About J'Nique

ABOUT J’Nique
I’m J’Nique, a registered nurse and functional medicine practitioner with a passion for helping women understand what their bodies are really saying.
After years of seeing women struggle with symptoms that were dismissed, overlooked, or treated with temporary fixes, I chose a different approach. I focus on root causes, not just lab ranges or surface-level answers. Through functional testing, personalized coaching, and education, I help women reconnect with their bodies and move toward real, lasting healing.
My work centers on issues like hair and scalp health, hormones, gut imbalances, fatigue, and chronic stress. Healing isn’t about perfection. It’s about clarity, support, and having a plan that finally makes sense for your body.
Values
​MISSION STATEMENT
My mission is to guide women back into reconnection with their bodies. I help them understand the messages their symptoms have been trying to communicate and teach them how to restore balance from the inside out through medical science, trichology, cosmetology, and functional medicine. I am committed to creating a space where women feel seen, supported, and empowered to reconnect with their health, their confidence, and their sense of self.
​VISION STATEMENT
My vision is a world where women are deeply reconnected to their bodies and no longer feel dismissed, confused, or disconnected from their own health. I envision women who trust themselves again, who understand the language of their symptoms, and who feel fully equipped to heal through true root cause clarity. I am building a community where reconnection becomes the foundation for long lasting health, balance, and transformation.
MY STORY
​​
J’Nique Smith is a Registered Nurse, Certified Trichologist, Integrative Health Practitioner, a Board Certified Drugless Practitioner, a Cosmetology Graduate and "The Root Cause Guide" for hair, scalp, and whole-body imbalances. She spent more than twelve years as a Registered Nurse before transitioning into the holistic space. Her medical background taught her the science of the body, but her personal health struggles taught her the truth: symptoms never happen randomly. They never happen in isolation.
​
Her journey began in her twenties when she struggled with persistent scalp flakes, bloating, joint pain, headaches, brain fog, and severe vaginal itching that left her scratching herself raw and bleeding. She sought help from doctors across multiple cities and states, but every visit ended the same way: creams, pills, temporary answers, and “your labs look normal.” Nothing changed.
​
At home she tried everything. She changed her shampoos. Increased her wash frequency. Grew out her relaxer. Chopped her hair. Swapped out detergents. Replaced products. Tried DIY remedies. Changed underwear fabrics. Upgraded her skincare. Cleaned up her household items. The issues continued.
​
When she studied trichology, she learned this truth: the scalp is a messenger. But she also sensed there was something deeper something happening inside the body that wasn’t being addressed. That desire for deeper understanding led her into functional medicine.
Functional medicine changed everything.
​
She became her first test subject. Through functional labs, she discovered imbalances her doctors never caught. Through targeted protocols, she brought her body back into balance. And without even trying, every symptom she had been battling for years disappeared at the same time. Her scalp flakes. Her painful periods. Her bloating. Her joint pain. Her headaches. Her vaginal itching. Her brain fog. All gone.
​
Accidentally, she had found the method that worked.
​
Along the way, she also completed cosmetology training and interned under a licensed cosmetologist to better understand the products, chemical choices, tools, and industry practices that impact the hair and scalp. This knowledge now helps her connect the dots between what happens on the outside of the body and what happens inside.
​
Today, J’Nique helps women reconnect with their bodies, understand their symptoms, and heal from the root using a blend of medical science, trichology, functional medicine, and lived experience. Her mission is to guide women who feel dismissed, confused, or stuck and show them that their bodies are not breaking down. They are communicating.
​
Her work is built on one core belief:
The body always speaks. Reconnection is how we listen.
