You are on this page because you're curious about the woman behind the company, right? Well, here it goes...I am a mother of two, a daughter, a friend (and/or cousin!) to many. As a little girl I observed as my mother sat at her vanity, getting ready for the day. Saturdays were shopping days. We'd dawdle over breakfast, get ready and head to the mall. Woodward & Lothrop was our main stop. Anyone remember "Woodies"?? ;-) One of my aunts worked for the Borghese counter at the time so we'd stop and say hello before heading to the "Hot Shop" for lunch. (Typical child, always had to be fed before my mom could shop!)
Over the years I learned many tricks and tips from my mother. She taught me to wax before I ever stepped foot in a skin care school. I was bleaching, tweezing and primping, always natural and age-appropriate of course. I always enjoyed everything related to beauty but it wasn't until high school when I started working as a receptionist in a day spa that I learned the professional aspect of the beauty industry. I've worked with hairstylists, nail technicians, managers, owners, estheticians and massage therapists for many years. I enjoyed every moment of being in the salon environment but I remember dreaming of being "upstairs" in the quiet and serenity of the spa rooms. I was to make that dream come true a few years later.
