Meet Syneca Merrick

For more than 20 years, hairstylist Syneca Merrick has built her career around creativity, versatility, and a genuine passion for the art of hair.

Syneca’s journey began at just 17 years old, working in the salon and developing the foundation that would shape her career. She began specializing in natural hair, extensions, wigs, blowouts, color, and cuts—building her skills while creating lasting relationships with her clients.

As her artistry evolved, Syneca became increasingly interested in the craftsmanship behind hair. Her passion led her to explore wig building and barbering, expanding her abilities and opening the door to a new chapter of her career: working in the entertainment industry.

Today, Syneca brings more than two decades of experience from behind the salon chair to film, television, and theater, where hair becomes an essential part of bringing characters and stories to life.

Her growing production credits include The Front Room, starring Brandy Norwood, as well as theatrical productions including Family Secrets and TLC the Musical in Washington, D.C.

Even as her career continues to expand behind the scenes, Syneca remains connected to her roots by maintaining her personal clientele. Whether she is working with a longtime client, building a wig, preparing talent for the camera, or creating hair for the stage, she approaches each opportunity with professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail.

For Syneca, hair has never been limited to the salon chair. It is a craft, a career, and a form of storytelling—and her journey continues to evolve.
