Products and services: "I provide hair services for men, women and children while specializing in designer haircuts, color correction and custom color, foil highlights/lowlights, up-dos and event styles and waxing services.

Target market: Clients who want a stylist who listens and can provide the same high-end services without the high-end price.
How did you get into your business, and what motivated you to start it? "I always wanted to be a hair designer from a young age.

Previous business experience: "I began my hair designing career three years ago in Austin, Texas. I started working as an independent stylist and plan to do so throughout my career."
