    I had my engagement photoshoot in San Diego in Balboa Park in January. I was traveling from OC to…read moreSan Diego, so it was important for me to find a mua in SD. Shelby was so quick to respond to my inquiry, she was able to fit me in her schedule, as she was already booked with a morning appointment and my photoshoot was in the afternoon. Shelby's studio was stunning and so clean! I've never gotten my makeup professionally done so well in my life. I was able to show Shelby a few inspo pics and she worked wonders on my face! I was so incredibly happy with the outcome from her use of high quality products and overall knowledge of her craft, Shelby delivered! Thank you for such a great experience, Shelby seriously ladies, do not hesitate to book with her, you won't be disappointed!

I love the photos posted on yelp as it was my style so I followed my gut and took a chance. I'm so beyond happy I did. Shelby did a trial for me when I was in San Diego a few months ahead of the wedding along with my welcome dinner makeup and wedding makeup for me and the entire family! She did such an incredible job in making my makeup looking glowing and natural. Some of my family has never warn makeup and she did such a phenomenal job of making everyone look so natural. We all got such compliments on our makeup. Shelby is such a professional to work with along with being easy to get along with, cool and kind. I wish I lived closer to use her more often, but she's an incredible at what she does and I highly recommend her!

    I chose Brittany based off her reviews and I am SO GLAD I did! I am not a huge makeup enthusiast so…read moreI was looking for an expert who was versatile, could do natural glam, a soft and romantic look, and most importantly had good vibes. Brittany exceeded my expectations. She was responsive, kind, calming, affordable, and went above and beyond to make everything perfect. I did the trial run (no regrets) and Brittany came to my home. We went over makeup options, different hair options, and veil placement options. She asked lots of questions to make sure I was comfortable with everything, her skincare prep was fabulous and my makeup looked great! She spent the time to go over each step and customized my look based on my feedback. She's a true natural and was able to take my confusing feedback and turn it into exactly what I was envisioning. On the wedding day, Brittany was such a calm and happy presence in the room. My whole family loved her. We changed a few things we had gone over at the trial, and she remembered everything! Even things I had forgotten mentioning. That meant a lot to me. Brittany truly cares about her clients and it's clear she takes her job seriously. Most people in the wedding industry just treat you like another number but Brittany was the only person in the whole process who treated me like me. Brittany also did my 13 year old's hair and makeup for the wedding. I was worried about her looking too mature but Brittany did her makeup so perfectly, it just highlighted her features in such a soft, natural way... I was honestly speechless. I'm an anxious worrier but I never had to give a second thought to my hair/makeup/veil. Brittany added body glow and left behind a little touch up kit that had everything I needed. She even helped my mom with her makeup and lashes and squeezed in a friend who needed last minute hair and makeup services. My hair and makeup lasted all night, looked fabulous, and I felt like a star. I would hire Brittany again in a heartbeat to do anything makeup or hair related. She is truly an expert in her craft and her passion shows. In all the crazy hecticness of the wedding world - Brittany was the one of my favorite parts.

    Very accommodating, pleasant, and did a beautiful job! Makeup looked great all night.read more

    I went here in February for a haircut and partial highlight, and based on my experience do not…read morerecommend them. I received partial highlights that were very brassy and looked grown out the second I left the salon. I spent the day of my appointment really disappointed and bought blue shampoo to try to brighten the tone, which didn't work. I decided to call the salon and the owner called back and had me come in to fix it. I drove 30 minutes back to the salon, and when I got there I explained what I didn't like, and the stylist asked me what I wanted to do. Since I'm not the stylist I reiterated that I wasn't sure but explained the problem. He did a quick toner and dried my hair, and I felt much better. The next evening I washed my hair and all the toner came out and my hair was back to where it started. At that point I didn't feel comfortable going back because my concerns were given such a temporary fix and weren't taken seriously. An experienced stylist should know that toner wouldn't last and that I wouldn't be happy in the long run, despite the $300 price tag. I gave it a few weeks to see if I could get used to my hair, but hated it every time I looked in the mirror, so I made an appointment with a different stylist at a new salon. When I told her my experience she said she would have guessed it had been a few months since my last appointment, not a few weeks based on how brassy and grown out it was. She recommended I reach out to the salon and request a refund of some kind based on how my hair looked. I took her advice and emailed JolSalon with my concerns and photos of my hair. After a few weeks no one responded, so I called and left a message explaining that I'd like to talk about my experience. No one called me back so I emailed again asking to talk about my concerns and my experience. It's now been two months and no one has responded to me. I'm disappointed that they have handled a poor experience in such an unprofessional way. If a refund isn't available then they should be open to hearing about my experience so they can learn from it, but nothing. I strongly recommend you avoid this salon.

    I searched Yelp for a reputable salon with a stylist I could trust and decided on this one. I…read moregenuinely appreciated the skill level and knowledge of the stylist I booked with. They worked carefully to keep my hair strong, soft, and healthy throughout a 9+ hour treatment, which I did value. However, despite the time and effort, I left my appointment very disappointed. Prior to booking, I clearly discussed the details of what I wanted. When I arrived, I specifically reiterated that I did not want my roots touched and that I wanted a high ombré. By the time my hair was fully bleached, the day was over and I was exhausted. Unfortunately, I left with jagged, block-like streaks that stood out dramatically and vibrant fuchsia colored hair instead of a pastel pink. Thankfully, I was offered a complimentary correction and returned the following week. However, at the start of that second appointment, I was told I would need to pay to have my roots fixed because it was "not what I asked for." and refused to correct my hair to pastel pink. This was confusing, as I had clearly communicated my request multiple times and had even shown reference photos. At that point, knowing I would have to pay either way to correct my hair, I decided to proceed. In total, I ended up paying nearly $800. I'm still unsure how there was such a miscommunication. I was clear and precise in my explanation, repeated myself several times, and provided visual references. Additionally, I was given a quote prior to my first appointment. My stylist was aware of my starting color, the desired shade, and what the process would require. Yet after nine hours, the final price was several hundred dollars more than originally quoted, reportedly due to extra product and multiple batches being needed. On top of the second appointment? The lack of cost transparency was disappointing. Overall, I was disappointed not only with the final result but with the experience as a whole. I've had this exact same service done at other salons in the past without spending that many hours, paying that much, or walking away with results I didn't ask for. My stylist was also late both times to our scheduled appointments. Unfortunately, I do not plan to return to this salon.

    I had the most AMAZING experience with Hien for my wedding. Along with Metzli (hairstylist) and…read moretheir assistants, They were able to get my 8 bridesmaids, mother and MIL and myself all done before the estimated time. They were super efficient and they made it so fun and easy in the morning. The makeup itself was really light and didn't feel cake-y at all. I'm really glad I had the makeup trial with Hien and hair with Metzli beforehand too. I am a zero makeup user day to day so I was looking for something minimal while still having it stand out enough for people to know I am the bride. Communication through email and text only- Hien was very responsive so there were no issues or miscommunications. I would definitely recommend Hien if you're looking for someone who's not heavy handed with their makeup looks! Unless that's something you're going for, she can pull that off too!

    I reached out to Hien in May 2021 to do makeup and hair for both my wedding trial/engagement photo…read moreshoot in June 2021 and wedding in January 2022. I sent her an email to inquire about her availability and she responded the next day. Hien only does makeup and she collaborates with another artist to style hair. Hien was the only point of contact and so all questions were directed to her for both hair and makeup. Hien was friendly, professional, and quick to respond to any of my questions throughout the entire process. I scheduled my trial with her on the day of my engagement photo shoot and LOVED how my makeup turned out. She assesses how comfortable you are with makeup and asks what your preferences are so that she can get a sense of what would be most suitable. I really appreciated that she provided suggestions on what to do if I were to cry or if my skin got oily. By the end of the day, my makeup still looked great despite sweating a little from running around on the beach. On the day of the wedding, she came on time at 7AM and set up all of her things very quickly. Hien and Metzli did HMU for my mom, the groom's mom, and myself. They were able to finish hair and makeup for all three of us by 10AM as promised, and everyone was very happy with their look. My mom even said that her makeup looked better compared to when she had her makeup done for my brother's wedding a few years ago. My makeup still looked great even after all the sweating I did from dancing by the end of the night. I would absolutely recommend Hien to anyone looking to get their makeup done for any occasion

All of our communication…read morewas through yelp messages and emails, and MUA On-The-Go was great about scheduling the session just prior to my shoot. Even though our first meeting was the day of the shoot, Yessenia is so warm, personable, and put me at such ease, that I never once felt uncomfortable around her. Yessenia exceeded my expectations. She uses are great, high-end, quality products. My photographer was impressed with her work. Twelve hours after my session, my makeup was still flawless! She's an artist, and very, very good at her craft. If you're searching for a MUA, definitely ask for Yessenia. She's professional, kind, and talented.

After searching a couple days for a MUA in OC and the SD area to no avail, I found Makeup Artist on the Go on good ol' Yelp. I was able to book my artist Cat so easy and quickly through e-mail with their team! Let me just say that Cat was the sweetest and most amazing makeup artist. She showed up at my hotel and transformed me into a dramatic skeletal being. Cat was so creative and she definitely exceeded my expectations!! I received so many compliments that night and Cat's superb skills helped me stay in character with my costume. I will definitely use MUA on the go again and will be letting all my friends know about this business. They were all super professional and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thank you again ladies!!
