Hi Janna, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
Hi, my name is Janna and I’m a cosmetologist of 11yrs & YouTuber of 3yrs. I moved from Arkansas to Houston on hope and dreams to start my passion for hair full time. It’s not always easy but I make a way. Now, 3yrs later, I do hair part time wish it was full time but it’s hard and loving my YouTube Righteous & Ratchet. I love making people laugh!

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?
Definitely not easy getting clientele because you’re new to the area. Sometimes I get discouraged but I tell myself all the time, “You have goals to achieve get up & keep trying.”
