Trust the process. ✨
Ingrid may not know where we’re going yet… but I do. 😂
A beautiful updo doesn’t start with the updo. It starts with intentional sectioning, proper prep, direction, tension, balance and a strong foundation.
Every section has a purpose.
Every pin has a reason.
Every step sets up the next.
And that is exactly what I want artists to understand in my Professional Hair Education workshops.
I’m not interested in teaching you how to copy one hairstyle. I want to teach you why it works—so when the hair type changes, the inspiration photo changes, or the client sitting in your chair has completely different hair than your mannequin, you know how to adapt.
From the first section to the final pin… trust the process.
And yes, Ingrid cleans up pretty well. 😉
Fall 2026 Professional Hair Education is now open for registration.

✨ IT’S OFFICIAL — REGISTRATION IS OPEN! ✨
I’m so excited to announce my Fall 2026 Professional Hair Education Series in Vancouver. 🤍
After years of working behind the chair and 14 years of educating future hair and makeup artists, I wanted to create the kind of training that goes beyond simply learning how to recreate a hairstyle.
These small, hands-on workshops are about understanding why a style works — how to prep the hair, build the foundation, control your tools, create shape and balance, troubleshoot, and produce beautiful, long-lasting results on real clients.
Whether you’re a makeup artist who wants to confidently add hair to your services, an emerging hairstylist, or an experienced artist wanting to elevate your bridal work, there’s an option for you:
🤍 LEVEL 1 — BEGINNER HAIR STYLING INTENSIVE
Oct. 6, 8 & 13 | 10 AM–2 PM
Early Bird $625 + GST
Regular $695 + GST
🤍 LEVEL 2 — ADVANCED BRIDAL & EVENT HAIR
Nov. 3, 5 & 10 | 10 AM–2 PM
Early Bird $695 + GST
Regular $795 + GST
✨ OR TAKE BOTH & SAVE
Complete Fall Hair Education Series — $1,195 + GST
That’s 6 hands-on classes + 24 hours of professional education, with a savings of $295 off regular combined tuition.
📍 Gastown, Vancouver
🎓 Hands-on professional education
👥 Maximum 6 artists per level
☕ Light refreshments provided
✨ Certificate of Completion
Keeping these classes small is very intentional. I want time to work with each artist individually, answer questions, troubleshoot and share the real-world techniques and knowledge I’ve gained throughout my career.
Early Bird registration is now OPEN.
🔗 Full course details + registration through the link in my bio.
I cannot wait to get back into the classroom. 🤍

Nothing says summer fun like a bubble braid 🪩✨💗
I created this look for Erica before last weekend’s Rosé Disco and it was the perfect mix of playful, chic and party ready!! Bubble braids are a great way to elevate your style while keeping your hair secure for dancing the night away.
Would you rock this look?
✨ Every bride deserves to glow. ✨
Wedding week calls for a little extra self-care, and today Catherine treated herself to an Egyptian Glow Facial with dermaplaning after her lash fill.
Whether you’re having your makeup professionally done or doing it yourself, this is one of my favourite treatments to include in your bridal beauty prep.
✨ Why I love this combination:
💛 Dermaplaning gently removes peach fuzz and dead skin cells, creating an ultra-smooth canvas so skincare absorbs more effectively and makeup glides on beautifully.
✨ 24K gold sheets help leave the skin looking radiant, luminous, and refreshed while adding a luxurious touch to the treatment.
🌿 I finished with the Esthemax® Sheep Placenta HydroJelly® Mask, a deeply hydrating mask formulated to nourish the skin, support the skin’s moisture barrier, and leave the complexion looking plump, calm, and glowing. It’s one of my favourite masks when skin needs that extra boost before a big event.
The result? Smooth, hydrated, glowing skin that’s ready for wedding photos, celebrations, and all those close-up moments.
This treatment isn’t just for brides. It’s also perfect before vacations, photoshoots, graduations, date nights, or anytime you want your skin looking its absolute best.
Congratulations, Catherine! Wishing you the most beautiful wedding weekend and a lifetime of happiness. 🤍✨

✨ Calling All Makeup Artists! ✨
I need your help!
Over the past several years, we’ve seen a significant decline in enrollment in professional makeup programs. As both a professional makeup artist and educator, I want to better understand what’s happening in our industry and how we can better prepare the next generation of artists.
Whether you’re professionally trained, self-taught, or somewhere in between, your experience matters.
I’m conducting a survey to learn:
💄 How you entered the industry
🎓 Whether makeup school prepared you for the real world
💼 How you find clients and build your business
📈 What skills have been the most valuable
💡 What you wish you’d learned before starting your career
⏱️ It takes 10 minutes or less to complete.
My goal is to use this information to help improve makeup education, strengthen industry training, and ensure future artists graduate with the skills they need to succeed.
👉 The survey link is in my bio.
If you know another makeup artist, please share this post or tag them below. The more voices we hear, the more meaningful the results will be.
Thank you for being part of this important conversation. ❤️

Every day I sit face to face with women from all walks of life… brides, mothers, daughters, entrepreneurs and artists. My career may be makeup artistry but what I really get to witness is something much deeper.
I see the quiet confidence, the vulnerability, the strength, the excitement and the stories each woman carries with her.
Makeup isn’t about changing who someone is. It’s about creating space for a woman to see themselves … sometimes in a new light, sometimes exactly as she is and reminding her that her beauty was always there.
On International Women’s Day, I’m celebrating the women who trust me to be part of their moments, their milestones, and their memories. It’s an honour I never take lightly.
Here’s to strong, beautiful, complex women …. today and every day ❤️

Amanda is absolutely glowing in this white pant suit moment… strong, feminine, radiant… and fully in her power. Maternity sessions like this will forever have my heart. There’s a softness, but also this quiet strength that just can’t be replicated.
As a mama myself, these shoots always mean a little more to me. I know what this season holds, the anticipation, the changes, the deep love that’s already there before you even meet them. Capturing that is such an honour.
Amanda, you are stunning. 🤍✨
