Maia Beauty

Hi! I’m Paula Alves, a Brazilian hairstylist and makeup artist specializing in weddings, photoshoots, and other special occasions. Born and raised in Brazil, I have been living in the San Francisco Bay Area for the last four years, and I am excited to bring and provide my services directly to you.

I discovered my passion for makeup in 2013 when I would practice on myself, my sister, and other family members and friends. Since then, I decided to dedicate my life to studying and understanding the world of beauty. My love for makeup and hair comes from my desire to boost other women’s self-esteem and self-confidence through their natural beauty and image.
