Find a licensed hairstylist, cosmetologist, or barber. These individuals must complete between 1500 and 1800 hours of training and various examinations.
Many businesses choose to get accredited by the BBB, the Ohio State Cosmetology and Barber Board, the Professional Beauty Association, American Barber Association, or Professional Black Barbers Association.
Be sure to see if a hairstylist or barber is involved with any of these organizations. This ensures the greatest quality of treatment.
If you are a Cincinnati Black-owned hair salon or retailer specializing in caring for natural hair and would like to be added to our list, please submit your name to our Black Business Database.

I’m looking for a African American stylist that does natural hair in the 45238 zip code
So am I!
Thanks, need some that can do a sharp cut.
Thank you Marissa for this informative article! I stumbled across it while searching for Black hair stylist in Cincinnati. Your breakdown of protective style options are on point for many that find themselves struggling with maintaining hair styles during their work out schedules. With this information I can eliminate the doubt I experience with selecting a style when sitting in the stylist chair. I would love to try Bantu knots, and have no idea of what Havana twist looks like.
