Longtime employee Christina Stephens took over the business in 2019 and it's been a rough road through the pandemic since then.
"We're just hitting a point to where we can barely keep our heads above water," says Christina Stephens, the owner ofat 4736 East Colfax Avenue, which will close August 28."I don't want to ever push it to a point where I put my employees in a position where they have to suffer because of my bad judgment."
Hot-Chick-A-Latte was anything but corporate. The experience was"really fun and inviting," she recalls, but she also encountered"a lot of judgment [in] the owner's idea of beauty and what it meant to be a Hot Chick." When Stephens reopened the place in 2019 — after making repairs on the building to get things up to code — that judgment was"something I really wanted to stop," she says."I believe that beauty comes in all shapes, sizes and colors.
