History
As a salon assistant at the original Velvet Monkey (on 23rd St, near OCU) and in college, I decided that I would go to hair school after I graduated college. During trade school, I worked at MAC Cosmetics and sharpened my skills as a makeup artist. Once I graduated, I worked at Velvet Monkey, the original and the plaza district location when it first opened. My old manager from the original location decided to open up Starlite Salon (near paseo in the Uptown District). To continue to grow my business, I moved to a private studio which is where I work currently.
