Today we’d like to introduce you to Tiffany Quach. Them and their team share their story with us below:
A History of Greatness Founded in 2014, BELLEZZA BEAUTY BAR is owned by a Refugee mother and her two daughters. The mother of the two came to America because “home” wasn’t an option and wanted better for her girls, Coming from a poor country and working hard labor jobs wasn’t an ideal life for anyone.
So working 3 different jobs, barely slept 4 hours a night, and barely made ends meet while my husband was at sea for work. While going bankrupt after a failed business attempt, and a divorce “Mama Kim” was forced to learn how to do nails to make a living for her girls.
(By the way, no Asian wants to do nails because of the obvious stereotype it makes them feel only limited to doing just that and not grow into what they can be which is “more”) because that is “considered” the easy way out in the Vietnamese culture.
So the parents learn the craft to provide for the kids to be able to focus on school and not work. Sacrificing for the next generation. By the time mama Kim has learned the craft her daughter Alisha has already been doing it since the age of 12 to help take care of herself so mom won’t have to do all the work. Then came the youngest daughter
Tiffany learned the craft at 14, in 2013 Youngest daughter Tiffany dropped out of college due to falling behind in school due to health problems, after her recovery was the beginning of “BELLEZZA BEAUTY BAR” which started from a simple business idea and turned into a mission driven by a passion for caring for quality nail services and excellent customer service, striving to be different than your average quick salon.
But instead focus on understanding the client and listening, at the same time educate clients on how to properly care for their nails with our professional opinion instead of just taking your money to make a quick buck, also always striving to build a longtime relationship while making sure to go above and beyond on cleanliness to ensure the safety of the clients while creating a calm atmosphere to unwind and build confidence.
Bellezza Beauty Bar is a gift from Alisha & Tiffany to mama Kim to prove to her that her hard work from taking care of them and raising them with love and strength paid off and to show that you can be a successful “stereotype” and still build your empire to be able to touch and change lives of every woman we can while in business leaving our mark in this world
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
We have added money issues to keep going being young and going through trials and tribulations.
Trusting others to easy. We got scammed by a contractor opening our new salon for over $20k and also got robbed by an electrical company before getting scammed by the contractor.
And lost all of our hard-earned supplies, and custom furniture we built with overtime of working between the old salon and trying to prep the new location. Also during Covid as well.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Bellezza Beauty Bar?
