Meet Tenaya Wright-Falls of Slayedcosmeticsllc

Today we’d like to introduce you to Tenaya Wright-Falls. 

Hi Tenaya, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today.
My story starts here in Dallas, TX. I started doing hair when I was 14 due to being bullied for my big chop that I did in 9th grade to go natural. I was so embarrassed every day to even go to school so one day I watched YouTube and bought braiding hair and started to braid my hair it was extremely short so it was definitely a challenge, but I got it done. From that point forward I started doing my sister and mother’s hair and my business took off from there. I’m now the CEO/OWNER of Slayedbyshunta & SlayedcosmeticsLLC. Slayedbyshunta is a business that offers many braided & loc styles as well as cosmetic products/accessories. My talent and customer service sets me apart from anyone else in my field of practice. 

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back, would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
I started braiding 5+ years ago at the age of 14 was it easy? Most definitely not it was a struggle building clientele in my city, but I got it done in a great period of time. I want the world to know that my business is only going to go up and I have so much in store for 2023.
