The Journey of

The Stylist

Takeover

Founded in 2017 by Lakecha Dionne, an accomplished cosmetologist, educator, and visionary leader, The Stylist Takeover was birthed from a divine passion to serve, elevate, and empower professionals within the beauty industry.

What began as a small group of like-minded beauty professionals quickly ignited into a powerful movement—a takeover—driven by purpose, passion, and the pursuit of excellence. Lakecha rose to the occasion as not only a stylist, but as a mentor and coach, answering the call to guide others toward greater purpose and professional success.

From cosmetologists to trichologists, barbers to braiders, estheticians to educators, makeup artists to product developers—The Stylist Takeover has become a thriving hub for beauty entrepreneurs. Under Lakecha’s leadership, the movement has:

  • Encouraged licensure and professional credibility

  • Promoted continued education and skills mastery

  • Elevated brand awareness and business visibility

  • Supported product creation and intellectual property development

  • Fueled entrepreneurial growth and generational wealth building

Through hands-on workshops, dynamic classes, impactful books, and transformative coaching, hundreds of beauty professionals have been equipped and empowered to take their passion to the next level.

This is more than a brand—it’s a mission. A legacy. A movement.

The Stylist Takeover is anointed to flourish and thrive—and to ensure the entire beauty industry rises with it.

I’ve been apart of The Stylist Takeover Movement for about 4 yrs now. When I first met Ms. Lakecha I just knew I had to be apart of this movement. She has been such a great influence for my business and myself. I love how she supports everyone no matter if you’re apart of the movement or not. She’s always there to give advice and to help you along your journey in this hair industry. I’m very thankful for all she has done for me and appreciate her thoroughly. She’s truly one of a kind!

Lakecha Dionne is more than just a visionary leader, she is one of my biggest supporters. She keeps me grounded, holds me accountable, and genuinely cares about the growth and success of my businesses. Her dedication is unmatched.

The Stylist Takeover is an amazing movement for so many reasons, but what I appreciate most is the unwavering support. It's not just a network, it’s a true sisterhood. We show up for one another, we check in regularly, and we share our highs and lows. Whether it's laughter or prayer, encouragement or advice, there's always someone there.

Lakecha goes above and beyond for each and every member. She’s hands-on, deeply relatable, and fully invested in seeing us win. Being a part of this movement has been transformative, and I’m grateful to do life and business with women who uplift, empower, and believe in each other.
