Meet The Visionary

ina Denise is a devoted wife, proud mother, U.S. military veteran, and passionate entrepreneur whose journey is deeply rooted in faith, family, and service. As the founder of The Take Down Beauty Bar, LLC and creator of DQ’s Fashion Tees, and Tina Denise The Collection, she has built a brand that reflects her commitment to excellence, community, and holistic beauty.

With a love for Christ and all things red, Tina launched her haircare line in February 2023, introducing a collection of products designed to support healthy hair growth and maintenance. Her signature line includes CALM (Stimulating Hair Oil), ESSENTIAL (Nourishing Hair Balm), and VERSATILE (Twist & Loc Gel Plus Edge Control)—each crafted with purpose and care to meet the needs of both natural and relaxed hair.

Beyond product development, Tina’s salon, The Take Down Beauty Bar, is known for its team of licensed cosmetologists and natural hair stylists who specialize in a wide range of services, including the highly sought-after “take down” service—the safe removal of sew-ins and braided styles. Her vision is to create a welcoming space where clients of all ethnic backgrounds can relax, be pampered, and feel celebrated.

Tina’s impact extends far beyond the salon chair. She is a dedicated community activist, hosting annual Back-to-School events that provide free hairstyles, haircuts, and backpacks filled with school supplies. Her outreach also includes sponsoring schools with monetary donations and essential items to support high school seniors and teenage mothers in need.

Guided by the principle, “As Christ leads, I will follow,” Tina Denise continues to grow her brand with grace, purpose, and a heart for expansion. Her story is one of resilience, faith, and unwavering dedication to uplifting others—one strand, one style, and one soul at a time.
