In the latest episode of the Hairstyles Empowerment podcast, we are graced with the presence of the remarkable Dr. Stella Spicer. A visionary leader in the beauty industry, Dr. Spicer has dedicated her life to ministering to the whole person—spirit, soul, and body. With over four decades of experience as a licensed cosmetologist and educator, she has seamlessly blended her passion for cosmetology with her deep-rooted faith.
Dr. Spicer's journey is nothing short of inspiring. Growing up in Monrovia, California, she accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior at a young age. Despite the challenges and worldly distractions that came her way, she found her way back to her faith, much like the prodigal daughter. This spiritual foundation laid the groundwork for her future endeavors in both ministry and the beauty industry.
In 1988, Dr. Spicer founded the Christian Cosmetology International Association (CCIA), a vision born out of her desire to combine her ministry with her profession. The CCIA aims to minister to the beauty industry, offering a unique blend of faith and cosmetology. Dr. Spicer shares how this vision came to life while she was living in Chicago, feeling a pull towards something greater than her career achievements.
Dr. Spicer's educational journey is equally impressive. She holds a master's degree in divinity from Morris Cerullo World Evangelism School of Ministry and an honorary doctorate in theology from Next Dimension University and St. Stephen's Bible College. She recently received another doctorate from the International Bible University. These academic achievements have profoundly influenced her approach to cosmetology and her work within the beauty industry.
One of the most compelling aspects of Dr. Spicer's story is her role as a prophetic intercessor and teacher. She shares how prayer became a cornerstone of her life, especially while raising two teenage daughters. Her commitment to prayer and prophetic intercession has guided her through personal and professional challenges, making her a beacon of light for those around her.
The episode also delves into the evolution of the beauty industry over the past five decades. Dr. Spicer reflects on the changes she has witnessed, from the introduction of precision hair cutting by Vidal Sassoon to the current trends and challenges faced by today's beauty professionals. Despite these changes, the core principles of dedication, skill, and faith have remained constant in her work.
For those interested in entering the beauty industry while maintaining a strong faith life, Dr. Spicer offers invaluable advice. She emphasizes the importance of being steadfast and immovable in one's beliefs, even in a liberal industry. Her message is clear: God has a plan for everyone, and embracing that plan will lead to a fulfilling and impactful life.
Don't miss this enlightening conversation with Dr. Stella Spicer. Tune in to the Hairstyles Empowerment podcast and be inspired by her incredible journey of faith, beauty, and personal growth.
Quotes from Dr. Stella Spicer"Marketplace ministries were really not as common as they are today. I felt like the Lone Ranger because I thought when He called me, I was going to have a church, but that didn’t happen.""Prayer became like primary in my life. You fight on your knees."
"I always say that the industry called me. I didn’t pursue it; it pursued me."
"The anointing will either draw you or drive you."
"God has a call and a plan for your life. Your life will never be the same once you let Him in."
