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.

Hollywood Makeup Artist | Vtech Commercial

Being a Hollywood makeup artist, I mostly work on TV commercials and branded videos. I got a chance a couple of months ago to work with Justin Bell production company for two Vtech TV commercial spots. Justin Bell production was contacted by Vtech to produce several social media videos. Justin Bell is a feature film, TV, commercial, and new media producer based in Los Angeles.

I was the key hair and makeup artist on this project. Working with children is so much fun, I love that in every single filming day they are bringing something new and exciting.

Our director was Corry Wiens, Corry Wiens is an award winning director based out of Los Angeles, CA. His unique style lives in the intersection of story and grit, resulting in gripping films that leave a lasting impact.

Corry started his career as a commercial editor in Chicago and derives his rhythm for pacing and storytelling from his background in postproduction. Following his time as a commercial editor, Corry helped to grow and lead a team of filmmakers at a boutique agency focused on non-profit and documentary work. During this time, Corry developed the ability to stretch thin budgets to create high-quality films with a gritty aesthetic.

VTech is a global supplier of electronic learning products from infancy to preschool and the world’s largest manufacturer of cordless phones based in Hong Kong. It is also one of the top 50 electronic manufacturing services providers globally.

I had a great time working with Justin Bell productions and Vtech‘s team as a Hollywood makeup artist and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Celebrity Makeup Artist | Amazon Alexa Holiday Campaign

As a celebrity makeup artist, I had the luck of working with Amazon and Stept Studios on their Alexa holiday commercial shoot in Los Angeles, CA.

I groomed 8 talents in total for this commercial shoot. We were going for camera-ready, natural looks. We were filming 4 commercials during 2 shooting days in a house location.

Applying primer is the first and most important step when I start to work on a camera ready makeup look. It will help reflect light and create the illusion of invisible pores. The next step is a semi-matte finish foundation. That is the best if you are going to take a lot of photos. It does not make your skin look too dry or oily in the pictures.

Amazon Alexa, also known simply as Alexa, is a virtual assistant technology largely based on a Polish speech synthesiser named Ivona, bought by Amazon in 2013. It was first used in the Amazon Echo smart speaker and the Echo Dot, Echo Studio and Amazon Tap speakers developed by Amazon Lab126.

I had an amazing time collaborating with Stept Studios and Amazon as a celebrity makeup artist, I hope to create a long-lasting relationship with them in the future.

Commercial Makeup Artist | Wendy’s national TV commercial

As a commercial makeup artist in Los Angeles, I had the luck of working with Wendy’s on a national TV commercial advertising spot.

The Wendy’s Company is an American holding company for the major fast food chain Wendy’s. Its headquarters are in Dublin, Ohio.

Their family of services gives brands and agencies the opportunity to create cinematic content at scale and with incredible agility. They offer a highly individualized approach to commercial production, creative services, and entertainment. Every project is different, and they tailor their services to the needs of the project.

The national TV commercial concept was to create a romantic comedy feeling. We were inspired by the Too hot to handle TV show, which concept is that a group of determined singles visit paradise to meet, mingle, and remain celibate for their chance to win a large sum of money.

We were going for a glam hair and makeup look for our actors. Wavy hair, glowing skin, brushed-through brows, diffused eyeshadow, and a natural, neutral lip.

I had an amazing time collaborating with Wendy’s and Stept Studios as a commercial makeup artist in Los Angeles, I hope to create a long-lasting relationship with them in the future.
