I understand hair can be frustrating---you want it to look good, so why is it always so messy? I've learned ways to pin my own hair back for a cute, easy look, and I am looking forward to spreading that knowledge through this class with easy-to-follow videos. Growing up, I was the friend who always did everyone's makeover for school dances. I loved helping the other girls see the beauty in themselves and shine outwardly just as beautifully as they were already shining internally. I am passionate about spreading positive beauty messages and tips that make everything easier and less intimidating.
