A rare combination of both talent and drive, Cheng Tan has been a fixture in the beauty scene in Southern California for many years.

A veteran of several New York Fashion Week events, Cheng has styled for notable designers like Elene Cassis, L'wren Scott, Philip Lim and Zac Posen to name a few. She continues to develop her artistry being one of the select few top hair stylist in the world in the L'Oreal Professionel Portfolio Artist Team.
