HEY I’M KARISSA!

Hi loves! My name is Karissa O’Hanlon and I am a makeup artist and hairstylist based in Southern California! A little background on my journey to becoming a professional stylist.For as long as i can remember i have been doing makeovers on anyone i could,even my sweet father! At 5 years old I set up makeup appointments in my new cool barbie journal and was ready for business!

After graduating from Cal Poly Pomona with an Apparel Merchandising and Management degree( Go Broncos!!) I was working a 9-5 job that I absolutely dreaded, so I decided to make a change and follow what I was truly passionate about MAKEUP! It was such a big and scary risk and now I am proud to say it was the best decision I ever made! I am so grateful to wake up everyday and connect with all my beautiful clients!

Now you're probably wondering who is this girl behind the makeup brush?! At any event I can usually be found playing with some new furry friends! I am a proud dog momma to the cutest brat named Charlie! Also one of my favorite parts of being on site is meeting all my clients' sweet pets that make Charlie jealous when I come home HAHA! Also I am an absolute Starbucks lover to where now my local starbucks knows not just me but also Charlie! Catch me with my grande black iced teas always! I am a big foodie! I love trying new places and traveling to find the best food spots, you can call me Guy Fieri!

If you have made it this far thank you so much for stopping by! Cant wait to meet you!

“OMG Karissa!!! The makeup turned out so unbelievably gorgeous!!! It was a perfect balance between it being natural and having makeup. When you can’t tell where the makeup, that’s when you know you GOT IT! Definitely will be referring you to my clients and I look forward to working with you again!”
