Kenydi Nicole is a licensed esthetician, master lash technician, educator, and entrepreneur based in Houston, Texas. She has always had a passion for helping others and the beauty industry—a passion that fuels every aspect of her work. After relocating to Houston, Kenydi faced the challenge of rebuilding her career and business from the ground up.

Through personalized education, Kenydi breaks down advanced lash styling, strategic branding, and luxury client care into digestible, practical steps. She not only helps artists become more skilled, but also more confident and intentional in how they run their business.
