QUOTES:
Everyone talks about “How do you make your skin beautiful?”, “How do you make your hair beautiful?”, and beautiful is different versions for all of us.
When women look in the mirror, and they're proud of what they see. It isn't about the perfect body or them being beautiful. It's about being the best version of themselves at the time.
I think that anyone, no matter what people look like, when they feel like their best, I like seeing the confidence that comes out of them.
Good, natural, beautiful hair color never goes out of style.
2020 was the year of self-care and taking care of your hair. But, people are gonna want wow moments. People are gonna want to go out and party and look their best.
I think a lot of people want to have some magical new skin thing they use and a lot of these things take time. You have to test things out, see what works for you, have fun with it.
People are craving realness more than ever right now. They want to see themselves in a photo. They want to feel like they connect.
I like to focus on the positive when something bad happens. I'm like, what can you learn here? When I look back, it really wasn't as hard as I thought it was. It made me stronger.
Make sure you have time to yourself, make that a priority. When we're doing those things, it shows in our energy level, our excitement, and our passion for life.
There's filters everywhere, and everyone's editing their pictures. So we all have this idea of what's perfect. It's just unattainable.
