I didn’t grow up knowing I’d be a lash artist. In fact, when I first started, I had zero experience, a marketing major I wasn’t sure about, and a whole lot of doubt. But I did have a gut feeling and I followed it. I scraped together money to take a lash course, practiced nonstop, and opened my books not long after. I was nervous. I was figuring it out as I went. And somehow, I made it work.

Million Dollar Minks was built in between classes, late nights, and figuring life out one lash at a time. I had no business plan, just a deep love for the beauty industry and a fire to break cycles as a first-gen entrepreneur. This brand is for the girls who want more. The artists who feel like they’re starting from scratch. The creatives who know they’ve got something in them even if they don’t know how it’ll all play out yet.

If you’re here, you belong. MDM isn’t just a brand—it’s a place to grow, to learn, to mess up and try again. And whether you’re picking up your first pair of tweezers or leveling up your artistry, I’m cheering you on. If I can do it, you can too. And I’m right here with you.
