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

Hi Taylor, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
It really wasn’t planned, it was just like my calling. I started doing hair when I was 16 and once I realized I was quitting every job just to do hair, I was like okay this has to be plan A. After that I started doing any & everything necessary to make it a legit career.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Making people feel beautiful inside and out is what my whole brand is about. I love to see the look of joy come over their face once they see their ‘Taylor’d’ Beauty. I started out only as a hairstylist & makeup artist but the more my passion for overall beauty grew, I had no choice but to elevate the skills & services I offered. The process of getting to where I’m at now was definitely not easy but it also wasn’t too hard because anything that you really want and have a passion for is never too hard & you’ll always find a way. Remember to focus on yourself while cheering for others, network & be confident in what you do, and always keep your passion the main thing in your life until you get to where you want to go.

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’m quite new to the city myself but somewhere I always find myself to relax, work, or just have a me day is either at Piedmont Park or Ponce City Market!

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 biggest shout out is to God first for giving me the strength & perseverance to keep betting on myself through all obstacles. I also appreciate my family, friends, & mentors for coming through for me even when I don’t ask. I’m deeply grateful for them all!
