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

Hi Demarkus, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
When I began barber school the only thought I had was to be able to spend time with my soon to be born son. Through him being born did I grow to love and really want take my barber/ grooming career far. Being able to cut professional athletes, being on the news , articles being written , and more. Because of everything that has happened ups and downs , my business has grown me other business and other streams of revenue. The end goal was to be successful no matter and take care of my now 4 year old son.

What should our readers know about your business?
DeeWrightCuts LLC, men and women’s grooming. Based on quality over the quantity , where you can get a well groomed service. The difference between with me I believe is that I get to know my clients and build a relationship with them . As well as the overall desired end look means a lot . A lot of investing into my education and learning of how to run a business, and be successful, purchasing necessary tools for growth , and most importantly implement quality services to clients/ customers.
Everything deemed a win or loss, is a lesson because you learn in both situations. My hardest falls made my biggest wins seem small but all in all it was a blessing. Never give up , never get comfortable, dream big and grind hard

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?
Atlanta breakfast club Lenox mall
Heat ATL ( shoe store )
Atlanta barber beauty club

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
The man above has always been a big part of my life. But who he has brought in my life has really been a big part of it. My big brother who was in the army he passed away while in Afghanistan around 2009-20010. After that my mom met a man and this man has been big in my life since. The definition of a man , father and so forth. Blessed beyond measure all of this has helped me become who I am.
