Today we’d like to introduce you to Roneeka Mortimer.
Hi Roneeka, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
It all started when I was a little girl playing in my baby doll’s hair yesss, I was obsessed with styling my doll’s hair. I’d get up extra early before school to do my mom’s hair, then my sisters’ and my friend’s too. On weekends, my sisters, friends, and nieces were my little guinea pigs whenever I wanted to try a new style.
At 16, I became a shampoo girl and studied seasoned stylists like crazy. After cosmetology school, I mastered my craft. Now I proudly own Aqua Clinique Beauty & Brows in Cutler Bay, serving my community and helping every woman leave my chair with confidence.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Not at all. It was very hard. I reached out to women who were extremely successful in their businesses, asking for advice and guidance. I heard “no” more times than I can count. I simply wanted direction, but I learned quickly that not everyone is willing to share the game.
That’s when I realized it’s all trial and error—experience is truly the best teacher. Those moments didn’t break me; they built me. They pushed me to go harder, invest in myself even more, trust my vision, and become the mentor I once needed.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I’m the proud owner of Aqua Clinique Beauty & Brows, and I’m both a licensed hairstylist and brow artist. I specialize in enhancing natural beauty—especially brows. My signature service is brow tinting, and I’m also known for detailed eyebrow design and hair extensions. Whether it’s hair or brows, I focus on creating soft , natural customized results that fit my clients.
What I’m most proud of is the confidence shift. When a woman looks in the mirror and you see that smile and posture change, that’s everything to me. I’m also proud that I built my business from the ground up and created a space where women feel comfortable, heard, and truly taken care of.
What sets me apart is my attention to detail and how personal I make the experience. I don’t rush. I map, I explain, and I educate my clients on what works best for them. I genuinely care about the outcome, and my clients feel that. It’s more than a service—it’s about confidence and feeling beautiful every day.
In terms of your work and the industry, what are some of the changes you are expecting to see over the next five to ten years?
I see the beauty industry, especially brows and hair, becoming even more personalized and client-focused. People want customized services, high-quality products, and results that enhance their natural beauty. Trends like brow lamination, hybrid brows, and holistic hair care are growing, and clients are looking for a full experience—not just a service.
At Aqua Clinique Beauty & Brows, we’re evolving with that. We’re adding our own products and expanding our services so clients can get everything they need in one place. I see the future as a mix of education, quality, and innovation—helping women feel confident, whether it’s through brows, hair, or the products they take home. It’s all about giving more value and creating a community around beauty.
