Ladraya Manns, co-owner of Sheek 911 boutique, club
promoter, and event planner from Milwaukee, Wisconsin has a hefty plate. She is
hardworking and dedicated to making her dreams come true.
On Sunday January 8, 2017 Ladraya put on a hair show “In
Living Color” showcasing the talent of hairstylists in the Milwaukee area, if
you missed it you definitely lost out on a good time! There were models with
all different types of hair, one of which being ME on behalf of Del-Lea “LeaDidIt”
Atkins. I really enjoyed myself!
When I asked Ladraya about her motivation for the show she
responded, “From a very young age I participated in hair shows, I have always
loved performing and I love people!”
The hair show not only helped her image, but it also provides
opportunities to many people. It allowed exposure for the stylists and models
involved. Ladraya explained that she sees this as a win win and commented, “This
is a chance to showcase art, and let others see what we do.”
Putting on different events, while working full time,
balancing the boutique with co-founders Rachel Vasquez and Deonna Rice, and
doing club promotion is a lot for one person to do alone but she manages
explaining that “failure is not an option,” all while looking fierce!
Ladraya’s mother is really sweet and easy to talk to, she
also does all that she can to help out at the boutique and helps bring her daughter’s
dreams to life. Seeing how they interact first hand, it was obvious that the
love and support is there. You can catch

It was definitely a pleasure interviewing Ladraya, she is
kind, funny, and genuine, and she also saved my birthday as it was truly a
disaster but that is a different story for a different day! I am so glad to say
that I know her and hope to work with her again in the future!
