Before I ever picked up a dermaplane blade or learned to layer acids like art, I was the client. I was the girl breaking out, hyperpigmented, and completely overwhelmed by advice that wasn’t made for me. I spent years wasting money on products that either did nothing—or made things worse. And every time I sat in a treatment room, I felt like I had to over-explain my skin, only to be told to “give it time.”

That experience did more than frustrate me—it lit a fire.

Because I knew what was missing.

And I knew I could build it.

So in 2018, I created Detroit Skintique—a space designed specifically for melanin-rich skin, real transformation, and the kind of care that’s rooted in education, intention, and experience. This studio isn’t about trendy facials or cookie-cutter treatment plans. It’s about strategy. It’s about listening. And it’s about results that last long after the glow wears off.

Here, I treat:

✔️ Acne that won’t go away no matter how “clean” your routine is

✔️ Hyperpigmentation that keeps coming back

✔️ Skin that’s inflamed, reactive, and just… tired

But more than that—I treat people who’ve been overlooked.

Black and Brown women who were never the target market, never the priority, never the standard.

That’s who I built this for.

And now, through The KL Method, I teach other estheticians how to do the same—how to build businesses that are rooted in skill and soul, that not only improves the appearance of skin, but helps increase confidence and improves the quality of life for many.

Detroit Skintique is more than a skincare studio. It’s the space I wish existed when I needed it most.
