Meet Brandy!

Hello and welcome! I’m Brandy, a retired hairstylist and braider turned serial entrepreneur.

My journey in the beauty industry began in 2019 with the launch of Breaking Boundaries Beauty, a therapeutic hair therapy collection designed to nurture and restore hair health. After pursuing my passion at beauty school, I spent the next five years honing my skills before founding Brandy’s Braiding Bar, Chicago’s first 24-hour hair salon. In addition, I own and operate My VIP Salon Suites in Oak Park, providing luxury salon spaces for beauty professionals.

Today, I am proud to serve as a beauty business coach and mentor, guiding the next generation of beauty entrepreneurs to success.

My Love for Beauty

Growing up in Chicago, I was surrounded by strong, hardworking women who taught me the power of confidence. I quickly learned that a great hairstyle or flawless makeup look could do more than just enhance your appearance — it could change your whole vibe, boost your mood, and inspire confidence. That’s where my love for beauty came from.
Which is why I am so dedicated to providing the women of Chicago and across the country with quality and affordable hair products and services.

Mentoring the next generation of Girl Bosses!

Hey there, beautiful souls! I’m Brandy! An entrepreneur in the beauty industry. 

The Owner of Chicago’s very 1st 24 hour Hair salon. A retired beautician, and business coach based in the vibrant city of Chicago. Whether chasing your dreams behind the chair or looking to build a beauty empire, I’m here to share my journey, tips, and lessons learned on this incredible road to success. Offering you free advice on my YouTube as well as paid coaching services.

As I gained experience, I realized there was a need for mentorship in the beauty industry, especially for young women of color. Breaking into business, building your clientele, and eventually owning a salon requires more than talent — it takes strategic thinking, business skills, and the right guidance.

That’s why I’ve become so passionate about mentoring. Whether it’s through one-on-one coaching sessions, workshops, or speaking at local events, I love giving back by helping others rise. It’s incredibly rewarding to see others go from doubting themselves to becoming confident, thriving business owners.
