Chassity was born on October 10th, 1987, in Knoxville, TN to William Wright and Angela Brown. She was a kind and loving person, vibrant and beyond talented doing hair and eyebrows. If you ever had Chassity style your hair you can say the queen of hair has retired her braiding skills to live in heaven. She touched the lives of many with her gift, and dedication of making you look good when you left her chair. She loved going to thrift stores and her daddy would dread seeing the many bags brought in the house and her saying “daddy that was something I couldn’t leave behind”.
