April Joy Artistry

Okayyy… my Ray-Ban Meta came to work with me 😂👀

A little POV of me creating this Quinceañera hairstyle from start to finish 👑🥰

The teasing, the bungee pins, the bangs coming out of the roller… and then the moment she checks the back and says she likes it 🤗🤍

And of course… “Oh, your tiara!” 😅👑

Then I got a hug at the end 🥰🤗 My favorite part.

POV: You’re getting ready for your Quinceañera photoshoot 👑✨

A little more glam, a little more definition, and still making sure she feels like herself. 🤍

And every time I handed her the mirror…

“I like it.” 🥰

Okayyy, that’s all I needed to hear! 🤗

From skin prep to the final spray, every little detail matters when you’re getting ready for such a special milestone. 👑

And yes… we did one last check before I locked everything in. 💕

Would you go for this level of glam for your Quinceañera? 👑✨

Two bridesmaids. Two different vibes. ✨

One went for a soft half-up with simple twists 🤍
The other chose a low pony with braids on one side ✨

Same wedding, different hairstyles… and I love how they each got a look that felt like THEM. 🥹

Which one is your pick? 👀
1️⃣ Half-up
2️⃣ Low pony

She just wanted to look like herself… 🤍

And that’s exactly what we did.

A little more glam than what I normally post… but still keeping it natural and true to my style. ✨💄

Love this look. 😍

POV: You booked me for your engagement shoot glam in Tokyo… 🇯🇵✨

10% makeup, 90% kulitan (goofing around) 😂

When you and your client just HIT. THE. VIBE. 🤣

From posing, being cute, random sexy dancing, “sino ka jan?” (who are you?!) every few minutes, calling herself Barbie, getting sleepy while I’m doing her makeup… somehow this appointment turned into a whole comedy show. 😂

And of course, the groom got a cream puff too because I remembered he likes them. Ate duties. 😂🥰

Then off we went around Shibuya for their engagement shoot! 😍🇯🇵

The things we do for our clients… 😂

Somehow, I couldn’t find my hair toolbox in the middle of a destination job in Tokyo. So there I was, digging through my luggage in the back of a moving van looking for my bobby pins and elastics. 😂

My bride-to-be was just watching me like, “What are you doing there, ma’am?” and then, “What if we suddenly slam on the brakes?!” 😭😂

Eventually I gave up and decided I’d just buy some pins when we got to the next location.

Then I struggled to get back to my seat, apparently forgot I’m not 20 anymore, and somehow turned into an action star. 😂🎬

“April the action star! Superstar!” ⭐️😂

And yes… I eventually found the hair tools. 😂

Just another day on a destination job. 🇯🇵🤍

A little groom glow in Tokyo. 🇯🇵

This was for their engagement photoshoot in Tokyo, and yes… it was raining. 😂 They walked A LOT, explored the city, and the makeup still held up beautifully.

I know because I was there with them the whole time. 🤍

I had so much fun getting him camera-ready and then experiencing Tokyo with this sweet couple. Definitely one of those jobs that reminded me why I love what I do.

And now I’m thinking… I could really get used to destination work. ✈️👀

More destination weddings & photoshoots, please. 🥰

I've got you.
Still you, just more elevated 🥰

POV: You hand the mother of the bride the mirror for her reveal… 🥲

“Perfect… ohhh, I absolutely love it. Thank you, April.” 🤍

She was almost teary-eyed… and then she hugged me. 🥲🫶🏻 These are the moments that remind me why I love what I do. 🤍
