About
My entire life has revolved around creative expression, so much so that I decided to make it my profession.
So how did a girl from a small village in Zeeland become an independent hair and make-up artist?
I started my career by completing an All-round Hairdresser’s study and various make-up courses in the south of the Netherlands. However, I quickly understood I needed to move to the big city to pursue my dreams as a professional hair and make-up artist.
I continued developing my skills by completing the three-year
All-round Grimeur study at ROC van Amsterdam. During my studies, I had my first experiences with smaller hair and make-up jobs on the side. Now I’m proud to have started my own business, where I can help various clients independently. Next to my freelance jobs I work as an Studio Artist at Madame Tussauds Amsterdam and as an all-round hair and make-up artist for musicals from Stage Entertainment Netherlands and other companies.
So far, I’ve had the opportunity to pursue my passion in different areas such as fashion, theater and film and am always looking forward to the next challenge. I specialise in; hairstyling, makeup, small special effects makeup and face painting.

Ik ontmoette Michelle toen ik nog af en toe model stond. Zij was de enige in al die jaren die de foundation echt mooi aanbracht zonder dat ik oranje of cakey werd. Ze gaf me goede tips voor mijn dagelijkse make-up en was oprecht, lief en erg gezellig. Voor mij dan ook een no brainer om haar voor onze grote dag te vragen.
Roos, via the perfect wedding
