We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Natalie/Lauren Chea/Amodeo a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Natalie/Lauren thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?
Timeless Artistry is A Beauty Studio established by two Best friends. (Natalie & Lauren). We both share a passion for helping others feel their most confident.
Our mission of our salon is to provide excellent beauty services in a calm, welcoming environment that leaves our clients feeling pampered & leaving empowered.
In our day to day lives, it is so easy to become overwhelmed with work and everything else outside of work. We strive to provide the upmost comfort for all of our clients. Lauren & I, firmly believe that our services we offer goes above and beyond just lashes, makeup and brows. By nurturing both inner and outer beauty, we believe that our clients will look and feel their best self.
Here at Timeless Artistry, we not only offer beauty services, we offer a friend, a shoulder to lean on & a safe space.
Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.
Both Owners of Timeless Artistry has always had a passion for all things beauty. Being a woman in this society is hard enough. If we could share our talent with other woman to make them feel their best, why not? From being able to express our creativity to empowering other people. It is a very rewarding job.
Working in the beauty industry can become toxic at times if you’re just starting out. You don’t know any rules, you’re still learning as you go. It’s easy to be manipulated from working long hours, long services and only getting 20%-30% commission. Which is why we both strive to be the best bosses we can be not only to ourselves but to our future employees also.
Discipline is a great characteristic to have. Timeless Artistry has been open for a little under a year so we both are learning as we go. Discipline is a way of being honest, hard working, motivated & successful. We take pride in our craft and what we offer as a beauty salon. We provide, high quality, Long lasting Lash extensions as well as makeup and brows. Lash extensions, makeup and brows are all three very different things that really can take your look up a notch while giving us a creative space to cater to our clients wants and needs.
We offer subtle enhancements for certain eye shapes. But we also offer versatile options in case of special events or preferences.
Anyone can be a Lash, brow, makeup artist but not everyone can cater to the health of the clients Natural Lash, or perfectly color match foundation on all skin colors. We understand that although trends come and go Timeless beauty always remains.
We want our potential clients/followers to know that we appreciate each and everyone of you for supporting us, inspiring us, and trusting us to bring your visions, beauty goals to life.
We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.
In 2021, We decided to take a chance and start our own booth rental together. We were both sick and tired of working under people who only seen money as the end goal. Due to our contract with our old salon that we both worked at at the time, we had to work our way around a certain amount of miles within the salon for a non compete. Therefore, losing most of our clients and having to start from scratch again. The booth we were renting at was located in a different city which made it very hard to gain clients being that we weren’t from there. We say that to say this, no matter how many times you fail if it is your dream, if it is your passion don’t quit. Keep trying. We opened up Timeless Artistry in late 2023 and our business has been thriving ever since. Thanks to all of our wonderful clients.
How’d you meet your business partner?
We met at our very first salon job and have been friends ever since. It’s been 4 years since we’ve been friends and I can’t express how much of a blessing it is to be able to share a business/passion with my best friend. Someone who I can trust, confide in and knows how to handle business through the good times and bad. (:
