Interview with Stacey Jerónimo

@mamiwaxer | Kansas City, KS | 2-Year Esthetician


Q: Tell me how you got started into Esthetics after college?

A: After changing my major multiple times and feeling lost, I decided to take a break from school to figure out what I really wanted. Seeing how passionate my husband was about his career made me want to find something that gave me that same feeling.

Esthetics was always something I’ve mentioned and considered, even during college, so after my break I finally enrolled! When we were taught how to wax in school, I was excited but SO NERVOUS to hurt someone. After I did my first Brazilian wax, something clicked and I LOVED it. It came so naturally to me and I knew that waxing was what I loved and wanted to do. Since then, I haven’t looked back and I’ve never been happier.

Now, I work for a wax brand I love and have my own waxing suite, specializing in Brazilian waxing. I’m truly living the dream I never knew I wanted and am so grateful to be where I am today!

Q: What was your passion before beauty, and what do you think your strengths are from your past experiences that you've been able to pass on?

A: Before beauty, my passion was administration. I’ve always loved staying organized, making lists, and keeping things running smoothly.

It’s helped with managing the behind-the-scenes side of my job as a virtual assistant like staying on top of projects, tasks, and all my responsibilities.

When it comes to mamiwaxer, my solo waxing business, it’s helped me keep my head above water. I know it’ll help even more in the future once I’m more settled and adjusted to all the responsibilities opening a business comes with, but for now we’re just trying to take it a day at a time!

Q: How has working behind the scenes for a wax brand expanded you as a professional?

A: I feel so lucky to be working not just for any wax brand, but for ENSO WAX 🥹 This opportunity has taught me so much about the industry and how to grow within it. I’ve learned the importance of being consistent with your brand, staying true to yourself, building genuine connections, and being transparent.

Also, it’s shown me that there are endless possibilities. It’s all about putting yourself out there, continuing to learn, and trusting in your skills and knowledge.

Q: What are unique ways you're growing your business as a new Esthetician?

A: Right now, I’m prioritizing these two things while trying to grow my business:

  1. Creating a great client experience: From the moment someone books with me, to the help and support I offer after their appointment. I want every client to feel seen, cared for, and comfortable enough to reach out if they ever have any questions or concerns.
  2. Networking: Networking. Networking. I’m building relationships with other beauty professionals and business owners both locally and in other states. I have loved creating relationships with everyone and have been loving the new friendships! For me, networking is so important, because I genuinely want to connect with and learn from other successful women I admire. I truly believe that surrounding myself with the women I aspire to be will get me there.

Q: What is your 5-year goal in this career?

A: In five years, I see myself in a similar place to now. Just more grounded, confident, and established in the industry. I’ve learned that growing at my own pace is key to building a sustainable business without burning out.

I don’t plan on working in my suite more than three days a week. Staying fully present for my clients and continuing to offer the best experience possible is my priority. I know my limit and working more than that will affect the quality of my services and also my performance in my job with Enso.

Because I plan to keep growing with Enso, I want to keep a healthy balance. Being part of a brand I truly believe in has been so fulfilling, and I’m excited to grow alongside them!
