Hello,
I'm Mervi Eskelinen!
An artist, nerd and sorcerer, dedicated to make world softer and better for everyone, and to get you to make more art. Make art, change the world!
A few months back I was contacted by Nina Pitkänen and Viola Riste about a website project. They wanted to create a site for listing, searching and finding Finnish beauty professionals.
The idea had born one summer day as the ladies had started to think how much they get questions about finding hairdressers, make-up artists and other beauty makers. They realized there's no one collective website to find them, only scattered blogs, sites and Facebook pages.
I was asked to join the team to create a simple to use site for the beauty professionals to easily list themselves and for the consumers easily find them.
Stylebook is now public* and new beauty professionals create profiles there every day. Basic profile is free and for a little fee a professional gets more features and more visibility on the site. In addition the beauty salons and such can get listed on the site.
For consumers the site is completely free. In order to rate and review the professionals, commenting the blog and taking part on monthly giveaways you must sign in to the site. It's very easy. Note that Stylebook is currently only in Finnish and it's aimed for Finnish professionals and their customers.
* Stylebook was closed in the end of the year 2014 due to personal reasons.
