Tia is the mastermind behind Rooted River Essentials, an organic handmade product company based in Maryland.  Tia, a fellow pediatric nurse (who I hired as a new grad nurse) and mother of 5 (yes, 5) recently started Rooted River Essentials which includes a line of soaps, body scrubs, body butters, candles and face products.  If it's made by a nurse, you can trust it. Lol.  I ordered the coffee body scrub and can't wait to try it!  You can check out her products www.rootedriveressentials.com or IG @rooted.river.essentials 

The multi-faceted, super talented Ms. Porter.  Tinea is an amazing hair stylist and designer that embodies her own eclectic style, which is one of the reasons I love her!  Tinea is owner of the Green Room salon.  She is one of the few people I allow to cut and color my hair.  A cute cut, highlights, color...she got you. Tinea is also a part of The Fun Aunties, a podcast hosted on Clubhouse, Mondays @ 9pm. Tinea never ceases to amaze me with her creativity and ability to be dynamic.  To book appointments, visit www.vagaro.com/tgrbeauty.  Be sure to follow her on IG @msporterdidit @thegreenroom_tgrbeauty @funauntiespod.

Owner of PRMP Beauty and Brow Zhuzh, a dope Esthetician and Entrepreneur, Nicole Alexis is one of my favorite people.  She comes off as sweet and reserved (which she is) but don't be fooled, she is a boss.  I literally watched her quit her job in corporate America and become a full-time Esthetician and Entrepreneur.  A few years ago, Nicole opened PRMP Beauty, a trendy brow and body wax studio located at 7600 Georgia Ave NW, WDC.  

​She is also a new mother, but that hasn't slowed her down one bit, she continues to be innovative and expand her brand.  She most recently launched Brow Zhuzh, a growth serum that promotes growth of natural eyebrows.  If you need to get your brows together, check out www.prmpbeautystudio.com and www.browzhuzhbeauty.com.  You can also check out her brands on IG @lovenicolealexis, @prmpbeauty and @browzhuzh.
