Today we’d like to introduce you to Magdalena Plechan.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Magdalena. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
I am the owner/Aesthetician at Mind N Soul Spa since 2010. My journey with the beauty industry started in 2008 when for the very first time I went to get a facial, I was so fascinated for everything an Esthetician was doing, I couldn’t simply relax, but instead I kept asking her questions, “what are you putting on my face”, “what is the purpose of it?” etc. I went 2 more times to the same salon and I knew that was the THING I want to do.
I honestly loved all exams, I had in my school because I knew they would help me to understand skin and their conditions, more and in the same I would be better at providing my services and educating my clients. I go to seminars and continuing education classes to stay one step ahead with my profession.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
There are always struggles when it comes to owning a business. Like in any profession, in order to be at the top of your game you must dedicate time outside of work, to master your technique and continue to find new treatments, products, etc. to expend your business.
One of the most difficult thing for me personally, was finding a good and reliable insurance company which would provide me a good coverage/liability.
Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Mind N Soul Spa – what should we know?
My goal is to provide comfort and care to every individual while performing their treatment with perfection.
I am passionate about helping clients feel good about themselves! Combining traditional and cutting-edge methods, I give my clients the results they’re looking for, along with the skincare knowledge they need to continue their progress outside of the treatment room. When I meet with new clients, I take extra time to ensure I properly analyze their skin condition and answer all of their questions regarding service (s) they inquire about.
I specialize in Laser Hair Removal, Laser Skin Rejuvenation, European Facials, Chemical Peels, Volume Eyelash Extensions, Microneedling, Dermaplanning and Makeup.
Mind N Soul Spa motto is: “When you look good, you feel good. Take care of your body, it is your temple.”
Is there a characteristic or quality that you feel is essential to success?
I strive to be an organized perfectionist. I always listen to my clients and try to make them happy with results they strive for, whenever it is about eyelash extensions, laser hair removal and any other services I offer. I value my clients feedback and other professionals I network with.
