Shannia Jordan

Stylist - Laurelwood (East)

When did you start working at Pavo:
September 2023 at the front desk and May 2024 as an apprentice hairstylist!

My previous jobs:
I used to do phlebotomy and bartending!

My hometown and places I have lived:
I was born in Illinois, grew up in Arkansas, and hair brought me to Memphis!

I decided to become a stylist because:
I have been doing my hair and makeup since I was 11 years old. That’s when I first dyed my hair black and started winging my eyeliner, and I’ve never looked back!

Who is your dream client and why:
My dream client is someone who is open to embracing change and works with me to make their hair goals happen!

My professional goal is:
To continue to grow and educate myself as I go through my journey of being a hair stylist, and to keep up with the always-changing trends in this industry!

What I want every client to know about me:
I love creating art with makeup, my eye makeup is always a colorful surprise! I love expressing myself through my makeup and the way I dress, and I want to help my clients and to be able to express themselves however they want to! My chair is a safe space for everyone, You can always be yourself with me!

If you aren’t at the salon, where else can you be found:
Cuddled up with my boyfriend, my 3 cats, and my Kindle; traveling to go see my favorite bands in concert, or obsessing over Taylor Swift!
