Thank goodness for social media. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to come across Tamanna's DressYourFace page on FB. Her work is amazing. No one had to tell me because, as the saying goes, a picture speaks a thousand words. Having said that, my first appt was last night. I had a color touch up , cut and blow dry. Let me just start off by saying that Tamanna has an amazing personality. She was super friendly, asked me what I needed and I felt that she truly listened to me. She spent about 2+ hours and took her time to deliver quality results. By the time I left, I was ready to go out ;-)) Again, I feel lucky having had the opportunity to meet her and will absolutely refer my friends and family to her. Thanks Tamanna for making me feel gorgeous! =) read more

When I got engaged it was my first priority to book Tamanna since I knew for the longest time I wanted her to be my makeup artist for my wedding day. The date that she was available I made sure everything else (venue, etc) was available around her bc I would not settle for another makeup artist! It's my special day! I want to look fabulous! The whole process with her was super simple. We met up about a month before my wedding for a trial where we figured out the look. And even the trial, being a quick one, was amazing! I felt so pretty the whole day with her makeup trial on lol. So the wedding day came and she was super amazing. I look like a young kid normally bc i'm petite along with my child-like features, but for my wedding day, I felt like i looked like a woman. I'm so used to putting my own makeup on and having her do it her way was eye opening. I love how my makeup came out, i love how my hair came out! And she was such a sweetheart that she helped me with my dress when i was waiting on my mom/ family members to get to the hotel (which was 2 hours later..). But she was nice enough to help me out with everything, and I can't thank her enough! She is crazy talented and I promise, not over hyped. She is a talented and sweetly down to earth woman! read more

I'm reviewing on yelp because I tried contacting her support team and later on IG. My concerns were never addressed and comments were erased... I didn't post anything mean or inappropriate. I signed up for a trial class and cancelled before the trial was over. It was basically the same material you can learn for free online and on FB. My card was charged and I logged back on cancelling again. The website showed it was cancelled and I took a screen shot to show her costumer service team. After I was charged a 2nd time, I realized my card would continue to be charged despite me cancelling and I had to get a new debit card. I'm not sure what business practices she engages in... but I was disappointed. read more

LOVE Tamanna! She has been doing my hair for over 5 years now. She does an amazing job and has NEVER failed me at all. Whenever i come in with a vision she just gets it and goes with it. I have died my hair many different colors and each time it came out successfully with her. Her makeup skills are amazing as well. I have never met someone SO TALENTED as her. As well as my hair she has been doing any special occasions i have for years. She now does my hair, my moms and sisters :) OVERALL: Dress your Face for Life read more

I signed up for the DYF online makeup classes about a month ago.. there has been 3 new videos that have been uploaded. For the amount of money you're paying for a monthly subscription, I think uploading more videos is important. Not only that but it just seems like most of the products she recommends/uses are from her affiliated companies. This just makes her entire brand seem like a scam. Currently I am watching her 2017 makeup kit favorites and I'm extremely disappointed. Half of the products were released at the end of the year and 100% of the items are from her affiliate companies. At this point the only thing I can trust from her brand is her tips because I have actually learned a lot about makeup application. However, if I wanted to only learn how to apply makeup I would've just opened up my YouTube and watched the thousands of makeup tutorial videos on there. As a paying subscriber, I hope to see not only techniques but a variety of products that I can purchase. Products that I have confidence in because the person that is giving me these "tutorials" love them, not because she's getting paid to advertise them. I guess it's too early to judge her DYFL site because I have been on there for only a month but so far I am a bit disappointed. I find myself constantly waiting for videos and reading outside reviews to determine what products I should actually purchase. Sometimes morphe and girlactic products are shoved way too much down my throat! I plan on being subscribed for a couple of more months, let's see how it goes. read more

Tamanna is great! I have long hair, and about once a year, I like to go for a change (chop it shoulder length, perm, whatever tickles my fancy). Being new to the area, I ran across Tamanna on Yelp and her portfolio looked promising. The one twist, however, is that she works from her home. I am not one who usually enters the homes of strangers, but I read such great reviews about her, I thought I should check it out for myself. Turns out, her home set up is great. At the salons I normally frequent in SF or LA, I definitely feel rushed. Sometimes the stylists work on multiple clients at once. The nice thing about meeting Tamanna at her home is that I felt like she was able to fully devote her attention to my hair questions and concerns. It was quite nice! I had to move my appointment around due to work schedule conflicts, and she was so graciously accommodating. I came to her with a couple hairstyle options in mind, and she walked me through the pros and cons of each approach. I was torn between two bang styles. She was considerate enough to create the first style, give me a chance to think it over, and when I passed on it, she created the second style. She was so patient and pleasant through the process. I am happy with the end result, and I've received compliments all week on my new do. Before leaving my appointment, Tamanna walked me through how to style my hair in both straight and curled hairstyles and even taught me a couple tricks to hide any imperfections as I trained my hair to lay in a certain way. Talented, great conversation and reasonably priced -- what else could you possibly want in a hairstylist? Now, I'm searching for a reason to get my make up done by her! read more

Tamanna is a true professional. So talented and takes such pride in her work. I had the pleasure of working with her for my wedding last month. If you know Indian weddings, you know they consist of a LOT of different celebratory events! She did my hair and makeup for 3 of the events including my ceremony and reception. She also did the pinning of my dupatta for the ceremony. Not only is she good at what she does, she's also a very nice person. As she got me ready, her presence really helped calm my nerves! I came to her for a trial before the wedding and I had a vague idea of what I wanted. She listened to me and also offered suggestions for what would look good with my different outfits. What can I say, the girl has a great eye for details and in the end I was so happy with all the looks she created for the different events! I got a lot of compliments and a couple brides-to-be who were at my wedding have already asked for the contact info of my hair/makeup artist. I can't recommend her highly enough for bridal hair/makeup (I literally created a Yelp account so that I could write her the glowing review she deserves!). read more

Everyday I look at social media as a power source to open minds and close them at the same time. When you sit up at the top, it's hard to realize the amount of influence you have on others, weather it's negative or positive. The evolution of DYF has its highs and lows, but I am sensing a downfall in her brand. She's lost her appeal, her ethical approach, and her people skills- or did she have them to begin with?? The number one rule in sales is not what the customer purchases, but how you as a seller makes them feel. That will be something the consumer will NEVER forget and will share their experience with others by word of mouth. Now DYF is a hard worker, she looks like she's worked 50 hours a week in her life. But there are a few things that she is truly neglecting in the process of her success that is making a few of her loyal fans turn into frustrated consumers. As a frustrated client myself, these are the things she needs to TRULY come to terms with when it comes to her brand and herself. 1. Makeup looks are getting repetitive. Has DYF ever used lipstick as a sheer cream blush as NARS was famous for? Come up with some editorial looks for once. Or create body contour for a swimsuit shoot. Do something different! Without winged liner or wear a blue lipstick! 2. She needs to take one day off. Go visit the live glam HQ and observe how your customer service team is addressing the issues of her classes being over charged, showcasing defective streaming, and review concepts of her classes and why they are being divided into 2 parts- pissing off her clients. 3. LISTEN to her clients. Some will be upset. 99% of the issues are not unreasonable. Blocking client concerns displays that she is personalizing them as an attack- which escalates the point of the concern causing it to result to a angry client. Her angry client list is growing. And she is ignoring it instead of taking it head on- grow some balls and handle it DYF! 4. She needs to be like-able. Truly make fun of herself( like lusterlux) Her princess like attitude will only get you far to a certain limit (unless you're Kim k). Comedy makes people laugh and relatable. She talks for days about herself and needs a speech coach asap. This will help her in her dire need of presentation skills. DYF needs to take a step back and take a look at herself. She's building an unethical brand and supports it with her close minded attitude. In order for her brand to evolve- she must start growing up and evolve with it. read more

This is a very late review, but it's a good one! Tamanna happens to be the winner of my first 5 star review. I came to her for my haircut the day after my birthday, and it's still looking hot. The length and layers were/are perfect, I just blow dry my hair and I'm good to go. She's a very nice person and fun to talk to. She shared funny things about her family life and wedding. Very presonable. Thanks Tamanna! Can't wait to get my make up done before you move! read more

I absolutely loveeeee tamana#! She is simply the best ive seen n the bay..anywhere at that! I wish she didnt move!! Im n love with my new hair!! Love the work. Love the personality the professionalism. .the price! I think u should charge more. .but hey im not complaining lol!! read more

Her live online classes are a joke. I mistakenly signed up for a yearly membership. Huge mistake. I learned all of her tricks in one month. She's a one-trick pony. Don't waste you hard earned money. If you must, try one of her special sales and then cancel before the subscription renews. You'll get all the information you need from that. The video and audio quality are also very poor. How she managed to achieve worse video quality than when she first launched hey online classes is beyond me. Seriously, you can find better youtube videos for free and learn the same information. Hope this helps someone save their hard earned money. read more

If you are in need of anything beauty related, Tamanna is your girl! She has done my makeup for several special occasions and every single time was absolutely amazing! I couldn't keep up with all the compliments. =) Her talent is a real blessing. I highly recommend her services. One look at her portfolio and you will too. read more

This review is for a brow shaping session. I found Tamanna thru Instagram, all of her makeup jobs were amazing, and I kept noticing all the brows looked soooo good. So Finally I decided to make an appt (booked via text message) - her response was instant! . My natural brows are awful, one is super round and the other one grows upwardst. I had been getting my brows shaped for years, but no one can really ever give me the arch I am seeking as mine are naturally round. Initially, I was a little startled at the price, but I figured she is very talented and busy and I was desperate to find someone who knew how to help me. Tamanna works out of her apartment in Fremont, I was again thrown off at this because the price tag for brows is much higher than spas and salons.... Once I reached her apartment complex she greeted me warmly and took me back up to her place where she has a large workstation set-up. It was clean and cute, and very comfortable. I explained I wanted tweezing only, no wax. She was more than fine with that and listened to what I explained I wanted. What I really appreciated is that she explained everything she would do, and WHY. She explained she would take off a bit of the top of my brows to remove the round shape and then would show me how to fill them in. So not only did I get a brow shaping, I got a tutorial on how to maintain them! She shared with me exactly what type of pencil to use, and sat there with me and watched me shape them with the pencil after she did it first (so she sat and practiced with me!) She even acknowledged her prices were higher than usual, but that's because this is shaping AND tuturial session. So more like a service. She was honest with me in saying I could even go to any other place in the mean time to maintain the shape, and only come to her when they needed to be reset from the beginning stages again. That is pretty impressive, she was helping me save money. The whole process was quick, and she made it look so easy that I was worried I wouldn't like the outcome, it was hard for me to believe she could achieve what i wanted so quickly. plus was I was still hung up on the fact that I was paying $35 for a shaping that took place out of an apartment! okay.....THROW ALL THOSE misconceptions out the window. I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE my brows. I have never, ever had brows like I have now. I went from bushy, round, and uneven to arched, clean, and totally symmetrical. I can't even believe how well my new brows have set the frame for my face. I am SO thankful I've found Dress Your Face and will more than gladly fork over $35 for her to my brows anytime. She not only gave me a look I have always wanted, she showed me how to maintain them, and even shared with me which pencil to get and why it works. I am considering her for my next hair and make up job too. She is just extremley talented and I actually admire her for working out of her apartment. What a great way to get your independent hustle on!!! (PS - all her certifications are posted up in clear view)Highly recommend to anyone. Give it a try, you will be verrrry happy!!! Thank you Tammana!!!!! read more

I love Tamanna's work! I have gone to her for hair and color and all I can say is that I am truly happy with the results!! Her work speaks for itself, she is super friendly and I have never met anyone/or stylist that listens to you as much as she does, I think its really important that someone listens and knows what you really want, and this girl was all ears!!!! she really cares for you as a client and gives great results..i highly recommend her!! read more

Obviously, the girl is TALENTED. But what really makes her stand out is her warm heart, generous nature, work ethic, and likability! This girl has gone and will continue to go far! The only reason I want to get married right now is so she can do my makeup. LOL. not joking. read more

Ah-mazing! Tamanna is one of the most professional individuals I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She truly is a master at what she does, not to mention a complete sweetheart and easygoing person to talk to. Her work is impeccable and my mother and I got so many wonderful compliments on the hair and makeup from everyone at my event. She really does listen to her clients and doesn't stop until they are pleased with the results. I was so vague in my descriptions of what I wanted at my consultation and in our e-mail exchanges, but she was still able to pull it off beautifully. I would recommend Tamanna in a heartbeat, you won't be disappointed! read more

I have heard so much about Tamanna and her wonderful work. I have seen so many final products of hers and she's simply and truly the best at what she does. I'm really excited about my appointment with her, I know she will do a great job! I can't wait! read more

Tam's great, every time i've been to her she has done a great job whether its makeup or hair she never fails! you wont be dissapointed try her out! read more

Loved my Hair Cut! Thank You so much!...No one can understand my hair but you did a wonderful job!..especially the kim's Bags on me!..:) Will be making an appointment every time with you!..and Thanks for the tips..;) Sara..:) read more

Wish I could give her negative stars. I like my make up simple and she way over did what I was looking for my wedding ;(. I tried to do a trial with her but she doesn't let you. During my wedding she was so rude and condescending when I asked her to take some make up off and brushed me off. I seriously cried I felt so ugly at my wedding because of her. I later found out about the undressyourface page on instagram and saw what a horrible person she is! Don't book her! read more

Tamanna does a gorgeous job. She is professional and sweet. She recently did the hair and make up (two different looks) for an Indian bride I was photographing in Brentwood and the bride looked stunning! read more

I signed up for her online master classes after reading how much she wrote about it on social media. after a couple of months, i decided to unsubribe because the classes were not helpful at all, i can learn a lot more on youtube and for free! i cancelled my account but continued receiving the payments on my bank account. i tried (a lot of times) to contact her or her team, but did not receive an answer so i had to tell my bank not to pay to Dress Your Face Live.. I'm seriously very unpleased. She talks about "hard work", "her busy schedule", but it seems like she only cares about the money. read more

She's amazing, if I could give her 10 stars I would....she was my makeup artist for my wedding for two different looks, she did exactly what I wanted plus more. Can't wait to work with her again. read more

Tamanna is amazing! She's by far the GREATEST hair stylist, make up artist ever. She does an amazing job, I fell in love with her and her work the first time I came for my hair cut. Everyone would say go to Tamanna, one day I finally did and now I'm here all the time, I recommend her to everyone bc I know there's no one that can do such an amazing job.To top it off she's such a sweet heart gives u free advice and shows you tricks you can do to hair or make up.if your looking for someone to do your make up, dye hair or even a bang cut I definitely recommend her she's fabulous! read more

It was my first time cutting my hair with Tamanna. Before starting the process she asked for my opinion and she made her own recommendations and we both agreed on a style and cut - she is a professional. I like the cut - it is simple and very easy to style for a busy working mom. Thanks Tamanna. read more

ur ok .. u did my makeup for my big day but u seemed to be in a rush and not so friendly. i had an appt also. 400 is alot to get makeup done for a bride and get that. and 200 for others. read more

as most have already mentioned, she is very good in what she does, very talented and accurate! women are very picky and careful when it comes to their hair and cosmetics, knowing that Tamana is there is a relief. she listens to what you are wanting then repeats it back to be sure she understood correctly. bottom line: she is the best! she DESERVES your business! read more
