About SeeMeYah
SeeMeYah is a UK digital company built for the Black hair and beauty industry. We make the tools that help braiders, locticians, salons and the people around them get found online, and turn that into bookings.
Two sides, one aim
SeeMeYah works in two ways. We're a digital agency, building websites, local search, Google Business Profile setups, content and the systems that keep clients coming back. And we own and run our own platforms: the directories Braiders.co.uk and Loctician.co.uk, and SeeMeYah Media, which covers the people, prices and trends of UK Black hair.
The directories help clients find the right professional near them. The agency side helps those professionals show up and stay booked. Same industry, both ends of it.
Why we do it
The Black hair industry is full of skill. But too many professionals are hard to find online, or lose enquiries because their profile, website or booking route isn't set up to turn interest into a booking.
We build the digital groundwork that fixes that, made around how these businesses actually work rather than a generic template. Get found, build trust, turn searches into bookings.
Who we work with
Braiders, locticians, salons, barbers, mobile stylists, hair educators, product brands and Black hair startups, across the UK.
How we work
Plain English, no jargon, and practical. We start with wherever you're losing visibility or bookings and fix the thing that matters first, rather than selling you everything at once. You'll always know what you're paying for and why.
Who's behind SeeMeYah
SeeMeYah is run by Len Johnson. Len is Black British, with parents who came to the UK from Guyana, and grew up with these styles in the house. Braids have been part of his family across more than three generations, from his sisters and daughters to his nieces and grandchildren, and he's on his own loc journey too. Finding a good stylist, and knowing what a fair price looked like, was a running conversation at home for decades.
By trade he's a web developer, lecturer and SEO, not a stylist, and he won't pretend otherwise. The craft belongs to the professionals. What he can do is build the digital groundwork they're often missing: the sites, local search, Google profiles and systems that put their work in front of the people looking for it. More than a decade in digital sits behind it, and teaching the subject means explaining it plainly is the job. No jargon, no black box.
This is built from inside the community it serves, not by an outsider cashing in on a culture.
"I started SeeMeYah because so many of the Black hair and beauty businesses I came across were brilliant at their craft and badly served online. My job is to close that gap, so the people doing the work are the ones getting found and booked. If that sounds like your business, I'd like to hear from you."
