About
I am a Hair and Makeup Artist born and raised in LA. I work in TV and Film most of the year and weekends are typically devoted to weddings. I began my makeup career in the wedding world and I still absolutely love getting gals ready for their big day. I provide a whole Wedding Experience to the Bride and her Bridal Party. I've done it all, from hemming pants, to doing dishes, curing bloody noses, shaving [groomsmens] necks & ear hairs, super gluing stiletto heels back on, getting rid of stains on a Wedding Dress, building bouquets and so much more. I not only do Hair & Makeup, I make sure EVERY detail is perfected and you have ZERO stress on your Wedding Day. I have a strong passion for what I do and what I bring to the table. I am always learning something new, whether its skincare, makeup, hairstyles or even how to deal with a new emergency. Every client is a test of my abilities and with every new client is a new canvas to work with. I strive to bring out the best in every face and am always completely truthful when it comes to skincare and makeup you should (and should not) be using.

Melissa was AMAZING! She worked on both hair and make-up for my bridesmaid and I. From the consultation to the day of the wedding she was so helpful, professional, and went above and beyond what was asked for. ( she even helped with my vows) Melissa was on time and graciously traveled from one destination to another. My hair and make-up were better than I ever would have imagined, and I was complimented on what a wonderful job she had done by all of my guests! I have very sensitive eyes which makes it difficult to work on my eyes. Melissa worked with me to find colors and products that would allow me to wear the make-up. I also had a look I was going for with my hair and she far surpassed my vision of it. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs either hair or makeup done. She is truly a gem!

Melissa did my hair and make-up for a formal gala which I organized and was the host for. It was a huge comfort to know I wouldnt have to worry about looking nice. INstead, she listened to what I had in mind, used her expertise to suggest what she though would work best, and make me look even better than I could have hoped. Not only did I feel beautiful in person, but I photographed well too. My experience with Melissa left me feeling so good, I was able to concentrate on the events of the evening while feeling confident and lovely and not having to worry about my hair or face. In addition to the final results, the time she spent with me before the event getting me ready, her calm, lovely personality put me at ease, kept me relaxed and in a great mood....rare, but CRUCIAL to have that on the day of a bit event. Melissa was a doll, professional and extraordinarily talented.

I cannot explain in words how amazing Melissa is!! I actually lost count on our wedding day of how many times she saved us! This girl has everything!! Every two minutes someone was running in asking me do you have such and such? Melissa always answered "oh I have some of that" It was amazing- anywhere from safety pins to hold up the ring bearers pants to excedrin migraine for me! She was fast acting with touch ups at the venue and so sweet getting along with all of my bridemaids and even my mother. :-). Not to mention our hair and make-up was beautiful, and I had never seen my 11 year old step-daughter look so elegant and like such a lady! I definitely recommend Melissa for your wedding day!!

I'm sooo happy that I chose Melissa to be my makeup artist/hair stylist for my engagement session, at the Culver Hotel, and for my wedding, at the Annenberg Community Beach House in Santa Monica . Let me just start by saying that she is nothing short of amazing! She worked with me on my budget, and was super quick with email responses to any questions I had. She arrived early to both the engagement session and the wedding (which I really appreciate, even though I am notoriously late for EVERYTHING and I did keep Melissa waiting a few times). I can be very indecisive, and Melissa worked with me during my trial session until we figured out the makeup and hairstyle of my dreams for my wedding. Melissa and her assistant did the makeup and hair for me and my three bridesmaids for my wedding. They all loved the airbrushed makeup, and it stayed looking perfect all night! Melissa even brought a bottle of champagne to our hotel room so my bridesmaids and I could enjoy it while we were getting ready! It was soo sweet! After the wedding ceremony I received compliments from so many of my guests saying how beautiful I looked, and I owe a huge thank you to Melissa and her assistant for that. I can't wait until my new husband and I celebrate our 1 year anniversary, and I can work with Melissa again on that photo shoot! If you don't choose Melissa as your makeup artist/hairstylist, believe me you are missing out on a great person, and an awesome artist.
