Hair in Theatre
One aspect of my work in the entertainment industry that I particularly enjoy is creating hairstyles from different eras. Whether it’s a classic wet set reminiscent of Jackie Kennedy in the 1960s, an intricate and adorned style inspired by Marie Antoinette in the 18th century, or glamorous Hollywood waves for Marilyn Monroe, I have likely created or put my own spin on generational iconic looks.
In case you haven’t caught on yet,
I LOVE STYLING HAIR!
“A significant portion of my career has been dedicated to creating hundreds of hairstyles that maintain structure, design, and consistency night after night on stage. Applying theatrical experience in the wedding hair world grants me the skill to produce professional-quality work for both modern and traditional styles in a timely manner while making brides feel adorned.”
