About
Hi! I’m Carla Pressley and I do hair and makeup! I’m a mixed African American/Korean chick born the year of the dog, I’m also a sentimental Cancer. I laugh EXACTLY like my two brothers, try eating vegan most of the time, love yoga, and tear up every time dads see’s the bride for the first time. I am a military brat and proud of the US Armed Forces.
I began my career in the beauty industry over 18 years ago with PR @ Partners, a Washington D.C area franchise salon and MAC Cosmetics.
I’m #blessed to work with clients of all complexions, hair textures, cultures, genders, and walks of life.
No matter what makes us different, there's so much more that makes us the SAME.
I have a background in the fashion Industry as well as in the Salon. I can cut, color, relax, and perm hair, although nowadays I mostly style hair and do makeup on location photos, television, production, and events.
I’ve been chosen by The Knot and Wedding Wire to be a 2023 Business Mentor, and in 2023 was established in The Knot’s Hall of Fame. Every year we win awards for our service and artistry. It is our past clients who have made this all possible.
My mobile hair and makeup company has a talented team of artists who are trained by me and have years of experience.
Clients include Netflix, Project Runway, Macy’s, Tarte, Microsoft, Marc Jacobs, RuPaul, Ali Wong, CNN, Heads of State, Corporate Executives, High Profiles, Celebrities, Magazines, and Martha Stewart Weddings amongst others.
I pride myself in helping you feel confident from the inside out. People always compliment me for my naturally glam looks and for creating a calming environment.
I look forward to meeting you and helping you create the look you want.
