Mr. Thank You – Let It Fly | Celebrity Men’s Groomer

As a Los Angeles celebrity men’s groomer, I had the luck of working with Mr. Thank You on his Let It Fly music video in Downtown LA. The video was produced by AM Producer, a boutique creative and full production agency.

Grooming is important on professional shoots because it helps you present a polished and professional appearance. A well-groomed look shows that you take care of yourself and pay attention to details, which can give potential clients or employers confidence in your abilities and create different looks for you. Additionally, a clean and neat appearance can help you stand out in a crowded field, making you more memorable and recognizable.

On this music video shoot I also used wigs to create different characters. Usually I start with braiding the hair under the wig cap. What you’ll need to put on a wig cap:

Wig cap (that has a good colour match)
Bobby pins (optional)
Hair ties (optional)
Scalp protector spray (optional)

Follow these steps to put on your wig:

Step 1 – Apply Protector Spray (Optional)

Step 2 – Choose Your Wig Cap ( Wig caps are optional and they have their pros and cons, but many wig wearers like to wear a wig cap for the additional comfort and extra security that they provide. )

Step 3 – Prepare Your Head for Applying a Wig Cap

Step 4 – Put On and Align Your Wig Cap

Step 5 – Secure Your Wig Cap

Step 6 – Put On Your Wig

I had an amazing time collaborating with Mr. Thank You and AM Producer as a Los Angeles celebrity men’s groomer, I hope to create a long-lasting relationship with them in the future.

Amazon Blink Holiday Commercial | Professional makeup artist

As a professional makeup artist , I recently I had the luck of working on an Amazon Blink Holiday commercial shoot. I created the hair and makeup looks for the talents during the 2 day shoot.

About Blink: Armed with two-way audio, HD video, customizable motion detection, and more — Blink smart security devices allow you to see, hear, and speak from the free Blink Home Monitor app on your smartphone. Plus, they work with select Alexa-enabled devices! Blink is proud to be an Amazon company.

I was hired by Stept Studios for this commercial shoot. Stept is an award winning creative and production studio. Known for work that feels more like entertainment than advertising. They partner with brands, agencies, and platforms to create campaigns, commercials, and branded content with authenticity at its core. Their award-winning roster of directors represents the next generation of storytellers, working across commercial and documentary genres.

The commercial was directed by Adam Patch, a commercial and film director. We were filming at the Golden Oak Ranch. Located within the 30-Mile Zone, the Golden Oak Ranch is a movie ranch like no other. Understanding that getting the most out of a shoot day is vital in today’s film, television and commercial industry, Disney and ABC Studios constructed two back lots on the Ranch—a Business District and a Suburban Street—so that part of the day could be filled staging an outdoor football scene in one of the many meadows, while the other part could be spent filming a crime scene in the alley at the Business District.

I had an amazing time working with with Blink and Stept Studios as a professional makeup artist and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Irresistible Me Collaboration | Luxury Human Hair Wigs

This was the second time that I had a chance of collaborating with a luxury human hair wigs brand called Irresistible Me. As a Los Angeles celebrity hair stylist Irresistible Me wigs have been a huge part of my work, I love using their products on my clients.

Follow these steps to apply the hair wigs:

Prep your hair. Put your hair up close to your scalp and cover it with the wig cap. The goal is to keep your locks as flat as possible. Ideally, use a mesh cap in a similar shade to the wig’s color.
Secure the wig. Locate each securing/adjusting strap and try the wig on your head to find the best settings for your comfort.
Install the wig. Bring the wig over your head and place it perfectly on your hairline. Fix it in place and secure it with the combs inside the wig cap, adjust accordingly. Finally, cut the lace and glue the wig to your hairline.
Style it as you like. Irresistible Me human hair wigs have a pre-plucked hairline for a natural look and thanks to the front lace, you can part the hair however you like. Don’t forget to use hair protectant when you style your wig.

About Irresistible Me: They are the first hair extension brand to offer a wide range of hair textures, colors and lengths because we value inclusivity. They launched in 2012, in New York to sell hair extensions, as they saw a big opportunity to simplify hair products. They make playful, easy to use and to shop quality hair products for everybody.

Traveling hair and makeup artist | Marriott

Traveling hair and makeup artist | Marriott | Le Méridien Salt Lake City Downtown

As a traveling hair and makeup artist , I mostly work on TV commercials, branded videos, fashion shoots, events and photo shoots around the world. Recently I had the luck of working on the Travel By Design unique storytelling series.

About Marriott: Marriott Hotels & Resorts is Marriott International’s brand of full-service hotels and resorts based in Bethesda, Maryland. As of June 30, 2020, there were 582 hotels and resorts with 205,053 rooms operating under the brand, in addition to 160 hotels with 47,765 rooms planned for development.

Designer Sherry Kobashigawa’s career began in set design, which explains her drive to encorporate storytelling into the elements of her creative process.

Kobashigawa joined the team at Le Méridien Salt Lake City Downtown after construction was already underway. Nevertheless, she got to work and designed the hotel, including Parisien and Mid-century influences that meet at the intersection of the story, the landscape and the building itself.

Inspired by the mountains and the setting of Salt Lake City, Kobashigawa drew upon the grid system the city was built on to inspire the art and textiles to bring it all together. “We wanted to tie in this notion of found items as well as the element of travel.” It was the spirit of the golden age of travel that brought the story to life in a way that helped everything fall into place.

Irresistible Me Collaboration | Celebrity Hair Extensions

Recently, I had the luck of collaborating with a celebrity hair extensions brand called Irresistible Me. I love creating beautiful looks and for that Irresistible Me luxury products are a huge support at my work.

I can add length and volume in seconds to my clients.
Irresistible Me clip-in hair extensions are made with high quality 100% remy human hair. I can dye and style them with hot tools just like my client’s own hair
Irresistible Me hair color technology is multi-toned so it blends naturally and seamlessly with my client’s own hair shade. Every set comes with 1 tester piece and your purchase is color match guarantee.

Also I would recommend following these tips on how to take care of your hair extensions:

Brush often. I recommend brushing your hair twice a day as a minimum. Brush your hair extensions in the morning and before bed every night to detangle anything you’ve built up during the day. It’s also a good idea to brush your hair if you feel it becoming tangled at any point during the day.
Limit how often you wash your hair. My recommendation is to wash your hair twice a week when you have extensions.
Hair products matter. Condition the ends with hair oil if needed and always use a heat protectant before styling.

I had an amazing time collaborating with Irresistible Me as a celebrity hair stylist in Los Angeles and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Wear alone, layer over another lip color, and apply at bedtime to nourish and hydrate that perfect pout.
