Creative Makeup and Hairstyle by Rachael Beauty

I created this look from inspiration of a youtube tutorial on face masks. I had never done one. This look was for my senior project at Aveda Institute Los Angeles which I graduated in 2011.  I had so much fun. I love just going with the creative flow bouncing off vibes of the model as well. This was fun and playful. I wish I would have brought my own makeup though. I had to use what was there. So no gel eyeliner and lashes. I used synthetic hair and curled and teased her own natural hair.

Pedicure. Girl, Keep them toes in check!!!!!!!!!!!

Million dollar red! What's your fave color at the nail shop for your toes?  I kinda go by seasons sometimes.

Pedis are MANDATORY. And living in SOCAL that means all year round. We have like no winter. Thanks Polar vortex! Seriously! But on the serious note my go to color is magenta. I love a hot pink! French manicure is cute too if my nails are long enough. Gotta have pretty toes. No man will dig your crusty piggies! I also love designs on them. Even if it's just polka dots. It's just adorbz. Treat yourself.

Love & xoxo,
Rachael Beauty :)

How to get free business cards with your Facebook profile

Two Facebook profiles means two boxes of business cards

Want an easy way to print out memorable, fast and free business cards? Well you probably have Facebook open in an another browser. Facebook and Moo.com have teamed up together to give every user their first pack of 50 business cards free through the website.

You do have to pay for shipping. Which is not a big deal. These cards are beautiful!

Make sure you have the right avatar you want on your profile, as well as the correct info you want to show up on your business card. All this data is carried over automatically to make the card. You can edit it in Moo once you are directed there but it just makes things easier.

Also make sure you have all the photos you want to print on your business cards in your cover photos. You can always remove the ones you don't. I learned the hard way by going back a few times because I didn't have things exactly how I wanted it. 

I have already order my first pack of free moo cards from facebook. I am almost done with them. I will order another pack when I need a replacement. Here are the easy steps to take to get your first pack of free cards.

They took a couple of weeks. You can pay for faster shipping if you need it.

Here I am editing my cards. It looks just like my FB profile.

This is the back for the business card. You can add whatever you want. I put my website, twitter and a quote.


4 Easy Steps:
Click on the About section. 
Hoover over the Contact Info business card. 
Tap on Print and Create!

You can login using your FB account to save and also have a returning account to order more cards or different items they have offered on the site. I have been using Moo for cards for years. I want to order some stickers.

That is one way to get free social media business cards that you simply pay shipping on.

I will show you two more ways. I love freebies. Who doesn't?

Let me know how you liked your new fb biz cards! :)

Love&Beauty,

Minimal Folio portfolio iPhone app

I just put together a portfolio app for my free lance & on location hair styling. I organized my work into columns as best as I could. It can sync up with your DropBox folders or your photo library on your phone. Everything is drag and drop and slide gestures. You can also zoom in. Plenty of tutorial help within the app as well. Looking forward to buying the new iPad to showcase my work properly on a tablet device. Making it larger & easier to see.

I am going to test out more apps the for the iPad. I think it's important to accept and embrace the digital technology we have available. Beauty is far behind in a leading example in that area. It really should be a higher priority.

I used Minimal folio iPhone app. It's $.99 cents. I think it's a great start and very reasonable. Tutorials are available.

Who is Rachael Beauty?

Photo by Albany Katz

A few days ago on Facebook someone asked me which girl I was on my profile. He couldn't tell right away because I had so many pictures. Different pictures of different models and of myself and friends. At first I was wondering how is it not obvious who I am from my profile? Then I began searching around my pictures and albums. It did seem a bit confusing because I am not branding myself enough on my profile! I want it clear and direct about who I am online in every way possible  If someone can't tell what my profession is and they have access to my personal and professional pictures then I need to change the way I present myself online. I am glad he mentioned this, as no one else has. He wasn't in the beauty business, which is why it is even more important to me. 

Mackenzie's avant-garde hair and makeup look by Rachael Beauty

So, let me introduce myself properly. I am Rachael Beauty, a creative hair stylist/designer from Los Angeles, California. I specialize in make overs, updos, styling, blow-outs, haircuts, & editorial, avant-garde looks. I am dedicated to my craft and approach beauty with a degree of professionalism and tact. I enjoy working together as a team.  I like to achieve the best results with technique and style. Not taking short cuts, even if it means it takes a little longer. The end result is far more superior than if I simply cut corners. No pun intended. :)

Pilar's contemporary victorian look. I used a wand curler then pinned to set. 

Finished with hair spray and teased.

I graduated from Aveda Institute Los Angeles in the summer of 2011. I am a licensed cosmetologist for the state of California. I am open-minded on techniques and I love learning and trying new things. I have a great sense of humor and am very social and people friendly. I love to network online and in person. I have many goals and plans for my future in the hair & beauty business.

I used 3 different colors of extensions and braided and pieced together as a semi crown on top. 

I take my work seriously and I love what I do. I love beauty. 

If you would like to check out my portfolio you can do so at: RachaelBeauty.com

There you will find various projects, photo shoots that I have been apart of. If you would like to contact me for a project of your own, there is a contact section on the website.

I also excel at social media. Brand presence, visibility, audience and community development are my specialties. If you have no idea what that means and just have a Facebook account to promote your business then you probably need to talk to me. The internet is a shift in communication and it isn't going anywhere. 

I am new in creating my brand for Rachael Beauty. I know exactly what I have to do. Most requires trial and error of various techniques online. It's a learned habit that comes gradually over time. 

Get to know your clients, listen to their needs and respond in a friendly way; not as someone simply trying to sell them something. Stand out. Care. The rewards will come.

Trying not to sound too much like a résumé, but my work is my passion and I love making beautiful things come to life. Have a lovely day and thank you for reading. 

Love&etc,

Rachael Beauty

Rachael Beauty Facebook Timeline

Here is a screenshot of my logo as my cover photo in the new Facebook Timeline.

I had to resize it slightly. I love the new look and features. It will take some time to get used to it but overall a redesign was well needed. Have you changed yours over, yet?
