Women Entrepreneurship Empowerment

Laltesh, a determined young woman from Ghissupura, Haridwar, Uttarakhand, always had a passion for beauty and cosmetics. However, financial constraints initially limited her ability to pursue her dream of becoming a beautician and entrepreneur.

Her life took a turn when she discovered a local beautician training program organized by Utkarsh Welfare Foundation. With a strong desire to change her circumstances, she enrolled in the program. Through dedication and hard work, she completed her training of 45 days, gaining expertise in hairstyling, skincare, makeup and salon management.

After receiving her certification, she decided to follow her dream of operating a beauty parlour. She opened "Pari & Misti Beauty Parlor" in her neighbourhood, initially working from a small space within her home. Her commitment to quality and personalized service quickly set her apart from others.

Laltesh’s "Pari & Misti Beauty Parlor" became a symbol of empowerment in her community. Clients left not only looking beautiful but feeling confident and inspired.

Laltesh’s journey from a beautician trainee to a thriving beauty entrepreneur is a remarkable tale of empowerment. She says, “My success story not only transformed my life but also uplifted my entire community. My determination, skill development and commitment to helping others achieve my dreams made me a beacon of hope and inspiration for those around me”.
