About CATRESENCO

Skin. Scalp. Hair. One Standard of Care.

CATRESENCO Skin, Scalp & Hair Bar was created from a simple belief: your skin, scalp, and hair are connected—and your care should be too.

CATRESENCO is a beauty and wellness concept specializing in professional care for melanated skin, textured natural hair, locs, scalp health, and results-focused esthetic services.

Founded by Monica Catrese Harris, a dual-licensed Esthetician and Natural Hair Specialist, CATRESENCO brings years of beauty-industry experience together under one approach: understand what the client actually needs, provide skilled and honest care, and create a long-term plan rather than simply performing a service.

More Than a Salon. More Than a Spa.

Traditional beauty businesses often separate hair, scalp, and skin care.

CATRESENCO brings them together.

Our services are designed for clients who want professional maintenance, healthier routines, consistent results, and a provider who understands the unique needs of melanated skin and textured hair.

Care may include:

  • Natural hair and loc maintenance

  • Sisterlocks® and microloc services

  • Scalp cleansing, detoxification, and HeadSpa services

  • Hair-loss and scalp-care support

  • Acne and hyperpigmentation-focused esthetic services

  • Brightening and age-supportive facial treatments

  • Professional skin and scalp treatments

  • Brow and beauty-enhancement services

  • Personalized home-care recommendations and ongoing maintenance planning

When something falls outside our professional scope, we believe in being transparent and referring clients to the appropriate professional.

The CATRESENCO Difference

At CATRESENCO, luxury isn't about unnecessary extras.

Luxury is being understood.

It's having a professional who remembers your history, evaluates what has changed, communicates honestly, respects your time, and knows how today's service fits into your long-term goals.

That means we don't believe every client needs the same treatment.

We look at the person sitting in the chair—their skin, scalp, hair, lifestyle, maintenance schedule, concerns, and goals—and build care around them.

Expert Hands. Honest Touch.

CATRESENCO is built on education, experience, communication, and consistency.

Our approach is results-first and relationship-driven. We want clients to understand not only what we're doing, but why we're doing it.

Sometimes that means recommending a treatment.

Sometimes it means changing a maintenance schedule.

Sometimes it means telling a client that a service isn't the right choice.

Honest care comes before making the sale.

Created With Melanin and Texture in Mind

CATRESENCO intentionally centers people whose beauty needs have historically been misunderstood, underserved, or treated as an afterthought.

Melanated skin requires knowledgeable treatment.

Textured hair requires knowledgeable handling.

Loc'd hair requires specialized maintenance.

Scalp concerns require more than simply covering them with a hairstyle.

Our goal is to provide a space where these needs aren't considered specialty exceptions—they are part of the foundation of what we do.

What the Name Means

CATRESENCO comes from Monica's middle name, Catrese.

The name represents something deeply personal: building a company rooted in care, service, expertise, growth, and the belief that every person deserves to feel seen when they sit in the chair.

What began as years of hands-on service has grown into a larger vision for what beauty and wellness care can become.

The Vision

CATRESENCO is being built for more than individual appointments.

The long-term vision is a comprehensive Skin, Scalp & Hair Bar where qualified beauty and wellness professionals can work within their specialties while clients receive coordinated services under one trusted company.

It is a model designed around expertise, professionalism, education, consistency, and community—while creating room for the next generation of beauty professionals to grow.
