Erin Renfrow

I arrived at the Hosek/Barker wedding to do Rachel Crosby's hair and make-up (see post below) and I met Erin there.  Everyone wanted their hair up, and several people had tried to accomplish an updo with Erin's hair with no success.  She asked me if she could hire me to do her hair as well.  I realized as soon as I started on her hair why people were having trouble, but I loved the challenge.  Erin has one of the thickest ponytails I've ever seen--her hair is awesome and ridiculously thick!  That doesn't bode well for hairpins...but thankfully I own the most wonderful set of mega-pins for thick hair.  I've never failed at getting thick hair to stay up and secure as long as I've used them.  I went for a classy side bun with Erin, and it turned out great.  I didn't do her make-up but had a great time doing the hair!




Rachel Crosby


September was "wedding month" at studio L!  This is Rachel Crosby...she was a bridesmaid for Leigh and Joe Barker's wedding on Sept. 20th.  I did her hair and make-up.  Rachel is already a beautiful girl, so it was tons of fun to play in make-up with her.


This is my favorite eye make-up look.  The foundation of the look is MAC eye shadow in the color "Trax" which is a burgandy/plum flecked with bronze.  I used other shadows with it to blend, and highlight shadow on her browbone is Lancome in "Honeymoon."



This is a "before and after" look...Rachel is gorgeous with bare skin, so you can see how this was an "easy job" to enhance what is already there...  :)
