Carly Chung-Stowe
Owner/Master Stylist
A licensed cosmetologist for twenty-three years.
Master Cut/ Color/ and Chemical Services.
In her own words, Carly was “born” into the beauty industry. Watching and learning from her mother, Carly was fascinated by the beauty industry. “Enhancing women’s beauty is what makes them feel and look good", said Carly. “I remember seeing women get their hair done, go into the lady’s room, put their makeup on, and come out with self-confidence and a smile! I was intrigued by the way their self-esteem heightened right in front of me.” Growing up and influenced by her mother’s hair salon, Carly began experimenting on her friends’ hair. By age fourteen, she became a shampoo assistant for her mother. After earning her high school diploma, Carly attended the World Renowned Dudley School of Beauty in 1996, where she excelled and received her cosmetology training and certifications.
Carly stepped out on faith, opened Textures Beauty Bar in 2015, and cultivated her unique business savvy after being only engaged in the artistic aspect of her career prior. “I was going bigger,” said Carly. “Bigger ideas, bigger space, bigger overhead and bigger dreams.
Carly is currently focusing on short hair clients only, she specializes in haircutting, coloring and hair repair. Textures Beauty Bar consists of 5 stylist, Carly’s goal is to expand Textures Beauty Bar by hiring more licensed stylists to meet the specific needs of a diverse clientele.
Madam CJ Walker once said, “ Don’t sit down and wait for opportunities to come. Get up and make them.” That’s precisely what Carly Chung-Stowe is doing. Not only is she making opportunities for herself as an entrepreneur, but she’s also creating opportunities for other stylists to grow, learn and succeed.

My name is Shameka Rotan many people call me Meeka. Since a young girl I have been interested in doing hair, Almost fascinated with it. Started doing hair at the age of twelve doing friends and family. My passion for making a difference in someones everyday life is what warms my heart. Being able to achieve their desired look.
Being one of the few members of the family to provide services is what sparked me into making this a life long career. Upon school I learned that I love the art behind hair. Hair isn't just hair, its a form of expression, fashion and beauty. From that point on I knew GOD had showed me my purpose, and that is to be a natural nurturer. I am someone who listen and also pays attention to the eye of the prize which is pleasing the client. I am genuinely passionate about what I do and love it!! That is a reward from GOD to be able to make people life/day complete.

Saarai Matthews
Licensed Cosmetologist
Hi, I'm Saarai. A Rochester native and a long time natural hair enthusiast. I have been braiding hair since I was a little girl but I started doing so in a serious capacity for the past 6 years. I am a graduate of Continental School of Beauty and Culture.
I have witnessed how low priority natural hair care and styling is in Upstate NY. I understand how frustrating caring for our hair can be without the right information and support. I'm here to help restore your confidence in those tresses and your ability to take care of them. I specialize in Natural Styles including Braids, Twists, Locs, Coils(Finger/Comb), and Wash and Go's.
I follow a gentle styling model which means I believe that braids can be neat without being extremely tight. Protective styles can be beautiful without compromising comfort or integrity of your hair.
