SFX that holds under pressure—and under lights.

Ariel Velasquez-Stevens brings licensed precision and camera-tested realism to every set. From subtle aging to full-character transformation, Ariel’s SFX services are designed for production demands, not cosplay trends.

She’s a licensed cosmetologist (CA + TX) and IMDb-credited pro, trained to legally cut, trim, sculpt, and style—which means she can do more than apply effects. She can shape the entire look from start to finish, adjusting on set with speed, sanitation, and continuity-conscious care.

Whether you need subtle bruising or a full burn simulation, Ariel shows up early, works fast, and delivers set-grade special effects that meet union expectations—even on non-union sets.
