Behind the Artist
Raina Olson
I am a Philadelphia native who followed her heart to the island of St. Croix five years ago. What started as a bold move turned into the happiest chapter of my life-building a beauty career in the Caribbean, serving both local clients and destination brides who come to the Virgin Islands for their most unforgettable moments.
When I'm not glamming up a bridal party, you'll usually find me in the water. I love scuba diving and becoming a mermaid, spending time with my furry crew of dogs and cats. The ocean is where I recharge, reconnect, and find creativity for the work I love.
One of the greatest parts of this journey is sharing it with my 23 year old daughter who lives here and is currently apprenticing under me while earning her cosmetology license. Watching her grow in this industry and build her own path has been one of my proudest joys.
St. Croix is home now -- a place where beauty, nature, and artistry come together -- and I am grateful every day that I get to share that with my clients.
