Dallas, Texas

As she continued, graduation came sooner than she expected and due to her leadership team work and work ethic she was awarded and received Valedictorian. As her journey proceeded, she took the necessary steps to obtain her license and in no time became a full time Esthetician. Ongoing Education was provided for not only skin but lashes and brows as well. So, she had the opportunity to explore and add many services under her belt.
