I had the privilege of working with Amber recently, and I got to see her beautiful masterpiece of a bride when she was finished with her hair and make up! Just by watching Amber at work, I can tell she absolutely loves what she does and she is SO talented! Brides, you can definitely trust Amber with your wedding hair and make up! Here are some questions that she answered for us so that you can learn more about her and her business:
How did your business get started?
I worked at an amazing salon when I was pregnant with my daughter and I decided I wanted to be a stay at home mom, but when I waspregnant with my son I decided I wanted to go back to work. So I jumped in and started my own salon.
How did your passion for doing hair and make up arise?
When I was in high school I always did different styles with my hair and I always did my makeup. I guess I’ve always had a passion for hair and makeup.
How do you get ideas to come up with different hair/make up styles?
I watch a lot of educational videos and learn new techniques. I always want to try out what I learn.

Every bride is different. Some brides want a smokey look and some like a more natural look.

I love how makeup can make a woman feel. I love to make them feel beautiful.
What does a makeover for brides consist of?
A makeover consists of a make up look and a hairstyle that fits the bride.
What is your best tip for brides as far as make up goes?
Do a makeup look that makes you feel good. Whether it’s a more natural or more bold look. Don’t let anyone influence your decision.
What sets you apart from other make up artists?
Since I am fairly new to makeup I am very open minded and not set in my own ways. I love learning and trying new things.
Anything else you would like to add?
I love the feeling I get when I make a bride feel amazing on her wedding day. I love my job and I could never imagine myself doing anything else.
