Our Wonderful Glow Up Team
I’m Alex, short for Alexandra. After 5 years of working at the Mac Cosmetics Store, doing makeup on the daily for all walks of life, from prom, to events & weddings, to special effects. I fell in LOVE with this industry! During that time, I attended school at Looks Academy for Medical Aesthetics, Laser Hair Removal & Makeup Artistry to prefect my craft. Around 2016, I decided to start my own mobile freelance business for all my amazing clients to have the experience of me coming to their home so they can GLOW UP for any event they desired.
With my love for creativity and artistry, I wanted to extend my services to add to the full GLOW UP transformation. In 2019, I attended a in depth course in LA from the one and only, “The Hair Diagram” all about how to hand make custom wigs and extensions. Now I specialize in customizing Glam & Medical Wigs for all my clients and absolutely LOVE MY JOB !

I am enjoying learning the ins and outs of running a business, while also continuing to grow with my skills in hairdressing. Hairstyling for me is not just about doing clients hair, but creating a safe place for them to share their stories. One thing about me is that I am always here to listen and love.

Hey everyone! My name is Emma.
I’m a Junior Stylist at Glow Up Beauty Lounge.
For as long as I can remember, I have always had a strong love for hair so I started working towards my dream of becoming hairstylist. In high school I completed the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program obtaining my level one hairstyling certificate. Shortly after graduation, I began working in salon and then went onto completing my certification at Niagara College. I always believed in continuing education throughout my career to ensure I’m giving my clients the best service I can and to continue to be inspired. Over the past 2 years, i’v been working behind the chair and absolutely love how i get to be creative & build strong relationships with my clients daily.
I can’t wait to see you at Glow UP!
