Kim Tran · esthetician, educator, founder
I built my practice on a single conviction: skin work should be intentional.
Whether I’m teaching one student, running a small group class, or working my hands on a client’s face, the approach stays the same: anatomy-aware, technique-driven, and rooted in the belief that touch itself is medicine.
I teach other licensed estheticians the facial massage work I have spent 1500+ hours learning. The rest of the time I am in the treatment room.
