We had the good fortune of connecting with Ayianah (Pressure) Dugar and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ayianah (Pressure), is your business focused on helping the community? If so, how?
I stay in a small town call Covington,GA. We don’t have everything around like the city(Atlanta,Ga) do. I started selling lashes at the age of 17. I was one of the first people to actually start / sell them at my age. I’m 23 years old at the moment & people still relay on me to have lashes for either an important event or self care. I also have another business where I sell hookahs. I’m literally the only person in Covington,Ga who sell hookahs. People relay on me to have the hottest product with the best prices.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
At the age of 17,(2016) I started selling/Applying lashes. It’s 2022 and I now apply lashes, maintain Loc’s (retwist,style,detox)etc ,sell hookahs and I’m working on a beauty line for woman such as Yoni bars,Yoni oils & Yoni pearls & healthy products for the vagina.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I love sudos! Sudos is located in Conyers,Ga on salem rd. Great hookahs,great food! I know a lot of people there & their customer service is great. I also would take them to my job Grand Anse. I’m a bottle girl/server & I truly love my job,I wouldn’t change it for the world. Everything “fun” is really in the city(Atlanta,Ga) lol it’s so many thing to do & enjoy,

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My mother (Altonia) deserve all the love & support from me. She made me start working for her at the age of 10 years old. She always had woman in powerment events & had me setting up, passing out cupcakes & talking great about me & woman. At the age of 17, she bought my first set of products & bought my first class so I can get the right documentation to sell/apply lashes. Every event she had, she made sure she put me on the clock some how to make money to make a name for myself in the streets. Follow her business page @_beesIntheTrap
