Today we’d like to introduce you to Lina Leikam.

Hi Lina, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
Originally I’m from Germany, lived 3 years in Cleveland Ohio and now in Los Angeles, The beauty industry in Germany is just not the same as in the US, the USA is the place where lots of creators, entrepreneurs and visionaries come together, dare to be bold and support each other like I’ve never experienced somewhere else. I’ve graduated from a barber school, worked as a hairdresser in the German capital, Berlin and had a fun time but always knew that’s not what I want for the rest of my life – there must be more thrill!

To expand my know-how and Industry expertise, I’ve spend months at the exclusive Beni Durrer Makeup school to receive an additional official diploma of Hair & Makeup Artistry.
My training with Swiss celebrity makeup artist Beni Durrer shaped my philosophy: every makeup look tells a story, and I love approaching every look with this story in my mind. Whether it’s crafting an ethereal bridal look, a bold editorial statement, or an unforgettable cinematic character, there are no limits to my creative ideas and solutions to bring out the best in each look!

I’ve spent over 13 years working across film, television, editorial, and commercial projects. I thrive in fast-paced environments and love working with directors, photographers, and artists to bring visions to life. This work environment made me learn so much about people, places and life! I do not want to miss all those impactful experiences and couldn’t be more inspired to keep working in this field.
