Chauntaye Fayson is a Natural Hair Culturist/Nutritionist Complete Beauty Solutions, LLC

Her professional background includes natural hair care and styling, along with medical assisting, customer service, and nutrition. Her mission is to empower, encourage, and educate.

She has faced many challenges over the years that have come with  many rewards. As a hair stylist, she learned how to perfect her craft watching and imitating her Aunt, who was a licensed cosmetologist. This natural talent stemmed into a “side hustle” in her teenage years and early 20s, when she became a traveling stylist. As a natural hair culturist, she learned the importance of attention to detail within her own culture. Her eagerness to learn more and research natural ways to combat a seemingly normal industry of limited resources became prevalent after she gave birth to her very first daughter, who was diagnosed with eczema. With this experience, having limited financial resources exposed her and her daughter to a world of medical issues during a time of great vulnerability. Out of this challenging time, her hair and skin care line, Completely Beautiful Naturals, was born.

As a medical assistant, she received the opportunity to bounce between specialties such as infectious disease, internal medicine, and urgent care. Though this profession fed her eagerness to help others, it taught her more about the holes in the medical industry and within many medical facilities. This pushed her to extend her own knowledge into the world of nutrition. As a nutritionist, she was able to validate a lot of the research she’s learned over the years. This ultimately pushed her to change her overall business scope, as a complete source for beauty and health. Over the years, she attended Everest, now NIT, to receive her medical assisting certificate, which is how she became a Medical Assistant. She graduated as one of the top students in her class at the time, while pregnant. She attended Full Sail University online, to receive her Bachelor’s in Science for the Music Business, which she uses as a major source for her business knowledge. She also attended Shaw Academy online where she received her nutritionist certificate.

In addition to steady research and consistent guidance from professionals, such as Lorraine Massey, Kimberly Snyder, Marie Forleo, and Dr. Sonja Stribling. She launched a new product in September 2022- the Natural Hair Care and Maintenance Training course, which is designed to educate individuals who are interested in the beauty industry. The sole purpose of this training is to have a platform readily available to empower individuals with the proper understanding of how health and beauty tie together, allowing their personal knowledge to come full circle and evolve. She is always eager to learn new things, help others, and continue to educate.

Dr. Suzie Le Brocq is the founder and owner of Doc Le Brocq: Beauty in Resilience, a counseling and resource center for women and men who have faced or are facing ostomy procedures. Dedicated to helping ostomates reclaim their body, soul and mind, Suzie employs a trauma-informed cognitive-behavioral model of therapy, as well as other online resources to enable survivors to step into their personal power, heal past their pain, and thrive.
 
A Certified Sex Addiction Therapist Supervisor (CSAT-S) and Certified Multiple Addiction Therapist Supervisor (CMAT-S), Suzie is a Canadian Certified Addiction Counsellor (CCAC), Internationally Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor, and Board-Certified Sex Therapist. She holds a Master’s Degree from the University of Plymouth, and in 2020 completed her PhD in Clinical Sexology from the International Institute of Clinical Sexology.
 
Having endured a long road of medical complications and surgeries that impeded Suzie from enjoying a normal adolescence and young adulthood, Suzie developed disordered eating as a result of the physical pain she felt, and spent years being dismissed by doctors as having a psychosomatic illness. When a series of surgical procedures to repair her large intestine and bowel resulted in sepsis and a life-threatening emergency, Suzie was treated with a temporary ostomy. She soon became familiar with the logistical and emotional challenges of life with an ostomy bag, including issues of her bag leaking and falling off, low self-esteem, intimacy concerns, shame and trouble accepting her new body. When the procedure to finally resolve the issue led to a brutally slow recovery process, near-death experience and painful tenure in the ICU, Suzie wished more than once that she had not been resuscitated to continue to endure her suffering.
 
By the end of 2015, however, Suzie was once again able to live ostomy-free and has remained so, ever since. As she healed, physically and emotionally, she realized she could make a difference in the lives and experiences of others, by giving them the resources and support that had not been available to her. She wrote the mini-book series 5 Things I Wish I knew Before I Got an Ostomy and is currently releasing her next publications; Ostomy 101 – A Survival Kit to Sexual Healing and an accompanying Self-Healing Journal.
 
Suzie is also launching her Clinically Proven Treatment Method – The Kintsu Method – The Art of Repairing the Broken Self with Gold. Ostomates and others who have experienced trauma related to medical procedures (for instance mastectomies or childbirth) can benefit from this method by taking part in her Master Class (for free) and through one of her online courses – Finding Normalcy – Learning to Accept My New Normal or Bodily Mastery – Transforming Your Life.
 
She is passionate about her work and proud to be able to sublimate the pain she experienced to ease the struggle of other ostomates during their journeys.
