Any other business / spa related videos yal would like to see? Drop em under this comment
I'm a sophomore in college so honestly in just starting my adult life but I am really thinking about going to school to become an esthetician and later opening a business. These videos are very enlightening and informational so thank you :)
PPP loans and take on it , I want one but not sure if it’s a good 💡
Hi, I am an RN looking to open a medical spa, I would like to know if I need a collaboration from MD, I called Ahca several times and I asked what type of license I need and they routed me to their website but I couldn't find any option for medical spa, can you please help me
how much did school cost?
Handling your books, taxes
I have my own home based business (body butter, scrubs, skincare & hair care) but I decided to go for esthetician. It’s a great way to boost my sales and sell my clients their own personalized skin care. I start school in February (thanks to COVID lol) but I cannot wait 💕
Congrats! God bless and increase your life.
I hope school is going well! ❤️
omg i've researched over this whole youtube platform for a medical spa owner in the state of florida . i'm a RN as well and i'm in FNP school and my ultimate goal is to be a medical spa owner but something is telling me to go for it right now . something is telling me to get in this world of business and do what I have the legal rights to do as RN and when i get my FNP then i can up the services if i want to . you've given so many valuable points but i would really love to speak more about things because you're in florida . CONGRATS CONGRATS CONGRATS on your business i love to see black people win !! this video came to me from God i just know it .
Thank you so much for the support and your comment, my IG dm is open if you want to contact via social media if not my email is lialeigh4@gmail.com
@@LiaLeigh FOLLOW YOUR GUT!!!! JUST DO IT! If it doesn't work out (which it will), you can ALWAYS go back into nursing for a while until you figure out another way to findable your way inside and give 200%!!!
I am also a nurse and in FNP school wanting to start a spa in Maryland... Let's just go for it!
@C S hahahahahaha
@C S 😂😂😂
$7500 ?! That’s awesome !!!
Ikr? I thought she made a mistake and meant to say $75,000.
Man I'm so proud of you. One thing I hate in Florida. People don't like to EDUCATE you or even to see another woman grow. I want to open my own spa one day in Jesus name.
Amen
I’m in Florida if you wanna connect I’m trying to do the same we can share information
@@talkswithtara8431 hey me too! I am about to start from cero
Agree! Everything is a secret. Im researching how to go about starting my shop. Im in FL and dont have any luck connecting with ppl.
If this isn’t the truth right here ! It’s so sad especially our own people . I’m like , it’s enough money for everyone . Why would you want to leave others behind ! Someone gave you a chance why not share it with others😞😡
this was so helpful. finally someone giving real info thank ya!
Congratulations!! I also just started mine 2 weeks ago but am renting inside a hair salon, I would say Im trying to not go over board with decorating right now lol
Congrats ❤️❤️
Thank you for this!! I love your business and spa related videos! Can you do a video on equipment and things you bought to set your studio up?? 💓
I just uploaded a tour of my spa with all of my equipment and decorations
And congrats 🎉🍾🎊 sis!! Yes black girl magic!!
thank you!
So glad I finally picked a video from someone from Florida thank you 😊
No problem 😊
So proud of you!!! I’ve been following you from the beginning & soooo happy for you!
thank you so much!!!
I got a body contouring license and still don't know what to do in this state literally nobody has information about Florida girl... thank you for posting this!
Even though I'll be opening a spa in MD this video was extremely helpful. Thank you!
Congrats to you and I'm so happy I was able to help in any way
What area? I’m from Pasadena Maryland, between Baltimore and Annapolis.
i am so happy i found your channel. i’m 3 videos in and i’m in love already lol you have such a great personality! i just started looking into esty school and i plan on opening my own spa in due time so you’re definitely my new inspo. congratulations to you and i wish you ALL the best! ❤️
Thank you so much!!
Everytime I watch your videos I wanna change my background! Super cute!

Thank you for sharing!!! You are right there are no videos about the Florida process. I’ve been struggling to understand where to start so this has really been a blessing to help
Glad it was helpful!
Congratulations my princess on your business, you are blessed.
I’m in esthetics school right now at tricoci university of beauty culture. Thank you for the advice
Claiming this energy, congrats on your spa! thanks for sharing🙏
So helpful currently in school shooting for Fall 2021 thank you soooo much so helpful 💕
yasss! good luck boo you got this !
Thank you I am starting esthetician school this month and want to open a spa also in my city in Florida. And I am already thinking where do I start LOL. Thank you for the info :)
I love how you sh as re information and give out great tips. Thanks
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
I loved this! Thank you so much! Also another good point for location would be the amount of parking space for clients :)
Lia! I’m Orlando and I found this so helpful. Thank you for all your info and tips 💓 appreciate youuu!
Congrats to you and I wish you much success!!!!
Thank you so much 🤍
Thank you so much, I want to open up my own spa myself and b/c you shared your knowledge ; I know God is going to bless you and your business fr. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your video I’ve been so discouraged 😔 because of how much everything cost in Texas to get paperwork going just a LLC is $300 I was told it’s best to get my LLC first before anything so that I can get a business credit thru my bank to start my spa!! Currently I’m gonna do a at home spa to start out but lately have been feeling like u were with the paper work and getting started I feel at a stand still and I thank u for your video I know that I have to just keep trying and it’ll all come together
I'm in texas too and feel like it's sooooo expensive to get started up.
@@gabriellecalzada3941 yea girl trust me I feel you I don’t wanna get discouraged and hopefully you won’t either we got this.. but Texas seems so expensive to get started and To know it’s tuff to get funding without a LLC is tuff but I’m currently getting that out the way first then hopefully I’ll get funding for the rest!! Good luck to you💪🏽
thanks for your comment boo! It's tough at first, everything is new and foreign. I believe people do say to get the LLC first but from the looks of the paperwork in my case I didn't have my physical location yet and that information needed to be on the LLC forms (of course) so I did mine after I confirmed my spa location. I wish you the best of luck !!!
@@gabriellecalzada3941 where are you in Texas? I'm here as well. I'm in Houston and transitioning from teaching to doing this. Did nails and had a boutique before and left it alone...should never have left but coming back through the door. Also getting laser license. CONGRATULATIONS!! This young lady is GREAT!!!
@@rhondabooker7652 I'm in the rgv area, mcallen tx. I want to start up but there is alot of competition and I'm not from here so I don't know very many people. 😕 also everything here is super medical! Everyone loves their "botox" and fillers. And I'm a holistic esthetician, reiki master and herbalist so I do gua sha, plant based facial, energy healing and sugaring. There isn't a huge market here with that. So I'm scared to start up
Omg yesss $7500 is great an prolly set my budget @ like $6500 just to grab a few extra machines and a bed 😩
Thank you so much for this video. I graduated this past Dec.... Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Yess your video by far has been the best & most detailed! Thank you New subbie!
how did you build your clientele when you first started?
May God Continue to Bless everything you touch! Thanks so much for the information and of course the Inspiration! I will be next to become a Business Owner I’m gonna go ahead & claim it, and speak it into Existence 🙏🏾
You are so welcome
This is very real and upfront thank you! I’m going solo in august
thank you. I am in Naples, FL opening my new Studio Spa! so helpful!
Tanya's Healing Hands on 5th Ave.
You’re welcome thanks for watching
Thanks for the information!!!!
God Bless you!
So happy I found this video cus I'm in school to be a Paramedical esthetician and then go for my NP and open my own medspa. And I live in Florida so this was so helpful. The governor has opened up the scope of practice for certain NPs in Florida and I hope by the time i finish school they will allow medspas without supervision of a physician. I would love to maybe ask more questions if you have any social media platform please let us know 😊
Loved this video! Very informative and answered so many questions. I’m starting esthetician school in a week and the end goal is to have my own little spa however my big worry is clientele. How do you build it up? I’m worried that when the time does come to open up my own place I won’t have enough people coming in to make the profit
Wow I knew your face looked familiar. first and foremost I want to say thank you for this very informative video. my cousin did your Locs many years ago lol “Macon styles” I remember you all over her business 😍🥰. So good to see that you’re doing well and congratulations on your beautiful journey of success😇
yesss your video is so helpful just finish esthetician school so this helpful even though im in Nyc
Thank you, congratulations
Thank you son much for this! Congratulations ❤️ I’m in the process but had so many questions..I’m a massage therapist 😊
#Dope and Congrats again!! Many blessings to you 💕

Thank you!! This helped so much because I'm in the same process... literally trying to get a location cause I don't want to take clients in my home!! Thanks again. I'm about to go buy the stuff I need on your Amazon store. ❤❤

thank you
Thank you for sharing this information.
You are doing well
Nice
Thanks
Great video content I really enjoyed it. I’m also located in Florida where can I get a salon license and with this license would I be able to use this license to buy wholesale items for my salon?
First Skin Specialist License. Salon License. and to purchase wholesale you need a Sales Tax Receipt from FL Revenue . All in the video
How long did you wait to open your spa after getting your esthetician license?
What company do you use for your products?
Thank YOU!
Thank you so much for this info 😃😃
anytime boo!!
Which coun are u working from pls
@liaLeigh who is your wholesale distributor?
Hey fellow esti did you take out a business to help with start up ? I’m debating if I should
congratulations
How much does your rent run on your studio rental?
It is $261 weekly
Congratulations
Hey LiaLeigh!!!!! So i see you mentioned you use square for all transactions do you send the funds to their own account? or to your personal account?
Hi! I know you're not talking to me but open a business account. Your business funds should not mix with your personal funds. Banks usually will not provide funding when you commingle funds.
@@MrsPut2gether Thanks 😊 do like get one with my current bank? Or the account square provides
@@rissjean9207 I would advise getting your business account at a different bank than your personal account. It helps you have business discipline & leaves no room for mistakes for you or the bank between the separate accounts.
LIA- This video is not going to be to long.
Me-because I can binge watch her all day 🥴😢
LIA- Proceeds to make a 23 minute and 16 second TH-cam video.
Me:😂dawg I’m a big spoiled ass cry baby…….I got I what I wanted…I long ass video 🥰
Thank you!!!
You're welcome!
At any point before you started your business did you work under another esthetician to gain experience and clientele and if so for how long?
It my other videos, I do share I worked in a franchise spa for 9months before getting fired. I then opened my own place about 2 months later
How do you select suppliers
Research and just go with my gut
How do you get your your county and city tax receipt/ business license
Like where ?
Thank you!!!!! Your teeth are beautiful btw
thank you so much ! and you're welcome girl
Do you need a license for body contouring and wood therapy treatments here in Fl
Not really,but it will start to be regulate. Esthetician is your safest route
im in south Florida and Im trying to start a body sculpting business and I would love to connect with you for advice.
Im in Ft Lauderdale
Inventory affidavit???
Girl listen... lol
😍😍😍
Hi. I’m in Florida. Are you available for consultation 1 on 1? I would compensate your time.
you can book an appt . www.glambylialeigh.com
Literally every single nurse interested in this field wants to “own my own medical spa”. It’s going to b one on every corner. Literally. Like every single nurse that is interested in the field.
I’m in Florida too ! I’m starting my business too but I’m kinda lost I just received my license 😩😂
You got this! Congrats boo! DM me on IG
Or u just cute
Thank you for stating, " call your city hall and ask what paperwork is needed to start business." These online websites are just what you said, CONFUSING and can be discouraging. Thank you. I feel better now...sheeshhhh!!!!! Lol
Yes, exactly. Best of luck to you, small progressions everyday
Congratulations!! Opening a spa during the pandemic?! That’s what’s up!✨✨
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much @LiaLeigh👑❤️❤️I am in 100% agreement with you. It’s sad how....especially the ones of our same melanin will withhold information due to fear of your business doing better than theirs, not knowing that business success comes from personality & character. 20,000 people can have the same candy bar but consumer purchase based on creditability🤷🏽♀️ May God continue to bless you in your business🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😘
Did you rent an office space and turn it into a spa or rent out of a specific spa rental building??
Girl the growth ! I love it. Been following you since Charlotte days (Yes, that long). I’m a dancer, but I’m also an esty with my own cosmetic line. So seeing these type of videos keep me motivated. Thanks girl. Congrats on all your success 💖
Thank you so much! I miss The Queen City lol, you go girl keep grindin!
So glad I found your channel ❤️ I just started looking into school. You’re so inspirational!!
Thank you so much!!
Clicked So fast!!! Congrats GIRL!!
thanks girl!!!
❤️❤️ needed this congratulations again!
