I am a licensed cosmetologist and professional makeup artist based in Dallas, TX.

My passion for styling diverse hair types and textures began at the Paul Mitchell The School in Dallas, where I honed my skills and developed a deep appreciation for the art of hair and makeup.

​

As the owner and founder of JCren's High Maintenance, I specialize in various services, including natural and mixed textured hair, braiding, locs, men’s and women’s haircuts, hairstyling, hair coloring, extensions, and bridal hair and makeup. With nearly a decade of experience, I have cultivated a well-rounded expertise in the beauty industry.

​

My professional journey includes roles as Lead Artist for wedding companies, Assistant Makeup Artist on the set of the TV series “1883,” and Lead Hairstylist for specialty and private events.

 

I have had the honor of serving as an instructor at the 2023 and 2024 World Natural Hair Show by Taliah Waajid in Atlanta GA, as well as working on set as a hairstylist and makeup artist for various production companies.

 

I am proud to have been recognized as a "2021 Finalist" and "2023 Stylist of the Year" at the Texture Style Awards by Monae Everett of Mee York.

​

As a single mother of two, I am grateful for the opportunity to provide for my children while pursuing my passion for beauty and artistry!
