Tiffany and her team did such an incredible job on hair and makeup for my wedding, I would…read moredefinitely recommend her to anyone! To start off, she spent so much time with me for the trial (more than planned), making sure we had a chance to try a couple different things without any rush, which was so helpful. On my actual wedding day I loved everything she did, and my new husband said I looked like a movie star! I liked the trial looks when we did them, and Tiffany genuinely listened and understood what I wanted to tweak. When the big day came and we had the details set from the beginning, everything came out looking even better. She specializes in a natural-but-enhanced look and really nailed it - I didn't feel or look like I was caked in makeup, I just looked like the absolute best version of myself! Trying to find pictures to include here I struggled to find ones that seemed like they were showing off the makeup - but that's kind of the point. The makeup wasn't super showy (exactly as I wanted), it just made me look really great in every picture! And this is from someone who often doesn't like pictures of myself. The other artists she brought for our officiant and moms (both in the pictures I'm including) also did a great job. They handled mature skin, thick/unruly hair, and curls beautifully. I've never seen my mom's shoulder length curly hair look so good! They were also great company all morning, which is so important.

My experience with this makeup artist was extremely disappointing. Throughout the trial session,…read moreshe kept checking her watch, which made me feel rushed. The final result was nothing like what I expected, and I was extremely unsatisfied. When I politely expressed that I didn't like the makeup look, she got visibly frustrated, placing her arm on her waist in an unprofessional manner. Any requests for adjustments were met with reluctance and annoyance. After deciding that I didn't want her to do my makeup but would still proceed with her services for my other family members, she canceled the contract herself. While she's technically not obligated to return the retainer fee, she told me she would -- but never did. That lack of follow-through was very disappointing and unprofessional. Also, be aware that her contract does not allow cancellations due to dissatisfaction within 60 days of your event, so if you're considering a trial, make sure to do it well in advance. I would not recommend her based on this experience.

This is where I can get caught in a rabbit hole and had a great experience. I went in and I forgot who helped me, but she was SO AWESOME! I told her what I have and what I want and she helped me find two colors. The second one was something I didn't even consider, but now I wear it regularly. Service was so great that I decided to stock up on concealer, powder and setting spray - I spent more than I planned but it was basics I needed. What I always like is learning new techniques like applying concealer to make me look younger. I also set up an account so they know on my next visit I recycled a few containers and they can track when I'm eligible for my free lipstick, etc. I have been a MAC fan since the 90s.

First of I want to give a huge shout out to the nine two five salon team both in Hayward and…read morePleasanton. I found out my goddaughter's hair was severely matted and started calling around. My boyfriend's childhood friend who also happens to be a hairstylist in the San Ramon area told me to call nine two five salon. I called the Hayward location right away since I'm very familiar with them and have gone to them in numerous different occasions. I called and spoke with Rebecca from the Hayward location and asked if anyone can detangle hair in either of their location. She got back to me in less than 15 minutes and was able to find Madison for me from their Pleasanton location. I booked right away for a Thursday morning appointment and the rest was history. We showed up Thursday morning and Madison did her thing. One of my biggest appreciation for Madison is her compassion for my goddaughter. She saw the stress in her eyes and really wanted to help her preserve her hair. Madison communicated with both me and my goddaughter about the what-ifs and how she was gonna proceed in case she couldn't save her hair but she made sure that every step was explained. Madison was very patient and made sure she didn't stay in one area of her head because her head was going to be tender. Madison brushed out my goddaughters for as long as she could. Honestly, I think the whole process took anywhere from 10-13 hours give or take split between two days. Madison had to move her schedules around just to accommodate my goddaughter. The end result was amazing. My goddaughter was extremely happy and excited with her new hair. She showed it off to me and sent me a bunch of pictures overall being happy and thankful that I found Madison. So if you're looking for someone to do detangling on your hair or really anyones hair, Madison is your go to person. Her rate wasn't bad at all either. All in all, shout out to Madison, thank you for the patience and compassion you've put in on taking care of my goddaughter. Know that it meant so much and you're an amazing hair stylist and an amazing person.

Jasmine is professional, prepared, and a true partner on your wedding day…read more I booked Jasmine because her process was clear and straightforward -- no dynamic pricing, no confusing packages. She locked in my date quickly, accommodated a trial reschedule, and even reworked the timeline to include my mom and mother-in-law when they decided last-minute they wanted makeup too. On the day of the wedding, she was calm, focused, and ready for anything. At one point, my dad came into the bridal suite earlier than expected and immediately teared up -- which, of course, got me crying too. Jasmine had already packed up, but she swooped in without hesitation to do a perfect touch-up just before the ceremony. She also helped me feel emotionally ready. I had a breakout leading up to the wedding, and was feeling really anxious about how I'd look in photos. But Jasmine's expertise (and her very reassuring Instagram reels!) made me feel totally confident. You couldn't even see the hyperpigmentation once she worked her magic. As for my mom and MIL -- they rarely wear makeup and weren't quite sure what they wanted, but Jasmine made them both feel comfortable and look radiant.
