October 2011 - Clairol Professional is thrilled to have two-time Emmy Award-winning celebrity hairstylist and colorist Kiyah Wright on board in her most recent role as a celebrity colorist for the professional haircolor brand. Kiyah's hair genius not only sets precedent for image-making, but redefines the appearance of sexy, successful, and confident women. Kiyah is a fashion powerhouse with expertise ranging from signature hair designs to overall beauty transformations. As a charismatic visionary, she established her mark in the industry and continues to inspire with cutting edge developments and groundbreaking achievements. She aims to bring awareness and knowledge to the proper care of "blended" or textured hair, and believes that "behind every gorgeous celebrity is a fabulous hairstylist."
As a teenager, Kiyah met entertainment mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs and quickly found herself at the hub of a life-changing experience when "Diddy" gave her a big break. Having developed her natural talent at the early age of 14, Kiyah quickly mastered the arts of style, color, cuts, hair weaving and full imaging and has since gone on to work with top artists such as Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, Tyra Banks, Iman, Brandy, Gabrielle Union, Jennifer Hudson, Kerry Washington and Taraji P. Henson.
Kiyah's work is frequently featured on-camera on hit television shows such as The Tyra Show, America's Next Top Model, America's Got Talent, and BET's "My Black Is Beautiful." She also made guest appearances on Style Her Famous, Shear Genius, MTV's "Hired" and frequently provides hair and beauty tips on AOL "Daily Solutions" webisodes. Kiyah's work is celebrated in the editorial world and can be seen in Glamour, Vanity Fair, Elle, Essence and Vogue, and when not on-set, she works with a loyal client base at the highly celebrated Warren-Tricomi Salon in Los Angeles.
Kiyah's diverse clientele reflects her impeccable ability to reveal and effectively translate a woman's beauty, inside and out.
