Velma McMillan has an executive-level position at the Quantum Alliance General Agency, Ms. McMillan tapped into her entrepreneurial spirit in becoming a multi-unit franchise partner with Blo Blow Dry Bar in 2021. Inspired to help women feel beautiful and confident, she wished to open a salon nearby her residence rather than traveling more than one hour away to get her hair done. She knew other women in her community also felt frustrated with the lack of beauty salon options, so she applied her knowledge of the business world to become a franchisee. To accompany her work with Blo Blow Dry Bar, she has been an independent beauty consultant through Mary Kay Cosmetics since 2016. She has always believed that the key to a happy life is to put God first, family second and career third. She attributes her success to her passion for ensuring that her four children, Page, Matthew, Madison and Marshall, are left with a positive legacy and the motivation to create something they can later pass on to her their own children.
