Editor-in-Chief & Lead Hair Care Writer
Licensed Cosmetologist (NY) Certified Trichology Practitioner

Megan Holloway has spent 14 years in the hair industry — 8 behind the chair and 6 in editorial. She trained at the Aveda Institute before working at a Portland, Oregon salon known for scalp health and damage-repair work, where she developed a focus on the science side of hair: porosity, cuticle damage, and product formulation. She later completed a trichology certification to deepen her understanding of scalp conditions and hair loss patterns.

As Editor-in-Chief, Megan sets Hair Gracefully's editorial standards and writes the site's hair care, maintenance, and ingredient-focused content — with an emphasis on translating clinical-sounding concepts into practical, specific guidance readers can actually use.

“Most hair care advice is either too vague to be useful or too clinical to be usable. My job is to close that gap — tell you exactly what a product does and why, not just that it's ‘good for your hair.’”
