    Ashley August

    ✨I’m a native of Northern California. For the past six years, I have been turning hair dreams into reality. I started as an assistant to several stylists, learning various techniques. Since childhood, I've loved playing with hair & educated myself on caring for all hair types, especially curly hair. I earned my hairstylist license while in high school. I specialize in cuts, color, highlights, balayage, and styling for any occasion, making your hair dreams come true.

    ✨I’m a professional makeup artist with experience across beauty, television, editorial, and bridal work. I started my career at Bare Minerals, where I learned the foundations of natural, skin-focused makeup, and later worked for a national and international news station, gaining expertise in TV and film artistry. I’ve collaborated with photographers in print and editorial settings and had the opportunity to work with the San Diego Charger Cheerleaders. For the past several years, I’ve specialized in bridal makeup, blending my creative skill with my medical background in dermatology to provide a science backed approach to skin prep and client care. 💛

    ✨With 24 thrilling years as a makeup artist for celebrities on red carpets, fashion shows, and the Oscars, I bring passion and artistry to every project. Graduating from Paul Mitchell the School in San Diego in 2005, I pursued my love for hair with dedication. My strong background in education fuels my excitement for teaching others. After my mother, also a makeup artist and hairstylist, lost her battle with cancer, I found solace in honoring her memory by founding Pistolas Beauty and Salon 💛
