While pursuing a double major in bioinformatics and medical physics, Joli Love needed to find a way to provide for my daughter and I. Having a full time job, while going to school full time wasn’t something that worked for me, so I needed to find a source of income that would work with my 16 credit school schedule. I’ve always wanted to start an online boutique, but didn’t know where to start. After months of doing research, I was able to find the perfect vendors for hair extensions, eyelashes, apparel, and the information I needed to make sure my business succeeds and looks the way I need it to. Finally, after I got all the resources I needed I was able to start Crowned Boutique.

People are most comfortable when they have someone to relate to.
