It was only a few short months ago Kevie only took home half of what she earned. Now in her own suite and owner of Eye Candy Lash Bar, she takes home 100% of her profit. One of our favorite quotes by Kevie shortly after she started at A Suite Salon was, “I earned more in one week than I made in one month at my previous salon.”  We love to see Kevie in action and love to watch her clients leave her studio with a new glow about them!
