Meet Kateryna Cherkasenko | Makeup artist & Hairstylist

We had the good fortune of connecting with Kateryna Cherkasenko and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kateryna, do you have any habits that you feel contribute to your effectiveness?
There are several habits that I believe contribute to my success. First and foremost, I embrace the power of planning. By carefully mapping out my goals and breaking them down into smaller, achievable steps, I am able to maintain a clear and focused path towards the bigger picture. Additionally, I adopt a long-term perspective. Instead of solely fixating on immediate results, I understand the significance of patience and perseverance. It’s the journey that truly matters, and by taking small, deliberate steps, I steadily progress towards my ultimate aspirations.
Moreover, my appreciation for aesthetics plays a pivotal role. I find beauty in the world around me and in the goodness of people. This positive outlook fuels my motivation and inspires me to seek excellence in everything I do.
Overall, these habits—planning, a long-term perspective, small incremental progress, and a penchant for aesthetics—have been instrumental in shaping my path to success.

What should our readers know about your business?
I had my own studio in Ukraine before the war. It was the coolest place in Kyiv, and those who worked with me always stayed and we brought in masters from different countries. It was such a fantastic and soulful place that people kept coming back and choosing to stay only with me. We collaborated on various projects. However, due to the war in Ukraine. I am now starting everything from scratch in Miami. I have a wealth of experience and a strong drive to succeed. Building my business to where it is today was not easy. I faced numerous challenges along the way, including the upheaval caused by the war, which forced me to leave behind what I had built. However, I overcame these challenges by staying resilient and determined. I focused on adapting to new circumstances, exploring opportunities in a different location, and leveraging my skills and experience to rebuild my business from the ground up.
Through this journey, I have learned valuable lessons about resilience, adaptability, and the importance of staying true to my passion and vision. I have also realized the significance of building strong relationships and nurturing a supportive community around me.
What sets me apart from others is my unique blend of skills, experiences, and my unwavering dedication to providing exceptional service. I am proud of the reputation I have built and the trust I have earned from my clients. I am excited about starting anew in Miami, bringing my expertise to a new audience and creating a positive impact through my work.
I want the world to know that my brand and story are fueled by passion, creativity, and a commitment to excellence. I am determined to create an exceptional experience for my clients, offering them top-notch service and the opportunity to indulge in the artistry and soulfulness that my studio embodies. I am ready to embark on this new chapter and make a mark in the Miami business community, sharing my talent, experience, and dedication with the world.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I have a deep passion for attending concerts featuring world-renowned artists and witnessing various sporting events.These experiences inspire me and provide the motivation I need for my work. One particular recommendation I have is to witness the sight of free dolphins while on a yacht. It is truly a captivating and uplifting experience.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to dedicate my shoutout to my daughter. Since her birth, I have strived to instill in her the importance of self-realization and independence. I have encouraged her to pursue what truly brings her joy and to strive for success in those endeavors. Her perseverance, passion, and determination inspire me every day. Through her, I have come to realize that my own self-realization and independence also play a significant role in my success. I am deeply grateful to her for pushing me to become a better version of myself and continuing to be a source of inspiration in my life.
