About Gabrielle

Rooted in Purpose,
Grown from Love

Gabrielle Zalina's origins in hair began with Sunday morning hair rituals with her mom and sisters — moments filled with laughter, care, and the shared experience of styling and nurturing curls that sparked a lifelong devotion to textured hair.

Her journey led her to an African braiding salon, where she witnessed firsthand the artistry, tradition, and cultural pride surrounding natural hair. That spark ignited a nearly two-decade career dedicated to celebrating curls in all their glory.

An Aveda Institute alumna, Gabrielle's deep appreciation for botanical science and holistic beauty laid the groundwork for én Love Beauty — an aloe-first haircare line designed to nourish, define, and honor every curl pattern.

Today she operates two salons in Jacksonville, FL and Atlanta, GA, and is a devoted wife and mother of four.
