Hey there! I'm Robin Symone Bender, the owner of Salon Clutch Couture 1,2,AND 3, in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. I'm a 30 something entrepreneur from Buckatunna, Mississippi, who's super passionate about beautiful healthy hair!

 

I'm a wife to my husband, Jeremy, and dog mom, to my baby Oliver "Ollie" Lincoln Bender. My hubby is a vital part of what I do in my business ventures! Because although I have the artistic vision, he has the structure, order, and motivation to keep me going! The first clue that I'd begin a hair journey someday was revealed at the tender age of 5. My mother recalls how I took down all the other little girl's hairstyles and restyled it for them on the spot! According to the teachers, I did a pretty good job, so they didn't stop me, lol! And let's just say the rest is history! I've been pursuing hair since I was 19 years old, when I left college, where I was studying Business Administration, to attend cosmetology school. Sometimes all is takes is one leap to change your whole life!

 

When I'm not managing my hair salons or styling clients, I'm teaching my students at my cosmetology school ( CLUTCH ACADEMY) . I absolutely LOVE teaching and helping my students value the importance of healthy hair maintenance. If you are a salon manager, stylist, OR FUTURE cosmetologist interested in learning from me, don't hesitate to reach out! Contact me here.  

​

In addition to doing hair, I believe one of my greatest gifts is that of encouraging others. I'm honored that I get to speak into women's lives and hearts each and every day! Through my hair ministry, I'm able to motivate young women to be the best the can be! I'm proof that with a little hard work and a whole lot of faith, anyone can be successful and also do what they love. Visit me at the salons by booking your appointment today! You'll leave a little more encouraged than when you came AND walk out with some BOMB hair to boo!
