Today we’d like to introduce you to Maribel Hernandez
Hi Maribel, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
My journey as a makeup and hairstylist began with a passion for creativity and beauty. I’ve always been fascinated by the transformative power of makeup and hairstyling and how it can make someone feel confident and radiant. Initially, I started offering my services to friends and family. This not only allowed me to build a portfolio but also gave me valuable practical experience.
As time went on, I discovered a deep love for the artistry of weddings, where every detail matters. Being part of such meaningful moments brought me immense joy and inspired me to specialize in this area. Through word-of-mouth and client referrals, my business grew, which motivated me to continually refine my skills. I focused on staying current with bridal trends, learning from the best in the industry, and mastering new techniques and products.
A big part of my journey has been building strong relationships with my clients. These connections have been integral to my success and are something I truly value. I’m also lucky enough to have an amazing team of incredibly talented individuals who have become a huge part of my life and some of my best friends. Their support, talent, and friendship have made this journey even more fulfilling.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
One of the biggest challenges in my journey was moving from Canada and starting fresh in a new environment.
Initially, I faced challenges like understanding a new market, navigating different trends, and building trust with clients who didn’t know me yet. I had to focus on networking, leveraging social media, and providing exceptional service to create a reputation for myself in a competitive industry.
Another challenge was managing my business. It took a lot of trial and error to streamline operations, manage bookings, and ensure consistent quality as my demand increased. I also had to trust myself to take risks, like investing in better tools and marketing, even when I wasn’t sure it would pay off immediately.
Looking back, these challenges taught me resilience, adaptability, and the value of staying true to my passion and work ethic. Each obstacle helped me build a stronger foundation for my business, and I’m grateful for the lessons I’ve learned along the way.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I specialize in makeup and hairstyling for weddings, focusing on creating personalized, radiant looks that enhance my clients’ natural beauty while making them feel confident and relaxed on their special day. Whether it’s elegant updos, soft romantic curls, or flawless makeup with a dewy finish, I ensure every detail is tailored to each client’s individual style and personality.
What sets me apart is my perfectionist approach to my work. I pay close attention to every detail to ensure that my clients look and feel their absolute best. I also make sure to listen closely to my clients’ likes and dislikes, and I always tell them they’re welcome to ask for any changes until they’re completely happy with the result. I don’t let a client leave my chair unless they’re fully satisfied with their look.
I’m also known for creating a calm, stress-free experience. Weddings can be overwhelming, and I want my clients to feel relaxed and confident every step of the way.
What I’m most proud of is the strong relationships I’ve built with my clients. Many return for future events or refer me to their friends and family, and that’s something I truly cherish. Ultimately, I’m proud that my work contributes to making one of the most important days of someone’s life even more memorable.
Any big plans?
In the future, I’m looking forward to continuing to grow my business and refine my craft. One of my goals is to stay ahead of bridal trends and incorporate new techniques and products into my work to offer fresh, innovative looks.
I’m also excited about growing my services to other countries. I’ve met so many amazing, talented people from different places, and I would love to bring my expertise to new regions and work with clients from around the world.
Additionally, I’m looking forward to further developing my online presence, sharing more about my work, and connecting with even more clients. Ultimately, I want to continue building a brand that’s synonymous with trust, quality, and perfection.
As for big changes, I’m always open to new opportunities and partnerships that can help me grow both personally and professionally, and I’m excited to see where the future takes me.
