Quick Facts
Languages : English, Portuguese
Beauty Background : It all started when friends and family asked me to do their hair once... and then for every occasion after. I officially began my career in 2012 in Brazil, where I earned my degree in Aesthetics and Cosmetics. After moving to the U.S., I continued pursuing my passion for beauty by apprenticing at a salon for three years before becoming a licensed stylist. Since then, I’ve worked both behind the chair and on location, specializing in weddings and events. Before joining CM Pro, I spent seven years as a lead stylist for a prominent local team. With more than a decade of experience, I love helping clients feel confident, radiant, and completely themselves.
Career highlight : The defining moment of my career was leaving my home country to commit to my growth and artistry fully.
Current favorite bridal beauty trends : Hair with soft texture & natural movement.
Top three products/tools I can’t live without : EBIN Wonder Ponytail Bon Freeze Spray, Osis+ Soft Dust Volume Powder, ghd Flat Iron
Guilty pleasures : Saying "one mored bobby pin..." knowing there are already 47 in there. Adding things to my cart and never actually buying them. Stalking Zillow listings for homes I’ll never buy.

MEET MELISSA

She called me before my trial to go over what my hair vision was for my wedding day, sent me links for quality hair extensions, and listened so well the day of the trial and wedding and the end result was more than I could've ever hoped for! She also did both my sister's (my maids of honor) hair and they were just as pleased as I was. I would a thousand times
recommend Melissa to any of my friends or family getting married - she made me feel and look like such a princess!
“Melissa was absolutely amazing.”

Thompson | Bride
I absolutely loved my hair and it stayed in place all day and night! The other girls loved theirs as well. I wouldn't have changed anything! Thank you so much for everything!
“Melissa is amazing.”
Kacey | bride
We were incredibly grateful for their expertise and taking such good care of each person's individual hair and make-up style goals. I had a lot of happy tears on my wedding day and my make-up stayed perfect the entire time! My bridal party and I also danced for hours and all our hair styles stayed in place all night!
