Today we’d like to introduce you to Brianne Core.
Hi Brianne, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
I am so grateful to have this opportunity!! I got started pretty young, I started school my junior year of high school at the Lorain County JVS! I graduated from their two year program in 2012, with the exception of 6 months, I have been behind the chair ever since!
I worked for a franchise owned salon for the first 5 years of my career, I then had a baby & went independent in 2019! I worked in a booth rental environment for the first 2 years & then moved into a suite! I have been in my own suite for almost 3 years now & it’s been more than amazing! My 7 year business birthday is next month (January 2nd)!
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I think all roads worth traveling have many bumps & curves! The beginning of my career was very “cut & dry, hustle, hustle”. We were primarily a walk in salon! At the time that I left that salon I had just had my daughter, my daughters dad & I were a great team! When I decided to become an independent stylist he was a great support, when I decided that suite owning was the path I wanted to take he made sure that my space was exactly how I wanted it! We made it through the pandemic, coming out stronger than ever, business being great & then suddenly, unexpectedly my fiancé passed away… this is where the bumps come, big bumps. Moving from Westlake into a new space in Bay Village without my partner was very difficult… but with the help of my friends, family & the amazing salon community I was able to turn this new space into “home”! I finally feel like I’m really coming back into my own this past year or so!
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about your work and what you’re currently focused on?
I am primarily a hair colorist, hair extension specialist as well as a lash artist! I am most known for multi-dimensional hair color!! I love creating colors & styles that my clients can constantly transition with through different times in their life! Customizing their color based on their lifestyles & abilities! I believe what sets me apart from other stylists is the way I communicate with my clients with true transparency & relatability, but I also believe that it truly is “the better YOU feel YOU look, the better YOU feel!” If I can make my clients feel like a million bucks, I’ve done my job!
What’s next?
I’m really looking forward to honing in on my social media presence in the next year! I have officially created time in schedule to be able to focus on it! I also would love to start a podcast that would feature some of my clients & the conversations we have, but also balancing life behind the chair & being a momma!
