.
In addition to her work leading workshops and panels about natural hair care in the U.S. and around the world, she works with a number of celebrity clients including Issa Rae, Will Smith, Nicole Ari Parker, Jill Scott, Lenny Kravitz, Viola Davis, Anthony Anderson as well as a host of entertainment executives and beauty entrepreneurs. Her magazine cover and editorial spread exposure include Vogue, Variety, Essence, Elle, and Ebony. Dubbed the “Hair Whisperer,” Leatherwood is a force of nature with a track record of creating decade-defining pop culture touchstones whilst inspiring a new generation of young women to embrace their natural hair.
Whether online, on Fox’s hit show “The Real” or in person, Leatherwood’s message is rooted in the idea of holistic health and fundamentally loving yourself, a truly inside-out approach to hair care. The award winning detangler hairbrush is the flagship product of her critically acclaimed hair product line, Brush With The Best.
