Natural Hair Salon Pioneer & Experts
The Nappy Hutt was born from the combined vision of Owner and co-founder Shawntel Waajid and co-founder Jibril Waajid. Their foundation is built on elite artistry, having served as lead instructors and stylists for the legendary Taliah Waajid, the pioneer of Natural Hair. For over a decade, they graced the stages of world-renowned platforms including the Taliah Waajid World Natural Hair Show, Bronner Bros, Kevin Kirks, Jam Session, and Premiere.
The Nappy Hutt was the first salon to bring locs to Savannah in 2012. Our founders have a combined 80+ years of experience. Our team prides itself on expertise, versatility, and a wide range of services. We are more than stylists; we are hair educators.
In 2026, The Nappy Hutt expanded to Atlanta, Georgia.
