Her new venture, a small partnership (MB) named \u201cBalta drob\u0117\u201d (White Canvas), is set to open in Vilnius this autumn. The facility will feature three specialized treatment rooms and a team of professionals, marking a significant expansion from her previous solo work.<\/p>\n<p>Draugel\u0117 began her career in 2009, initially focusing on classic moisturizing treatments and event makeup. However, her professional interests evolved toward solving complex skin issues. To deepen her expertise, she completed a Bachelor\u2019s degree in cosmetology, allowing her to specialize in therapeutic treatments. This academic foundation has become the cornerstone of her new business model.<\/p>\n<p>The decision to open a private studio was not spontaneous. While the idea had been brewing for years, the daily routine of renting treatment rooms in various salons delayed the transition. Draugel\u0117 notes that her maternity leave provided the necessary pause to evaluate her future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI knew that upon returning to work, I would need a new space. I decided that instead of renting again, I would invest in my own environment,\u201d she explained. The name \u201cBalta drob\u0117\u201d was chosen to symbolize a fresh start and the creative freedom to design a space according to her own aesthetic vision.<\/p>\n<p>Transitioning from a self-employed individual to a business owner involved navigating the complexities of commercial real estate and financing. In Lithuania, a \u201cSmall Partnership\u201d (Ma\u017eoji bendrija) is a common legal structure for startups and small-scale entrepreneurs due to its flexibility and specific tax considerations.<\/p>\n<p>The expansion was made possible through financing from the \u201cMagnus\u201d credit union. Mantas Janavi\u010dius, Chairman of the Board at Magnus, noted that Draugel\u0117\u2019s story is a typical example of how long-term professional experience and clear motivation can evolve into a viable small business.<\/p>\n<p>The new studio in Vilnius is currently undergoing final interior preparations. Draugel\u0117 plans to focus on therapeutic skincare while eventually building a team to offer a broader range of services. Despite being on leave, she reports consistent interest from long-term clients awaiting the studio\u2019s opening.<\/p>\n<p>                        Vilma Draugel\u0117Mantas Janavi\u010dius<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mantas Petrauskas Author 2026-05-14 15:59 \u2022 2 min read Vilma Draugel\u0117, a cosmetologist with over fifteen years of&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":83049,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[93],"tags":[44219,44220,44221,171,44222,19700,44223,170,44224],"class_list":["post-83048","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-vilnius","tag-balta-drobe","tag-beauty-services","tag-cosmetology","tag-lithuania","tag-magnus-credit-union","tag-small-business","tag-vilma-draugele","tag-vilnius","tag-vilnius-business"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@dk\/116577849037077704","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83048","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=83048"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83048\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/83049"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=83048"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=83048"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=83048"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
