What is your background?

“My background in beauty started in Hair! I was fresh out of school and thought I knew EVERYTHING! LOL! When I got hired by the most amazing Human Being ever, he said that I was only going to be hired on ONE condition…that I forget EVERYTHING I learned in school! HA!  It was always a battle with my parents as it was not their wish for me to be in beauty and to do something “normal” with my life! I did banking, government etc… but always felt pulled back towards the beauty industry!”

What made you want to open Milk and Honey?

“I officially took over Milk and Honey last September! 🙂  COVID, fear of the unknown…who cares! I did it! I am now the proud Owner of Milk and Honey Beauty Bar! <3”

 

For someone who hasn’t been to the shop before, what is your business? What makes it special?

“It started out as a Brow Bar, lash services and Microblading were put on the menu, and I am excited to guide it into the future by adding more in-depth Laser, Facials (skincare), Nails services and Permanent Make-up.

We are an inclusive and safe space. We want everyone to feel looked after and cared for each and every time. Connection is everything, and we are so very grateful that we have a fierce and loyal Clientelle <3”

What inspires you?

“I am inspired by fear, yes, that’s right…fear! Covid was and is a very uncertain time and I have always LOVED a challenge! You just gotta keep going and going!”

 

Why downtown?

“Downtown is exciting! you have a motley crew of people! The smells from the curry places to freshly brewed coffee…it’s the heart of ANY place!”

What advice would you give to others who want to start a business? What would you have liked to know before you opened yours?

“Follow your gut! Trust your natural instinct and your intuition. The “brain” analytical stuff is easy, but learn to follow your “feels”.

I don’t think I would have wanted to know anything….there is no adventure in that! :P”
