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

Hi Khadijah, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
The very first thing that came to my mind when I was starting my business was the fact that my goal was to make people look and feel beautiful. If you ever growing up in a Jamaican household, you know how it is when your mom or grandma tells you that you’re getting a little weight. LOL it’s our culture but they don’t understand that it hurts. My plan was to help those people who are trying their hardest to get back to how they used to be just because I know how it feels.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
Kay’s Glam Room is a One-Stop Shop for ALL Things Beauty. Growing up in Jamaica I loved using my natural resources to make concoctions for my hair and skin. This is all from my heart!

I’ve learned that life will still hit just as hard as it did prior to owning a business. You’ll have obstacles just keep pushing!
Kay’s Glam Room is a Beauty Business ran by a Disabled Navy Veteran.
I’ve been pushing to make people feel beautiful since middle school and continue to strive for the same greatness.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
The weekend starts on Friday! Dont you agree? Friday Night:
Did you get a treatment? If so… eat 2-3 hours prior to your treatment. Your Faja will get you right for the night!
Wear an outfit pleasing to your shape.
NO LIQUOR. Your kidneys and liver are already working hard breaking doe and filtering fat.

Saturday we recover. Going out that night is optional. Light on the champagne HEAVY on the water all day.

Sunday… brunch at 13 or Juliet chill for the day as im back in the office the next day

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My shout is to my mentor my cousin Sabrina Lee the CEO of Her Way Beauty Institute. Sabrina likes to focus on the fact that, “we help women entrepreneurs start and scale their spa businesses through accredit medical training or skillset certifications”
