Our story
A Vision Rooted in Community
Gifted Hands was founded by Kristal Pearl and grew from a passion for natural-hair care, education and community empowerment — a place where clients feel cared for and students feel capable.
What began with a love for natural texture became a welcoming salon, and then an academy for the next generation of natural-hair professionals in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
Historical details and organizational claims will be confirmed with the Gifted Hands team.
