Up and Coming Musical Phenomenon Jolita Sakmanaite Calls Upon Crystal Agency for a Makeover

   

02_jolita_01_3      Jolita Sakmanaite, a future musical superstar, requested the Crystal Agency to create a few looks for her new website. Hailing from Lithuania, Jolita has a 4-octave vocal-range and is currently working on her new CD filled with R&B, pop, and dance tracks. In deciding on the direction of her musical image, Jolita drew inspiration from present and past pop icons Angelina Jolie, Paris Hilton, and Marilyn Monroe.
    Fashion stylist Tiffani Rae, hair stylist Darico Jackson, and make-up artist Uzmee Krakovszki collaborated on five look02_jolita_03_3s for the beauty. Darico worked miracles on Jolita’s hair. Her mohawk hairstyle was the show stopper, which was picked up by trend blog; “TG Public Image:Beauty-Health-Life”. Darico achieved the rocker look by, “first crimping all of her hair using Sebastian Shaper Plus Hairspray and Sebastian Laminates Concentrate Gel, and then back combing and shaping the hair into a mohawk style”.
Jolita was extremely satisfied with the finished product and had this to say, “I want to thank Crystal Agency for gathering such a great team! I love the pictures, everyone did an awesome job!”
