Bree was amazing!! I got married on 10.26.18 at Merriman's in Maui. I booked Bree for hair and makeup for me, my mom and bridesmaids. If I had to do it all over, I would definitely choose her again. I could sense her positive energy even over email when I was initially inquiring about pricing and scheduling. I knew she was the perfect match to keep me calm and collected on my big day. When she arrived at our condo, she took time with each of us to get a sense of our style and what would look good. She was completely happy to tweak any parts we were unsure of and so easy to talk with! No nervous or awkwardness here! My hair and makeup stayed PERFECTLY even in the Maui humidity, wind and even a little mist of rain during the ceremony. I have coarse, wavy, Asian hair that is very difficult to tame but man, my hair was not moving an inch! My makeup stayed glam the whole night and covered my "stress pimples" very well too! Overall, Bree is such a great person and makeup/hair artist! I would definitely recommend! Thanks, Bree!

Bree Rubin was great to work with! She was fun to talk to and has pleasant personality. Most importantly, she was flexible and worked with me to find a solution for my hair and make-up needs for my wedding. Bree did a fantastic job with my hair, giving me the beautiful curls I've always wanted. If you look at her Instagram feed she does some really nice hairstyles, so I was excited to have her to my hair for my special day. Since I don't wear much make-up, but wanted to cover up flaws, I decided to still have a make-up artist even though I was terrified. I feared I wouldn't look good and my entire day would be ruined. However, Bree was able to make me feel comfortable from the start and also took my needs into account. Knowing I wasn't used to wearing a ton of make-up, she made sure to do a natural look that was natural enough to appease me, yet heavy enough to look good in pictures (and natural looks are her expertise as well!). I have skin problems, some of which can flare up with the wrong make-up, so she was willing to work with me incorporate some make-up I provided her with her own to help minimize the chance that I'd break out. In the end, the day went well, my make-up help up incredibly well, and she put the right amount of make-up on me so that my pictures turned out great. On a side note, I'd like to remind brides ahead of time to keep some foundation with you. I accidentally kept rubbing my nose against my husband so eventually the foundation on my nose wore off by later that night, and I didn't realize until the party was over. It was the foundation I gave her that I usually use, so I think my foundation is less durable than if I had let her use airbrush foundation. Make-up is magical, but not permanent, so make sure to keep some make-up with you just in case or put your maid of honor in charge of keeping an eye on you! ;) Photos by Amity Mason Photography, flowers by Terrie Fukushima, and wedding coordinated by Jacquelyn Mendoza of Maui Destination Weddings / SDD Weddings.

Bree is hands down the BEST person to work with when it comes to anything hair. While living on Maui, Bree was someone that I trusted completely when it came to both the cut and color of my hair- even when I came to her at times of indecisiveness she always knew exactly what to do to make me feel my best. After becoming engaged she was obviously somebody that I absolutely HAD to have do my bridesmaids, as well as my own hair. She was extremely accommodating, and flew out to California to meet my requests. Day of, she was a rockstar. ** I should note that in addition to myself, I had 12 bridesmaids + the moms... and everyone in my party was completely blown away at not only her amazing ability to execute the most awesome braids and up do's in record time, but also at the fact as to how personable, and professional she is. A few of the girls needed direction when it came to choosing a hairstyle, and they had actually complimented the fact at how she was able to provide them with one that they would never have dreamed of having, and that they ultimately loved. When it came to my own hair, Bree nailed it. I was so happy with how my hair came out, and felt that she truly listened to what is was that I wanted. Thank you SO much Bree for always saving my hair- and thank you especially for making me feel exceptionally beautiful on my wedding day.

Bree, was my hair and makeup artist for my destination wedding last month. I was very nervous about my hair and makeup until I found Bree. She was extremely down to earth, fun and friendly. Bree, kept me calm through the entire process and made sure I was happy and comfortable. She is professional and extremely talented! She even helped my Mom (mother of the bride) with her hair last minute and it came out stunning! I would 100% recommend Bree Rubin for any of your hair and makeup services. Thank you Bree!

I came across Bree on Instagram while browsing for vendors for our small wedding. Scrolling through her account and seeing her beautiful work, I knew it would be a perfect fit for me. I am SO glad I found her, because I would not have wanted anyone else to do my hair and makeup on my special day! Bree was always ultra-responsive via email as I booked her services, bounced questions off her, and fed her ideas of what I envisioned during the months leading up to our wedding. Without the opportunity to meet in person or do a trial-run, this made me feel so much more comfortable. The day of the event, Bree showed up right on time to get set up. We talked some more about how I wanted to look, and then she got right to work. Not only was Bree super fun and easy to talk to, she truly made my getting-ready time so memorable and such a special part of my day. My sister-in-laws also adored her and had a great time watching Bree do her work. There aren't sufficient words to describe how perfect my soft up-do turned out - not to mention how effortlessly she pulled it together! I had brought a few hair pins to incorporate into my 'do, and Bree willingly messed with them until we agreed they were perfectly placed. My makeup turned out flawless as well - I wanted a natural look with minimal coverage and Bree totally delivered. She also erased a nasty-looking heat rash on my chest I developed that morning with airbrush. I'll be eternally grateful for that! On an exceptionally warm and sunny spring afternoon in Lahaina, my makeup stayed put and my hair did not budge. My family and friends could not stop commenting about how pretty and artful my updo turned out. I wish I could've worn it the rest of the week! Given the chance, I would recommend Bree a thousand times over, whether it be for a wedding or any other special occasion.

Bree did my hair and make up for our Hawaiian Elopement and oh my gosh!! A dream come true. My hair was perfect in every way. It looked like it should have came out of a bridal magazine or off pinterest. My makeup photographed so well, even through the rain and 30mph winds it endured. She was so easy to work with, quick to answer emails, and such a joy to chat with while I was getting ready!

Lindsay L.

Bree was amazing! She was a breath of fresh air during the wedding planning process. She was very professional and prompt. She knew how to make things less stressful before and during the wedding day. She understood my aesthetic and knows how to apply makeup in a beautiful and modern way. She exceeded all my expectations!

When looking for someone to do my hair + makeup for my October wedding in Maui I did a lot of research and eventually came across Bree Rubin Hair + makeup. She had great reviews and I was also able to follow her work on IG. I couldn't have been more happy with my decision and highly recommend her to all future brides! Not only was she so sweet and easy going, but she made me feel beautiful on my special day! Thank you so much Bree Rubin hair + makeup!

Bree was fantastic and very professional! She listened to all of my requests and accommodated them while adding her special touches to everything. She was very punctual for the trial and the day of the wedding even though it was really early in the morning. She did an absolutely beautiful job with all of our hair and makeup. We had an Indian wedding and Bree was knowledgeable enough to properly put up the traditional jewelry and went out of her way to help with my Indian veil draping over my updo. I definitely recommend Bree for every bride and her bridal party's hair and makeup!

Traci S.

Not only she is very sweet, she did a great job on hair and makeup for me. I usually wear no make up so I didn't want to have so much that I was unrecognizable but enough to look like I've made effort. It was perfect. Thank you so much!!

Did not get what I wanted. The nails are too long. She didn't cut them at all? The nails are see through. The gel is bumpy and uneven and there are air bubbles. The paint for tips is not even at all and the flowers couldn't be done period despite saying they could be when I showed the design. 108$ later. Going back to just have them taken off. Staff seemed like they just wanted me out. Definitely should not have left and wish I had said something. UPDATE Went back this morning when they opened and was told to come back an hour before close. My husband comes with me. We go in they have me sit down and I explain the issues. I say I just want them cut down, smoothed out and repolished. Manager (I think) says that I'll have to pay for the whole service again and that if I didn't like them I shouldn't have left the salon. My husband steps in (because I'm apologizing when the nails are just awful) and says that the original nail tech did a poor job and I already pains 108$. Manager says "I have to pay her"- in reference the nail tech I'm sat in front of. Which would be 95$ for gel x. I then say I'd rather have them removed if I can't get them cut down (this would be 20$). Manager says that removing them would take an hour and Annie the nail tech that is already working at my nails can redo my nails in less time and she will do them for 21$. There are also three other employees standing close around me and looking at my nails. This felt very weird. My husband is not satisfied with the manager stating that the nail tech wouldn't get paid if we didn't pay. She's smoothing them, removing chunks of the dried adhesive from underneath the nails, cut themselves down and files them. I feel terrible though that he says she will only get paid the 21$ though. She did a perfect job and I did not make her redo the nail design I had. Especially since I now know that she wouldn't get the difference from the salon for fixing the problem. So I just got some pretty pink nails. In the shape and length I originally wanted, smooth with no chunks or bumps. We did tip her. But like dang. These are now much better. But it's completely off putting having the owner/ manager tell someone that the service worker won't get paid at all, when the salon should be covering them due another employees error and poor work. Does not sit right with me.

Amazing, amazing!! I'm the spa girly when I go away, especially to a resort! I was absolutely…read moreimpressed with my entire visit here! I booked an 80 min Cab Lomi Lomi massage outside in the cabana facing the ocean! Worth every single cent! They do have a 20% service charge split between the hotel and the spa but they're very upfront about this charge when you book as well as with reminders. The facilities were so beautiful and clean! I was able to take advantage of the sauna, the infinity pool, snacks, citrus infused water, locker room, dark chocolate, and complimentary champagne. Adrian was my massage therapist and he was so kind and made sure to honor my request for medium but light pressure! I felt so relaxed! He even took some photos, of me as requested so I'd have them for memories! The view, stellar! Literally so beautiful! Like something out of a postcard! If you enjoy the spa, you will not be disappointed in this place!

I accidentally booked the wrong Heavenly Spa location, but it turned out to be an amazing mistake!…read more I had Mel as my massage therapist, and I would highly recommend you request her! Even though I told her I thought my shoulders and back needed the most work for my deep tissue massage, she suggested working on my entire body after noticing the areas that I've had injuries/strains/tendonitis without me mentioning it to her. She could tell from my body that I was not balanced when I'm sitting down (I blame work), which I had a sense that was the case, but she confirmed it. This was one of the best massages I've had, and before that, I thought nothing could beat the massage I had at Aria in Vegas. I'm still blown away by the fact that Mel could tell what areas of my body needed work when I didn't even tell her. My line of work of physically demanding that requires proper ergonomics to avoid work injuries but that's not always feasible. The spa has great amenities to enjoy after your treatment. There's a great view with an infinity pool where you can dip in or lounge in the chair. I obviously was not prepared for this since I thought I booked the other location. I would recommend you bring a swimsuit if you want to dip in the infinity pool. There's an individual infrared sauna you can also sit in, which was a great sweat session. They also will offer you refreshment to enjoy after your treatment. I ended up getting the POG mimosa, which was tasty. As for parking, you get free complimentary valet up to 4 hours. The front staff will ask you at the end, which was good because I totally forgot I needed to validate it. I will say that there is a huge difference between the cheaper spa massages you can get somewhere else compared to one at a hotel. This one was definitely worth the splurge when you can get a private room with no distractions, be pampered, and then enjoy the amenities at the end. If you're ok with spending that much with a nice view to enjoy at the end, then I would highly recommend you check out this spa!

Husband and I came here in August. We wanted to be pampered but also didn't want to break the bank…read more I was deciding between Spa at Black Rock or the Heavenly Spa at the Westin. Their prices were so expensive for 1 massage, so we decided to try the Spa at Black Rock. Ambiance was ok. There are no locker rooms to change into a robe. Once you enter, you sign in and they have you sit in a little lounge area outside. They will come out and get you when it's time. When you get to your massage room, that is where you will undress. Please do not bring any valuables. There's no lockers for you to keep your purse/wallet, rings. For the price we paid... the massage was relaxing, but the ambiance was not like a typical spa. No frills. There is no sauna or hot tub. No robes or slippers to change into. There is 1 shower attached to the restroom. So if you take a long time showering, and someone needs to use the restroom, they're screwed. If you're deciding between 2 places like we were... consider Spa at Black Rock for just a massage. But if you're looking for a place to relax and unwind before and after a massage, go somewhere else. Would we come back? No. Learned my lesson. I'd rather pay more and enjoy my time at a real spa.

Yesterday for the first time, I splurged on a deep tissue massage on the beach…read more Eliana was my masseuse and being that I've had ~30 years of frequent massages, I feel experienced enough to say that she was beyond amazing! She checked with me on the pressure of the deep tissue various times and kept the pressure consistent throughout the hour. Thank you Eliana!

When coming to Maui to finalize our wedding venue search, I decided that doing our engagment photos…read morethere would be best to test out someone for Hair & Makeup. I did my research, and thought that Jessica's pricing was very reasonable, and that her work resembled what I was looking for. With less than a week heads up, she was able to coordinate a time for my hair and makeup, and was so accommodating! I was very happy with the results after she was complete, but the real test came for the actual engagement shoot where we were on the beach getting splashed with ocean water, and battling wind. I have VERY fine blonde hair, and every piece stayed in place (and it was down in loose curls!), and my makeup look like it had just been put on despite hours in humid/wet conditions --- I was floored! Obviously with such a great experience, I booked her and her team for our wedding date once we settled on a venue. The results on our wedding day were nothing short of what I expected. She guided me through the process of how to do multiple (1 bride, 5 bridesmaids, 2 moms, and a groom's service) people's hair/makeup within tight timeframe, and even was able to take on an extra person for hair, and a groomsmen for a touchup last minute! My five bridesmaids are seasoned bridesmaids, in weddings spanning from Napa, to Palm Springs, to Italy and beyond and they all unanimously agreed that was HANDS DOWN the best hair/makeup experience they have ever had. The airbrush make up worked in humid Maui conditions all day, and with a variety of hair lengths/texture everyone was pleased with the results. I would recommend Jessica & her team to anyone looking for a seamless/stress free and beautiful hair/makeup experience on Maui for Weddings or any special events!

Jessica did my hair and make up for my elopement and I was so happy with the results…read more Not only did I look and feel beautiful, but Jessica was very sweet and helpful as I was not feeling well that day and the A/C broke in my hotel room. It speaks to her expertise that she could put on my eyelashes all while the hotel staff climbed ladders to fix the A/C, room service fluffed the pillows and bedding, dropped off a celebratory bottle and chocolates. She kept telling me we would later laugh about it and she's right. Aside from some general requests on how I wanted my hair and makeup to look, I trusted her to do her thing and she delivered. I went with wavy curls because I wore a flower crown. I'm always skeptical of curling my hair because it never holds but it held up beautifully even in the Maui heat. The airbrush makeup is amazing. Felt so light on my skin and looked great all night. Thank you, Jessica!
