*Esteemed hairstylist, beauty expert and image consultant Gocha Hawkins kicked off the new year with an all-new season of “L.A. Hair” and a new book, Gocha’s Blueprint to Business 101: 7 Quick Tips to Being a Boss.
Premiering Thursday night at 9/8c on WE tv, “L.A. Hair” season 5 found celeb stylist Kim Kimble rebuilding her “Kimpire,” as she brings on five new stylists to battle for a coveted spot in her salon. After a heated exchanged with Kim in Atlanta last season, Gocha returns to Los Angeles to style her West Coast clients and makes an offer that Kimble cannot refuse. Tune in tonight at 9/8c on WE tv to catch all the drama.
In addition to her role as a TV personality, Gocha is also now a self-published author of her first book, “Gocha’s Blueprint to Business 101,” a handy advice guide for aspiring entrepreneurs and young professionals.
“I am approached by so many people on a daily basis who don’t have a clue about common business practices,” she says. “Things like how to start a business, how to dress for an interview and customer service skills are topics I find myself discussing often. The need for information was greater than I imagined. So, it only made sense to write a book with quick tips to enlighten people from all career paths.”
Readers can expect straightforward tips on topics such as networking and relationships, leadership skills, teamwork, money management and more. Gocha incorporates various personal anecdotes throughout the book to make for a relatable, real-world advice tool.
