Meet Charde Taylor | Licensed Cosmetologist

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

Hi Charde, the decisions we make often shape our story in profound ways. What was one of the most difficult decisions you’ve had to make?
Letting go of the people and the things I was so used too and most comfortable with. I wanted to be different that what I surrounded myself with but was the “normal” for me. So if it didn’t serve my growth of my dreams and the life I wanted I cut it out.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Some Artist Are Good At One Specific craft, but me I do it all, from nails hair makeup lashes waxes locs coloring I even have clients who hair I regrow from heat damage or over processed etc. I’m Mostly Excited About Having My Own Suite At Creative edge In Bedford, Texas. I wanted to branch out and reach more than just African American clientele I really wanna be global and doing everything I can to reach my goal. Professionally Ogle Beauty School Really Help Me Gain A more business outlook on my craft knowing how to market and advertise my work also being able to proper operate a business as well, now there was days I wanted to give up because it became very difficult to go so hard and then had to go home and go even harder being a mom so my child didn’t feel left out, but I stuck it out and that’s ultimately what I want not only women but people in general to know and understand if god will bring you too it he will bring you through. You have to have faith in you and believe that your hard work will one day pay off.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I love breakfast especially my breakfast because it’s made with love, second would be a nice afternoon at king spa my absolute favorite place to relax get a massage, enjoy the pool, eat and have a few drinks. I also like silver dollar winery, but mostly I’m a in the house girl so I invite my friends over for vision board parties, game nights, goal check month, and we take the kids on outings since my circle is really a mom circle.

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 late sister. before she passed we were supposed to go into the hair industry together, she taught me everything she was learning in school at home until I was a junior in high school and was able to attend cosmetology school part time. Doing hair with her made me fall lor in love with hair than I was before.
