The Beginning of a Dream

Karen’s Designs was established in 1999 with a vision of offering an exceptional beauty experience that extends beyond the exterior. Beauty may begin in the eye of the beholder, yet I believe that True Beauty Begins Inside 1 Peter 3:4. My commitment has always been to offer professionalism and kindness to those around while speaking truth in love and embracing one’s unique beauty for, We are God’s Masterpiece Ephesians 2:10. My goal is to support and encourage self-confidence within the community in the search of True Beauty, untainted by vanity, insecurity, or judgement.

As owner of Karen’s Designs my career began in 1981, as I obtained my Cosmetology license while attending Aldine High School. I never expected at sixteen years old to find a lifelong
career; forty-two years later I am proud to say my love and passion for the beauty field has never faded. Throughout my career I have attended advanced training courses as well as I was
an official educator of a large company’s permanent wave training course. Being blessed with a career over four decades has given me the opportunity to see how hair styles, trends as well as
techniques have changed over time; from vintage and retro to modern and contemporary.
