We had the good fortune of connecting with Talour Maher and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Talour, what is the most important factor behind your success?
The important factor is that I have a true passion for my brand I pay attention to every detail when it comes to working with a client, the work I create and how I promote myself. When you love what you do the success will follow.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I am a licensed esthetician and a lash technician. I offer a large variety of services; lash extensions, lash lift and tint, all body waxing, brow lamination, brow tinting, dermaplane and facials. What sets me apart from others would be my true passion with the beauty industry. When a beauty provider has passion for what they does the work they create speaks that. What I am most proud of is how far I’ve came in my career today. I’ve only been in the industry for a little over a year now and I’m seeing at least twenty-five or more clients weekly. Which I’m extremely grateful for because without my clients I wouldn’t be where I’m at today. I got to where I’m at professionally by never giving up and always finding a way to push harder. I have big dreams with my career so that really keeps me motivated to keep going. Some lessons I’ve learned along the way is to always remain humble. The situation you are in right now is only setting up the tomorrow for you. What I want the world to know about me and my brand is that everyone deserves to find the self love and confidence within themselves. Especially in the world we live in today I and my brand want you to feel comfortable and beautiful in your own skin.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If I had someone coming to visit me in Lansing I would most definitely take them to a couple restaurants. My go to places here are Cask & Co, Good Truckin Diner and Tangy Crab.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
It’s crazy because when I told people I was going to be an esthetician and lash artist they thought I was making a mistake. I was not going to make enough money or be successful in this career. The person that has really noticed my drive and passion would be Lorin Cumberbatch, she has helped me and has mentored me so much over the past year. From the business side to the services I offer Lorin has been the person to help me become the esthetician I am today!
