Meet Kari Evans

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Kari Evans. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Kari, we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from?

My resilience was born out of personal experience. I started experiencing hair loss in my early twenties, and it was devastating. I went from being confident and outgoing to hiding under wigs and hats, afraid of what people might say or think. I visited salons, doctors, and other professionals, but most didn’t know how to help me. That helpless feeling lit a fire in me not just to solve my own problem, but to make sure other women didn’t have to feel what I felt.

But resilience isn’t something you just have it’s something you build. For me, it came in layers: facing the emotional pain, doing the hard work of researching, studying trichology, studying the anatomy and physiology of the human body, learning the science of hair and scalp health, and then putting myself out there to help others, even when I was still healing myself.

Every “no,” every doubt, every door that closed made me stronger. And now, when I sit with a woman who feels lost because of her hair loss /hair concerns, I can look her in the eye and say, “I know how you feel, and I know we can get through this.”

Resilience, for me, came from pain but it grew into purpose. And that purpose is now the foundation of everything I do.

Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?

Thank you so much for the opportunity to share more about what I do. I’m a Certified Trichologist, Naturopathic Wellness Practitioner, and the founder of Studio Glamour Hair Salon & Restoration Center and Let’s Talk Hair Academy. My passion lies in helping women experiencing hair loss, scalp disorders, and damaged hair regain not only their hair but their confidence. What makes my work so special is that I combine individualized holistic approach & scientific knowledge to help clients restore their hair and confidence.

What excites me most is seeing women looking and feeling their very best not just physically, but emotionally. Watching someone go from feeling hopeless about their hair to smiling confidently in the mirror never gets old. It’s about more than hair it’s about healing, total restoration from the inside out.

Right now, we’re excited to announce our upcoming online trichology certification course for beauty professionals along with other courses to help hair stylist scale their business. We’re also preparing for upcoming events and workshops to educate and empower both clients and professionals.

At the heart of everything I do is the mission to help women feel seen, supported, and beautiful in every stage of their journey.

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?

1. Resilience – The path hasn’t always been easy. There were moments of doubt, setbacks, and challenges, but having the resilience to push forward kept me going. For anyone starting out, understand that challenges are not signs to quit they’re opportunities to grow stronger. Strengthen your resilience by embracing failures as learning moments.

2. Lifelong Learning – I committed myself to continuous education not just in trichology and holistic health, but also in business, leadership, and personal growth. Staying curious and humble about what you don’t know will open doors you never imagined. I encourage others to read, take courses, attend workshops, and surround themselves with people who challenge their thinking.

3. Compassionate Leadership – What I do is deeply personal. Women come to me vulnerable, often having lost hope. Leading with compassion, active listening, and empathy has allowed me to build trust and meaningful relationships. For those early in their journey: success isn’t just about skill it’s about how you treat people. Always lead with integrity.

My advice? Stay consistent. Take imperfect action. And remember that developing personally is just as important as developing professionally.

Awesome, really appreciate you opening up with us today and before we close maybe you can share a book recommendation with us. Has there been a book that’s been impactful in your growth and development?

Atomic Habits by James Clear. The most impactful piece of wisdom I received is knowing how to create systems that work for you. Start replacing 1 bad habit with 1 good habit will eventually lead you to a life of fulfillment and success. The importance of creating and implementing great habits helps your dreams & goals become a reality. This perspective has changed how I maneuver through life as a business owner.
