Описание: Ready to hear how a single yes can change a career, a city, and a community? We sit down with Kristal King of Glamour Beauty and Brows to trace her path from a corporate role in D.C. to becoming a microblading pioneer in Stafford and Fredericksburg. She breaks down what microblading really is—custom, hand-drawn hairstrokes tailored to your face and skin—and why it remains the foundation of permanent makeup even as trends like powder brows surge.

Kristal shares the early days of educating curious locals, the leap to earn her permanent cosmetic type 2 license, and the moment a small studio dream became Glam Room Salon Suites. Starting with five suites and growing to eighteen fully occupied units with a waitlist, she built a one-stop beauty destination that houses hairstylists, lash techs, nail artists, tattoo artists, PMU artists, aestheticians, and photographers. We talk about how collaboration over competition fuels referrals, raises standards, and strengthens the local beauty economy.

Education is now a core pillar of her mission. Kristal founded a DPOR-approved, 200-hour permanent cosmetic tattooing school in Virginia teaching microblading, shading, eyeliner, and lips, guiding students toward the Virginia State Board exam with a current 100% pass rate. She opens up about practical leadership—mentoring others, serving on boards, honoring commitments—and the mindset shifts that come with public speaking and community service. If you’re curious about microblading benefits, exploring a PMU career, or wondering how to scale a service business into an ecosystem, this conversation delivers clear steps and candid insights.
