Hello!
My name is Candace. :)
Thank you so much for taking the time to get to know me!
I hope that this virtual introduction of myself helps you to feel more comfortable and confident in choosing me to be your lash technician. :)
Who even is this girl?
Well, some background about me, I was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah. I have lived in California (29 Palms) as a military spouse, and I moved to Fayetteville, North Carolina in October 2021! I am 31 years old.
I am a Licensed Cosmetologist. I graduated from Paul Mitchell the School. I have been a Lash Extension Professional for 3 and 1/2 years.
I love to workout at Burn Boot Camp. I enjoy going on walks with my dogs. I am a German Shepherd fur-mama. I love studying my Bible, watching movies, going to Hobby Lobby, going line dancing and playing card games. I love sitting out at breweries that have live music. I LOVE COFFE. I think I love the ambiance that coffee brings to wherever you’re at, more than the actual coffee! I am always up for eating Mexican food and having a good margarita! I am quite extroverted and I enjoy participating in group activities with my friends like movie nights, paint nights, going out to the lake, or anything really!
I absolutely love doing life with my husband!
He is my best friend! We have been together for 8 years and married for 4 years. He has truly helped me to become the woman that I am today. We met in Twentynine Palms, California. He was a gift from God when I met him.
Neither he or I are perfect.
We both come from prior marriages and have experienced a sense of brokenness, embarrassment, and shame that you feel leading up to and after a divorce. In our pasts, we have both experienced things like abortion and adultery and we have so much that we can testify to how Jesus has lead us through the heart work to grow and heal from those kinds of things.
So now, together, we really enjoy helping our friends and other young couples thrive in their marriages. We are not marriage counselors or anything like that, but we do help by being vulnerable and sharing with them our past experiences in our first marriages. We share what we have learned and how we apply that growth to our marriage now.
When we first were a couple, neither one of us believed in or followed Jesus. Now, we both have a heart for the Lord and our relationship has never been better!
We both enjoy fellowshipping and growing in the Word at our church, Calvary Chapel of Fayetteville (CCFAY).
We are both deeply committed to nurturing the Faith of others, working together to disciple and encourage spiritual growth. We host home fellowships, providing a welcoming space for believers to delve into the Word together.
My husband is a Marine Corps Veteran, so I have also been a part of the military community for quite some time now, too!
I know it can be nerve racking to meet someone for the first time, so I reached out to some of my friends and asked if they could say something about my character to help you feel comfortable.

“I met Candace in California 6 years ago in 2017. We hung out one day at the gym and have been best friends ever since. Once you know her, your days will always be blessed. She’s amazing!”

“I met Candace my first day visiting New Creation church in Sandy, Utah. This also happened to be the day after my abusive marriage ended. Needless to say, I was a mess, depressed, and scared for how I was going to make it going forward and how I would even pick up the pieces of my shattered self. Candace embraced me as a true friend immediately. She shared her testimony with me and her Faith in knowing God was there for me too. That God had divine timing and to this day, I now know it to be true. I was able to lean on her friendship and her Faith in my darkness in order to get fully back into the light. I will be forever grateful.”

“I have known Candace for around 7 years now. I met her while living in Twenty-nine Palms, California, at the dog park in our Marine Corps base housing. She has become one of my dearest friends over the years. She is full of joy and her love for Jesus shines through whenever you are around her. She is also very talented and I am so proud of her for starting her own lash business. She is amazing!”

“I met Candace in 2015 and we've been close friends ever since. Very, very few people I've ever met have Candace's ability to care for others and see the good in those around her; she is a vibrant, optimistic person who never ceases to mystify me with her wisdom and kindness. Candace and her husband Cory have both been true guides in my life - inviting me into their home when I needed help, always offering advice, love, and entertainment - and I am so grateful for the both of them. You could not be in better hands!”
Amy- Phoenix, AZ
“I have known Candace for 7 years now. We met while working at Starbucks in Twentynine Palms, CA and have been best friends since! Candace has the biggest heart of anyone I know, she’ll care more about you than herself and is the perfect person I know for this business! You’re in great hands!”

“I met Candace in 29 Palms California back in 2017. Since then, I have been able to get to know her, her heart, and her passions. She is one of the kindest, most gentle-hearted women I have ever met! Her Grace and Faith in God is truly inspiring and humbling. Every time we get together, whether it be in Cali, Utah, and now NC, I am filled with her love and light! I am truly blessed by her friendship.”
Ricki- Jacksonville, NC
“Candace is a bright spirit. Ever since I met her backstage at our bodybuilding show in SLC, UT,, I knew she was best friend material. So positive and uplifting. It was only by Gods great timing we grew closer and she has been such an inspiration to me as a best friend in a time of need. She has shared her story with me, spiritual guidance and kindness that helped me refocus my heart on God in a way that transformed me through pain and towards healing in my life. I would highly recommend her services because she will put her heart and soul behind your beauty and you'll leave feeling so much better than when you came!”
Tori- Clearfield UT
“Candace and I became friends on Easter 2022. She had invited me to her churches Sunday service through a Facebook group. We have been besties ever since! When I found out that she was doing lashes, I was still in the military. I could not wait to get them done. As soon as I got out of the Army, I started getting my lashes done by her. She is the most genuine, loving, and joyful person that y0u will ever meet. She is the best!”
