My name is Jocelynn Tyson . I’m makeup artist in the south of Alabama . Not only am I a makeup artist , I’m also deaf with a cochlear implant . I started my makeup journey in 2015 . I was self taught watching YouTube. Before I began my makeup journey , I was in the 6th grade wearing mascara , eyeliner , lipgloss until I got to college wanted to learn more of makeup and the beauty industry . Where I’m at today , that I’m so grateful through the process of this makeup journey had me on the chokehold of its ups and downs . I’ve done fashion shows , clients , models , etc . To make other women feel beautiful regardless they still gone be beautiful with or without makeup . It’s not gone stop me from loving makeup when I’m put so much energy and passion to it .
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It hasn’t been the best smooth road . There are times I wanna give up . There are times I go through depression and other things I’ve been dealing with . However , I prayed and prayed that I wanna do better and be better to make sure that giving up is NOT an option. My family and friends advice always keep me on toes . Other makeup artists helping me lead the way to the makeup industry to know I love makeup so much more than anything .

I specialize in soft beat , glitter , neutral , bridal , etc. I’m known for self taught makeup artist and also certified as well completing certification as a makeup artist . I’m proud of how much progress I’ve made behind my brushes .
How do you think about happiness?
What makes me happy is makeup of course because I’ve driven so much to it . Make progress around my work . I take criticism as well to make sure I work on it the next time and go with the flow while doing it . I don’t want myself being define as a deaf woman alone because I can do so much more like any other deaf person can do. I used to be so insecure and not fitting into something that I can feel love with a hobby and turn it to a hustle .
