We had the good fortune of connecting with Christina Jones and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Christina, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
Risk is Such a necessary factor in one’s life, simply because you learn to trust yourself in ways that the human eye cannot fathom. Risks build confidence within that allows one to grow into your life mission.

Risks were not always a place of comfort for me, it was a learning experience that took a lot of repetition also watching other people in my line of work such as salon owners and experienced cosmetologists helped me to build a strong character within.

Risks started to be a thing for me when I took a leap of faith leaving My Full-time job that financially supported me and my children and making my part-time cosmetologist Skills lead my Path.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
