Marwa is an very creative and knowledgable makeup artist. I first met Marwa at the trail. She…read morelistened to what I wanted, looked at my outfits and created looks for me that I was delighted with. She took notes and photos throughout the trail, which she came prepared with on my big days. On the day of my trial, she noticed that my eyes were watering (I have dry eyes). She suggested that we try putting some eye drops. To my surprise, my eyes stopped watering. Marwa remembered to bring the eye drops on both my wedding and reception day. The looks she created for me on the days of my wedding and reception were even more incredible than the trial. She is able to work with brides from different ethnicities, producing great results for all skin types and colours. She is very helpful as well. I lost the back of my one of my earrings just as I was about to leave for my reception. Marwa was very sweet to let me use the backs of one of her earrings. She is very responsive, and it very easy to communicate with her via email or phone.

It was such a pleasure working with Marwa. She was recommended by our photographer as we were…read moreaiming for a stylized vintage theme for our engagement photo shoot. Our photographer said that Marwa was the best, so I decided to contact her and I definitely was not disappointed. If you're looking for a professional make-up artist for any event, I would HIGHLY recommend her for the following reasons: 1. professional as well as personable: From the get-go, Marwa was always very professional and reliable. We had a pre-meeting to discuss the look that I was going for. She came prepared and asked all the appropriate questions. Her interactions and communications (via email, phone, or in person) were always very professional. She is also very personable, friendly, and easy to work with, which brings me to #2: 2. collaborative: Marwa really worked with me to achieve just the look(s) that I was looking for. I showed her my ideas and she showed me some of hers. She is flexible and is really attuned to what her clients want. She takes into account the event, the environment (indoors vs. outdoors), outfits, etc...She thought of things that I didn't even think would influence my hair and make-up. She also made suggestions taking into account my desired look. I always felt very comfortably talking to her and she was always receptive to my feedback and requests. 3. technical skill: It is clear that Marwa has the proper training and technical skill to deliver a variety of looks. Her competency is evident in her dexterity and her attention to detail. I also appreciated that she truly took her time in achieving my look. Never did I feel rushed or that I was inconveniencing her. While she was doing my hair and make-up, she would always "check-in" with me for my input. She put me at ease and helped me de-stress about my upcoming shoot. Overall, Marwa was a complete joy to work with. Needless to say, I LOVED my hair and make-up for my engagement shoot. It was just the right amount of make-up to "show up" in the pictures, but also still looked totally natural and not overdone. My hair and make-up were complete at 11am and our shoot was 330pm - 7pm. In that 8 hour span, I never had to touch anything up or reapply any make-up other than lipstick, and that was only because I ate lunch :) She did such an awesome job and I couldn't have been happier.

I had several troubles contacting them at first in order to receive a contract and put down a deposit, which was very frustrating in the moment. But once everything was finally sorted out I later had a bridal trial and then it was the big day! They traveled to a hair salon close to our venue in order to do my bridal party's makeup and hair simultaneously, but they would probably travel anywhere! They were on time, cleaned up all their supplies, and were very appreciative to their salon staff for using their space. I found their pricing fairly reasonable for bridal makeup services and I especially liked how the tip was included in the total price for both my trial and our day-of makeup services. My bridal party was pretty impressed and everything went very smooth the day of.

Yesterday was my birthday and this is how a $168 gift to myself turned into a complete failure…read more I had an eyelash extensions appointment with a different salon that was unexpectedly canceled last minute, therefore leaving me to call around town to find someone who could fit me in on such a short notice. I was able to connect with Jori (the owner) at roughly 1PM and was scheduled with Brier (the stylist) by 4PM. The service took roughly three hours to complete and this is the completed work.... I am astonished that my service turned out to be so horrible when a reviewer below had the same work done, by the same stylist, and had better results. The eyelashes were promptly removed this morning by a different salon because they were beyond repairing without starting over again. I believe I am making a reasonable/accommodation by request a refund for the cost of the service and allowing the stylist to keep the 20% tip for the products used. However, the owner disagrees and believes that I should be sympathetic to the stylist because she was able to accommodate me on a special occasion (as if I wasn't paying for service to be done) who is a contracted employee who rents out space in the salon. Lastly, the owner said I should accept a partial refund due the scarce amount of customers booking appointments due to the COVID pandemic. Additionally, the owner offered to give me the refund I am request in a form of a gift card to the salon to be used for other services but again, that is impractical given that I do not plan to return. I also find it unprofessional that Jori has stopped responding back to my messages to completely rectify the situation at hand. If you wish to get quality eyelashes done, I do not recommend Blush Beauty Room. (PS the last photo is the service/style of lash extension I as hoping to receive.) UPDATE: I stopped by the salon today to dispute the service in person and I received a full refund! Jori stopped responding back to my text messages (picture attached below) and this was the only option I was left with. Since she was servicing another client I offered to sell them the gift card instead to receive the refund back in cash to which she declined and directly refunded me instead. I will NEVER be coming back and I will NEVER recommend this place to anyone. Also, she told me in person that she already reported this google review because it was false (pictures and text messages don't lie) and cursed me out as I was leaving... do better!!

I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a perfect venue for preparing and relaxing before the big event. The space is beautiful, spacious, and well-equipped with an assortment of essentials (including things that you wouldn't normally find at a makeup studio, like extra phone chargers and anti-static spray). Brett was fun, friendly, and low-key; exactly what you need to be to handle several consecutive hours with a bridal party (no matter how chill we thought we were). The only reason I'm not ready to give this five stars is that we all noticed a significant quality difference between Brett's hair and makeup work and that of her colleague. The second girl was friendly and gave it her best shot, but clearly not as experienced or confident as Brett was. I was in the non-Brett group, and all of us did a fair bit of adjusting in the bathroom after she finished with us. Certainly not a big deal (and we were still pretty happy overall), but the contrast with Brett was noticeable and mildly disappointing.

From exploring the many wonderful options on their website, to working with Lori to find the best option for our event, she made it interesting and easy. The contract was clear and I appreciated a "day of call" just to make sure we had all our questions answered. We had about 30 Cub scouts, aged 6-11 who all learned to twist balloons into animals and other shapes. Lori helped prep the adult helpers and easily managed to help each child just when they needed it. There were some pretty special smiles after learning a new skill. We had a lot of excited scouts and with so many other entertainment options available from A Touch of Magic Entertainment, we look forward to exploring more options for future scout events.
