Share
At Fynergy Inc., we celebrate women who are building businesses with deep purpose, soulful vision, and a commitment to healing. In today’s BuildHER Business Pitch Competition spotlight, we introduce you to Shavon M. Robinson, founder of Golden Roots Hair Sanctuary—a serene and sacred space where natural hair care and holistic wellness come together to nurture both crown and spirit.
🌿 About the Founder
Shavon M. Robinson is a natural hair and loc care specialist with a deep passion for creating peaceful, transformative beauty experiences. As the founder of Golden Roots Hair Sanctuary, she centers beauty and wellness in everything she does. Her work is rooted in a belief that caring for the hair is also caring for the mind and soul—and that every client deserves to feel seen, supported, and renewed.
📝 About the Business
Business Name: Golden Roots Hair Sanctuary
Stage: Growing (1–3 Years)
Business Description:
Golden Roots Hair Sanctuary is a holistic natural hair and loc care salon where beauty meets soul care. Designed to evoke a sense of calm and connection, each appointment includes thoughtful details like aromatherapy, sound healing, and space for open, meaningful conversation. GRHS is more than a salon—it’s a sanctuary. A space for self-expression, peaceful presence, and personal restoration, where clients walk away feeling emotionally and energetically recharged.
💡 What Problem Does GRHS Solve?
Shavon created Golden Roots Hair Sanctuary to fill a gap in the beauty industry: the need for holistic, intentional care that honors the whole person—not just their appearance. While many salons offer expert styling, they often lack deeper wellness rituals or emotional presence.
GRHS solves this by offering services that nourish the hair, spirit, and energy of each client. It’s a place where people are invited to speak freely about their lives—whether processing grief, celebrating milestones, or dreaming about their next steps—and be received with compassion, care, and soulful connection.
🎯 Vision for Growth
Shavon is currently focused on:
-
Expanding the sensory experience with enhanced aromatherapy and new sound therapy tools
-
Growing her holistic retail section with intentional products that support self-care at home
-
Refining her brand storytelling through a full social media restructure
-
Deepening her knowledge with continued education in breathwork and aromatherapy
-
Laying the groundwork for a future holistic salon suite concept and wellness retreat center
Every move she’s making now is intentional and aligned with a bigger purpose—transforming her role from stylist to wellness leader and founder of a beauty experience rooted in impact, legacy, and soul.
🎁 What She’d Do With the Grant
If awarded BuildHER grant funding, Shavon would use it to:
-
Upgrade the salon’s wellness features, including aromatherapy systems and sound healing tools
-
Expand her essential oil collection to offer customized, emotional support experiences
-
Grow her holistic product offerings to help clients maintain wellness between visits
-
Strengthen business systems and strategy to prepare for future expansion into a full-service salon suite concept
🚧 The Challenges She’s Overcome
Shavon’s journey as a female entrepreneur has included navigating the weight of carrying a vision while also serving, leading, healing, and providing—all without consistent support. She has balanced motherhood, entrepreneurship, and deep spiritual investment in her work.
“Because I’m deeply invested in my business spiritually and creatively, it was sometimes difficult to separate personal worth from business outcomes.”
The operational side of business—like finances, systems, and scaling—was also a challenge early on. Wearing every hat slowed her ability to grow and made it difficult to clearly articulate the full value of her offer. But she remained committed, resilient, and deeply rooted in purpose.
“My challenges may have slowed me down, but I didn’t stop, and breaking is not an option.”
💬 Why She Joined BuildHER
“I want to participate in the BuildHER Business Pitch Contest because I’m ready to elevate my business with purpose, clarity, and aligned support.”
For Shavon, this contest isn’t just about funding—it’s about stepping into her next level as a soul-led founder and CEO. The opportunity was shared with her by a client—proof that the community around her believes in her mission and wants to see her shine.
She’s using this moment to sharpen her voice, expand her impact, and connect with a community of women who are building businesses that heal and uplift. Participating in BuildHER isn’t just about growing her business—it’s about growing herself.
