Damone Roberts New York has officially
been open for 1 year now!

I write these words surrounded by surrealism that we actually did it. The saying that if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere has never been more accurate.

I want to personally thank Armond Hambrick for carrying on the tradition of perfectly framed brows and flawless make up applications to our East Coast clients. He has proven to be very dedicated and dependable.

Marilyn Brown, for showing again and again how to run and manage things all with the taste and elegance of a Supreme Being, and Ramon Leon for creating such a spiritually satisfying space that pleases the eyes as you escape the hustle and bustle of 5th Avenue.

Lastly, I want to thank you for your continued support in helping to keep my dreams alive.

No man is an Island!

Diva's Corner - Armond Hambrick

“The City”

A whole year has passed since I moved to “The City” and it has been quite the experience. I was so excited about moving to NYC. I saved all my money and told all my friends and family. Everyone was so excited for me to spread my wings and experience life. The day finally came when I moved to the big apple to help open Damone Roberts New York. I knew only a few people like Michelle Rigg (Make-Up Artist), Caroline Rice (Actress) and Gregory Alan (Hairstylist) who all took me under their wings and showed me how to get around and where things are in “The City”.

I wasn’t afraid of not really knowing anyone here because I love meeting new people. I’ve learned how to really market and promote myself and make connections. The saying “A closed mouth doesn’t get fed” is very true! You have to make it happen here in New York.

Since being here, I’ve also had the pleasure to do the stunning Beyonce’s brows for her big wedding day. She truly is a wonderful person to talk to, learn from and be around. I also had the opportunity to do her brows for her latest album “I am Sasha Fierce” and to be on the set of her hit video “If I were a Boy”.

Learning how to get around “The City” is where my good friend Gregory Alan showed me the ropes. Through him I went to my first industry party for VS Magazine, did my first editorial and worked Fashion Week. He always encourages and pushes me to be the best.
He is the type of friend that everyone should have when moving somewhere new. Thank you Gregory Alan for being such a great friend!

I’m so thankful to still be here. I am learning so much and many people have encouraged me to stay focused. It’s difficult to find the words to express how appreciative I am to friends and clients who have come so far to see me or to have their brows and makeup done. I believe that you attract what you are; when you’re a good person you attract good people. If I had to choose a word to describe my whole experience I would say, Grateful.

To anyone who’s ever been afraid to make a major move for work, school or a relationship; don’t be scared! It could be the best move you’ll ever make. I’m not saying it’s easy but it gets easier and smoother everyday.

Thank you,
Armond

Quote of the Month

When you get to the end of all the light you know and it’s time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen. Either you will be given something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly.
