Born and raised in Japan at the age of 18 after graduation from high school, Hiroko made her decision to continue her education in the US. She studied Interior Design at Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY, where she pursued her artistic talent & passion in Art. Years after relocating to Los Angeles, she chose to start a career as a makeup artist and hairstylist. Her artistic background and experience give her all the ideas and techniques for applying makeup and styling hair.
