Roxie Jane Hunt

Roxie Jane Hunt is an artist and hair weaver. She is Creative Director of How-to Hair Girl, a blog and shop which seeks to empower people through the art of Hair and it’s importance in our lives.

Her experimentation with hair and plants and earth-based alchemy brought her to create a line of small-batch earth-based products for hair styling and care called the Free Your Hair Earth Collection. She can often be found growing, digging, mixing, and infusing in her little Seattle home-based apothecary and parlor hair salon.

Through the medium of hair, Roxie has woven together a community of radical beauty, acceptance, and personal exploration through hair and the gifts of our natural world. She became a Spiritweaver sister last year, and experienced an indescribable shift. She is thrilled to have the opportunity to share with you and bare witness to your journeys as our community grows together in to one big, beautiful, fierce embrace of the feminine heart.

Find Roxie at @howtohairgirl for hair, ritual, and adornment and @filthandbeauty for family, and my personal life.

She believes body adornment is a simple and elegant way to express self love and to give and receive love from others. Her hair and makeup practice creates space to build deep connections and use the body as a canvas for story telling and exploration of self.

Hanah Zinn

Hair braiding is not only an esthetic, it’s a cultural fixture.  It’s a tool for community building and personal reflection; its a traditional skill.  Hanah’s work is to help rescue ritual beauty from the grips of capitalism and patriarchy, and place them back into the hands of the people.  Hanah offers classic to complex braided hairstyles as a service to those celebrating and centering in their body. Intuitive designs are intended to serve the braided in their efforts and affirm a playful, expressive self.  She has been braiding for 20 years with intensive study in the last four years, and a more recent invitation to the public. Raised in the Midwest tying friendship bracelets, macrame, and weaving baskets, her practice is coming full circle in Southern Appalachia.  She braids to honor rites of passage for those moving through milestones. She braids as an act of encouragement for those learning how to own the space they take up; and as an act of love for those defending their bodily autonomy. She braids as an act of resistance against forces that benefit from our isolation and as an act of celebration for our strength in togetherness.

She views her craft as a stylist as a true healing art form. With few wellness-focused salons in her region, she was inspired to create one of her own that could truly hold her creative vision.

Mandy Wray is an Austin-based artist, hair witch, and healing facilitator who works with hair as a medium for creative self-expression, transformation, and color therapy. She considers flowers & crystals to be her most powerful allies for inspiration, believing in their ability to facilitate change and spark creativity. She feels their beauty connects us to the wisdom of the Earth, serving as a physical manifestation of the intentions we hold most sacred to our journey.

Mandy’s snake path of experiences has nurtured a desire to help others step into their power through a self-care ceremony she refers to as Mane Medicine. During the ceremony she will offer you specific combinations of plant & crystal allies she recommends based on the energy you reflect to her in the moment. She utilizes four specific hydrosol sprays that she created in collaboration with the Austin-based apothecary Ritual Union. Each spray contains herbal nutrients, flower & crystal essences, a crystal specimen, and a healthy dose of magic.
