We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Latasha Boddy a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Latasha, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Looking back, do you think you started your business at the right time? Do you wish you had started sooner or later
I always knew that the beauty industry held a special place in my heart. I attended cosmetology school in 2006 in Hattiesburg, MS. Unfortunately, life happened and I didn’t finish the program. Fast forward 16 years later, I wanted to accomplish the goal I set out many years ago and I enrolled in an esthetics program and became a licensed esthetician. I sometimes wonder if I had finished years ago where would I be now in my career. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason and my path happened just how it should have. I am so happy that I accomplished that goal.
Latasha, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I got into the esthetics industry honestly by having a chat with my lash tech while getting my lashes done. During that conversation I received support and confirmation that I needed to finish what I started many years ago.
I am a licensed esthetician located in Frisco, TX providing advanced facial treatments, brow transformations and body waxing services.
I want every person male or female that enters my studio to feel confident and supported. Beauty starts within.
We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.
In today’s economy it has been hard as a new business owner to grow consistent clientele due to inflation and all the other thousand of things people are dealing with daily.
I am aware of the climate that we are all facing; however, I continue to show up daily for myself and my business. Whether it be brainstorming content ideas, education on different services and products or taking models to continue to grow. I will not give up
Where do you think you get most of your clients from?
Social media and word of mouth. Consistently posting via Instagram, Facebook or TikTok and having supporters share to their platforms and tell their family and friends.
