Accomplishments

Extending my services beyond just hair, after studying, practicing, taking and receiving my eyelash extension certification with Lash Box L.A or otherwise known as LBLA May of 2022, my craft in this industry has grown to be a success. I intend to continue my education in this field to become highly skilled and bring many designs to future lash clientele.



Because the hair industry is high in demand for hair extensions I was able to take a class at the real mc hair salon in Midland Tx August of 2020 and have since perfected my skill in the popular Hand-Tied Extensions. Continuing education in this field is a must to ensure I’m giving my clients the absolute best.
