About Me

“Nia Jordan?”
Locstory:
Age 15: I spent the whole year studying various methods used to start, maintain, and grow healthy locs.
Age 16: I went to two locticians to start my first set of locs. (comb coils) The first loctician ruined my starter locs by using me as a test doll. The second loctician saved my starter Locs and further educated me on locs, but from that point on I decided to maintain and grown my own locs.
Age 17: I began to maintain my grandmothers starter locs as well as a coworker and that’s when I realized it was never an obsession, it was a passion. Something that I was naturally good at, something that filled my soul with happiness and my mind with peace.
Age 18: I continued to educate myself on natural hair and locs, as well as finding new clients to begin building my portfolio with.
Age 19/20: I officially decided that I wanted to go all out and follow through with my passion for locs. I began promoting myself, educating myself on business and marketing techniques, and I began investing into my dreams as well as expanding my clientele.
Personal Life?
Elementary School:
I’d clean the neighbors houses, cars, and... well anything for money. I’d save All of my money and when my family members would ask to borrow money I made them pay me back with 50% interest for borrowing from a child.
Middle School:
I reacted instead of responded. However, I’m thankful for all of the teachers who guided me and never gave up on bettering me as a person or student.
High School:
During the middle of the 2013 I had just gotten
released from ALC, (alternate learning class for those who couldnt behave.) I was told by my teacher there to transfer to another school because they wanted me to go to an alternative school. So..... I transferred, humbled myself, and started targeting the real issues by learning to respond as opposed to reacting. All I knew was that I hated school, but I wanted nothing more than to achieve what many teachers had told me I wouldn’t with my attitude. After transferring I began working on my grades, I was always smart, just not well behaved.
In 2014: I spoke to my guidance counselors and they informed me that I could graduate as a Junior a year early! I took online classes as well as my regular course load at school trading unnecessary electives out for extra credit classes. Soon after, I found out that I was pregnant.
In 2015:I I birthed my son Kendal and graduated High School a year early and started college as a Criminal Justice major in the fall.
12/2017: I graduated from my community college one semester early with an Associates in Criminal Justice and I started on my Forensic Science degree.
Right Now I’m....

A cool employee.

A 20 year old self taught loctician.
