Hi, I’m Charlena D, a licensed cosmetologist, certified esthetician, and licensed cosmetology instructor in North Carolina. I’ve been working hands-on in the beauty industry since 2002, bringing over 20 years of experience to every service I provide. While my training covers the full scope of cosmetology, my passion lies in the art of enhancing natural beauty—especially through custom eyelash extensions, precision eyebrow shaping, and advanced skincare treatments. What truly sets my work apart is my eye for structure and detail. I carefully design lashes and brows to complement each client’s individual eye shape, facial structure, and bone structure, creating results that look natural, balanced, and beautifully refined. My love for working with my hands started long before the beauty industry. I grew up in my father’s body shop, where by the age of ten I was already learning to use tools like grinders, sanders, and welders. That early experience taught me precision, craftsmanship, and pride in detailed work—skills that now translate perfectly into the beauty services I provide today. In addition to lashes and brows, I also offer microneedling using custom blends of peptides, microdermabrasion combined with chemical peel treatments, delivering visible skin renewal and that immediate glow so many clients love. For me, beauty is both technical skill and artistry—a balance of precision and creativity that helps every client feel confident, refreshed, and beautiful inside and out.
