Jaimie is only 20 years old, but has already worked in a salon for 5 years. She received her cosmetology license right after high school. For the past 2 years she’s been doing special occasion hair & makeup, color and extensions! Even though she is young, she has a fresh eye for what is in style! She is so passionate about enhancing everyone’s natural beauty. She LOVES her job and loves working with other people. Jaimie’s mission is to make people feel beautiful while still feeling like themselves.

Kristin has lived in the Hudson Valley area her entire life. She has always loved styling hair and doing makeup since she was a little girl. She decided to turn her life-long passion into a career in 2019 when she quit her 9 to 5 day-job and went to school to become a cosmetologist. She wouldn’t trade it for the world! She began in the salon world but knew her heart was in bridal hair and makeup, so she ditched the color bowls and grabbed the hairspray, teasing comb and makeup brushes and has never looked back. Kristin’s passion is making every single person feel the most beautiful by enhancing what they already have.
