3. What was your profession before you became an entrepreneur? Contract Administrator for Kronos Inc.
4. How did you feel when you left the previous gig? “Nervous, scared, excited or all the above. Elaborate I was always a hairstylist on the side of working a full time job. When I was laid off in ’09 I had to depend on being a hairstylist full time. That’s when reality really kicked in. There were slow days and that really made me a little nervous because I wasn’t getting a guaranteed check every two weeks … so I had to look at the brighter side of things … I’m doing what I love and that’s making my sistas look beautiful:)
