Rising Stars: Meet Alexis Fowler

Today we’d like to introduce you to Alexis Fowler. 

Hi Alexis, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstories with our readers?
Hey, y’all I’m Lex! When my 9-5 job decided that we were going back to office, I decided that I wasn’t and became an entrepreneur. I started doing nails to become the nail tech I couldn’t find, providing an affordable good quality set. I been getting my nails done since I was in elementary school and knowing the creativity that goes into each set is what sold me on being a nail technician. For my birthday last year, my boyfriend bought me all beginner nail tech must-haves (shout-out to him) and I started practicing on my family and close friends. Come to find out I was better than expected lol and that’s where SetzByLex was born. 

Alright, 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?
I haven’t been in business long since I only started taking clients last year but I will say there are always challenges when you decide to quit your job to be an entrepreneur. I struggled my first few months teaching myself time management, trying to find time for clients, nail practice, personal life, and being a mom to a 6-year-old. It’s important to always have a work-life balance since when you’re an entrepreneur you work 24/7. 

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I am a nail technician located in Fort Worth. I specialize in acrylic Nail Setz of all lengths, shapes, and designs and also acrylic press onz. I also do manicures and overlays for my natural nail ladies. I pursued a career in the beauty industry because I love women and being able to make them feel beautiful is an unexplainable feeling. Those moments during the process of doing nails when the girls start clicking their fingers together and moving their hands to show off the nails is so priceless and worth all the hard work and time that goes into the process itself. With 6 months I’ve been able to grow my brand and business and start offering new services! This is also my second published article and just starting out it’s amazing to be offered these opportunities The amount of support I receive is amazing, can’t wait to see what’s next! 

We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
Success to me is when you are genuinely happy and you watch the things you prayed for come to fruition. 

Pricing:

  • Full Setz starting at $60
  • Press-onz $75
