Summary

In summary, Hair is something I've always been passionate about, started doing it on dolls, cousins, mom and neighbors before I was a teenager.

Its something I'm passionate about.

The business side was something I had to learn, but I watched and learned from those the taught, or who employed.

I provided a community driven business, made everyone feel at home, taken care of, and welcomed.

My super power was knowing every regulars name, And having up to 9 employees at a time. It was an ability I was very proud of. And got told it often by those many clients over the years.
