First I want to say that…read moreshe responded to my text very quick and was able to give an estimate as well as an appointment. She's very profesional and and welcoming. Kelly did my makeup for a wedding I was attending. I wasn't in the wedding I was just a guest but I wanted to look my best. My makeup was natural and she made me look so beautiful. I received so many compliments throughout the night and even the pictures looked amazing. She does airbrush. I text and read through about 5 makeup artist but Kelly's profile, resume, portfolio is so impressive. After reading everyones I decided to go with Kelly. I made the right choice. I'm was very satisfied. I will be recommending her to family and friends. Thank you Kelly. See you soon!

Kelly did my makeup for my wedding in July 2019 and she did an amazing job. She was professional…read moreand had all of the right makeup tools. She also did my makeup perfect and as she promised, it lasted the entire day and through the night! I was airbrushed but it did not look cakey at all which I was worried about after talking to some people. She also gave me a little bit of the lipstick she used so I could reapply it if needed. I would highly recommend Kelly for any of your makeup needs! I've attached a few pictures and I'm sorry I don't have any "before" shots to compare to. But I am 40 in the photos so hopefully that lets you know her makeup skills did the trick.

I hired Hollywood Makeup Studio to do hair/makeup for my wedding. CJ was great at communicating…read moreduring the initial process and was quick to respond to my questions and was great at following up with me if I forgot to respond. I was constantly changing the number of people who would be getting hair/makeup done, and CJ was great at keeping up with me and all the changes I had. Also, the pricing was reasonable compared to other makeup artists. I loved the hair and makeup that Claire did for myself, but had some issues with my mother, one of my bridesmaids, and my mother-in-law. I was initially drawn to this studio because the website stated they had experience with all skin colors, and since my in-laws and two of my bridesmaids are African American, it was important to me that they had someone who knew how to do makeup to make them look gorgeous. I conveyed this information to CJ and he informed me that the woman that specialized in hair/makeup for African American women was very popular and wouldn't be able to assist with my wedding. I totally understood this, and made sure that he employed people who would make my in-laws and bridesmaids look amazing. He ensured me that all his artists had experience with all skin colors and would be well equipped and experienced to handle my needs. Unfortunately, he was wrong. To start things off, I told CJ that we were getting our hair and makeup done off site and not at the venue, which he acknowledged. Unfortunately he did not follow up (I don't know if he forgot about it or what) and I forgot to tell him the address because I was focused on everything else, but the artists ended up going to the venue first, rather than the actual location. It wasn't as big of a deal because we had plenty of time for everyone to get their hair and makeup done. I don't know if it was Kelly or Mary who did the makeup for my bridesmaid, but it was not done well at all. They did not have the proper color for her and did not know how to apply makeup on her at all. She ended up doing her own makeup because it was done so poorly by the artist. My mother-in-law brought in her own foundation and other items which the artist used so my mother-in-law looked great, but that was only because she brought in her own makeup. The artists did NOT come prepared to do makeup for my bridesmaid and in-laws. My mother was getting her hair curled and ended up being burned by the curling iron right above her left eyebrow. It wasn't enough to bubble or anything, but it did leave a scar and extra makeup had to be applied to cover up the artist's mistake. I don't know if that was Kelly or Mary either. EDIT TO ADD: MY MOTHER'S HAIR GOT BURNED REALLY BADLY AND IT TOOK HER NORMAL HAIRSTLYIST A LONG TIME TO FIGURE IT OUT AND TREAT IT. BECAUSE OF THE STYLISTS POOR WORKSMANSHIP I HAVE DROPPED THE REVIEW DOWN TO ONE STAR. Additionally, how the deposit/payment is handled is awful. I was difficult because the number of services kept changing, so CJ ended up having two different service contracts for my wedding (which was fine). The deposit for each contract ended up being half of the service contract, which was initially okay, but became VERY complicated on the day of the wedding. Since the deposit was half of the service contract, It didn't break down to an even division amongst the services. Basically, the first service contract was 765 (350 for my hair/makeup, 130 for hair/makeup, 130 for hair/makeup, 65 for makeup, and 90 travel fee). This means my deposit was 382.50, which does not divide evenly amongst the various women, so getting final payment was complicated. I had the same issue with the second service contract as well, which was made even more complicated because it was for 4 other women and the contract was for 455. When it came to final payment, I asked CJ how it should be done and he told me to tell everyone to bring cash. But, when each person went to pay with cash, the artists told us not to pay with cash and told us to pay with venmo. Thankfully, my maid of honor is great and venmoed the full amount to Claire, but it was frustrating to be told one thing and then to have that be wrong (or maybe what CJ said was right and how Claire handled it was wrong). TLDR: 1) CJ's communication was great and prompt and he kept up with the changing number of services; 2) the artists went to the incorrect location at first (partially my fault because I didn't provide the location initially but no one followed up with me); 3) the artists are NOT equipped to handle all skin colors which was very upsetting and was NOT what I was told and did not meet my needs; 4) my mother was burned by a curling iron while she was getting her hair done; 5) how the studio handles deposits and payments is very confusing and difficult when there's multiple services because it doesn't divide properly amongst the services.

I rarely wear makeup, at most just my brows and mascara, maybe a bit of eyeliner too, so when I knew I was about to have a full-on makeup on my wedding day, I was a bit hesitant. But Cathy did such a good job making me feel and look fabulous without feeling like plastic or too fake. She even put fake lashes on me which I never had myself and my face still looked natural! Even my husband who doesn't like heavy makeup thought I looked very beautiful with the makeup :-) I tend to get sensitive skin, and so does my sister, but we both didn't react of her products. That's very important on your special day! Cathy doesn't only have skills, she has great personality too. She's very accommodating, easy to work with, cheerful, respectful, supportive and a good listener. I've seen her around kids too and she's patient with them and they seem to all gravitate toward her. A good makeup artist who's also good with kids? I think that's a big bonus for any kids photo shoot! Can't say enough good things about Cathy. Skillful, professional, reasonable prices, great personality. It's not easy to find a good makeup artist but she's definitely one of the rare ones out there.
