Today we’d like to introduce you to Lauren Farmer.
Lauren, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
I started my career as an Esthetician at the age of 18. I graduated from Ogle Beauty School in Hurst, TX and immediately started working in my first spa. I spent several years learning the tricks of the trade from some wonderful women in the industry and even spent my early 20’s trying to figure out where exactly I fit into the esthetics world. I have worked everywhere from a typical day spa to medical spa and even a waxing center brushing up on my skills. I am extremely passionate about this industry that I am constantly going to trainings and learning as much as I can to stay up to date to bring my clients not only the best products and services but knowledge of the skin and how to better take care of it from the inside out.
I recently decided it was time after ten years in this industry to go out on my own and open my first spa. In October 2019 Blush N Beauty Spa opened inside Salon Boutique In Dallas, TX. This was such an exciting moment for me to be able to bring my clients and future clients a space that is warm and welcoming, a place you can come relax and unwind and all the attention is on you. I researched to bring the best in facials and even worked with a Dallas based company to private label my own skincare line. I wanted a line that was chemical free but had all the active ingredients to give you the best results. My line is Vegan, Paraben & Sulfate free giving you clean ingredients that are result-driven. My journey getting to this point has not been easy but I am blessed beyond measure for the amazing family I have supporting me every step and pushing me to be better. I will continue to keep learning and working hard to build this business I love so much so that you as clients can have the absolute best experience when you come to Blush N Beauty Spa.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
My journey becoming a business owner is something I have dreamed about for years! I am a mother of two amazing little boys and it always seemed like I needed to wait but sometimes we have to do what is best for ourselves. Something that many times does not happen for young entrepreneurs. I hope I can be an inspiration to other young women out there who think pursuing there dream is far from this moment. At 31 years old I feel I have accomplished so much but it came with hard work and dedication and believing in myself. Don’t ever give up on your dreams, when you really want something go for it, take the chance you will never regret it!
Please tell us about Blush N Beauty Spa.
Blush N Beauty Spa is a place I designed for men and women to come and feel their best. I aspire that from the moment you walk into the door you feel welcomed and relaxed and leave feeling your absolute best. I offer a variety of facial services from Customized Facials, Galvanic, Microcurrent, Microdermabrasion, Oxygen & Dermaplane. I also offer Full Body Waxing, Lash Lifts and Tinting services.
The one treatment that really stands me apart from other Esthetician’s is Plasma Fibroblast Skin Tightening. It uses plasma to shrink the skin and tighten anywhere on the body giving surgery like results without the downtime. An amazing treatment for those not wanting to go under the knife. As the owner of Blush N Beauty Spa, I am most proud of the service I provide to everyone who comes through my door. I am honored to have the most loyal clients who have helped build my business so therefore I am able to continue to bring the best in skincare.
If you had to go back in time and start over, would you have done anything differently?
I honestly would not trade the path that I have been given over these past years. I believe everything is a lesson learned and we grow and become better because of the struggles and all the “no’s” we have heard. Being successful doesn’t come easy and it’s an accomplishment to say “hey, I worked extremely hard for this moment”. I don’t believe I would be the esthetician and business owner I am today had I not taken the path I have. I hope to be an inspiration to other young women and men, don’t give up when it gets hard if you truly are passionate about your business keep working hard your time is coming.
