He brought attention to her gorgeous eyes and beautiful bone structure.
Zhuk was born in Brest, in Belarus. Even though none of his family members were in the beauty industry, he decided that his future lay there and began pursuing his dreams wholeheartedly. When he was just 18, he officially became a hairdresser and spent the next 5 years building up his experience in Brest.
However, he felt like he was stagnating. That’s why he decided to shake up his life. Zhuk moved to Moscow. He was so dead-set to improve his skills that he sold his car just so he could set his roots down in the Russian capital.
He went all-out in Moscow, and at one point he was even working three jobs as a hairdresser during the economic crash of 2008, according to 24smi.org. That’s when he began to fully live his philosophy of living to the max.
Now that’s the sort of discipline and energy that gets you right on the path of success. And that’s exactly what happened to Zhuk who rose to great heights in the beauty industry.
the main take away from all these pix is that the "after" photo shows the woman smiling.. It make anyone smile to see themselves looking nice.
I like this one. The person is still recognizable and the makeup doesn't look like a ton of putty.
Eventually, he opened up Zhuk.Studio and his very own spa, La Lubie. He’s won numerous awards for his skills and has hosted a handful of TV shows focused on beauty transformations.
Zhuk has extensive knowledge of the TV industry and was even a model at one point. He currently lives together with his wife, model Anastasia Belochkina, whom he married in 2019. They have a child together. Other than that, Zhuk keeps his private life private.
another one where you can tell the person is actually attractive already
I don't understand the comments that are saying that this post is telling women that they aren't good enough. Yes, putting on a sh*t load of makeup and telling people that they need to look like that is not okay, but have you considered what these women felt like after their makeover? Beauty is not just about looks, it's also a way to feel more confident and empower yourself. Look, she looks a lot happier in the after pic. Maybe it's the lighting, but who knows? If putting on some makeup makes the woman happy, then who are you to deprive her of that joy?
I don't know if it's me, but she looks kinda sad in these pictures. Something in the eyes.
I liked her better before, she was original and has a naturally pretty face. The after made her look like an ordinary tv weather girl or something.
This is all done with makeup (lots of shading) and hair change. And, what a great job.
She looks fine Sandra, BP is a place of quenching boredom, not body shaming.
Her hair is gorgeous in ash blonde. The new shade of makeup is much better. And now we can appreciate how lovely her eyes are.
Ok i know this will get downvotes but who replaced the girl with the doped up rabbit?
a makeover makes you whiter? I dunno maybe it's just the lighting...
the first one looks like Hailee Steinfeld in the first one. why would you change that?
She is beautiful in both but I like the volume to her hair in the transformation :)
How comes within two days we see a "embrace your natural grey hair" and yet another "stylist puts so much makeup on unconfident women that they cannot recognize themselves but meet questionable beauty standards" post?
Plus professional makeup, professional lighting, professional photographers...
Hair stylist: "Ok, let me slightly change your hair...and here is tons of make-up, no one will recognize you again, but at least you look artificial."
Pure garbage. Sorry there's no other way to say it. Take a purposely crappy photo of an unsmiling person on what's often a darker background for the first pic, then juxtapose that with a smiling person on a brighter background and then photoshop it and call it a comparison? How trash like this gets published is beyond me. It's dishonest.
Nothing more than glamour shots...great for a special occasion if the woman liked the look...but nothing more than a hair colour, bit of make up and some lighting...that is the standard going out look....
The “Power of a good stylist “??? More like the Power of Photoshop. 🙄. Seriously all these women had their “before “ taken looking like they just got out of bed Even so they were pretty enough before anything was done to them. Anyway why is only WOMEN in these kind of posts? Why not men?? And why women who are slim and pretty anyway? Why not women of all different sizes or wearing glasses??
So women are only attractive enough (for who are we talking about here?) when cakes in makeup and salon perfect hair? Now I love free haircut and wearing makeup but these constant conversations about how women can look better if they make an effort makes me scream
Yes, I too look better after professional hair/makeup/wardrobe/lighting/photoshop.
I like they way their eyes are all so much brighter in the "after".
Those haircuts are crazy ! They almost make them look like they also have nicer clothes, a full make-up and a smile on their faces !
Kind of funny how all the posts on here about how women should hide their real face under a ton of makeup seem to be made by men (or boys, maybe). On a site that also features stories about emancipation, equality, toxic masculinity, etc... But maybe people who still live in the 1950s should also be represented.
Yes, the hair looks better. But if you separated the pictures, I'd never be able to put the same people's pictures together. Make up alone would change their looks!!
...there are a lot of bitter bullies in the comments "why do they need...", "they were prettier before" " too much make up"...negative Nancy's shaming others for doing what they wanted to do...no where on the post does it says they were kidnapped and forced to under go makeovers, they did it because they wanted to, no one was harmed, get over it.
Makeup, makeup, makeup. Some of the hairstyles are meh. I notice these posts are always women or mostly women. Hmmm. I'd love to know what some of these women do for a living. I'm sure some of them are making a much larger contribution to the world with their work than with their looks.
All looking like a generic "pretty girl". Before: a Woman.After:Woman hosting a TVshow. Well.
I'm sick of these where the before picture they looked like someone just ran over their dog. I kind of like makovers of any sort (people, houses, gardnes) with before and after pictures, but only when done well and fairly. I came here to complain, then downvote. Did not read look at this one, other than the cover photo.
very pretty women before and after. May be unpopular opinion, but majority of them have suddenly open cleavage in "after" photos. hmmm... "embrace your body", "do not be ashamed" and all that jazz understandable, but let's be real here. Majority of women will not be wearing this way on everyday basis and in everyday situation. Beautiful hair, beautiful makeup, stylish dresses thats for sure, but hope ppl not thinking that cleavage and heavy makeup is "that's how woman really suppose to wear". I wish those "before" pictures would have been made with girls smiling :) it instantly would "light up the room" before any changes.
This is the worst sentence on this post and why we all hate these articles: “You can barely recognize some of these women and they look absolutely magnificent.” No. No, no, no. They looked magnificent before. You do not need to be altered by makeup and photoshop in order to look magnificent. That they are barely recognisable is the problem. Who decided they could only look magnificent by being made unrecognisable? Stop pushing this perspective BP.
Wonderful. Now all they need is a team of people to be at their houses every morning to style, makeup, & dress them.
Yes. It shows thay with lots of makeup, produced clothes and even Photoshop you can make women have the standard Hollywood look. But they don't look like real people and even don't look like themselves. In many cases they hide skin problems that could be worked out but are only masked here.
this is an unpopular opinion apparently but (hear me out lol) I really do not like how people are responding to this. at all. people who commented are saying that this post is bad because it causes these women and the women reading to feel insecure, since it's focused on their appearances. and yet people are also saying things like "prettier before," "makes her look artificial" and "not interesting." a bit hypocritical no? you're literally commenting on her appearance dudes. if a woman wants to look this way then let her! they're not doing this against their will lol. people who are saying this are kinda part of the problem. I'm not a fan of these posts but I dislike what people comment on them even more.
This artist enhances his clients ' own looks, rather than making them all look identical.
Why do the women look angry in the before pics? Some of the transformations are sorcery but i like looking at natural faces more.
