If you’ve made it this far first let me say thank you! Not everyone makes it to the About Me page which means: you’re special. Why? Because you cared enough to get here which hopefully means you care enough to read about me which in turn means: I care about you!
You see, that’s kinda how I work..you scratch my back and ill scratch yours ;). Our tech-client relationship is based largely on trust, respect, and love. Every client of mine has a story and I’m thrilled to be even the smallest part of it so I make sure that what I can do for you will impact you in every positive way possible. My space is child-friendly, work-friendly, and 420 friendly. Any issue another tech may have given you don’t exist here. This is real life and shit happens, which is why I don’t charge late fees or rescheduling fees. I hand out discounts like crazy and give away snacks, drinks, and cuticle oils. what more could a girl want? Experience? Skill? Licensing? Well, I’ve got all those too!
Graduating from The Hollywood Institute of Beauty Careers in Hollywood, Florida in October of 2021, before I enrolled in beauty school I had no idea what to do next. The pandemic had hit the year before, forcing me away from my early career as a tattooist. During all of 2020 I transferred all of my creative energy to painting acrylic on canvas, taking commissions and selling my original works. By the end of that year, my art graced the walls of homes in 17 different states throughout the country and across several different canvases including a 5-piece drum set, X-box game controller, Gucci sandals, Cap & gowns, computer desks, & the list goes on…..but as the stimulus checks stopped, so did the orders. From there, I was at a loss, until my godfather one day asked me for a pedicure.
No surprise there, as I’ve always been the one of my friends and family to take care of those things for my loved ones, Painting nails, doing pedicures, facials, hair, eyebrows—you name it and I did a home-version (a damned good one if I do say so myself). I gave my godfather his pedicure and it ended with him saying “girl, why aren’t you doing this professionally??”. I laughed it off and thanked him for the compliment, finding myself later that day researching requirements to enroll into nail school here in South Florida. Art had been all I wanted to do for those past 3 years—and now I can put it on nails. It’ll work, right?
Well, it did. While I was in school, i landed a gig at a day spa so I could apply some hands-on work to the texts. It got my foot in the door, but I wanted to be in a big-boy nail salon. So the second I graduated, I left the spa and found myself at this swanky, high-end Vietnamese salon where I really learned the tricks of the trade. Here I learned both customer service and business practices—both what to do and what not to do. There wasn’t a day that went by where I didn’t make a mental (or actual!) note to apply towards my own future business. after about 9 months I felt ready. I had around 20 regular clients booking with me at the salon and I was growing quickly in popularity due to my detailed work. I found a studio and took the leap—only taking 3 clients with me from the salon.
Now here I am! With my own set of regular clients, supporting myself and my family of 4 by making you feel beautiful. I can’t do it without my wonderful clients and supporters and for you I am so so grateful <3.
