Effects By Christina

Beauty – Pittsburgh

Having been in the beauty industry for seven years, Christina has had plenty of time to hone her skills. Ambitious and passionate about her work, Christina got her cosmetology license through part time technical education while in highschool. She graduated at age 18 and passed her state board examinations soon after. But being a licensed Cosmetologist wasn't enough - She still craved learning new things. Her portfolio impressed those at the Tom Savini Special Makeup Effects Program, earning her the IDEA scholarship into the school, where she earned her degree in Special Makeup Effects. ​ Since then, she has been involved in salons, theatre, film, photoshoots, weddings, and more, including being a published makeup artist with work featured in Stalletto Magazine. Her skills are diverse, from beauty makeup, to building wigs, all the way to body painting and prosthetic design.
