Ms.Hood

CEO.Educator.Mentor

My name is Ms. Hood, and yes sis, that’s really my last name! I have been a dedicated professional in the Esthetics and lash industry since 2017. After earning my Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing and Communications from Linfield College in 2017, I pursued my passion by attending a beauty school in Portland to obtain my Esthetician's License.

 

Since then, I have had the privilege of training and mentoring over 200 students, and I’ve managed a lash retail line. My entrepreneurial journey began in my living room in 2018 and am now expanded into a spacious 1500-square-foot salon, reflecting my growth in the industry. 

 

In 2024 I launched School of Esthetics, in collaboration with Champions Barbering Institute!  Here, I offer a robust 10 certification program for esthetics professionals, as well as a 4 certification program focused on lash artistry. I am passionate about bringing the textbook to life and transforming theory into practice for my student professionals! 

 

In my personal time, I cherish moments with my family, traveling to different cities and recharging my mind and body through self care and nature. I strive to help other women improve their financial independence and use entrepreneurship to live their dream lives!
