Whiplashed by Siloam: IG: @whiplashedbysiloam – Lash Technician
My greatest inspiration is my mother. She was a business owner for 21 years having a daycare center. Many people don't know that I am the youngest of 9 and to watch my mother build her own, while making 6 figures doing it is all the motivation that I needed.
