Born and raised in the vibrant coastal city of Delray Beach, Florida, my journey into hairstyling began with a deep-seated passion for fashion and an eye for detail. Initially, I dreamed of becoming a model and fashion designer, but as I watched the skilled women in my family transform others with their talents, I discovered my true calling. My early years were spent perfecting braids on my Barbie dolls and siblings, unknowingly planting the seeds of what would become a lifelong career.
Today, with over 30 years of experience, I am a licensed and dedicated professional hairstylist. My career is grounded in a profound understanding of hair’s science and artistry, which led me to establish my own exclusive hair extension line—Tammy Benz Hair. Through this line, I have the privilege of offering high-quality, chic hair solutions, specializing in natural-looking sew-in extensions and bespoke human hair wigs that enhance beauty and confidence.
Based in Palm Beach County, Florida, I also travel to California to provide my clients with personalized hair concierge services. For booking inquiries, feel free to reach out at info@tammybenz.com.
Every client I serve brings me back to those early dreams, and I am honored to make them a reality every day through my craft.

Take a look at this stunning doll above, she's wearing the traditional sew-in Installed by me ----- the results speak for themselves. . .
Have you considered hair extensions but didn't know where to start?
Sew-Ins have been around for decades. My sew-in installation system is the method of choice to achieve the desired look you want, without compromising the health of your natural hair. My sew-in installation technique is one of the safest organic options for achieving beautiful locs. My method involves sewing extensions onto a braided base foundation. Not only is your hair extensions secure, there's no tension on the follicles that could lead to damage or hair loss. Most importantly, you can shampoo/condition your hair extensions from the roots to the ends as needed, without compromising the install.
Even if you're a beginner, getting a perfect sew-in is easier than ever with the right tools and help from me. With my needle and thread method, you can say goodbye to bad hair days and hello to beautiful, healthy hair without any damage to your natural manes.
Noted: Don't be intimidated by sew-in extensions - FYI: Sew-ins are designed for a long-lasting wear and to help promote healthy hair growth because there's no bonding agents, beads system nor chemical products are involved - simply organic (needle & thread). So do yourself a favor and level up the game of your hair care ----- Team ORGANIC Hair Extension Installation!
