I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Cheenie was extremely professional, prompt, and detail-oriented from start to finish. You can truly tell she takes pride in the quality of her work.
She listened carefully to exactly what I wanted and delivered it perfectly—my hair and makeup were all-natural, soft, and beautiful, just the way I envisioned. Nothing felt overdone, and everything looked effortless and elegant.
Even more impressive: my hair and makeup stayed flawless through the rain. Not a single issue, which says everything about the quality of her products and technique.
If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, talented, and truly attentive to detail, I highly recommend her. I would absolutely book again!

Cheenie was absolutely wonderful to work with as we were preparing for my son’s wedding. She did my hair and makeup, as well as my teen daughter’s hair. and everything turned out beautifully. She’s incredibly detail-oriented, very sanitary, and so friendly—she made us feel comfortable and cared for the entire time. Her work is stunning and lasted all day. She’s also very responsive to messages, which is very appreciated! Highly recommend her!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Services price range from $25 to $185 based on the type of service.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I took trainings and workshops about makeup and hairstyling but I believe that learning never stops especially on the new trends and techniques now a days so I still chose to be in Kristina Gasperas Beauty Academy up until now.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
My love for makeup started at a young age through my Mom and it only continued to grow.
