My Story
-
After miscarrying, multiple doctors convinced my mom I was yet another angel baby, and they were right; my twin went back to heaven and I reached the earth side.
-
1994 - My brother was born, and my mom began construction for Dare II B Diff’rent Beauty Salon in our hometown of Pompano Beach, FL
-
1996 - From an angel, to the womb; thank you to my parents, Marc & Kayle
-
1997 - ‘Imani’ meaning faith. The legacy continues; up until this very month, my mom ran her full service salon, as the CEO and head stylist; birthing me, the beauty shop baby
-
2001 - By the tender age of 4, I earned the heart of every client, they were always most astonished to see little me sitting up straight getting my hair done
-
*Core Memory - Around the age of 6, I got a core memory ass whooping (at the salon) for arching my eyebrows... my brother told on me
-
2004 - Im only 7, but my itty bitty fingers stayed painted with whatever designs my aunt was in the mood for
-
*Core Memory - My mom purchases and builds ‘Tranquility Day Spa’ from ground up. Around this time I began doing families nails and toes for money
-
2007 - BIG 10! I began to love my middle name ‘Viná’, obsessed with mirrors, I knew I was someone
-
2009 - 7th grade dance was the last time anyone else did my makeup, and I finally got my eyebrows arched. They should have never did that.
-
2011 - By 14, I am my hairstylist. I was only allowed black for color and I couldn't chop. Everyone gifted me hair and makeup products, we’re all invested.
-
2012 - 10th & 11th grade catapulted my mind into my future. I hand drew my logo, had it graphic designed by my classmate, and began taking appointments!
-
2014 - College is approaching, I am booked for homecoming and prom season while maintaining a 3.7GPA at Pompano Beach High.

2016 - “the girl who does hair from Florida” 1.5 years at Alabama State, I became THE hairstylist. Most college girls chose leave out sew in, I came to college in 14’ with a custom made closure wig dyed honey blonde ombré dark roots…. And a bag full of more wigs. I did my makeup more than often, and heels stayed on my feet with the acrylic big toe, IYKYK.

2018 - Rich off hair at 21, so I thought. Took Cliffvmr & Arrogant Tae lace classes. I saw the numbers, I thought it all added up. My bare hands had made me more than 23K in just appt bookings in 7 months. Montgomery, Alabama did that!

2022 - Quickly realizing I should have never left AL, and starting over was my only option, I returned my 2nd Lexus to the dealer and learned to save. I thought at 25 I'd be married and rich, LOL.

2024 - Discipline, consistency, prayer, and patience. 4 long years of stress, depression, and spiritual attacks, 2024 allowed me to breathe
-
2025 - Full of gratitude, walking by faith, trusting God. Welcome to my millionaire year, are you ready
