Founded by Taylor deDiego
Two years into running my consultancy business, I realized how much I missed having trusted peers to bounce ideas off.
I envisioned a community filled with the most entrepreneurial and experienced beauty consultants out there—the people who deeply understand both the industry and the realities of running a business.
Beauty Work Friends is that vision realized: a trusted circle and home base for the brightest, most ambitious freelancers in beauty.
