Today we’d like to introduce you to Monique Clemons.
Hi Monique, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
My passion for skincare started in my teen years while watching Dr. Pimple Popper videos. Something that might have seemed unusual to others, but genuinely fascinated and calmed me. That early curiosity turned into a love for understanding skin health, which led me to earn a B.S. in Health and continue my education at Ogle School of Hair, Skin & Nails. After becoming a licensed esthetician, I turned my passion into purpose and launched Balm Haus in April 2025, creating a space where skincare, healing, and confidence come together.
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’ve never heard a success story that didn’t come with its share of bumps, and the journey of building Balm Haus was no different. While growing the business, I was teaching full time and navigating unexpected life challenges that seemed to appear at every turn. Those moments tested me, but they also deepened my resilience and clarified my purpose. Each obstacle shaped the foundation of Balm Haus, reminding me that growth isn’t linear, and that perseverance, even in uncertain seasons, can lead to something truly meaningful.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Balm Haus ?

We specialize in customized facials, precision body waxing, and expertly curated brow services; all delivered in an environment that feels elevated, welcoming, and unapologetically feminine. What sets Balm Haus apart is the experience: every service is intentional, detail driven, and designed to make clients feel confident, cared for, and completely that girl when they leave. We’re known for blending skin health with luxury, creating space where self care isn’t rushed or clinical—it’s indulgent, empowering, and personal. Brand wise, I’m most proud of the atmosphere we’ve created. Balm Haus isn’t just about looking good; it’s about feeling powerful, polished, and deeply taken care of. I want readers to know that when they step into Balm Haus, they’re not just booking a service. They’re stepping into an experience that celebrates beauty, confidence, and high standards.
We’d love to hear about how you think about risk taking?
Starting a business is a risk in itself. You pour your heart into a vision, wanting it to succeed so badly that you can’t help but wonder if it will last. But real growth comes from choosing courage over fear and continuing forward even when the outcome isn’t guaranteed. At the end of the day, the risk is worth it because no matter what, you can say you showed up, you believed in yourself, and you went for it.
