About Rachel:
What makes your artistry unique? I bring out everyone’s natural beauty. Much of this industry chases certain looks, but every person has their own unique features. Bringing out each client’s unique beauty is what makes them feel their best.
What inspires you? My hardworking immigrant parents, who left a communist country to build a better life for their children. They showed me how to work hard for what I have and taught me that I can achieve anything I set my mind to.
Style icons: Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner

Specialty: Half-up, half-down hairstyles. I’ve loved styling my own hair since about fourth grade, started styling my friends’ hair in middle school, and always knew I loved making people feel beautiful.
