DunbiBeauty, LLC

Business Description

I originally tried perfume-making back in 2020 after I left my job due to the pandemic. That’s when I created the acronym for Dunbi: Diversely Unique. Newly Bloomed. Illuminated. I wanted these to be the main feelings you feel when wearing one of my homemade scents. However, this didn’t work out as it was too costly to explore, but I decided to keep the acronym and revisit the perfumes at a later point. Throughout the year, there was trial and error (pleather craft and jewelry making). It wasn’t until a year later that I decided what I wanted to do. I took an interest in decorated nails and hand sewn wigs. (Newly Bloomed.) In the same year (2021) I added the tag line: Dunbi is a definition. Beauty is a craft. So, I finally decided to go into the beauty industry by opening an Etsy shop!

I opened my shop on April 6th and received my first two sales by the end of the month. My second sale is what helped me realize I chose the right venture. My second customer was undergoing chemotherapy and had ordered a wig-a burgundy unit-named ‘Reserved Yet Spicy’. Instead of naming the wigs after female names, I decided to use positive words, personalities and character traits, so that way, the person wearing it can actually have a connection with it. I believe people glow in a special way when they wear something that represents who they are, and I want to help them find that glow. (Illuminated.) She also gave me my first review and first 5-star rating. We’ve become great friends and even collaborated on some of her wigs.

From there, I’ve expanded to a variety shop that houses fashion, wellness, kitchen, hobby, beauty, gaming, office and more for all, including items I design-Designed by Dunbi. (Diversely Unique.) I also send handwritten letters to customers, thanking them for their support of my business.
