3 Instagram Accounts to Learn from

Instagram is growing fast and furiously, and I'll bet that many of your clientele or the clientele that you want to attract is on Instagram. If you haven't dived head first into this social media platform, there's no better time than the present. These are my three favorite beauty feeds that are offering consistent, quality content to their audience on Instagram. 



1// SNMAKEUP

This is a Phoenix based makeup artist that works with a lot of photographers, so she has a beautiful curated collection of images and behind-the-scenes shoot peeks that keep her feed on point. There are also a lot of great selfies that keep her readers connected to her personally and see how she interprets beauty trends on herself.



2//Jen Atkins Hairstylist

This is a stylist to the stars, but any stylist can easily replicate her instagram strategy and take iphone photos of your clients post-style and write in the products you used on them with an app like Phonto or Rhonna Designs.



3// Drybar

One of my favorite beauty brands due to their brand quality control and consistence and unique, quirky personality. Their instagram feed is curated to appeal to their ideal client.

Tools + Tips | Rhonna Designs App



Full disclaimer: I am on Rhonna's Design Team so I obviously love everything about this app, and you will too. You can add text on top of your photos and even some fun festive designs. The app is designed for personal use only so you can't take the images and create a logo with the designs unless you purchase a commercial license; but you can spread some creativity and cheer with your images of your clients or your own personal images! At $1.99, it's the best investment ever.  The best thing about Rhonna Designs App is the free video tutorials you can watch to get you started. You can find the Rhonna Designs video tutorials here.
