How long have you been styling & cutting
hair professionally?
I have been a stylist professionally for over
a year and a half now.
When did you first become interested in hair
styling?
I have always loved doing my hair and my
friend’s hair. However I never considered it as a career.
I was going to be a school teacher. Until
after a few major events in my life I was being the "girl who cried beauty school!"
I was never intending on going to beauty
school, however God and my family had different plans and about three months after I started
using it as my excuse I was enrolled and starting.
The 2nd day in I fell in love and I can't imagine doing anything else.

Will you travel on site for bridal &

I do travel for bridal and wedding party hair.

It really depends on the wedding. I have

set prices as to the bride being more and then the bridesmaids less. However
depending on the circumstance it varies.
