Raven Elizabeth is a hair stylist / makeup enthusiast in NYC. After completing half of her cosmetology training in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida in 2000, she did hair for family and friends while pursuing a career in the weight loss industry. In 2006 she realized that the beauty business was calling her home and she completed her courses to become a licensed hair stylist. She now styles at Hair & the City in Manhattan and writes the beauty blog "primped & painted" from home. "I love everything about the beauty industry and I love showing women how to up their looks without downing their bank account. I moved to NYC from Florida with one goal in mind: Become a force to be reckoned with in the beauty biz. I am on my way." -Raven Elizabeth
