Linda Burmeister | Hair Stylist & Makeup Artist

It is often the case in life that what we desire the most is also what comes easiest for us. In professions, one often finds they have an easier time pursuing the role they are passionate about than the job they think they “should” do, or the job that seems to be the most “responsible” choice. Such has been the case for hair and makeup artist Linda Burmeister. 

| BACKGROUND

Before her training to become a hairdresser at 26, Linda was working with teenagers who had addiction issues and personality disorders. Eventually, the stress and mental pressure proved more than she wanted to handle, so she decided to turn her passion into a career. This strong-willed decision was the turning point of her life, as being a hairdresser and make-up artist was her ultimate dream job. Linda’s work is now filled with variety: from working in the salon, to being on film sets, to traveling the world. 

Linda Burmeister is a born creative, singing since childhood and indulging in different forms of art throughout her life. Her current art form features fun mixtures of natural and nude tones, to extravagant and colorful hues.
