Missy was fascinated by the transformative power of makeup from the time she first saw her grandmother apply lipstick without a using a mirror. At that moment she was hooked, so it’s no surprise she’s made a career helping others put their best faces forward. Years of work, and training, in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles and Europe has helped her perfect her craft and also gave her experience managing salons. Lucky for us, her training and natural eye for the perfect look make a fantastic mash up which fits in perfectly at Green Twig.
