Raquel

"It's a beautiful thing when a career and a passion come together" -Unknown

Raquel has been in the beauty industry since 2008. She has dabbled in other industries but keeps coming back to where her heart is. She got her start at an Estée Lauder cosmetic counter and has since expanded her training and expertise. She is an extremely talented hairstylist and makeup artist.

"I absolutely love what I do and the connection I make with everyone who sits in my chair. I love that I have clients that have seen me grow professionally and personally. Those connections are what make this a beautiful career."

Raquel strives to bring a creative hair or makeup idea to life and show it to the world.

It's an ever changing industry as fashion changes so does hair and she loves to give each person something unique and fitting for their aesthetic and lifestyle.
