A few years ago, if I wasn’t behind the chair, I wasn’t making money. Taking time off meant turning down clients and losing income. And for a long time, I thought that was just what came with being a successful hairstylist.

Now I’m waking up in the Italian countryside, celebrating my best friend and realizing how much my definition of success has changed.

I don’t just want a business that pays my bills. I want a business that gives me a life.

I’m still building and figuring things out, but I’ve learned the importance of creating income outside of my appointment calendar, building my personal brand, and turning what I know into something that can make money beyond the hours I physically spend behind the chair.
Because being booked is beautiful, but having options is even better.

If you’re a stylist who’s ready for your income to stop depending solely on how many clients you can physically take, I created Beyond the Followers for you.

It’s a guide to help you look at the skills, knowledge, audience, and experience you’ve already built and learn how to turn them into additional streams of income beyond the chair, so taking a day off, a vacation, or simply working less doesn’t always have to mean making less.

The goal isn’t to stop doing what you love. It’s to build a beauty business that gives you more freedom, more options, and a little more ease.

Beyond the Followers is available now at the link in my bio on our Education page. 

And because I know y’all are going to ask about the hair

turns out, starting over can look really good on you.

new city. new decade. new business. new rooms. new versions of me. 🤍

30 taught me that you don’t have to have everything figured out to know when you’ve outgrown what’s familiar. sometimes you just have to trust God, trust yourself, and be willing to see what’s on the other side.

now, with 31 right around the corner, I can look back and see that so much of what felt like starting over was really God making room for what was next.

30 was less about starting over and more about becoming.

and apparently… becoming is kinda chic. ✨

Happy birthday to my grandmother, “Baby Ruth.”

I recreated this photo of her because I wanted to start this next chapter by honoring where it all came from. She was a hairstylist herself, long before I ever picked up a comb, and from a young age she fostered my love for hair. She planted the seed of entrepreneurship in me too, showing me what it looked like to build something of your own. She’s one of the first women who taught me what real work ethic looks like, and to always show up as my best self, no matter what.

Thank you Grandma🤍

That’s why the brand is called Tempest Ruth Hair. It’s not just a name, it’s everything she gave me, in everything I build.

This Friday, the website goes live. New chapter, same roots. Her legacy continued. ✨

Thank you for helping me bring this vision to life @1markell

Before we ever found each other, God was preparing us for one another. He took two lives, two stories, two hearts, and brought them together in HIS perfect timing.

What we have is more than love. It is friendship, covering, purpose, peace, and a promise to choose each other through every season.

What God has joined together, may we always protect, honor, and cherish.

Our forever begins with God at the center. 🤍

Thank you to all our friends + family who flew in from all over to celebrate with us. The rain washed out our waterfront ceremony but the inside transition and our reception were just as magical. From Friday to Sunday, we were surrounded by the people we love. Everything was beautiful. 

Sending a big thank you to all the people who made it happen. We intentionally worked with black entrepreneurs + brands. The theme was old money. 😆

Thank you for marrying us @georgelparksjr
