Angela French

Meet Phrenchie (Angela French), a Clinical Cosmetologist & Wellness Advocate specializing in all textures, locs, bridal, and editorial artistry. She's also the owner of PHRENCHmade Hair Services, located in Bowie, MD. While maintaining her salon studio, she continues to dedicate her time as a freelance artist in the DMV area, along with national and international locations. While working as a platform artist for one of L'Oréal's major brands and collaborating with like-minded artists, she has established herself as a Master Artistry behind the scenes of photoshoots, magazines, fashion show runways, and even movies. Some of her work has been featured in national and international hair magazines, or you may have seen her work grace the latest runways or films. 

Her latest journey in hair wellness has opened the doorway to a new educational platform for stylists who have always been passionate about maintaining hair care. Her recent education and experience in maintaining healthy hair, as well as product knowledge, have led her to network in spaces with like-minded cosmetologists and dermatologists. Graduating with a certification in Integrative Health & Wellness from the University of Maryland Baltimore helped her recognize the connections between mind, body, and wellness coaching, which can potentially help clients navigate hair transitioning phases related to hair disorders or conditions. Since becoming a STRAND Ambassador, she dedicates herself to helping new and existing clients, as well as cosmetologists and barbers, understand their hair concerns by providing them with the right resources from professionals and medical experts.
