James’ Past

Before James became popular, he used to be into art. James didn’t have a passion for art but when he applied for beauty school, he styled hair. Simultaneously, he got into using vine. Originally there were a bunch of cringey vines from when he was young. Nevertheless, he still managed to get to the top. James would mostly practice makeup on other people. Once James was committed to being a makeup artist, his parents helped him transform the basement into a makeup studio.
