The Donna Jean Hair Restoration Clinic

About V. Anthony — The Donna Jean Hair Restoration Clinic

Curl-literate. Restoration-rooted. Built for texture that deserves to be understood, not managed.

V. Anthony is a Licensed Cosmetologist and Certified Cranial Prosthesis Engineer, and a Student of Trichology with the American Hair Loss Council. He is the founder of The Donna Jean Hair Restoration Clinic in Arlington, Virginia — a practice built around one standard: if his late mother, Donna Jean, would be proud of the work, it moves forward. What he does

• Precision colour work, including silver/grey transitions and gender-affirming colour
• Curl and coil care, with dedicated protocol for Type 4 wash-n-go and defined-curl maintenance
• Trichological assessment and restoration therapy for thinning, shedding, and scalp health concerns
• Custom cranial prostheses, for clients navigating hair loss from medical treatment, alopecia, or traction

Why this practice is different

Most curly-hair guests are taught to manage their texture. V. Anthony starts somewhere else — with the scalp. Restoration work means understanding what's actually happening beneath the curl: density, growth cycle, tension, and health, not just product and technique on top of it. That same trained eye carries into every colour and curl appointment, which is why clients with textured hair leave with a regimen that's actually built for their pattern, not adapted from someone else's.

He is TRICARE-authorized for cranial prosthesis services, a 2026 Face of Sola Salon Studios, and a Zoom Solopreneur 50 honoree.
