Meet Erica
Hello, beautiful. I’m Erica McCamey, founder of E Luxe Hair and a third-generation licensed cosmetologist based in Houston, Texas.
My love for beauty began long before I ever picked up a pair of shears. Growing up in Detroit in the ’90s, my mother worked as a nail technician, and I was what we lovingly called a “shop kid.” After school and on weekends, I spent countless hours in the salon alongside my mother and aunts, surrounded by women, beauty, fashion, and conversation. It was there that my appreciation for beauty—and my eye for style—began to take shape.
While attending North Carolina A&T State University, I began teaching myself the art of extensions. What started as curiosity quickly became a passion. I was taking clients out of my tiny dorm room, installing sew-ins for anyone willing to sit in my chair, and discovering that hair was more than a creative outlet—it was something I could build a career around.
In 2013, I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Family and Consumer Sciences, with a concentration in Fashion Merchandising and Design, and moved to Houston to pursue a career in fashion and luxury retail. I spent several years in merchandising and management with luxury brands including Burberry and Neiman Marcus, experiences that shaped my understanding of elevated service, presentation, quality, and the details that define a luxury experience.
But eventually, I found myself being pulled back to my first love: HAIR.
In 2018, I took a leap of faith and enrolled in cosmetology school, officially returning to the industry I had been drawn to my entire life. Today, I bring together my background in fashion, luxury retail, and beauty to create an experience that is distinctly E Luxe.
My work centers around luxury extensions, healthy hair, custom wigs, textured hair, polished styling, and natural-looking transformations. I believe extensions should enhance your beauty—not announce themselves. The goal is always hair that looks intentional, seamless, and undeniably you.
Over the years, working with women from different backgrounds and with a variety of hair goals has given me an even deeper understanding of what clients truly need from their hair. That understanding inspired me to expand E Luxe beyond the chair through our collection of luxury hair extensions and hair care products, thoughtfully developed with quality, versatility, and longevity in mind.
My work has also taken me beyond the salon and into fashion, editorial, bridal, and high-profile styling, allowing me to work alongside some of the industry’s most talented artists and creative teams. These experiences continue to influence my approach to beauty: elevated, modern, intentional, and never ordinary.
At its heart, E Luxe is about more than beautiful hair. It’s about confidence, craftsmanship, and the luxury of feeling like the best version of yourself.
Welcome to E Luxe Hair.
