About Alexa

What makes your artistry unique? What makes my artistry unique is my passion for making people feel beautiful and confident. When I am doing someone's hair or makeup, I make sure that I am giving my clients everything I've got. I want them to truly feel special and confident in themselves throughout the process.

What inspires you? Creativity is something I have always had in my life. From studying art in college to my professional career as a cosmetologist, I live and breathe it. I get the creativity from many things. It could be my wonderful dog, a walk in the forest, to a pontoon ride on the Mississippi River. It's the little moments that can generate this inspiration of creativity.

Style Icon: I love a few! Some major style icons I have are:

  • Alexander McQueen

  • Versace

  • Zendaya

  • Lily Collins

  • and many more!

Hobbies/Interests: You can find me snuggling and playing with all of my fur babies. I am a Minnesota native who has spent time living in Washington state. I love to travel and have an adventure. I am a sports enthusiast and have a special love for photography.
