FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I help our stylists keep up to date on their continuing education. I join them at times in class, and also have taken classes to help me be the best owner/manager I can be. I develop the marketing for my company, so I also have to be on top of trends.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I got into the beauty industry because of a chemical issue I had experienced in 2000. After reacting to some home repair products and coloring my hair, my hormones were disrupted and it caused me terrible health problems. I have always been sensitive. Finding my way out of my health problem helped me discover a new world of cosmetics and skincare. I wanted to share what I learned with others. This led me to becoming a retailer online at www.bewellstaywell.com first. After several years, I ventured into having a boutique locally. By 2012 I started a salon which I've updated and expanded in 2013. I'm excited how my health transformed by making changes for healthier products. It excites me that I can help others and have had over 10 years of helping others. My community loves our boutique and salon and find it out of place in our city as it has a big city feel yet homey.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
I feel that my most common thing I do for my clients is provide them with choices. Since we have several stylists, I can provide the best one that fits the clients need. Our stylists all specialize in something, but they are professional stylists, so they put the same effort into other areas of services. We also provide choices in products. We aren't your typical salon or boutique. We know that women all have different needs such as seeking gluten free choices, issues with scents, needing basic haircuts to more sophisticated. We also have many brides come in, so we have to be able to provide bridal services and have a pleasant place to provide that service.
