Today we’d like to introduce you to Kiolli Sydnor.
Hi Kiolli, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Golden Rootz LLC began with a passion that started at just 12 years old. What began as practicing natural hair care on family and friends quickly grew into a true calling. Over the years, I dedicated myself to learning healthy hair care techniques, specializing in locs and natural hair while building my skills through consistency, patience, and a genuine love for helping people feel confident.
In 2019, I took a leap of faith and left the security of corporate America to pursue my passion full-time. My initial goal was simple—to gain five new clients each month—but through hard work, referrals, and the power of social media, my clientele grew beyond what I imagined. Even through challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic, I remained committed to serving my clients and continuing to grow.
Today, Golden Rootz LLC is more than a hair care business—it’s a brand built on education, healthy hair, and empowerment. In addition to providing professional natural hair services, I am expanding into mentorship and training, teaching others the art of microlocs and natural hair care. My mission is to help clients and aspiring professionals embrace healthy hair while creating opportunities to build confidence, independence, and lasting success.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Building Golden Rootz has been a journey filled with lessons, growth, and perseverance. One of my biggest challenges was learning how to transition from simply being talented at doing hair to becoming a successful business owner. I had to learn how to price my services with confidence, manage my finances, market myself consistently, and create systems that would allow my business to grow. It has not been smooth however it’s been a blessing to say the least.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?

What does success mean to you?

Success means building a business rooted in integrity, creating opportunities for others, and continuously becoming a better entrepreneur, mentor, and person.
