Shai Amiel: A Curls Best Friend

Once upon a time, I wore long, straight hair extensions. I’m proud to say I have spent the last 7 years “weave free”. As soon as I took my extensions down my good friend gifted me, Curly Girl: The Handbook by Lorainne Massey. Needless to say, that as soon as I read that book I was on the hunt for a Deva Cut! The Deva Cut, is a dry cutting technique designed for curly hair. I was so used to a wet cut that I didn’t know any better. Luckily, social media outlets like Tumblr and Instagram helped me find Shai Amiel, a curl’s best friend.

Shai, also known as the ‘Curl Doctor’, was one of a select few that was trained under Massey to master her Deva Cut. He opened up Capella Salon in Studio City, Los Angeles and has been in high demand ever since. I found Shai by following girls on Instagram with the haircuts that I wanted. It wasn’t until Christina Santini (@santinihoudini) posted Shai’s information, that I knew he was the one. I crazily stalked his Instagram page looking at before and after’s and was amazed at the results. Wasting no time, I booked my first appointment and never looked back.

My experiences have been nothing less than fabulous. Capella Salon is a beautiful space with a friendly staff. Shai is truly one of a kind and has treats my curls with the best care. He cuts hair dry, with a curl by curl method that I will never figure out on my own. I only get my haircut twice a year and the grow out process looks beautiful in between cuts with him. Thanks to Shai, I’ve received more compliments than ever and I’ve embraced my curls once again.
