Curly Hair Souls
WELCOME
Helping you fall back in love with your natural texture.
WHY WE STARTED
Tired of salons that treat curls like a problem to fix?
So were we. That’s why we created a calm, luxurious space where your natural texture comes first - always.
No pressure to “tame” your curls. No rushed cuts or confusing product advice. Just real education, tailored care, and hair that finally feels like you.
At Purelyou, we’ve made it our mission to create a space where natural texture is not only understood but celebrated.
Founder & Curl Specialist
Meet Shannon
Curlyou began with Shannon’s deep love for curls and frustration with traditional salons that didn’t understand them.
For more than a decade, Shannon has immersed herself in the world of curls, learning from some of the most respected curl educators around the globe. She’s passionate about transforming the salon experience for people with textured hair — one thoughtful, empowering appointment at a time.
“I wanted to create a space where people with curls feel seen, understood, and confident in their natural texture.”
Her training includes:
Cadō Academy – Cutting & Blonding Technique
Cut it Kinky – Tight Curl Theory & Digital Mastermind
Rëzo Academy – Level 1 & Level 2 Advanced Rëzo Cut
Curly Hair Artistry – MAP Method with Scott Musgrave
Purely Curls – In-person Training with Amanda Rickman
Jordan Betts – Advanced Cutting & Mentoring (New York)
Plus additional study with Forever Curls by Leysa, Desert Curls, Evan Joseph Curl Course, Atoya Curls, Curly Hair Alchemist, Curlcraft Education, and Voss the Curl Boss
This ongoing education ensures every guest benefits from the latest techniques and healthy-hair science.
From Purelyou to Curlyou
One mission - helping every curl feel confident, understood, and celebrated.
The Purelyou salon has been Cairns’ trusted home for curls - a salon built on patience, education, and genuine care. It’s where hundreds of clients have rediscovered their natural texture, often saying it’s the first time they’ve truly loved their hair.
Now, through Curlyou Education, we’re bringing that same knowledge and experience online - helping curlies everywhere (not just in Cairns) understand their texture, build confidence, and create a routine that truly works for them.

The Curly Course
CREATING YOUR OWN CURLY CARE METHOD TO SUIT YOU.
This online program is your guide to understanding and caring for your unique curls - without the rigid rules.
You'll learn why curls behave the way they do (dryness, frizz, fluff), and explore techniques that hydrate, enhance, and evolve with your lifestyle.
Instead of prescribing routines based on curl types, we help you build a custom care method that suits your hair, time, and environment.
And of course, if you ever find yourself holidaying in Cairns, we’d love to see you in the salon - we can talk through your curly journey in person (and probably have a good giggle about humidity while we’re at it).
Whether you’ve sat in our chairs or are just discovering us from afar, Curlyou Education extends our mission beyond the salon walls so every curly soul can feel seen, supported, and celebrated.
What to Expect at Your First Curly Appointment
✨ The Curl Mastery Experience ✨
A personalised curl transformation for people who are done guessing.
If you’ve ever thought
“My curls are unpredictable”
“I don’t actually know what my hair needs”
“My curls look good once… then never again”
This experience was created for you.
The Curl Mastery Experience is not just a hair appointment —
it’s a reset, an education, and a confidence upgrade for your curls.
This is where confusion ends and curl confidence begins.
🔥 The real transformation
This isn’t just about hair.
Clients leave saying:
“I finally understand my curls.”
“I feel confident again.”
“I don’t dread wash day anymore.”
“This changed how I feel about myself.”
This is for women who are ready to:
✨ stop hiding their curls
✨ stop fighting their hair
✨ stop settling for “good enough”
And start owning their natural texture with confidence.
🤍 Who this is perfect for
✔️ New curl clients
✔️ Anyone overwhelmed by curl care
✔️ Anyone who’s never been properly taught
✔️ Anyone who wants long-term results, not a quick fix
If you’re ready to invest in your curls and yourself,
this experience will change everything.
✨ Why clients say “yes”
Because once you realise:
your curls aren’t the problem
you don’t need 20 products
you just needed the right guidance
💫 What makes this different
Most curl services focus on styling your hair for one good day.
This experience is about teaching you how to:
understand your unique curl pattern
work with your hair, not against it
recreate beautiful curls at home, consistently
stop wasting money on products that don’t work
You leave knowing exactly what your curls need and why.
