Today we’d like to introduce you to Olivia Parker.
Olivia, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
A rough year was coming to an end for and I was down and out I remember strolling on Instagram and I came across a picture of the mink eyelash extensions I could not get away from the pic I was so fascinated by these extension… being frugal I tried to teach myself by looking at YouTube that was a fail…. one day having a conversation.
With my mom, I asked her “Hey ma, if I take my money and invest it in myself. Do you think I’ll do go?” Her response was of course that’s the only way. Granted, I got my income tax return and I bought all my supplies I mean everything including the table and at this point, I still didn’t know how to do lashes. I finally took a training and practiced like crazy and within six months, my business took off… now my business has flourished with not only lash services but also facial services.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
It most definitely wasn’t a smooth road… learning how to actually deal with people; the different personalities maintaining professionalism learning how to balance being a mom and a business owner.
