Life & Work with Elyse Bernardi

Today we’d like to introduce you to Elyse Bernardi.

Hi Elyse , please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.

As a California native, I have spent most of my life in Sonoma County. I had extensive training with Toni and guy for chemical services and Adam Federico from R+co lead education for haircutting. It is my passion to do what I love and make everyone feel like the best version of themselves, wow, expressing my creativity through the art of hair and make up. Check out my Instagram @Elyse.thefox

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The first couple of years working in assistant program and getting my skills really honed in, felt like an uphill battle, but once I really got a solid foundation on my skill set, everything seem to come very easily after that moment.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I’ve done some special training when it comes to the beauty industry, and I’ve had my hand in everything from specializing in chemical services /haircuts to photo shoot hair and make up for weddings, all kinds of genres within the beauty industry. I’ve done some really fun things where I’ve been featured in a wedding magazine and I’ve also been featured in a creative photo shoot a few billboards and TV shows and music videos. I’ve had a very fun time in my career.

Are there any important lessons you’ve learned that you can share with us?
The most important journey with my career has never been giving up on myself even after having a very extremely difficult day, there’s always tomorrow
