 Creator of Soma Perju™ · Hairstylist of 25 years · Founder of AP Hair Bar

 

I have spent 25 years with my hands on heads.

 

Salons. Cruise ships. And now my own ritual studio in Kelowna, BC.

 

Thousands of clients across that span. Thousands of women who taught me — slowly, year by year — that the work I do with my hands was reaching deeper than I had words for.

 

For most of those 25 years, I thought I was a hairstylist.

 

Then I started to notice something.

 

Clients would come in for a service and leave changed. Not relaxed — *changed.* They would sit in the chair afterward and not want to leave. They would call me weeks later to tell me their headache had not come back. That they were sleeping differently. That their jaw had stopped clenching at night.

 

I didn't have a name for what I was doing. But I knew it wasn't just scalp work.

 

Over the years, I refined it. The pacing. The breath. The specific cranial points that, when held with intention, would shift a body out of fight-or-flight and into rest in minutes. I started filming. I started teaching. I started naming it.

 

I call it **Soma Perju™.**

 

*Soma* — somatic. Out of the head, into the body.

*Perju* — my surname. No one else created this. No one else can own it.

 

It is a dry cranial regulation method. Breath-led, presence-driven, intentional touch through specific points on the crown. It lives inside every ritual I do at AP Hair Bar — and it is the method I now teach to practitioners across North America.

 

I am the only one teaching this.

 

I'm not a doctor. I'm not a therapist. I'm a hairstylist who has spent two and a half decades learning what hands at the crown can do when they're slow enough and present enough to listen.

 

If that is the work you have been searching for, I am here.
