Today we’d like to introduce you to Jacqueline Anne Esparza.
Jacqueline Anne, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
Since a young age, I had a passion and love for hair and beauty, I would express myself by changing my hair and looks throughout the years, I would enjoy styling my friends and family’s hair and makeup. After graduating high school, I worked part-time at my mother’s Merle Norman Cosmetic Studio in San Diego, California. My responsibilities as a beauty consultant was to knowledge clients on our products, skincare assessments, and performed makeovers. I fell in love with the process and the work in making someone look and feel even better about themselves.
This is when I realized I wanted to follow my passion and start a career in the hair and beauty field. I attended the best cosmetology trade school, Paul Mitchell in Downtown San Diego. The school helped me develop the skills that allowed me to expand my creativity through the art of hair transformation, it gave me the confidence and the right resources to turn my creativity into a career. Through my school, I was able to create beautiful hair, take in clients, participate in fashion shows, and give back to the community. I received my certification and hair license in October 2014.
I moved to Arizona in November 2014, I found a salon in Scottsdale and started building my clientele. Not knowing anyone was a challenge for me but it encouraged me to work harder and perfect my craft.
I listen and understand each and every client on my chair. I’m in a field where I transform the physical and heart of my clients. I believe that is what sets me apart and has set me up for great success. Listening and knowing what the everyday life consists of is very important because it allows me to create a look that’s accustomed just for them.
As an entrepreneur with a passion for my art, I’ve learn to become versatile to be able to accommodate my clients by traveling throughout the valley from Peoria, Phoenix, to Scottsdale. I’m also grateful for the opportunity I had to follow my dream as a self-employed artist to find my independence and the freedom to creatively express myself through my craft, marketing, and the personal touch that I bring.
I’m also thankful for the opportunity to work part-time in a Paul Mitchell Focus Salon where I have the ability to continue to learn and gain the experience within the Paul Mitchell culture as well as utilizing the there products that are vegan and cruelty-free. I am providing a wide range of services including custom cuts, colors, styling, makeup and more.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I manifested my cosmetology journey, I would say its been a smooth road thus far. I knew what I wanted and called it into my reality. I’ve learn to take constructive criticism and not to take it anything personally but rather use it as a stepping stone to help me grow in my career. Every experience I’ve had, I see as a learning opportunity to only better myself as an artist.
I’m so thankful to have great mentors and a good support system in my life which makes my journey so much more amazing!
