Today we’d like to introduce you to Sonia Morgan.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
My journey as a hair and makeup artist started after college. I was recruited by John Casablanca’s Modeling Agency as their regular hair and makeup artist for fashion shoots. For the past ten years I have worked in the Houston area, creating glamorous looks for a pretty diverse clientele.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
The beauty industry is in constant flux. You have to keep your finger on the pulse of what’s trending, while also keeping your artistic integrity. Like most small business, the biggest struggle is to get your name out there. Once you’ve done that it’s about staying current. Reputation is everything in this business. That’s why it’s so important to always be learning new skills and consistently delivering a product that people want.
Please tell us about Freestyle Makeup and Co.
Freestyle Makeup and Co. specializes in creating looks for clients that make them feel like a million bucks. As the head artist I specialize in air brush makeup, with the temperature in Houston, I find airbrush to be a great skill to have, as the looks are able to withstand the heat far better traditional makeup applications. Much like Houston takes pride in its diversity, Freestyle Makeup prides it’s self on diversity as well. We can deliver a diverse range of looks to meet whatever the client is looking for. Whether it’s glam, high fashion, natural, or even pin-up, we do it all. With so many events in Houston, I have had a blast doing looks for just about every event. Weddings, Music Videos, Short Films, Public Speaking Engagements, Pageants, Body Building Completions, you name it, I’ve done it. What sets us apart for others in our field is the client’s overall experience. When someone books a session with us, we have the experience to provide them the service that best suits their needs. No matter your complexion or skin-tone, we have high quality products that allow us to customize a look that compliments your natural beauty.
If you had to go back in time and start over, would you have done anything differently?
I honestly wouldn’t have done anything differently. It’s been an awesome journey so far and I’m excited for wherever it could take me in the future.
