Beauty Within by Lil
HEY come join my journey!!! All things hair and makeup!
& we’re back 🥳
did hair last week & let’s just say, i love the curled look!
usually we do a straight look but we wanted to change things up!
swipe to see her before!
what do we think of the 3 rows of 18” plus a curled moment?!
when people say, you have changed. i take that as a compliment, i do not want to stay the person i was a year ago or even when i was younger.
we are continually growing with knowledge, perspective, awareness, etc & sometimes we don’t need to shout it from the rooftops but showcase the new leaves that are growing!
just bloom 🌾💐🌷🌹🥀🪻🪷🌺🌸🌼🌻
the blend is much more than the color!!!! 📝
got to spoil this week with a whole new set of 3 rows of 18”!
we of course seamlessly matched her color BUT texture was also in the conversation! we want her to be able to wear it & have it feel like her natural hair so making she her texture matches is also in the equation!

go back to your why…
why did you choose that major or why did you move to that area or why did choose to eat certain foods?
there is always a why behind ever decision we make… so here is my question for you!
what is your why? why do you wake everyday & choose to do the same thing over & over?
going back to my why when i feel burnt out or lost in the process, helps me to rest & realize that my why is much more than the circumstances or the weight that i am feeling in the moment!
so i encourage you to write down your why & save it on your phone or pin it to your wall so that way when the day gets cloudy you have something to reference & realize you are exactly leaving out your why!
the second slide is my why, why i chose this career, why i want to make people feel beautiful, why i choose to wake up everyday! my cosmo teacher had us a write out our whys for an assignment & i am forever grateful to her () for paving the way of reflecting on the decisions we make!
get to writing friend! your WHY MATTERS

a phrase i have been reminding myself for the past three years, it’s taken a lot to get to this point.
learning that every step of the way is pushing towards more growth & new perspectives, finding your way.
i didn’t know i would be in the spot three years ago but ready to see what growth i get from the journey i have been on since moving back to this state.
reflecting on the first time i moved here & hating it to now being in a place that i can see growing more in, choosing to step out of your comfort zone is one scary step but it’s so worth it!
do you regret that decision that was pushing you towards growth?
what 2 rows can give you, i’ll take my whiskey neat 🤎
happy easter friends 🐣💐⛪️
whether you celebrate or not i hope today you feel the joy that comes with every morning! & realize that in the midst of our circumstances there is beauty through the other side!
grateful for a job to be able to exude someone’s confidence through the art of hair! we have the ability to give someone that back with a change of color, haircut or in this case more hair!
this client is living proof that her circumstances doesn’t determine her beauty! she overcame breast cancer & now being able to offer her hair back speaks so much light & beauty!
so today might be another day but truthfully it’s a day where the darkness DID NOT win & still won’t continue to win! here’s to the light reigning forever more 🩵

let your journey be yours, you can’t show yourself if you are to busy worrying about the person next to you. be you!

it brings my joy to be able to spend time with the bride & bridesmaids on such a special day!!!!

the biggest critic is ourselves, which in turn can alter the things we choose to do!
once you push over the imperfections & stop using them as footholds, you begin to realize that through the mistakes there is mastery!
keep pushing, keep progressing, keep growing!

introducing 🫶🏽 !!!
on the third day of the evolve experience, our 1:1’s are able to take a step back & have time where they get to be spoiled with a shampoo/style & makeup!
for jessica this was easy & exciting to do especially when instantly we clicked once started talking!
i’m grateful for the many stories that turn into encouragement & uplifting moments that turn into continues cheerleading through this industry!
thank you for letting me spoil you but more importantly to be sharing the same light ☺️
hey y’all i’m back from a week off with a very good before & after 🫶🏽👀
this is what adding some ribbons of color & 3 skinny rows can do!
things don’t need to be complicated to give you the confidence you have been wanting! 😘🌶️

thank you all for the birthday wishes! 27 has already been the best & showing the best!
your potential is endless!!
who knew that 2 years ago i would be packing up my car & driving across the country to north carolina! i would embark on a journey of healing, growth new roots & soaring into a happier person!
don’t doubt that the Lord has a plan that is far better than you would imagine! & let me tell you he surprises you more than you know 😉
I shed a person i didn’t like & adapted so much growth to become a person who still has areas to work on but is much more confident, intentional, happier because of trusting the Lord & his plan!
so in those moments where your heart is telling you yes but the outside is telling you no; trust your discernment & soar!!! 🫶🏽
your potential is endless!

the best part of this job is to showcase the skill that is built with wanting to continue education & have mindset of growth!
little vulnerable post:
social media can be exhausting when it is part of your job & it can be an illusion when it comes seeing everyone’s highlights rather than lows.
right now if i’m being honest it’s hard to open this app & not be discouraged on the phase i’m at or where i would want to be; working towards something that has been longer to get to.
i don’t want to promote a false narrative on here & i hope that through my page i promote the truth or my honest self to help at least one person along this journey!
so here is my encouragement to keep pushing towards your passions & dreams! there are going to be times or days where it’s tough & spread thin but it is all worth it because you were made for this! made for this time to showcase who you are! 🫶🏽
let’s encourage each other rather than compete or compare on here! being intentional with why we are doing things & making it to our goals & dreams!
let’s talk about a natural beauty!!!
when .attheparlor told me that she wanted her skin to glow, i said let’s do it!!!!
natural, glowing skin is one of my favorite makeup looks to do because i’m getting to enhance the natural beauty that someone already exudes 🫶🏽
if you wanting your makeup done for any events or your a soon to be bride, send me a message 💫
all about the half row!
when you hear a row & a half, it’s recommended to you to makeup sure that everything is seamless with your natural!
swipe over to see why a 1/2 row might be good for you!
Hello
Hello! My name is Lily, but you can call me Lil! I am the face behind the brush! I currently have another business called Beauty within Letters. That dream of doing calligraphy was a dream that came about 4 years ago but I started dreaming and fantasizing about getting to do hair and makeup for a living for a very long time. Even though this dream has been long overdue, the Lord has so graciously walked with me through it. He has given me encouragement after encouragement and especially through this season of my life. I am finally putting my passion for hair and makeup out there! I have been dipping my toe, as you can say, in this dream but now is the time to fully dive in!
I named this business Beauty Within (which I couldn’t make my actually username because someone already has it lol) because ever since I dreamt about this, I wanted to showcase what my clients already carry. Everyone is uniquely beautiful and that is what I love about the word unique. Unique means “being the only one of its kind; unlike anything else.” My dream has always been to highlight that uniqueness! It warms my heart when I see clients light up when they see what a little makeup or a hairstyle can do for them but also to see that even before the hair and makeup they are already one beautiful being. Each person is uniquely made and made in the image of our Papa. Through this page I want to showcase hair and makeup but in a way that highlights the true beauty that is within your heart and the uniqueness that you carry! 1 Samuel 16:7. I can’t wait to see where this dream takes off! Come join my journey!
