This just feels like the appropriate time to publicly remind you that for this account, my business, my personal values-

It’s ALWAYS abolish ICE
It’s ALWAYS f**k Trump
It’s ALWAYS free Palestine
It’s ALWAYS protect trans folks
It’s ALWAYS no human being is illegal
It’s ALWAYS Black Lives Matter
It’s ALWAYS love is love
It’s ALWAYS eat the rich

& bottom line, it’s ALWAYS people over profit. Not all money is good money. I can’t control the state of our country (& the fact that it’s on fire) but I can control how I use my voice, where I spend my money/whose money I take & how I show up for my community. If this post doesn’t resonate with you, please don’t sit in my chair. I’m not looking for transactional relationships, I’m looking for a village.

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH FOLKS🏳️‍🌈
I always strive to use this platform to build an authentic business. Being authentic for me means being fearlessly q***r.

This month I plan on sharing as many personal experiences, educational resources, and empowering content from others as I possibly can.

Big THANK YOU to everyone who supports my little q***r owned business!

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

HAPPY MONTH FOLKS🌈

I'll be honest.. I really wanted to post the super cute posed & hella filtered photo I took in front of this flag to kick off pride month. The one without the double chin and squinty eyes.

But this photo is so important because it's a raw & real photo of me living my truth and loving every minute of my very q***r life.. Something I once thought would never exist or be possible (& still isn't for so many people).

This I want to use my platform to not only educate but also to learn and grow as much as possible. Stay tuned for tips on running an LGBTQ+ friendly business & more🌈

You know that math lady meme? Yeah, I feel like her often😅 It's the details for me

It’s been a while since I gave y’all a skin update so here it is! It’s been a long road. I know I’m a hair expert but if you’re frustrated with your skin, I do have some tips.

🧪Find an esthetician that will EDUCATE you. If your esthetician loves on your skin and sends you on your way, they are doing you a disservice. Use beauty industry professionals with the heart of a teacher.

🧪 You NEED pharmaceutical-grade products. Say goodbye to Target, Sephora, etc. I know that as millennials we love a good packaging moment but these ingredients are typically crap. I spend way less money sticking to the routine recommended to me by and get way better results.

🧪Change your diet. Specifically- cut out dairy. My hair, skin and gut health is a million times better since going vegan three years ago.

🧪BE CONSISTENT. It takes time and it’s not easy.

🧪Give up the makeup. I know the feeling when you have acne and your skin is bare. You feel naked, like it’s all anyone can see. But the more you keep your skin clean, the quicker it can heal. It’s a vicious cycle.

Two last thoughts while I have skin on my mind💭

Can we please normalize normal skin? It’s normal to have a blemish, freckles, moles, pores, etc. In an Instagram world I think we forget what it’s like to be human.

Lastly, I want to HIGHLY recommend my friend Amy if you are looking for an esthetician. She will heal your skin and your soul✨ She’s the type of woman will add value to your life. I trust her with my whole face🧖🏻‍♀️
