Every week we put a member of this community in the spotlight because the people in this room deserve to be seen. This week we're celebrating someone who brings culture, passion, and purpose to everything she does. ❤️ Meet @Gladys Ocasio — Lasio Educator and Beauty Industry Professional based in Orlando, Florida. Born in New York City and raised in Puerto Rico, Gladys brings a vibrant blend of culture and experience to the beauty industry that is impossible to replicate. She has spent the past 8 years perfecting her craft, and more importantly, using it to empower others through education. She's not just a stylist. She's a teacher, a mentor, and a voice for the community she serves. Gladys is a proud member of the Professional Beauty Advocates (PBA) and the National Latino Cosmetology Association (NLCA), two organizations that reflect exactly the kind of professional she is: someone who shows up not just for her clients, but for the industry as a whole. She is also one of our own, a Lasio Educator who carries the frizz-free movement with her into every salon, every classroom, and every conversation. Gladys, we are so glad you are in the Inner Circle. Tell us one piece of advice that you'd give to a stylist who is just starting out. 𝘞𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘧𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘧𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘚𝘵𝘺𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘚𝘱𝘰𝘵𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵?
