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

Hi Elysia, we’d love to start by asking you about lessons learned. Is there a lesson you can share with us?
The most important lesson I would say is when having a business you have to be dedicated & consistent. Learning that nothing comes over night.. and to always take risk.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I am a licensed Cosmetologist/ Instructor based in Memphis,TN. I have been in the hair industry over 15 years. I discovered my gift at the age of 7. Hair has always been my passion, from the very beginning I knew it would change my life. As years went by I got more into teaching about hair , at that very moment I knew I was destined for it all. I got my name out to the public before social media came about, so I’ve been doing this for quite some time now. I was always known for my craft. Over the years my clientele grew and it put me in a position to be a full time hairstylist. I currently specialize in weave extensions and healthy hair. The road to success has not been easy but yet so rewarding, I look forward to expanding my business in the year 2024.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
First off Art museum, Hen House Winery,Grizzly Game etc
