Becoming a mom has been a humbling experience.

I knew that things would be different, but I think that I underestimated how hard being a mommapranuer would be. Being a mom is great and I love it. Owning my business, I've always loved that. Combining the two, I'm still figuring it out. Our situation isn't unique or special. Becoming a parent is always hard to navigate, I'm sure. Being a mom is the best thing that I have ever done. If I can do it and run a business on top of that, I will feel like a superhero. It's just figuring it out. Fellow parents, how are you doing??? How do you make it look so easy? 👀

This post is a lot of things. It's partly about my daughter, it's a lot about a pretty little botanical and it's a little bit a big thank you to someone who gave me a deep love for it.

I remember being in school for Aesthetics and my instructor was talking about rose. He said that most people think that rose is an old lady smell, maybe rightfully so as he described rose like being a warm hug from your grandma. He said it was the perfect botanical for those who were hurting he called it "heart sick". That stuck with me and it planted the seed of what would become my deep love and appreciation for rose.

Over the years I would remember during times of struggle, oh yeah, smell the roses. I did from time to time when my heart needed it. Sometimes someone on my table needed it too, they didn't know but I did and I would add petals in just where they were needed. I fell in love with those pretty little petals for so many reasons.

When we first started trying for a baby I thought it was going to be easy, got it on the first try, but it didn't work out. What followed was 16 months of what I considered mental warfare, trying to conceive. Rose was there every step of the way. Negative test, rose oil and hand over heart. Cramps after another failed try, rose and salt bath. I had rose petals on my nightstand, I journaled about roses and how I wanted a little girl, maybe I could even name her Rose. Roses were my warm hug in a way that people just can't be when you are heart sick over something you have no control over.

A year ago at this very moment I had no idea I was in my last month of struggle. There were a lot of steps to get her here but I really believe she was created from prayers and roses.

My little Mina Rose Carter.

I'll never forget how that little botanical helped heal my heart.

Take a deep breath during your next treatment with me, the plants are always there. Each with their own special gift. I will always find a way to sneak them in. Maybe I'll start sharing more about that..

Until then, make sure to take time to stop and smell the roses! 🌹

Happy New Year to you and happy 23 weeks to our sweet little girl!

I am so excited for what 2025 has to bring to our family and I pray that you and your family have a beautiful year too.

This year we will welcome our sweet girl to our family! As excited as we are, I just want to soak up every last second until she gets here.

I really appreciate all the love, support and understanding that we have recieved! It means a lot to me that our girl is so loved and that a lot of her time growing is spent in the treatment room. It has been my happy place for so long and knowing that she gets to feel the happiness I feel while working and that she hears the sounds of our laughter and the lofi beats in the background, it brings me so much joy. I cannot think of a better place to grow a baby, I know she loves it too because she dances in my belly all day at while we are at work. Thank you for being a part of that!

This is going to be a big year and I am finally ready to share, her name is Mina.

Did you know that your laundry routine can contribute to acne? Here are three products that you should be cautious of and swaps that your skin will love!

1. Scented and dyed laundry soap is filled with irritants and pore clogging ingredients. Avoid dye and fragrance in any products and when it comes to laundry switch to any scent free dye free option!

2. Fabric softener is also a nightmare for acne prone skin! Swap it out for vinegar. It works great. This is why my facial towels are so soft!

3. Dryer sheets leave a waxy film on our clothes and that film is pore clogging. We have to pull these as well. A few drops of essential oils on wool balls is a great option.

This is just a quick run down of why these products are problematic for acne prone skin. Products like those listed above often contain hormone disruptors, can cause irritation to the skin and can even cause respiratory issues. I really do think that everyone should make the swaps suggested but if you have acne, or you have a teen with acne, it is going to be crucial!

Happy Veteran's Day and thank you to all that have served.

Both of my grandpas were veterans.

My Grandpa Art served in the Korean War. My Grandma Marie would tell me that the man who left and the man that came back were not the same. He lost his whole platoon, he was the only one that came back. Most people will tell you that he was a mean bitter old man and from where they were standing they would be right. To me though, that man was my best friend. We never shared a bad moment together our bond was so strong. I know to the world he was a grump but to me I saw a hero and I will always see him that way.

My Grandpa Robert was in the Navy. I feel like he was the real life most interesting man in the world. He sailed many seas and had so many adventures. I wish that I would have taken the time to ask him about those adventures and his time in the Navy. Although him and I had grown closer in recent years I do feel like he is the one grandparent that I maybe took a little for granted and misssed out on. Not on purpose, I just thought he would be around so much longer but he passed unexpectedly earlier this year. The problem with time, right?

Two very different vertans, both so special to me. I am really proud of both of my grandpas and love them with my whole heart. Cheers to them and to all who have served!

What makes me good enough to wax you?

Let me tell you!

The short answer is that I wax myself. The long answer goes back eight years. I have always loved two things, facials and waxing. In school I did all the Brazilians that nobody wanted to do and for being a student I was pretty good!

When I left school I opened my practice right away, I never worked anywhere else. Nobody ever told me that as a tiny little jr. esthetician that I should not be switching wax. I foound a cool wax that was biodegradable and opened shop.

My Brazilian client comes in for her WEDDING DAY WAX. That is a big deal! I put the wax on but when I went to pull it off it didn't come up, it stretched. So I am standing there pulling this wax like taffy and tellling this poor girl how sorry I am. She was really cool about it, thank you Jesus! I got the wax off of her, did not charge her and sent her on her way.

I did not wax again for a very long time, I did miss it though. I made a deal with myself. I could start doing Brazilians again, as soon as I mastered doing my own. The first wax was a nightmare and I ended up cutting the wax off of me. The second one was a little better, and after that I got to the point where I was doing my own Brazilians in 10 minutes.

Making that deal with myself is the #1 best thing that I could have done for myself as a waxer. It has made me the waxer that I am today and it gave me the tools to make your wax as comfy as possible.

Want to try it out? Hop on my table, let's have some girl time well you can see what I can do.
