Together we will make sure you look your absolute best on  your special day!

I’ve spent my whole life seeking personal approval.
As a kid I’ve always tried to be the best student (because I thought that was the only way of being a good daughter). I went to university to study tourism but quickly realized that that wasn’t my path in life. I simply couldn’t see myself spending my days behind a desk.


My grandmother was a hairdresser and I grew up at her parlor.


When I became a mother I started to put  my whole life into perspective and I felt a calling from the beauty industry. I gathered all the courage I had and went back to school. This time, beauty school! Almost simultaneously I started working at a beauty parlor where I stayed for 7 years and developed my full potential as a hairdresser and makeup artist.


This is where I started my journey as a bride hairdresser and makeup artist. Where I fully learned and became better and better everyday.


In 2020 I open my own beauty parlor where I do hair and makeup. But my passion is to make everyone feel absolutely special and beautiful on their wedding day.

Rita is a very lively person, very nice and extremely perfectionist. She, and her team, are exclent professionals and extremely good at what they do. She is worked fast and well while treating me like a princess. I’m still thankful for her work. I would recommend Rita Baptista to all future brides!
