New York, NY – For the past four years, Lisa Carr, an award-winning on-demand master hair stylist and her Glam Nation team of seriously great makeup artists have been “glamming” up New York. Lisa is known as the hair whisperer. “What makes us different is that we provide on demand hair and makeup services in New York (Manhattan).”
Lisa has developed and trademarked an all-natural botanical hair and skin serum designed to treat eczema and skin flare-ups. It was also created to nourish your scalp, reduce itchiness, and stimulate growth.
Lisa is the owner of Glam Nation, born in Jamaica but raised in New York. Lisa is what we like to call a Local Biz Hero, a self-made entrepreneur who brings true value to her community. High stands of professionalism and strong work ethics of small business owners like Lisa are the infrastructure of the New York economy.
Lisa supports the local business ecosystem and the community as Glam Nation is a Breast Cancer Prevention partner and a proud Campaign for Safe Cosmetics organization member.
We sat down with Lisa for a quick interview.
Why do you do what you do?
“I was working in corporate America and tired of working behind a desk. So, I decided to learn the profession of hair stylist, and the rest is, as they say, history.”
How did you get into this profession?
“I got into this profession because I wanted to be mobile and wanted to express my artistic side. I have never looked back. My passion for all things hair dictates that I stay current on the latest and greatest in the industry. I am a licensed cosmetology educator, a hair-loss prevention specialist, a certified Integrative Nutrition and Naturopathic Health coach, a state board proctor for cosmetology, and a certified ear-piercing expert for STUDEX.”
What is your greatest achievement in life?
“My greatest achievement in life is being a mom. “
If you could share one tip with the readers for choosing a hair stylist, what would it be?
“Please ensure that any person you choose to be your hairstylist is licensed in your state. “
For those looking for a professional hair stylist, Lisa, and the Glam Nation team should be your first choice. Call Lisa at 347-690-2137 or visit www.glamnation.nyc – Seriously Great Hair Stylist!
