Today we’re excited to be connecting with Jasmine (jassy) Payne again. If you haven’t already, we suggest you check out our prior conversation with them here.
Jasmine (jassy), we are so thrilled to be connecting again and can’t wait to hear about all the amazing things you have been up to. Before we jump into all of that, some of our readers might have missed our prior interview, so can you take a moment to reintroduce yourself?
I’m Jasmine Payne, known as Jassy, a licensed esthetician in the Dallas metroplex, with 7 years of experience. Balancing a thriving business with two young boys under ten has been a challenge, but with God’s guidance and my husband’s support, my beauty dreams have come to life. In 2020, we began as Serenity Gold Beauty Spa and have since rebranded to Sugared & Smooth Beauty Suites. We specialize in sugar hair removal and skincare treatments, and we now proudly offer affordable beauty suites for new graduates. By providing daily, weekly, or monthly rates, we empower solo estheticians to cultivate their clientele in a nurturing environment. Recognizing the lack of support for solo practitioners, we’ve created a space that caters to their needs. Our commitment has led to a growing demand for our services, showcasing the transformative benefits of sugaring, while our beauty suites remain consistently booked. We are thrilled to play a part in uplifting local estheticians and fostering their success.
Great, so let’s jump into an update on what you have been up to since we last spoke. What can you share with us?
In 2022, we made the significant decision to relocate our business to Grand Prairie, TX, and I genuinely believe it was one of the best choices we’ve made. I understand how challenging it can be to pick up and move nearly 30 miles from where we started. It took a lot of effort and careful thought; we worked tirelessly on marketing strategies in the new area, knowing it was a big gamble but one I was willing to take.
We discovered that many of our loyal clients were already traveling around 20 miles to access our services, which gave us confidence in our move. However, I must admit, the beginning was a bit rough as it took months for our new location to be ready. But in the end, it was certainly worth the wait. It took us six months of dedicated marketing to connect with the local community, encouraging them to see and book with us in our new home. We’ve truly appreciated everyone’s support throughout this transition.
We have now arrived at one of our favorite parts of the interview – the lightning round. We’ll ask you a few quick questions to give us all some fun insights about you.

What do you want people to remember about you and your brand? What are some of things that you feel are most important, unique, special, etc?
We want our brand to be remembered as a compassionate resource that empowers people to understand their skin better and discover ways to enhance their skin health through a holistic approach to skincare products. Additionally, we strive to support fellow estheticians in their journeys by offering a nurturing and affordable environment where they can grow their businesses.
