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”.
