Name in full: Crystal Blattenberger

Current town: Martinsburg, PA

Expertise: Stylist, Colorist, Body Piercing, Permanent Cosmetics Technician, and Makeup Artist.

Education/Experience: I attended Altoona Beauty School for Cosmetology. I went the American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics in Texas for Permanent Cosmetics training. I also have attended several different hair shows, such as the Wella Academy, Las Vegas, Orlando, New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and makeup classes with Sebastian Trucco, along with hands on classes held at Tame Your Mane. Every hair show is different and a lot of new things are learned at each one. I've loved every hair show that I have been to. Continuing my education is very important and I feel you should never let an opportunity pass to further educate yourself. I have six years of experience total in cosmetology, with 4 ½ of them being at Tame Your Mane.

I love doing color and foils. I like performing different patterns using low lights and highlights. My favorite hair color to work with are Red heads! What I find most gratifying is making people feel better about themselves. Its the most rewarding part of my job!

Outside of work I love spending time with my son Van, my husband Adam, and our four legged friend, Brinx, the dog. I also like to shop, paint and cook. I enjoy watching Project Runway and the Steelers!!

My passion in life is to be a great mother to my son and to make all of my customers feel great about themselves.
