Chatto Wright

If you do not know Chatto, then let me introduce her to you. Yes Chatto (pronounced Shah-toe), is a person, and not just a brand! Chatto is a talented award-winning Hair Designer, Beauty Expert, Cosmetologist, and Esthetician, but more importantly she is a Spiritual Healer. There's no hocus-pocus, or magic to how she does it, through her extensive research, she has developed her own tangible formula to healing the spirit through the Skin and Hair. She believes that when people feel good about their natural beauty on the outside, they naturally feel good about themselves on the inside.  And when people feel good about themselves on the inside, it opens up a world of unlimited possibilities! 

Chatto has not only established herself as a staple in the Chicago community, she has located her hair and skin care facility, Chatto Incorporated, in the heart of Chicago's prestigious Oak Street which is a reflection of the work she has invested in her name and her brand. Her store, Chatto Centerfor Skin and Hair Care or Chatto Salon has been located at 102 E. Oak Street on Chicago's Gold Coast for 20 years and has gained unprecedented success for its quality and service. Recently opened, Chatto Eco-Friendly Salon at 65 E. Oak Streetcaters to hair in its natural state and commits itself to prevent environmental harm.  

Her passion for bringing forth the inner beauty through the hair and skin began almost 3 decades ago. Her many years of experience began with hair styling, which eventually lead to understanding how the hair and skin are the two main physical factors to enhance the natural beauty of any person.

Chatto first introduced her skin care products in 1994, and has been a pillar in the Chicago business community since 1984. Her skin care line was well received and gained notoriety for its amazing results. For numerous years, Chatto along with both her personal chemist and dermatologist, have been researching the healing properties of Shea Butter and Black Soap as well as the best way to manufacture products from this natural ingredient. Now, Chatto is reintroducing her skin care line and introducing her hair care line to the world.

Chatto's extensive research and expertise in natural hair care has led her to develop products that protect and nourish the hair. Her Natural and Organic Hair Care line caters to customers of all hair types and textures. From natural, wavy and curly to chemically damaged and treated hair to Locs, Twist and Braids and many more, Chatto’s products promote growth and bring a reservoir of strength to the hair follicles.Furthermore, with hair loss amongst women, men, and children of all races, millions of people in the US alone are affected. With the realization that baldness is not only a male problem, Chatto has created Chatto’s 6-Plus Growth Crème Formula 1 & 2, one of a kind scalp and hair treatments which offers a solution to the ever-increasing statistics of hair loss. She strives to provide quality products. 

Chatto has also been interested in advance techniques of transition from natural to chemical and chemical to natural. With natural hair becoming more popular, people are transitioning to natural methods including twist, locs, weaves and braids and her biggest concerns are advising people in taking extra precaution and not cause damage. As she says, going natural does not mean you can not cause damage to the hair. She also looks to help prevent damage caused by improper application of products and wrong uses of techniques that lead to hair loss.
