Today we’d like to introduce you to Laura Prince.
After spending over 11 years in the medical industry, Laura “Honey” Prince longed for a change of pace. While she loved her career, she knew that she had more to offer. A true entrepreneur at heart, a passion for helping others feel their best and a love for all things glam and beauty related; She decided that a career in the beauty industry would suit her well.
One day after receiving unpleasant treatment and subpar services at a local nail salon, she realized that there was a shortage of qualified professional African American nail techs in her area. She instantly knew that nails was the beauty branch she needed to pursue. She began training at Modern Beauty College and completed the required hours to obtain her license in 2016. Honey Dipp Nails was founded shortly after.
Her clients “trust her process” and are very confident in her work and knowledge. Her top priority is the overall health of the client and their nails. Whether the client is receiving care for their natural nail or a nail enhancement, she practice meticulous rituals to ensure that each services is executed in a clean, sanitized manner and ensures that minimal damage is done to the natural nail.
Second, to the health of the nail, She is all about glam and custom sets. Her signature service is “the Dipp.” she loves to add her unique design aesthetic to each set by mixing and creating her own powders. She has perfected the “what polish” set to be technical.
Clients get long-lasting vibrant custom colors and designs that can only be found at Honey Dipped Nails. Nails have become my passion. She continues to educate myself, learn new techniques and perfect her craft. She hopes to continue to expand her brand and services over the course of the next few years as her clientele continues to grow.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The road was not smooth by far. There were times I wanted to quit as I struggled with my acrylic application. Clients were texting about broken nails, missing crystals, and chipped polish.
I took a step back and educated myself by traveling to different states taking workshops and practicing daily. While working two jobs, I had a lot of sleepless nights, but I was so determined to grow my business, educate others and perfect my craft I never gave up and I’m glad that I didn’t. I am where I am today due to my hard work and dedication. It’s an accomplishment that I am truly proud of.
Honey Dipp Nails – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
My client praise me on my customer service, I think this is very important in any business. Not only do I provide an environment that is comfortable. I really care and educated my clients on the importance of healthy nails. I am also known for my custom colored acrylic, long-lasting nail wear and nail growth for clients who struggle with growing their nails.
What moment in your career do you look back most fondly on?
The proudest moment I had was the day I received my last paycheck as a certified professional medical biller. I went from working for someone else and growing their business to paying myself and being my own boss. Today I am living my best life and I couldn’t be happier.
