Hi!!! It’s Me!!
Just a girl who loves making people feel good inside and out!
Hi friends!!! Here’s a little about myself…
I am Marisa Renee, a mom, a hairstylist and a Disney obsessed mermaid and now a salon owner!
First and foremost, I am a mommy!! I joined motherhood when I welcomed my first baby, a beautiful little mermaid princess, Ariel Zora Kairi (special prize if you can tell me the inspirations for her name) into the world in December 2018. She is the light of my life and my everything!
I started my journey in the beauty industry long before I went to school.. dabbling with at home nail kits, doing friends hair (cuts and color), playing with makeup while following influencers on YouTube. It wasn’t until 2010 when my husband said I should follow my passion.. that led me to apply to go to school at John Paul Mitchell The School. And after 10 1/2 months, 1600 hours, meeting some of the best people I know.. I got my Cosmetology license on March 28, 2011!
I have worked with many colors lines so far in my career such as Aveda, Matrix, Paul Mitchell, Pravana, Wella, Pulp Riot, Schwartzkopf and Alfaparf.. just to name a few.
I love doing all things hair color.. from an all over color change to balayage to a full head of vibrant rainbow hair!
I am self taught in hand-tied hair extensions, I love the way extensions can transform the hair as well as bring joy to my clients.
I love makeup! The dream of being a MUA to the stars is what drove me to cosmetology school.. However, makeup wasn’t a big subject point in cosmetology at the time, so I continued my education and went to school to for esthetics. . There I learned more about skin and makeup and after another 600 hours, I became a certified Esthetician!
Also, I am a Disney loving mermaid! I love Disney so much that you’ll never not see or be
surrounded by Disney magic when you’re in my company. And yes, I am a mermaid.. I have swam in my local mermaid bar, The Dive Bar (located in Downtown Sacramento) and it was the best experience ever!! To see some footage, head to my TikTok page. Every year you’re bound to see me at the California Mermaid Convention. (Link for more info on next slide!)
And lastly, July 2025, I took the leap and accepted an opportunity to take over a closed salon and make it my own… and then The Pearl on Park was born!
I’m definitely looking forward to this new chapter and adventure in my career! So many fun and exciting things coming!
It’s important, especially in today’s world, to be surrounded by people and things in your life that lift you up + encourage you to greatness!
