Hey dolls!
This is my first blog for Glam On Location! I will be keeping everyone up to date on what events I am doing and some of the cool things I am up to. I am super excited to begin this experiance and share with everyone all the fun things I get to do.
I am going to start this blog with introducing myself to everyone and letting them know more about why I love what I do SO MUCH!
For starters, I am 30! wow! lol I have 3 children, they are 3,4, and 9. My husband and I have been married 10 years which blows my mind. I am going to post my message from my website below. Please keep coming back for more updates. I promise they will get better! I plan on updating with demos, before and after pics and lots of cool reviews! Down the road I plan to do some give-a-ways for some of my favorite products...
It has always been a passion of mine to take a blank canvas and make it amazing. I love to work on a virgin face making it over adding lashes, adding some color, and watching the clients face as they are overwhelmed with how beautiful they look. It is the most rewarding job on the planet! Who else gets to be a real life fairy godmother and transform Cinderella for her ball?
I have been in this industry since 1997. I started as basic as it gets in a local cosmetology school. While in school I was at the top of my class scoring the president’s award two years running. I won a trip to Syracuse to represent my school in a state competition senior year.
When I graduated and started working in salons, I knew that I would never be happy working in a “chain” situation and needed to be in control of my future. I began working in a salon/spa doing hair and loved what I did. I would work on clients for weddings, proms, or events and found that it was something I really loved. After a few years I knew that my passion was working with brides and the bridal party. Then one day during a trial run at the salon; a bride said that she really wished she could relax at home on her wedding day with her family instead of spending the entire morning at the salon. I thought “what a great idea that is!”
I started going on location and providing my services to brides in the comfort of their own homes or wherever they were getting ready. After a year of doing this I decided that I would like to further my training and have since been trained in full cosmetic makeup artistry in addition to my hair experience.
My first love is hair! It is why I got into the business in the first place. I love to do an intricate up do, or a swept away simple curled look. I get inspiration from actresses and singers at award shows. Some of my favorite trend setters are Kim Kardashian, Jessica Simpson, and Carrie Underwood. They have such a range of beauty from glamorous to simple splendor.
My favorite invention (next to my i-phone) is my Temptu Pro airbrush machine. I can use my airbrush to create a photo finish on each client. Along with airbrush I use several different brands of cosmetics on my clients. I like to cocktail different products to create a unique look on every client. My goal for every wedding is for the bride to step away from my chair blown away with the look I created for them.
I am flattered that you have taken the time to read about me and my passion. I would love to hear from you to help plan the perfect bridal package for your wedding day or event.
