    152: Why it is important to know how to assist in the industry, with industry expert DeShawn Hatcher

    Do you aspire to work with celebrity clients? Beyonce? Tom Cruise?  DeShawn Hatcher has, but that’s not the best part of her career by far!  We all have to start somewhere, and a lot of people start as an assistant,  While celebrity clients may be some people's definition of ‘making it’, DeShawn Hatcher tells us the honest truth about what real success in the industry looks and feels like to her. And how both being and having an assistant impacted her own journey to success and the launch of her book! DeShawn is a colorful, straight-shooting woman who stood her ground in the industry and stayed true to herself, leading her to be very successful in her field while keeping it real. She is an accomplished professional in editorial and beauty make-up. A Celebrity Make-up Artist, educator, instructor, magazine columnist, guest speaker, and former Assistant. Her work has been featured in Elle, Vogue (MX), Redbook, Zink, Runners World (cover), Harper's Bazaar, and WWD In this episode: DeShawn sheds some light on how and why she became vocal about the lack of representation of black women's skin in the makeup industry, and how hard it was to find a shade that fitted her skin at the makeup counters. Which led to her passion for making sure she would always make the right color for her client’s skin because EVERY person deserves to be their color!  DeShawn spills the tea on how her book, Assisting Rules, was inspired by her assistant stabbing her in the back! We also learn why this book is so important for make-up assistance in the industry. A very real story of DeShawn meeting a high-profile photographer, while working as an assistant, and how approaching him for the first time led to an interaction that made her feel uneasy and think she was going to get fired at that time! Yet she still shares how she learnt so much from that interaction. Tune in and enjoy DeShawn’s entertaining yet real conversation about her experiences on the road to success. ‘I never thought I'd ever be jaded, I would hear horror stories about assistants and how they would game of thrones people and gut down and stuff, and I'm blinded (thinking) no way that would ever happen to me, and it happened to me.’ DeShawn Hatcher, E152, Hey GlowFriend Podcast.  Find DeShawn Hatcher here: https://www.deshawnlovesmakeup.com/3691580-bio Angeliques Links: Official Website: ⁠https://angeliquevelez.com/⁠ Breakups to Makeup: ⁠https://breakupstomakeup.com/⁠  To Join the Club: ⁠https://angeliquevelez.com/coming-in-clutch-club/⁠ To Join the Community:⁠ https://angeliquevelez.com/community⁠ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theangeliquetechnique/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/angeliquevelezmakeup/ Hey Glowfriend: https://www.instagram.com/heyglowfriend/
