California
Megan Short
Hughson, California
Hello! My name is Megan Short, I have been a life long resident in the Central Valley of Ca, and a licensed cosmetologist for 14 years. I first began my beauty career as a hairstylist in 2008. In 2019 after taking a few year break to focus on my family I started following my passion in the ever evolving lash industry. I knew from the beginning I wanted to be able to offer something for everyone, lash lifts are a great alternative to lash extensions. Elleebana has mastered the industry of lash lifts, and in December of 2019 I was certified and the rest is history.

Karina Meza
Costa Mesa, California
Hello, my name is Karina Meza I am a Licensed Esthetician. I started my Esthetician journey at Career Academy of Beauty in Garden Grove September of 2020. While starting my esthetician I took my first Lash & Brow Course and that is where I fell in LOVE and I new I wanted to continue achieving perfect lifts. This is where I came across Elleebana, and took a course for the One Shot System. With time I knew that lash lifts are my favorite service to perform, I knew that I always wanted to continue innovating and making sure my clients get the best results with the best products. I enjoy being able to enhance my clients beauty and help them gain confidence. This is where I took the leap of faith and furthered my education and took the Elleebana Elleeplex Lash and Brow Lamination Course.
