We LOVE our growing community and so we’re sharing your stories to introduce you to your each other. This month say hello to a member of the community, Jessica Saysell.

“I have always had a passion for all things beauty related, as a teen I would often be the one to do my friends hair and make-up. In 2014 I was researching beauty trends and I came across Microblading. After my training I set up my business, at the time I was called Microblading by Jessica and for around a year I worked from home alongside my full-time job. As a complete beginner and only attending a 2-day course, I had some major setbacks with healed brow results that were not the best and this really knocked my confidence. For a while I gave up on Microblading. Fast forward to 2018 I hated my full-time job and I realised I have this other career path that I could be doing that I would enjoy earning much more money. So, I decided to start from scratch again. I attended a brow shape and tint course and practised my microblading and I finally became confident. I started working at a salon two days a week to build my clients and continued to add treatments. I mainly did Microblading and Ombre brows. I relaunched myself as Jessica Saysell Aesthetics. In early 2019 I attended college and was doing my L3 in Beauty Therapy. I will never forget that part of this course we had to write a business plan of where we saw ourselves in five time. My plan was to open my own salon and to be a trainer. I had a built a large client base and I decided it was time to spread my wings and open my own salon… House of Allure Aesthetics and Beauty was born. This was such a beautiful salon in the city centre and I had girls who worked alongside me and we offered all things beauty. I started studying to become a trainer and whilst doing so I worked at three different training academies across the UK which was such a great experience.

Sadly Covid hit in 2020 and this had a massive impact on me as I had only been open for eight months before having to close. In 2021 I decided to close the salon after investing so much money and my dreams were shattered. During lockdown I became pregnant with my second son and he was born in January 2021. During this time myself and a good friend of mine who is also in the industry, joined forces and opened our own training academy…The Academy of Aesthetics and Beauty. I built a studio in my house and it was the best decision. I’ve worked in a salon, I’ve owned a salon and honestly working from home has never made me happier. It’s bizarre, as years ago it was something I said I would never do.

Behind all of this and my journey to I am now I am a mother of 2 boys; Tommy 10 and Tristan 15 months old. I have done so much over the past years and had many set backs but this made me just want to learn more. I have spent so many hours on learning and developing my skills and I now have a successful training academy where I get to share my knowledge with students and teach them my skills. I am very lucky to be an Ambassador for Lash Factor and I also work with Mrs.Higbrow and Dyotics teaching brand related courses for them in the UK. I always support fellow business owners and any newcomers to the industry. I am lucky to have the knowledge I do for all the years of experience I now have. I have some more plans that I want to do that are currently on my dream board but for now I am currently enjoying working from home and spending time with my family.”
