My name is Safiya Daley, and I am a dedicated licensed hairstylist based in Toronto with over 20 years of professional experience. Specializing in locs and natural hair, I have had the privilege of working on a variety of film and television sets, bringing my expertise to productions such as “Law and Order Toronto: Criminal Intent,” “In The Black,” and “A Tribe Called Love.”

Originally starting my career as a travelling stylist, then a home-based business which grew to a brick and motar salon, Safiya’s House of Kreation™ (SHK), which offers a full-service experience in a relaxed and professional environment. My journey has been fueled by a deep passion for hair artistry and a commitment to the well-being of my clients. With an artistic vision and a focus on personalized care, I strive to exceed expectations, delivering styles that not only enhance appearance but also boost confidence.

My technical proficiency encompasses a wide range of services, including colour, extensions, weaves, wigs, and relaxers, with a special emphasis on super curly, textured hair. As a Master Loctician, I take pride in providing tailored solutions that cater to the unique needs of each individual. Beyond hairstyling, I am also an experienced trainer, dedicated to sharing my knowledge and skills with others.

Working on set, I have always been commended for my professionalism, time management, and ability to seamlessly integrate into a team. My expertise lies not only in hairstyling but also in actively listening and providing an outstanding level of service, ensuring that every client feels valued and understood.

I am driven by a mission to change the narrative for performers of color, ensuring they are represented with the respect and aesthetic integrity they deserve. My work behind the scenes is not just about creating beautiful looks, but also about contributing to the broader storytelling process and making a positive impact on how audiences perceive diverse characters.

It is this commitment to excellence and passion for my craft that I bring to every project. I am confident that my extensive experience, coupled with my dedication to continuous learning and innovation, makes me a valuable addition to any production team.

Thank you for considering my expertise. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to your next project and help bring your creative vision to life.
