Today we’d like to introduce you to Kendra Villarreal.
Hi Kendra, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
Positively changing the lives, emotions, and self-esteem of women is something I’ve been blessed to do for over 16 years. Through skincare, facials, and waxing my clients look and FEEL better.
Clients who are drawn to me aren’t chasing a social ideal of beauty but rather their definition of beauty for themselves. My business looks at the body as a whole. I don’t look at just skin, we dive deeper at Kendra Renee. We speak about diet, quiet time/meditation, breathing techniques, and more.
These things help the skin GLOW from the inside out and the results impact their attitudes about themselves, which radiates to their friends and family. It’s a beautiful circle and truly changes lives.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
I have created a brand culture that calls in women who don’t chase society’s beauty standards but they choose to invest in my offerings to help them be the best versions of themselves.
I took a risk to bring these treatments to my area because no one else was offering these approaches. It is such a passion that I knew I had to do it and I believed the right clients would be called in and book a service.
Now that I’ve been open for a couple of years, clients tell me all the time that the Bryan/College Station Area has needed this approach to esthetics!
We’ve been impressed with Kendra Renee Holistic Beauty, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
In an industry fueled by the pursuit of “perfection,” I toss that thought process on its head (and kick it out the door). We are all perfectly imperfect.
I believe we are happiest when living our own standard of beauty rather than endlessly chasing society’s or social media’s definition of it.
I believe we should strive to be the best version of ourselves – the version that makes us happy. In my business, this means that skin care is more about skin health which honors the integrity of the skin and its function. It means waxing is more about feeling better, cleaner, avoiding razor burn, keeping the skin healthy, and the convenience of not having to shave.
I believe it’s important to not overlook or minimize the health needs of your skin.
I’ve been honored with the title of Best Facial & Waxing for my entire county’s resident-voted contest for 2017.
My brow work has been recognized internationally by, Arch Addicts (THE Authority on brows).
I have also been a featured expert on leading industry podcasts to spread inspiration and education among beauty professionals.
I currently hold the position of membership manager to one of the biggest online beauty success academies in the world which allows me to empower other women-led businesses every day.
Empowered women empower women!
