Today we’d like to introduce you to Rickey Carter.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Rickey. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
I successfully completed barber college March 2017 within 10 months. A few months later, I had the opportunity to cut recording artist Lil Boosie. A few months later after the hurricane, I cut hair at George R. Brown convention center. It touched me being able to put smiles on the faces of those that lost everything. After that, I won an award for top ten barbers in Houston 40 under 40. I plan on opening a shop very soon.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Some of the struggles involve being a first-time entrepreneur and building the business from the ground up. It’s all a lesson at the end of the day and that is what contributes to my growth.
Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Carter Cutz – what should we know?
Plain and simple, “I don’t sell haircuts, I sell CONFIDENCE “. I pride myself on putting smiles on people’s faces.
Any shoutouts? Who else deserves credit in this story – who has played a meaningful role?
The creator, father, mother, family. Ronnie Coleman Jr., Darrell Dortch, Anthony Harrison. Steve Watson and a host of other supporters. All have mentored me and given me advice or guidance at some point on this journey.
