Raynea Payne is a graduate at Louisiana State University, with a bachelor’s degree in Marketing with a minor in entrepreneurship. Most of my life I have been in the service industry. Cosmetology has been my field of choice for 23 years, and I have learned some interesting things. For one, working with the community and servicing a business is a hard task, but learning the skill to communicate with others to service them properly. Being taught that people are not the same, so I must learn how to help people on their level. Investing in different products was a winner for me. My specialty is healthy, color and relaxed hair. I will be able to take the things I learned and advance my skills and knowledge to further my business. My hobbies are hanging out with friends and traveling and movies.
