Maria Alejo

Welcome to my canvas my name is Maria, I'm 19 years old ,I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic I came to the United States when I was ten years old, coming here was a big change for me leaving my country and part of my family to come here for a better future and more opportunities. I have been influenced by the beauty industry since I was little, my mom is a hairdresser, I spent most of my childhood in my mom's salon watching her make other women feel and look beautiful, I learned a lot from her. I knew that being part of the beauty industry was for me since I was little, I used to do my own makeup and hair. Growing up, I learned how to do my hair, makeup, nails, eyebrows, and take care of my skin. It's amazing the end result and how beautiful I feel afterwards and I learned about my feature and what I can do to make it look even better. My main goal is to become a cosmetologist and make others feel good about themselves.
