TESTIMONIALS
“I cannot speak HIGHLY enough about Carisa… like she will forever be a go to for me in LA! I’ve had my hair and makeup done by her for multiple tv/Netflix appearances, and I couldn't be happier with the results each time. She listens and deliverssss. The makeup was flawless and looked amazing on camera, and the hairstyle was exactly what I envisioned. Prob my favorite updo to date. On top of that she is very friendly/a whole vibe, making the whole thing more fun.
Highly recommend ⚡️”
-Micah Lussier from “Love Is Blind” S6
“Carisa is an absolute gem! As a musical artist, my look plays a huge role in how I express myself, and she always delivers hairstyles that bring my vision to life. She comes up with the coolest, most creative looks for my photoshoots, and I trust her completely with my hair. On top of her amazing talent, she’s incredibly sweet, patient, and always ready for anything. She’s more than just my hairstylist—she’s become like a sister to me. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
-Cassie Marin Musical Artist
