10: Jade Castle and Her Beauty Boss Journey
Thursday Aug 02, 2018
Thursday Aug 02, 2018
Jade Castle is the founder and director of Kaftanned. An after-tanning apparel line that Ive personally been stocking in my beauty business since they launched back in 2013.
Frustrated at the limited types of clothing that she could wear after spray tanning, Jade felt that by designing something herself, would possibly solve a problem that clients are always having, and tanning technicians could finally offer a solution for them.
This led Jade to going into business with her mum and sister, Kaftanned hit this niche market and now is offered globally and they have over 300 stockists in Australia, New Zealand, U.S and U.K.
These designs are fun gorgeous prints that are affordable to have your clients coming back for every colour and style when they launch.
Jade was recently featured on Australia’s hit TV show Shark Tank, which Steve Baxter decided to jump at the chance of the Kaftanned Brand.
Jade has so much more to offer and I know there is a bit in the works at the moment, and I am so grateful Ive had this opportunity to share this interview with you. If you have ever thought of an idea for a beauty business, if you want to develop your own product line, Jade is proof that it is possible.
We’ve got 2 prizes of 2 kaftans each to giveaway for the show. To win I need you to simply go and follow kaftanned on Instagram, and screen shot you listening to the podcast and upload it as an Instagram story. Make sure you tag @kaftanned and @beautybusiness_co to enter correctly.

Kat Hazel has a passion for inspiring self growth and wellness. Kat started blogging in 2015 while studying her Diploma in Beauty Therapy. The Blog was started with the intention of empowering women of all ages to be reminded of their unique beauty and individual qualities.
When I first contacted Kat it was to get her permission to post the launch of Beauty Business Co in her Facebook Group Beauty Therapists of Australia, which led us to having an amazing conversation uncovering that she manages a lux Day Spa called Cacoon Spa is South Australia, hosts her own You Tube Channel with the vision to become an educator and write a book for Beauty therapists that will empower them when they are first starting out in the industry.
There is no saying that Kat's Beauty Boss journey is going to make you feel inspired to be the best version of yourself.
Since our interview, Kat has been nominated for Beauty Therapist of the Year Award and the day spa she works are FINALISTS in the 2018 Australian Beauty Industry Awards for 2018.
Her facebook group has also grown to 1000 members which is just fantastic.
