Meet Paige

It all started with my first Barbie…

well, sort of.

01

Raiding my mother’s vanity

Ever since I was young I’ve always had a passion for all things makeup, hair, and being as girlie as possible. Always into the trends, styles, and raiding my mother’s vanity.

02

The bathroom salon years

Growing up I did what any style-loving person would do and practiced updos and curls on my friends. Throughout the years that eventually turned into cutting and dyeing in our parents’ bathrooms.

03

A little detour

I knew that extending my education was very important and like many of us at 18, I had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up, so off to college I went. I dabbled in a few majors and eventually landed on Communication with a double minor in business and art. After I graduated I landed my first 9–5, and as time went on in my career, I always had a craving for creativity that kept seeping through.

04

The leap

I couldn’t take it any longer with the nagging feeling that I could be so much more. Someone that can make people smile, be creative, and highlight the beauty we all have! So I quit my corporate life for what I now fully embrace to be my dream career, and I couldn’t be happier.

05

Now, it’s about you

I’m endlessly grateful to my friends and family for all their love and support on this new chapter. I can’t wait to look back on all the bonds I’ve created with new friends, and on making them feel their best.

Enough about me, I want to hear about you! Come in and let’s get you feeling like your loveliest self.
