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

Hi LaShonda, putting aside the decision to work for yourself, what other decisions were critical to your success?
The single most important decision that I made that contributed to my success was to remain true to what I wanted to offer the world regardless of the things that were going on around me.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?

As a stylist, beauty educator, platform artist, and wig designer, I bring a multifaceted approach to my artwork. By combining my background in the beauty industry with my artistic sensibilities, I am able to create pieces that are not only visually striking but also deeply meaningful.

What sets me apart from others is my ability to seamlessly blend my skills as a stylist and educator with my passion for visual art. Whether I’m designing a custom wig or creating new looks behind the chair, I always strive to infuse my work with my signature artistic flair.

Getting to where I am today has certainly been a challenge, but I’ve learned that perseverance, collaboration, and a willingness to take risks are key to achieving success in any creative field. Through my experiences, I’ve gained valuable insights into the power of art to transform lives, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share that message with others through my work.

Ultimately, what I want the world to know about me and my brand is that I am a true creative trailblazer who is committed to pushing boundaries and exploring new frontiers in the beauty and art worlds. Whether I’m styling a client’s hair, teaching a new technique, or showcasing my latest artwork, I am always striving to inspire and uplift those around me with my unique perspective on beauty and self-expression.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.

If my best friend was visiting the area, I would want to show them everything that makes this place special. I would take them to some of the best restaurants and bars in town, where we could savor delicious food, artisanal cocktails, and local craft beer. We would also explore the art and culture scene by visiting museums, galleries, and attending live music shows.

For adventure and outdoor activities, I would suggest hiking or camping in nearby national parks, visiting local beaches, or exploring the city by bike. We could also take a day trip to nearby towns or cities to discover hidden gems and local favorites.

One of my personal favorite things to do is to find unique events or festivals in the area that showcase the diverse cultural offerings of the region. These could be anything from a food and wine festival to a street art fair, to a cultural heritage event.

Overall, I believe that the best way to experience a new place is to immerse oneself in the local culture, try new things, and be open to unexpected adventures.
