    Christy did my hair and makeup for my wedding and was amazing! Everyone complimented me on how beautiful my hair and makeup looked at the wedding. Christy was so flexible and came to my house to get ready. She can set up anywhere and we had a really great time with my family behind me. Thank you Christy!!

    Christy is a one stop shop for all your wedding needs! I did decor, hair & makeup, and gown rental all through christy! It made wedding planning so much easier and Christy and her team did an amazing job all around! She made me, my girls and the venue all so beautiful! First is decor -- Christy helped me decorate my sweetheart table with a backdrop and another backdrop for the tea ceremony! Everyone was so impressed! Initially I was not as happy with my venue because there were a lot of restrictions around decor, but Christy really transformed the look of it! Also huge bonus that Christy is chinese too because my dominantly chinese family really appreciated the chinese backdrop. Second -- Christy offers a wide range of wedding dresses for rent -- all at a reasonable price and all so beautiful! She also has some chinese wedding gowns! My husband got his from Christy's! Third -- Hair & Makeup -- Christy was with me my entire wedding day! She was really short on time but with the help of Tracy, managed to get 7 girls hair & makeup done and everyone was beautiful! I was very very happy with my hair and makeup! She was by my side all day to retouch my makeup and I had 3 outfit changes which Christy helped me with all of them! We were always on a time crunch so I was rly glad Christy was there as she's familiar with all the lacings of the dress. She also has a wide range of hair accessories to choose from for american reception and chinese tea ceremony! So glad Christy helped me on my wedding day! Highly recommend!!

    I can't recommend Christy enough! She did my makeup for my wedding, and I couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. I absolutely loved my look -it felt like the best version of me and my family kept commenting on how sweet, patient, and professional she was throughout the day. Christy brought such a calm, fun energy to the wedding morning, which made such a difference. From our first conversation to the big day, she was so responsive and thoughtful. I'm genuinely so glad I chose her. Dhe helped make the day even more beautiful!

    Bridal hair and makeup

    Christy helped make me feel my absolute best on my wedding day! Getting married in San Francisco, we were looking for someone who could do hair and makeup for 4 of us in the hotel suite. From the very first email- Christy was quick to respond with availability, quote, and approximate timeline. She arrived right on time with all materials she'd need for the day. We were working on a short timeline- needed someone in 4-5 weeks with no time for a trial run. Christy saved the day! The part I appreciated the most was her responsiveness to our preferred styling. Through words or a few Pinterest snapshots Christy got the gist of the look we were going for, and then modified for style/color based on our hair or skin tone. She has a calm presence and the photos came out stunning. Thanks Christy for offering great service and value! Highly recommend.

    Christy was extremely nice and the price is very reasonable. I opted for just an updo (no makeup) which only took an hour. It looked great and lasted all night!

    Christy did my hair and make up for my backyard wedding this past weekend. My all inclusive venue wedding that was set was postponed due to social distancing regulations, and my now husband and I still wanted to have our ceremony with our immediate family for the planned wedding date. We booked a beach house in Moss Beach and started planning our micro wedding. Originally. I wasn't planning on having my make up and hair done--but I'm so glad that I was able to book Christy! I reached out to her a little over a month ago, and she let me know that she was available! Christy is the sweetest!! She did my make up exactly how I wanted it to be done (even though at the time I wasn't sure what I was looking for). Make up really isn't my forte, but Christy walked me through everything she was thinking about doing and it turned out really beautifully. She did such a great job. I highly recommend her!! She really is so talented.

    Wedding dress rental, veil and petticoat

    I've been to at least 5 or 6 wedding dress stores, either rental or purchase. The moment I walked into Christy's store, I was very impressed how clean and well maintained the wedding dresses are. She has been very patient and helpful with dress fitting! All of them are really beautiful. I ended up choosing this one as this one is most flattering to the waist and easier to move around in my outdoor wedding ceremony. I also did my first dance in this dress! Very comfortable and beautiful! I truly feel like a princess on that day!! I felt really bad that I accidentally made a tear near the hem of the dress. Probably from some wood chips or a twig somewhere at the venue. When I returned the dress, Christy was really nice about it and said she'll fix it. I really appreciate her kindness!

    I made an appointment messaging through their Facebook page and got a very prompt reply back…read moreconfirming date and time. Located in a very prime location in downtown Millbrae, the salon is gorgeous inside! Very modern and clean. I got to my appointment early but was quickly attended to check in. Vee asked if I needed a hair wash which I told him that I already washed the night before. He said because my hair was very dry, he would give me a hair wash. It was so relaxing and he did an amazing job washing and conditioning my hair. Next up was blow-drying and he took a lot of time to not only dry it but used a barrel brush to style it and straighten it after. He was very meticulous! I showed him pictures of my hair inspiration and he said he could do the medium layer cut. I was so impressed with the outcome, it was a wonderful experience and can't wait to come back!

    Please do not go to this salon…read more The reviewer who mentioned being treated differently and looked down upon due to not speaking Mandarin was 100% accurate. I experienced the same treatment. I was so hopeful this would be my new go-to salon for cuts & dyes, as Leo's IG was exactly what I was looking for. I booked a hair cut with Leo, "Master" Stylist, for $88 last week, confirmed by their scheduler over Messenger, for a 7:30pm time slot (usually their closing time, but the scheduler assured me it was fine and preferred by Leo). When I walked in, Leo warmly said, "bye bye" to the previous customer, who l heard speaking Mandarin with him. I walked up to greet him, introduced myself, and asked if he was Leo. He looked so bothered and disgusted(??), which completely threw me off. He said yes and pointed for me to sit in the seat, barely greeting me. I said I wanted a trim, and he acknowledged that. Then I said I only wanted 1-2 inches off my long hair, as I wanted to keep my length. I asked for a couple of long layers for my main hair, and more layering for the bangs, citing a really subtle wolf cut or butterfly cut. I showed him photo examples for bangs & layers, he pointed out some were short compared to my hair length, and I confirmed they indeed were too short for me and that these photos were mainly for the layer examples and that I wanted longer. We were the only ones in the salon at this point. He tried to start cutting my hair without a hair wash by putting on the cape (a bit tightly at first), and I asked, "Are you going to wash my hair?" Then, he seemed aggravated and visibly upset by that question and said that my hair is so long that I'd have to pay extra to have a wash included with a cut. He took out his calculator and showed me it would be a bit over $100. I told him the scheduler confirmed it was a flat $88 for a hair cut with him, even when I stated I had long hair and asked about it. I offered to show him the messages, but then he huffed and said, "Fine, OK, $88." He was clearly agitated, roughly took off the cape, and threw it on the nearby chair. It was concerning that he seemed so pissed off... I felt so incredibly uncomfortable due to this behavior, and I contemplated leaving, but wanted to avoid any more negative reactions. So I just hoped for the best and went to the hair wash station. The water he used was a little too hot, and he did not ask once if the temperature was okay, like other salons do. The entire wash was very rushed and rough, and he literally wrung my hair out like a wet towel!! I was shocked. Wringing wet hair causes damage, and no stylist has ever done that to my hair. Stylists normally bunch it in their hands and squeeze the water out gently to protect the hair from breakage. The shampoo and conditioner he used smelled awful, like a cleaning solution with musk. It was really so terrible that I had to wash out when I got home, and 5 shampoos that night didn't fully remove it. Back at the salon chair, he put the cape back on (again, a bit too tightly at first), and used a small, loud hair dryer on maximum heat to dry my hair. He did not put any hair protectant or oil to protect my hair like salons normally do. He clearly was rushing as quickly as possible, yanking at my thin, tangly hair. The heat was too hot for my scalp and it hurt a bit after. During the blow dry, my Asian boyfriend (he's Chinese, not that it's obvious or should even matter??) walked in after parking the car. I waved to him, Leo asked if he's with me, and I said yes. Suddenly, Leo's mood and tone changed when he spoke with me. He talked more in a friendly, gentle "customer service" voice (as used w/ the previous customer). I was shocked at the sudden switch. I wondered why he didn't think I should be treated this way from the beginning? Leo very hastily dry cut my hair and only cut a tiny bit off (maybe less than or up to 1 inch) of the very center back section of hair, then essentially thinned random parts at an angle without trimming in full. So he did not first trim all my hair before going to thin out edges and a bit of slide cutting only. He measured some of the layers to match, which was good, but then he left so much of my hair not cut at all, and I only noticed after getting home. He didn't show me the final back view with mirror like literally all other past stylists have done. He also did not 1) first pull out all my bangs or 2) trim across first. He only made small sideway and slide cuts to thin the edges for some. I found completely missed strands when I got home, and it did not look good. I had to cut those bangs myself, it looked embarrassing to leave them. The almost-45-min service was not worth $88, let alone w/ the rounded-up 15% tip I left, but I wanted to avoid issues and be out of there. The only positive is my hair is still long; however, this felt like a "master" scam rather than a "master" cut. :'( I'm so sad.
