This week on Who’s In My Glam Chair, I’m joined by someone who played such a huge role in my journey as a makeup artist — celebrity makeup artist Ash K Holm! Before building my own career in the industry, I spent a year and a half assisting Ash, so this episode is a very special full circle moment for me. We’re talking all things beauty, business, and what it really takes to make it as a celebrity makeup artist. From breaking into the industry and the unspoken rules of assisting to working with some of the biggest names in Hollywood, we’re sharing the behind the scenes realities of a career in glam. Ash also opens up about working some of the most famous women in the world, launching the Ash K Holm Institute, her favorite products, and the lessons she’s learned along the way. Whether you’re an aspiring makeup artist, a beauty lover, or just curious about what really goes on behind the glam, this episode is for you! Produced by Dear Media

This week on Who’s in My Glam Chair, we’re talking breakups, boys, and Birkins. I’m catching you up on everything happening in my life lately, from navigating dating after a breakup and fully embracing my Samantha Jones era to spontaneously booking a solo trip to London and buying myself my very first Birkin. We’re getting into the freedom of being single, dating without expectations, knowing when to move on, and why sometimes your friends need to tell you he’s just not that into you.

This week on Who’s in My Glam Chair, I’m joined by content creator Bran Flakezz for an inside look at the business of being an influencer. We’re pulling back the curtain on the creator economy and talking about everything people usually keep behind closed doors: how influencers actually make money, negotiating brand deals, management agencies, contracts, rates, and the realities of turning social media into a full time career. Bran has built a following not only through his hilarious content but also through his willingness to be completely transparent about the business side of influencing. We’re getting into why he chooses to share so much, the conversations the industry doesn’t want to have, and what aspiring creators should know before signing their first deal. Whether you’re a creator yourself or you’ve ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes of the influencer industry, this episode is for you! Don't forget to watch full episodes on YouTube.

Heather is spilling the behind the scenes secrets of Housewives glam, including how reunion looks can cost around $6,000, the pressure to look perfect on reality TV, and what really goes into getting camera ready. We’re also getting into her experience with a GLP-1, beauty standards, dating, her journey as a bestselling author, and what it’s really like being part of one of Bravo’s most talked about franchises.

What are celebrities actually getting done — and how much of what we see online is really natural? This week, I’m sitting down with board-certified Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Daniel Barrett, who also happens to be the surgeon I trusted with my own breast augmentation. We’re talking all things plastic surgery: from liposuction and breast augmentations to the subtle procedures celebrities may be getting that you’d never know about. Dr. Barrett breaks down what’s trending in plastic surgery right now, what’s worth the hype, what he would never recommend, and the biggest misconceptions people have about going under the knife. We also get into my own experience as his patient, what you should know before having surgery, red flags to watch out for, and how to find a surgeon you can actually trust — even if you don’t live in Los Angeles. Whether you’ve had plastic surgery, are considering it, or are just nosy about what everyone in Hollywood is really getting done, this episode is for you. What happens in the glam chair no longer stays in the glam chair. Produced by Dear Media.

Tana Mongeau has been sitting in my glam chair for almost seven years — and at this point, there’s very little we haven’t been through together. In this episode, Tana and I are taking it all the way back to how we first met, the early days of working together, and how our relationship went from makeup artist and client to something that feels a lot more like family. We talk about growing up together in this industry, the trust that comes with working so closely with someone for years, some of our most chaotic glam memories, and what our relationship looks like behind the photos and TikToks you see online. We also get into the ONE time we actually had beef (yes, it involves Coachella), how we’ve both changed over the years, and the stories that have never made it out of the glam chair… until now. Tana has spent hundreds of hours in my chair, but this might be our most honest conversation yet. Produced by Dear Media

Welcome to the very first episode of Who’s in My Glam Chair — except this time, I’m the one sitting in it. Ten years ago, I graduated high school, moved to LA, and started chasing a career in makeup with absolutely no idea where it would take me. Since then, I’ve gone from assisting some of the biggest makeup artists in the industry and working behind the scenes with celebrities like Ariana Grande, Zendaya and Emma Stone, to touring the world with Avril Lavigne, building years long relationships with clients like Tana Mongeau, and eventually creating a career online that I never could have planned for. In this episode, I’m taking you all the way back to the beginning — the jobs, the celebrities, the moments that changed everything, the things that didn’t go according to plan, and what a decade in this industry has actually taught me. If my career has taught me anything, it’s that there really is no such thing as an overnight success. So for the first time… welcome to my glam chair!! Produced by Dear Media.
