    Stayed up with extreme wind!!
    Grace K.

    Sandy is so talented at what she does! She truly cares and listens to what the bride is looking for and articulates it perfectly. I got a trial a month beforehand and it and although it looked AMAZING, I learned I actually wanted a different style. She asked me specific questions about what I wanted to change and on the wedding day, my hair was executed PERFECTLY! I couldn't have asked for anything else. The date of my wedding had a pretty severe wind warning and my hair stayed put all night long, my photographer was even surprised!! I am so grateful for Sandy - she made me feel so beautiful and confident on my wedding day. Couldn't recommend her enough for bridal services. She is also the sweetest person ever and getting to talk to her the morning of the wedding was calming and fun!! 10/10 recommend Sandy

    Sandy and her hairstylist did an amazing job on my makeup + hair! They both made me feel so beautiful that day--probably the most beautiful I've ever felt. The hair stayed all night long, even through all the hours of dancing, sweating, running around, AND my 17-hour flight to Vietnam the next day. My makeup was MATTE and everything was perfect (I didn't even have to touch-up anything). I can't thank them enough for bringing my vision to life. I couldn't have imagined working with a better team and I hope I get to work with Sandy and her team again sometime in the future.

    I originally booked a trial with Sandy because I was torn between an updo, half up half down, or Hollywood waves--and from the start, she made the entire experience feel effortless and exciting. She made me feel so confident and beautiful, especially around something I've always been insecure about: the volume, texture, and density of my hair. In the past, other stylists have complained about how much hair I have, but Sandy celebrated it and made me feel like a star. She was genuinely excited to work with my hair, and it showed. On my wedding day, she absolutely slayed my look with the most stunning Hollywood waves--I've never felt more like myself and more beautiful.

    Sandy and her team are amazing! They brought wedding Pinterest board to life. The makeup/hairstyle was exactly what I wanted. I appreciate she was patient and flexible with me during this whole process. Highly recommend!!

    If you want to look AMAZING for your wedding and in your wedding photos, then you need to book with Sandy. I'm forever thankful that I found her page and that she was available for my wedding date. I knew that the photos will last a lifetime so paying more for a quality makeup artist was a nonnegotiable for me. Plus, she is so sweet and brought my dream Princess Bride look to life

    Sandy is amazing! She perfectly brought my vision to life, making me feel beautiful and confident. My makeup lasted all day and looked flawless in photos and IRL! She really listens to you and makes the entire process enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommend her talent and professionalism!

    I hired Sandy for my wedding on 8/12/23 for bridal hair make up, along with my mom, and sister. She is very organized and had an outlined schedule of when she was doing who's make up or hair. She came to our hotel and was on time. Provided us touch up kits for later. I had my trial with her and she did an amazing job. I couldn't stop looking at myself! When it came to my wedding I requested little changes and she made sure I was content with my make up and hair. Also, she even tested hair extension clips on for my hair trial. Aside from her work she is so sweet! She made it very fun for my family and bridesmaids. She ensured I was comfortable and is very easy to talk to. We joked the entire time while doing my make up and it made me feel so relieved for a moment on my stressful wedding morning. Her artistry and attention to detail is unmatched and I'm very glad I found her for my make up in Vegas. My mom felt the most beautiful she's ever felt in years of her life thanks to Sandy. Her pricing is great as well! Her response time is quick and communication is clear, she made it so easy for me. Thank you so so much Sandy!

    Sandy is amazing! I would give her 10+ stars if possible. She did my makeup and hair for my family photo shoot. I love how the makeup was not cakey at all and translated really well in my photos! I noticed my make up lasted a very long time even without touch up. I have monolid eyes and a lot of makeup artist I've been to struggled to do my eye makeup and create a look that compliment my eyes. But Sandy did such a good job and made my eyes look bigger with her technics. She gave me a lot of tips on how to apply my eyeshadows and eyeliner as well before cause I was so happy with the result! She is professional and attentive. I felt like time just passed by during our session because she was so funny and positive to be around. My friends who is very picky even wanted to book her for her wedding after seeing how well she did on me. I highly recommended Sandy! She's the best !

    She also did my hair!

    Sandy is probably the only makeup artist who has ever understood the type of makeup look that I wanted. I have asian eyes so I'm always worried that make up artists will try to create makeup looks that they normally do on normal lids as opposed to monolids. I gave Sandy several reference pics and SHE UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT! And as a bonus, she's super sweet and friendly Totally recommend her!

    Joyce L.

    Vegas!! Y'all are lucky to have Sandy in the area! She's really friendly and easy to talk to so the whole experience was really relaxing. Also during the session, she was so gentle I felt like I was being pampered at a spa. My everyday makeup is pretty simple so I was excited to let Sandy do her thing when I asked her to go full glam on me. I usually stick to neutrals so I was glad that she used eyeshadow colors that wasn't too outside of my comfort zone. Overall I loved my final result! Love how she went all out, but I still looked like me. Highly recommend!

    I have been coming to Sandy for my makeup and hair needs for over a decade. She's my go-to gal anytime I need my makeup done. I've hired her for glam for weddings, special events, and photo shoots. No matter the occasion, Sandy always delivers exactly what I'm looking for. Some of my events have been in extreme heat or for long extremely long hours but the makeup Sandy puts on does not budge!! Aside from her beauty skills, Sandy is super sweet and accommodating. I once overslept for an appointment for my best friend's wedding and Sandy pushed back her work schedule to make sure she was still able to get my makeup done. I have nothing but good things to say about Sandy. Definitely book her if you're in need of an artist who won't let you down!

You would never get bored when doing the make-up with Thy. I would highly recommend her.

    I found Ann on Instagram because I was looking for a hair and makeup artist for my wedding. I…read morereached out to other artists but ended up picking her because she had 20+ years experience in the makeup industry. Another thing that stuck out when I was deciding was when she said she has an eye when it comes to what product looks good on her clients. She also encouraged me to look at her past clients to get a feel of what I wanted for myself. I scheduled a trial with her at her studio in Sunnyvale because I was taking engagement pictures that same day and also wanted to get a feel of how I was going to look for my big day. She arrived on time and we both hit it off very quickly. She asked to see a picture of how I normally do my makeup before she worked her magic. She didn't encourage inspo makeup pictures because she said every face/skin type is different, but she did ask for hair inspo pictures. I really appreciated her expertise since I am not a makeup guru. Not only did she make me feel beautiful, I still looked like myself. The day of my wedding, she came to my house at 6am to make sure I had enough time before my tea ceremony at 10am. Her other colleague also came because my 2 bridesmaids and my mom needed their hair and makeup done. Ann was calm and took her time to make sure she nailed the look. My eyes aren't even so she put tape to make it look as perfect as possible. She kept saying that one eye looked bigger but it wasn't a big deal for me. At the end of the session, I was shocked that I could look that stunning!!! Everyone complimented on my hair and makeup that day. I am so glad I found Ann to be part of my special day. She is extremely professional and easy to work with. I hope she continues to make every woman feel as beautiful as she made me feel!!

I cried, ate, laughed a lot and my make up still looked pristine during the after party! She took a while to respond on emails sometimes, but she was still able to address all my questions and is obviously very knowledgeable. Her bridal package included a touch up kit, which i didn't use at all. It's the most beautiful make up i've ever had and it's just so perfect to experience it on my wedding day. This is coming from a girl with minimal make up experience, who always hated the make ups i got from make up artist because they either is too thick or just doesn't suit me at all. I even had a minor chemical burn above my lip 2 days before my wedding and she covered that up perfectly too.

My makeup was prefect! She covered all the areas I requested and prepped the makeup in case of tears. My hair was beautiful and she knew what to do to accentuate the accessories I had. Her assistants are skilled but may be off the mark sometimes. My bridesmaid's foundation was a few shades too light as she has a darker complexion. She didn't notice until after everything was already on and didn't want the artist to redo all her work. It was still decent but something to keep in mind. Don't look any further for a makeup artist as she is worth the price!
