And most of the time… for family sessions, it isn’t always the focus! 😂😂😂🤪🤪🤪

Sometimes learning something new can be painful.

You ever cross your legs or arms different than how you normally do?

It feels weird. Not normal. But why? Because you’ve been programmed or you’ve programmed yourself to believe this is the way it is supposed to be.

Change is uncomfortable … like when you love a traditional braid, and your instructor forces you to do a Dutch braid by yourself but your fingers don’t cooperate, it looks uneven, you’re sure everyone in class is better because you suck … and you tear up your studio in a temper tantrum. I mean … theoretically.

Sigh … I’m not proud of how I handle stress. It’s a toxic trait that I am working on.

But, look. I didn’t die. The braid doesn’t look THAT bad for my first solo full Dutch braid.

Sigh… always growing.
Always growing. Sometimes it is painful and you have to temper tantrum.

So, cheers to moving forward.
Cheers to the uncomfortable.
Cheers to temper tantrum
Cheers to me calling myself out on my s**t.

Cheers to growth and being uncomfortable.

[05/10/21]   Hello world! Especially the East Coast.
With the price of gas going crazy and the East Coast at the mercy of hackers, we may require clients to come to the home studio to preserve what we have.

We will keep everyone posted.

One of my most favorite looks is a soft natural look!

Want soft and subtle? @faceatelier is literally my most favorite foundation ever! It makes me so happy when the foundation can be light to full coverage!

It’s literally my most favorite product in my kit!

Adding some final touches to my client yesterday. And this magician ... TABZ, on hair!
I love this stage, almost done and everything is starting to come together.
I get asked, often, why I do eyes first and then foundation.
No reason in particular, there is no right or wrong way to apply your makeup ... aside from sanitation reasons.
I love to be messy with my eyeshadow. Clean it up and then apply foundation. Just my style. Nothing more ... nothing less. I'm just playing in color!
