Hi, I’m Jamie Read — a brow specialist, beauty educator, and beauty Influencer with over 10 years of hands-on industry experience.
I didn’t have an easy start. I struggled through school, failing most of my subjects due to being dyslexic. After leaving, I worked wherever I could—in a train shop, cleaning houses, and in restaurants—but deep down, I always knew I was capable of more. I had a passion for beauty and dreamed of one day turning it into a thriving business.
At 21, I enrolled at college to study the basics of beauty therapy—just enough to get my foot in the door of a local salon. From there, I worked long hours and weekends, pushing through the anxiety of working on clients and perfecting their brows. It was tough, but I was determined to grow and improve.
Eventually, I felt confident enough to go solo. I started my own mobile beauty business from scratch—with zero clients. I worked around the clock, offering appointments whenever and wherever I could. Through word of mouth, my client list grew so much that I eventually had to close my books… I couldn’t believe it!
Five years flew by. I saved enough to buy my first flat and turned the spare bedroom into my very own treatment room—something I had always dreamed of. But then the pandemic hit. Work came to a halt, and the bills still had to be paid.
That’s when my partner suggested we start a YouTube channel to share my knowledge through beauty tutorial videos for people stuck at home. We filmed simple “how-to” videos—and, to my surprise, the channel took off!
Within two years, we had earned our first YouTube plaque for reaching 100,000 subscribers. I began receiving countless messages from viewers saying they had learned more from my videos than they had in beauty school… That meant the world to me.
Thanks to the success of our YouTube channel, we were able to save up and move into a new house—this time, with a dream garden studio in mind. We spent months building the perfect beauty cabin from the ground up.
From there, I reduced my 9–5 beauty hours and focused more on creating YouTube content, where I had the opportunity to work with some of the biggest brands in the beauty industry, such as HD Brows, Elleebana, Image Skincare, Caudalie and many more.
As my following grew to over 260,000 subscribers worldwide, more and more people began asking if I offered online brow training courses. That’s when I knew it was time for my next chapter.
Now, I run my own online masterclasses, packed with everything I’ve learned over the last ten years—techniques, tips, confidence-building, and the kind of real-world beauty knowledge I wish I’d had when I started.
My goal is simple: To help others believe in themselves and master the art of brows and business—just like I did.
