Based in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, Lori is the founder and lead stylist of Noirae Studios, bringing over 18 years of experience and a lifelong passion for the art of hairstyling.

Her journey began in Jamaica at just five years old, where her love for hair first took shape. What started as something she simply loved doing gradually became a craft she would dedicate years of her life to perfecting.

Throughout her journey, Lori has developed a love for all aspects of hair, from natural hair care and protective styling to locs, extensions, and creating beautiful, personalized looks. But behind her work is a story of determination, growth, and the courage it has taken to continue pursuing her passion through different seasons of life.

Noirae Studios was created from that very journey. A space where her years of experience, creativity, and genuine love for hair come together to offer something more personal than an ordinary salon visit.

For Lori, it's never been just about doing hair. It's about taking pride in her work, building meaningful connections, and knowing that something she's loved since childhood can make another person feel beautiful and confident.
