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

Hi Monifa, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
My name is Moe and I’m a licensed waxer and esthetician. After earning a degree in Criminal Justice from college, I made the decision to start my own business to indulge my passion for waxing and feminine intimate care. I discovered that waxing had an increasingly high demand combined with a wide open-growth potential in untapped markets so I leveraged on that and the need to empower women whilst educating them to make intimate and personal care a priority, became my core motive. I solely made the decision to launch this business because of the personal issues that I experienced and solutions given by doctors only helped me for a while, the recurring rate was so frequent that I decided to develop my own brand through herbs. During that period, I observed that many other women experienced the same issues which they weren’t so educated about and in order to deepen my skin knowledge, I decided to become an esthetician. I obtained my license in 2019 so I could be able to also enlighten women for effective empowerment and life changing solutions.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
The company’s core mission is to empower and educate women to feel bold, comfortable and confident both inside and outside. We encourage women to make better health-conscious choices concerning their intimate care by creating lasting beauty impressions that boost confidence and ensure our customers look and feel amazing. We adhere uniquely to our mission by providing excellent and memorable services through our superior and naturally derived yoni products, appropriate safety and sanitation measures, quality skincare services, great prices, and unique buying experiences. It wasn’t easy at all as business wasn’t my background and so there was much trial and error involved, but finding experts in the gray areas helped a ton!

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
We are located in West Hempstead, Long Island which is only 10-15 minutes outside of NYC. I would definitely check out NK Restaurant and Prime 39 on Long island for sure. Kokomo in Brooklyn and Peter Luger’s Steakhouse are also my favs. And that’s all I got cause as business owner with young children, I don’t get out much lol!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would love to give a shoutout to my mom and dad for providing me with my first work room, wax table, and wax pot to start this business! I’m forever indebted to them for all the provisions they made available to me!
