Meet the Artist: CosmoBabe.

I had to opportunity to interview this up and coming hair & makeup artist, Heather Marie. She is so passionate about her craft, showing devotion and pride in her work. This girl is a truly Profresh individual, giving a funky-fresh vibe on all that she does. I chose to feature her because she gives off an attitude, showing her craft is NOT a game; this is real, this is her; f*** the rest. I love that she thinks outside the box, using color and drama to make her looks unique. Only HM can bring her craft to light the way she does. Even though she is still in cosmetology school, she already is skilled in every sense of the way. The benefit of her still being in school, the hair cut/color/style is CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP. I'm talking $10 for a haircut. It's crazy especially because of the way you want out.

If you'd like to have Heather Marie do a masterpiece on you, email her at heather_roberts86@hotmail.com to schedule an appointment.
