Takeydia Smith

Takeydia began her lash journey in 2014 after discovering her love for helping women feel more confident and beautiful. What started as curiosity quickly grew into a true passion for artistry, precision, and the transformation that lashes bring.

Dedicated to continuous growth, she has spent years perfecting her craft through advanced education, mastering the latest techniques while always prioritising healthy lash practices. As her skills and clientele grew, she realised her real passion was not only in lashing but also in guiding and mentoring others who wanted to join the industry.

This inspired her to establish Beauty by Tee University in Miami, FL — a space where aspiring lash artists can build a strong foundation in classic lashing, grow their confidence, and receive ongoing support long after class ends. Her goal is to provide the mentorship and community she wished she had when she first started.

Takeydia’s training style is rooted in patience, encouragement, and hands-on learning. She creates a welcoming, judgment-free environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and building their skills with confidence. Her focus on lash health, precise technique, and attention to detail ensures every student leaves not only with technical knowledge, but also the support they need to succeed in the lash industry.
