The LAB Experience was created by Lathiana Hurd, who works as Mina Thee Stylist, a stylist and mentor. The business calls itself more than a salon: it is set up as a place where hairstyling, education and beauty business training happen under one roof.
The space is designed for cosmetologists, braiders, locticians, estheticians, barbers, makeup artists and people starting out in beauty. Hands-on classes and creative mentorship are central, and the business also takes braid appointments booked through its website.
Youth programs include summer braiding camps split by age. The camp for ages 10 to 13 runs as a morning session and is built for beginners. The camp for ages 14 to 17 runs in the afternoon and covers braiding technique along with the business and branding side of beauty.
Professionals can also rent space by the day, whether they braid, cut hair, work as locticians or barbers, or do makeup. A shop on the website sells beauty products.
Education and mentorship sit alongside client work, with hands-on classes, youth camps and braid appointments all run from the same studio.
The aim is a safe, empowering and creative environment, especially for young people and families.
