About Melissa Berry, Aesthetician Specialist
My name is Melissa Berry. It's so good to meet you! My path to becoming a holistic esthetician wasn't a straight one. After graduating with my Bachelor's of Business Administration in 2006, I began what I thought was my dream career at a large investment firm. Within four years, I was dreading every day I went to work. The corporate world was just not for me. So I had to step back and reassess myself. I had always loved make up and creating make up, so I took a class at a local cosmetology school. This school also taught an esthetics course. I found it fascinating and enrolled, and 6 months later I was holding my new license. A huge move and a few spas later, I was finally ready to go out on my own, delivering personalized holistic skin experiences. I absolutely love my days at work now, and it doesn't even feel like work. I love when women walk out of my room, so happy with how their skin looks and feels. I love all the smells of the herbal and botanical products I get to use. I love that my industry is constantly innovating and discovering new advancements. Practicing on my own has given me to opportunity to create my own skin care line and my own treatments. My philosophy on skin care is that a whole body and whole earth approach is the best course to long term transformation. I have found that using treatments that respect your skin's barrier and health result in better, glowing radiance than treatments that are too aggressive and destroy the careful balance your skin needs. I have also found plant-based active ingredients elicit a more synergistic life to your skin, with fewer unwanted side effects. If this sounds like someone you'd like caring for your beauty, I look forward to getting to know you better.
