Summary

I am Lindsey, a cosmotolgy student with a passion for hair, makeup and social media. I am a self-trained makeup artist and have been for the last 10+ years! I have been managing social media pages, studying the analytics and algorithms for 5 years now!


I have started my Cosmotogy career with the intention of opening my own salon! I want to create a queer friendly space that is gender-affirming for all! This is what means the most to me; to have every person so comfortable in my chair they can be their true selves.


I have been styling, coloring and lightening my own hair as well as friends and family over the last 10 years. I am so excited to see what the next 10 years look like!
