Aloha loves to connect with her clients and is not shy to any client request. In her own words: “I love the personal experience I have with people. The conversations, the connection and the smile of love afterwards. I try not to be too proud to educate someone else in the art of beauty, to be therapist and someone for them to confide in is a real blessing. Building trusting relationships is key. I love that we get the chance to make someone’s day, that feeling that we were able to be a part of one of the most significant days of their lives. That we get to meet so many people and in so many ways touch their lives. What may be just another day for us is the biggest moment for them.”
