For Yalmikia Edmonds, hair is more than a profession—it’s a mission rooted in empathy, purpose, and transformation. A licensed cosmetologist, certified hair loss practitioner, and inspirational speaker, Edmonds is the founder of Levonye Professionals, where she works with women experiencing alopecia, thinning hair, or seeking preventative care. But what truly sets her apart isn’t just technical expertise—it’s her unwavering commitment to healing both the scalp and the soul.

More Than a Stylist

Edmonds began her journey in traditional cosmetology, but personal tragedy and spiritual awakening led her to something deeper. After enduring a painful divorce and the heartbreaking loss of her grandmother to breast cancer—a woman whose hair she once lovingly cared for—she began to understand the emotional weight that hair can carry.

“I had gone through a lot… I experienced some things in my own personal space, which is a big part of why I go above and beyond for my clients. Even though our pain points may be different, I know how it feels to have a deficit,” she tells BlackDoctor.org.
