Charnell Smith

My name is Charnell, and I’m the founder and owner of Nani au Lash & Skin Studio—a faith-based studio for beauty, peace, and purpose. As a licensed esthetician and lash artist, I’ve dedicated my hands and heart to enhancing natural beauty while honoring the One who created it. “Nani au” means I am beautiful in Hawaiian, and I truly believe beauty begins from the inside out—when identity is anchored in Christ. More than a studio, Nani au is a space where both clients and professionals experience excellence, elegance, and ease. I proudly offer private salon suites to fellow beauty entrepreneurs, providing not just a place to grow—but a safe, spirit-filled atmosphere to thrive. Whether you’re here for a service or building your dream, you’ll find grace, hospitality, and a quiet reminder that you’re seen and chosen. At the core of all I do is Jesus, family, and community. I’ve witnessed firsthand how healing can happen when peace meets purpose, and it’s my joy to create that environment every single day. You’re not just booking an appointment or renting a suite—you’re entering a space that was prayed over long before your arrival.

Vanessa Martinez

My name is Vanessa, I’ve been a lash technician for 2 years now. I decided to become a las tech to help all beautiful women grow their self-confidence and help them look more beautiful than they naturally are.✨ I started working in another country until I moved to Texas and then here in Slidell. I love the humidity weather and rainy days here, make me feel in peace. I want my clients to feel as safe and comfortable with me as I am here, to exploit that beauty with delicacy and elegance.✨ Feel safe in this place, feel safe with yourself. And here at Kanvas Lashes, we get that for you.✨
