You can feel it—that pull toward the next level.
And whether you’re opening a salon, leaving a commission space, or sitting with the question, “Is this all there is?”—I’ve been where you are.
I’m Kyle Huntsberry: a salon owner, curl visionary, and coach for stylists and salon owners ready to step out of survival mode and into their power.
I built Milk Honey Soul, a 7-chair salon that’s been profitable since day one—bringing in nearly a million in sales in its third year. But that success didn’t come from hustling harder. It came from slowing down, getting clear on what I wanted, and choosing my vision over the noise.
Through coaching, I rewrote my story.
Now, I live to help you rewrite yours.

This coaching is for stylists and salon owners who are:
"DTH helped me gain clarity on what I really want from my business and has helped me stop doing the things that were holding me and my business back. Having Kyle for support is so great, she really believes in me and gives me so much confidence in and outside my salon."

It’s not about having all the answers. It’s about being open enough to ask new questions.
For a long time, I believed I had to figure it all out alone—that asking for support was a weakness. But it wasn’t until I allowed myself to be supported that everything shifted.
I realized: The strongest move I ever made was choosing to grow beyond what I already knew.
Inside my private community, you’ll connect with like-minded stylists and salon owners who are doing the deep work alongside you. This is a space where real conversations happen, and real growth takes root.
Salon life doesn’t pause between appointments—and neither should your support. You’ll have access to me through messaging for the moments when things get real, and you need guidance.
Tailored, direct, and transformational. These calls are focused on where you are right now and where you want to go.
I went from hustling in a commission salon to working independently to opening Milk Honey Soul—a profitable, thriving space that’s grown beyond what I ever imagined.
But I couldn’t have done it without learning to lead differently.
Through coaching, I released the survival mode that got me here, and embraced the vision that was waiting for me. Now I help other stylists and salon owners do the same.

Offering custom education designed to transform how you approach curls in the salon. Whether you’re a salon owner wanting to train your team or a stylist ready to build your confidence working with texture, my classes are crafted to meet you where you are - and take you further.
This is more than curl cutting or curly color technique. It’s about deepening your understanding of curl behavior, mastering intentional placement, and building trust behind the chair through inclusive consultation and styling.
Most classes teach you a curly cut. I teach you to understand curls—how they move, how they live, and how to approach them with intention from consultation to final styling.
Even the best cut and color can fall flat without a strong styling finish. I teach you how to confidently style curls, so your clients leave loving what they see right away—not just when they get home and redo it themselves.
Color should never get lost in texture. You’ll learn how to place color with purpose—creating impact without wasted effort. We cover color balance, placement strategy, and how to confidently say yes (or no) when it matters most.
This isn’t about forcing curls into a shape. It’s about honoring curl behavior and understanding how your cutting decisions affect how those curls live and move when they leave your chair.
Every service starts with connection. You’ll learn how to conduct in-depth, inclusive consultations that put your clients at ease and ensure you’re delivering exactly what they want—and what their curls need.
Bring me into your salon for a fully custom class experience. Look + Learn or Hands-On available, tailored to your team’s needs.

"Thank you again it usually takes me almost 2 hrs to do a full on my curly girls but your technic cut down the time so much plus made it so much easier to pull foils and keep her curl healthy."
"I diffused two of my regular curly guests today with some of the techniques you taught us and they both said "OH WOW!!!" they've never said that before! thank you so much for the curly styling tips!"
"I am still in shock by how inspired I felt after your class! Thank you so much for sharing your time and knowledge with us! I was considering taking a step back from hair but your class put a serious pep in my step, I loved it!"
I built my career on curls. But everything changed when I learned to take risks rooted in choosing myself. That’s when things started to hit different.
I transitioned out of the traditional commission salon world—the grind, the hustle, the way things had always been done. I went independent, and eventually, I created something new: Milk Honey Soul, a commission salon reimagined. A space built on intention, alignment, and leadership rooted in personal responsibility.
Today, Milk Honey Soul is a 7-chair salon that’s been profitable since day one, bringing in nearly $1 million in its third year. But success isn’t just about numbers. It’s about building a space where stylists are supported, empowered, and inspired to create lives they love.
As a bi-racial woman, I didn’t always feel like I fit in—or that I was beautiful. Through hair, I found my voice. And through coaching, I found the power to expand beyond survival and into something bigger. Now, I help others do the same.
Whether you’re a stylist, a salon owner, or a client sitting in my chair, my work is about helping you step into your full power—whether that’s through conscious coaching, curl education, or transformative salon services.
