This year has been the busiest year yet with grad makeup and hair appointments with The Studio Beauty Team. We have trekked throughout the lower mainland of greater Vancouver as well as packed both levels of The Studio by MikaDoesMakeup for our lovely young grad girls. Our grads usually opt for detailed hair updo’s to tousled curled down-do’s and makeup to make any boy melt on the most important day of their teenage life! Below – Kym Davidson, Faye Smith and Yana Mozhchil of The Studio Beauty Team pamper a group of high school grad girls to look and feel their best for their big day ahead.
