We recently connected with TKeyah Gadson and have shared our conversation below.

TKeyah , thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. We’d love to have you retell us the story behind how you came up with the idea for your business, I think our audience would really enjoy hearing the backstory.

I always knew that I wanted to be a entrepreneur. I never had a job that I actually enjoyed going to . I took a leap out on faith quit my job to become an entrepreneur. I didn’t know how things would work . I was trusting GOD . I got back into doing hair while also running my retail business . My very first product i came up with was for my son due to his severe hair loss . I began researching looking up different things . I wanted something natural so that everyone could use it . It did way better than I expected and before I knew it I was shipping to many different states .

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

I’m hair stylist / entrepreneur. I got into this industry because it’s something that I always wanted to do as a child . I make natural products . I have a hair growth oil that helps with dryness, cradle cap , bald/ thinning and growth . My golden citrus soap removes dark spots , acne , high pigmentation and psoriasis/eczema . Also , I specialize in natural hair , traditional locs , microlocs, starter locs , soft locs and braids . Problems I solve for my clients I make them feel beautiful / handsome and confident before leaving my chair . What sets me apart from others is I put my all into what I do . . I’m not in it for the money . It’s my passion . I’m most proud of how much I have accomplished in such a short time frame.

Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?

The most effective strategy for growing my clientele . I stay consistent. I make sure that my customer service is always 100% . Also , I promote my business. My clients help with referrals .

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?

What I think helped build my reputation within my market is my attitude . I’m always a positive/ loving person . All my clients feel comfortable coming to me about anything . I try to always build great relationships with my clients . If you treat you clients good they will return and do the marketing for you .
