Kendra Pagoria, Licensed Esthetician, Laser Technician, and Makeup Artist, graduated from Bradley University with a degree in Radio/Television Broadcasting. After graduating, she moved to Los Angeles and worked in reality television for several years. It was during that time she realized her love for skin care and makeup. Kendra moved back to the Illinois Valley and graduated from Midwest College of Cosmetology, and she has been a licensed esthetician since 2010. In 2017 she started “Makeup by Kendra” where she specializes in airbrush makeup for brides and bridal parties. Kendra took a few wonderful years off to be a stay-at-home mom and is now very excited to be part of the team here at NNMD. She has advanced training in chemical peels, dermaplaning, facials, microneedling and medical-grade skin care. She is also a Laser Technician and certified Hydrafacialist. Kendra aims to provide her clients with relaxing, yet effective services. She believes everyone is beautiful in their own way, and the most rewarding part of her job is seeing a client look in the mirror and see their own beauty. Kendra enjoys spending her free time with her husband and two children, reading, bike riding, water skiing, traveling, and trying new Pinterest recipes.
