Today we’d like to introduce you to Kiyana Wright
Hi kiyana, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I opened The Beauty Blueprint in February of 2019. At the time, I was a junior at Georgia Southern University to obtain my Bachelor’s in Business. I started a business on a whim, not even realizing the impact it would have on my life. I accepted clients the very next day after taking a lash course. I would market myself verbally at school, online, email marketing & word of mouth. My services were very inexpensive, due to being new in the industry. However, I was fully booked every single week when I wasn’t in class or working part time at Walmart Supercenter in Statesboro. Within that same year, I gradually increased my prices. I also began selling cosmetic retail products within the first year, which has been great too. I have relocated over the years from Statesboro to Pooler, back to Statesboro. Every year I had been blessed beyond measures to be fully booked with clients & product sales have increased tremendously over the years. In 2023, I decided to invest into a brick in mortar business, consisting of salon suites, which is where I reside now. I recently just celebrated 6 years as a business owner. I plan on continuously investing in myself for years to come.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Absolutely not. Lol. There are plenty of ups & downs when running a business. Some of the struggles I faced were having to learn to manage finances, juggle school, work, & business, as well as still find time for myself.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about The Beauty Blueprint?
The Beauty Blueprint is exclusively a lash bar. However, I offer face/body waxing & lip services as well. I specialize in lash extensions, which is what I am most known for. I sell all of the products needed to actually do lash extensions, too. Personally, I’d say my drive sets me apart. I’ve been consistent & dedicated to my craft for the past 6 years. I am proud to have built a brand alone & to see it flourish daily. As for the readers, I would love to service you all one day.
Where do you see things going in the next 5-10 years?
The beauty industry is ALWAYS evolving. Over the next 5-10 years, I know there will be changes within trends, styles, & products too.
