Today we’d like to introduce you to Randi Crawford.
Hi Randi, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Hair has literally always been a part of my life, it just took me a while to realize that was my passion. I started off playing in doll’s hair around the age of six. From then, I began to do my mom’s friend’s daughter’s hair. In high school, I eventually made it a business.
I attended Alabama State University for college, 2014-2018, while there, I did hair the entire time. & graduated with a chemistry major/ math minor. I would always say this was my “side hustle”, not knowing that this was my real passion.
Upon Graduation, I decided I did not want to move back to my hometown of Chicago, Illinois, but I’d rather stay somewhere in the south. That’s how I ended up in Atlanta, GA. Since moving here, it has been nothing but blessings. I started focusing more on my passion and perfecting my craft. I’ve had the opportunity to work on set with NIKE and do some styles for Toya Johnson & Dayy Bella.
I can honestly say that passion and consistency has gotten me to where I am today.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
No, the road is never smooth. Rebuilding my clientele was probably the most challenge. I did not know anyone in ATL when I moved here, so I had to just get my name and work out there. Instagram was definitely a big help.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am a Hairstylist specializing and hair weaves and braiding. I am known for my infamous stitch feed in braids.
I am most proud of my growth. What sets me aside is that I am a loyal hairstylist, I communicate with my clients all the time. I try to build relationships because I’d prefer someone to come back, not just a one time thing.
How do you define success?
Success is what YOU make it. Reaching your personal goals and pushing further after that goal is reached.
