Kawana Baines, MBA, MSN, RN
Professional Loctitian | Founder

Kawana Baines is the founder of Ori Locs By K.B., a San Antonio-based natural hair studio specializing in SisterlocksTM, microlocs, and healthy scalp care.

As an Air Force Veteran and Registered Nurse with over 17 years of experience, Kawana brings a unique blend of science, precision, and artistry to loc care.

Her passion for natural hair and scalp health led her to expand her expertise into hair loss education and trichology, allowing her to support clients experiencing thinning, traction alopecia, or other scalp concerns.

Kawana believes that hair is more than a style - it is a crown that reflects identity, culture, and confidence.
