I have been a hair stylist and make up artist for 22 years. From the moment I could style my barbie dolls hair, hair styling became a natural thing for me. All through school I was the designated “hair stylist” to all of my friends. As soon as I graduated from high school I went straight to Cosmetology School and not soon after going to beauty school I was the designated stylist to all of my peers, students would come to my class on “personal Day” and want me to do there hair, that feeling you get knowing that fellow soon to be stylist want you to do there hair is something that, sort of validates you, so to speak. It lets you know that your on the right track and that something that comes so effortless to you,can make people feel so good about them selves.
I was an entrepernural at 24 and after competing in several hair competitions and winning, I was asked to represent a product line call D-orum Products after a show in Philadelphia they asked me to go to London and of course I said YES! So I Flew to London twice serving as a platform artist doing hair on stage . I have also traveled to Barbados, Trinidad and New York, all in the name of hair and make up! I worked on several videos and print ads with artist like Lil Kim, Charlie Baltimore, Ce Ce Peniston, Eryka Badu, Jasmin Sulliven, Kindred and the family Soul, The Spooks and Mary J Blige .
I believe that image is something you should take seriously and I also believe that your hair, make up and personal style should reflect who you are as a person, that is why I’m so excited about writing a Beauty Column with QCity metro!
I’ll have tips on hair care , the latest in hair and make up, and the safest Shampoos and Conditoners to use and why.
