Clipping Stereotypes with Jenelle Tilley

When Jenelle Tilley opened Bonnie and Clyde Barbershop, she wasn’t just opening a business. She was stepping into a space where women usually aren’t invited and proving she belonged there from day one. As a female shop owner in a male dominated industry, Jenelle has had to earn respect the hard way, not just with her skills behind the chair but with the culture she’s built inside her shop.

In this episode, Jenelle shares what it’s really been like being the only woman in the room, how she pushed through the doubt, and what leadership looks like when you do it your way. We talk about breaking old norms, creating a space where people feel welcome, and how staying true to yourself can be your biggest strength. Whether you’re in the hair industry or not, this conversation is about more than clippers and fades. It’s about owning your space even when the world doesn’t expect you to.
