I am a nerd, an all-around creative person, and an Esthetician/Skincare Specialist. I look forward to providing quality #skincare with equality of service to my clientele: proud #atheist, #feminist, and all-around #human-rights advocate.
#Update #Aesthetician #skincare I am in the final stretch of becoming licensed! 🖤 🤟🏻🦇🧖🏻‍♀️
Wish me luck on my final test!

I have started practicing eyelash extensions on a mannequin, and it is kind of fun. I can now see why people get into pain from doing it, ergonomics are sorely needed.

#Dark_Day today, or rather this whole week in general has been rough. First my uncle has cancer, and yesterday my cousin (raised like a brother) died. Hard to focus on much else now. #shock

People say, "just be yourself" so much. Here's the rub, if I am being myself I am depressed, and negative. "No one likes a downer!"

Victories in skincare, with many successful treatments under my belt, I am excited to start taking appointments and walk-in clients. #skincare #esthetician #futureprofessional

Someone (me) started facials this week. I did two custom back "facials" and two express facials. I passed my test out, and got 100%. So, I am stoked. Can't wait to attract more clients and try some more advanced facial processes. Go me! 😀

On the night of December 16th my cat Lulu breached the crack in the front door, only held in place by a chain. She was missing for 24 hours, during which I fought my tears and darkest thoughts. Spending the day searching and calling for her. She is safely home, I am grateful she is safe and sound.

My latest #esthetician exam was challenging, including numerous medical terms and information. I passed with an 88%, which was both a relief and a humbling experience. The stress was intense. The next chapter is Diseases and Disorders of the Skin.

Before I set off to bed, I remind myself of my accomplishments and achievements. Telling myself, I am capable. Allowing myself to make mistakes and missteps. I am grateful for my life despite adversity. #nightlymeditation #🖤myself #therapy

I took some business classes, and it came as no surprise that business as an entity laudes and caters to psychopaths, megalomaniacs, and sociopaths. Now ask yourself, why do you expect them to care about anyone else? #hard_truths #business

I've had a great night studying! I've been diving into the physiology and histology of skin, and it's super fascinating. There's much to learn in a week, but I'm enjoying it! I've got a test tomorrow, so wish me luck! 😊 #skincare #esthetician_training

Happy #Caturday, everyone! 🌟 Meet Lucretia, our adorable little superstar who seems to have a sixth sense for when the camera is on her! Isn’t she just too cute to resist? 😻 Cuddles may be on pause, but capturing her charm is totally worth it! 📸💖

Being a feminist is tough. I was told my desire to split bills with my chosen partner was wrong, after listening to women announce their desire for men to pay for everything. Yet when I said, "We should abolish the wage gap between gender and ethnicity!" They cheered. So... What? #feminism

Yesterday, my model requested to have his eyebrows waxed after his chest. He left a wonderful review. Thank you, @arachnohavoc.bsky.social, for being a friend, traveled down the road and back again. Your heart is true; you’re a pal and a confidant! #FutureProfessional #EstheticianTraining #Skincare

I had another fine day waxing my model's back. They were pleased with the results, which made me happy. The positive feedback encouraged them to rebook for another session, and I’m glad the waxing didn’t sting too much! #Future-Professional #Esthetician-Training #Skincare

I am conflicted.
On one hand, I have lost weight.
On the other hand, I have become anemic, malnourished, and none of my clothes fit.

I have had my first two clients/models for my waxing services, and I can reasonably state that they were very happy with the results. I am looking forward to serving a more diverse clientele. #EstheticianTraining #FutureProfessional
