Hair, Healing, and Coming Back to Your Truest Self

Hi, I’m Maila:  hairstylist, somatic practitioner, and believer that beauty and healing belong together.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve used hair and makeup as a way to express myself. As a little girl, I’d spend hours experimenting with colors and styles, knowing deep down that this was my art form. Becoming a stylist was never a question, it was the clearest yes.

Over the past 15 years, I’ve specialized in grey coverage, lived-in highlights, and holistic self-care. My chair at Maven & Co Collective is so much more than just a place for fresh color or a trim,  it’s a space for grounding, breath, and coming back home to yourself.

where Beauty Meets Nervous System Healing

My journey into somatic work began when a client mentioned meditation. I was already drawn to yoga, so I started meditating and journaling. When I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression, mindfulness became my tool for survival.

That path led me to certifications in life coaching, meditation, NLP, breathwork, Reiki, and somatic practices. Along the way, I realized something important: hairstylists are already healers. We listen. We hold. We witness. Merging nervous system support with the art of hair was the natural next step.

What My Clients Often Feel Before Finding Me

Overwhelmed and disconnected from their bodies

Tired of one-size-fits-all solutions in both beauty and healing

Longing for safety, self-trust, and a way to feel like themselves again

How I Guide Differently

I don’t follow a cookie-cutter method,  every person who sits in my chair or joins me for coaching is met exactly where they are. You can count on me to listen deeply, hold space with an open heart, and co-create a path that makes sense for you.

Beauty and healing are woven together in the way you show up, the way you feel in your body, and the way you express yourself in the world.

After working with me - whether through hair or somatic coaching - you’ll feel more like yourself, maybe for the first time in your life. You’ll have tools to regulate your nervous system, permission to trust your body again, and the confidence to embody your truest expression.
