HAIR & MAKEUP | BRIDAL SPECIALIST

Hello, my name is Faith, and I graduated from Paul Mitchell in 2021. Being a beauty professional is my true passion, and I absolutely love what I do. While many people think being a “beauty professional” is just about doing hair and makeup, I believe it's so much more than that. As beauty professionals, we have the privilege of enhancing our clients' natural beauty, but we also create meaningful relationships, make art, and leave lasting memories. We inspire others, build confidence, and brighten their days.

I believe this is what defines me as a beauty professional. I’m always seeking opportunities to help others feel confident and beautiful—not only through my craft but through the genuine conversations we share. For me, it’s about making every person feel valued and uplifted, inside and out
