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

Hi Shaunice, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
One day while I was in cosmetology school, we went over the different essential oils and their properties. So I came up with the idea to put all my knowledge and training into my products to help people with their hair, skin and nails.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Right now I’m a full-time assistant director at my family owned business which is learning center, I also work on my Skincare business as well as YouTube (Lovee Sammi) My aspiration is to one day open up a storefront boutique.
Working full-time and having two other businesses is not easy but I love the support and love that I get from my family and community, that’s what keeps me motivated.
Some lessons I’ve learned along the way is don’t take things personal, it is a business so you have to learn how to separate the two from each other.
What I would love for the world to know about my business is my mission statement, to create all natural hair, skin & nail products that will inspire people to feel comfortable & beautiful in their own skin despite of skin color, hair/skin conditions, hair texture, or gender.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Atlanta is full of opportunities and things to do, so if a best friend was visiting for a week I would recommend would recommend going to Skyview in downtown Atlanta, I would also recommend going to Ponce DeLeon to eat/drink and shop.
