Natalie recently did my makeup for my wedding on 7/14/13, as well as my four bridesmaids, mom and…read moremom-in-law. She was soo great! She did she an outstanding job with all of us, we all arrived to the wedding feeling so beautfiul. I found Natalie on yelp and was a little nervous about having her do my make-up without knowing what she'd be like in advance. I decided to do a pre-trial run through and was blown away by her professionalism and talent. She did such an excellent job, I was so excited to find her. She used great products, and did a phenomenal job of balancing a natural but elegant look. I decided to go with the airbrush makeup, which I would highly recommend- it stayed throughout the night! My bridemaids and moms also loved her! Some of them are pretty particular about getting their makeup done, and they were fully impressed and complimentary about Natalie! She is an absolute sweetheart and a true professional- I would highly recommend Natalie for any event!

Amazing job and so great to work with!…read more I researched Natalie because I had heard about airbrush make-up and she's the only one in the area who offers it... I'm so glad I found her! I did a trial with her before the wedding and she was so pleasant to work with, not to mention she did a great job. She took her time and made sure I was 110% satisfied with what she had done, continuing to get my opinion along the way, not every make-up artist will do that. She came on sight the day of the wedding and everything was perfect! The airbrush looked flawless and I didn't have to touch up the whole night! I got so many compliments on my make-up, and really enjoyed having Natalie be a part of my big day!

About 1 year ago I started seeing Joseph Richard for my back issues from being a full-time…read morehairstylist. My shoulders were tilted forward and my posture was completely off alignment and I was hurting. After my first session Joseph explained to me what I needed to be doing at home to help fix the problem in between my appointments with him. I did exactly as he told me and within a couple weeks I started seeing huge results and feeling myself again. During each session he would explain to me how I ended up in such bad shape. He gave me more of a clear understanding of what exactly he was doing to my muscles and why it is important to continue doing what I'm doing at home for strengthening. Visiting him every 4 weeks for regular maintenance to adjust my muscles and release my fascia has been keeping me going as a full-time stylist. I'm so grateful he knew what was wrong with me and helped me fix an extremely painful situation. Along with this five-star review I have a picture of Joseph's beautiful massage room at Jonathan Douglas.

I told here this would be my first visit, and I wanted to have my hair cut. I was ask to hold for a moment while she checked for availability. She came back to the phone and said her FIRST available time would be MAY 27. no time just a date. I told her that was to far away and thanked her for checking and I would try another salon. I felt like I was being "put off" I was not offered to be put on a waiting list. She simply said "OK" and hung up. I am not rating on the service but on the customer service.

So disappointed and upset at my experience. I went in and explained I'm a natural blonde and get…read morehighlights once a year to brighten things up in the winter and the sun takes care of the rest in the summer, so I wanted something super low maintenance that would grow out as naturally as possible. I let her know I had a wedding coming up and I chose here because they explicitly advertise low maintenance highlights that grow out without harsh lines. As soon as I got back from the shampoo bowl I noticed my blonde was multiple shades lighter than anything I would be able to keep up with, and panicked a bit. Kristen acknowledged it was a lot. When we looked at the line of where the highlights started versus my root she expressed understanding that this wasn't super blended and tried to put some color on it to fix it. There were also spots where the bleach bled, so there are random (literal) spots in my hair that are much brighter than other areas (see pics). I was stressing since this was the very front of my hair that would show in an updo, and the side of my head looked like there was a bald spot from the bleach lol. She assured me I could come back to get some lowlights or some kind of correction so I tipped well and left, despite being pretty anxious. I reached out to Kristen the next day to schedule a fix like she said and this was her response: "Sorry you're not happy with your color! I feel as though my hair coloring technique isn't what you're looking for and another artist will have the technique you're looking for. In this case, we will refund you for your service." What??? I have two weeks until a wedding and if that's not your technique, then why do you advertise highlights with "optimal brightness without noticeable lines or harsh grow out"? Such a strange way of handling it when you don't deliver well. Leaving me high and dry, stressing out trying to find an appointment somewhere rather than fixing it. And I personally think if you can't fix highlights that don't look good or bleach bleeds, you shouldn't be doing highlights in the first place. Like I said strange, disappointing experience. I can see that someone else on here had a similar one, too. Also the owner responded to my google review by accusing me of making the stylist feel "unsafe." The same stylist who had me get my phone out while I was in the chair, look up her personal instagram, follow her, and told me to reach out to her on there to book a lowlight to fix my hair. Very strange thing to do with someone you feel "unsafe with." Accusing me of making the stylist feel unsafe and trying to shame me into deleting my review rather than just admitting they handled this situation poorly and didn't have the ability to deliver or fix their mistakes just underscores my experience.

Cait's portfolio on her Insta is amazing. She caters to blondes specifically, which is why I thought she would be able to restore my dark roots back to a silver-blonde. Unfortunately, if you are not too familiar with hair textures other than caucasians, you will be faced with a challenge. Asian hair takes MUCH longer to process, which is why we are willing to pay an experienced hairstylist who dedicates a whole day to us $700-900... Cait is my girl, she is SUPER AWESOME. Her humor is ON POINT. We both don't take life too seriously, which is why it was so easy working with her! But, if you know Portland, Maine's demographics... you don't get to experience that challenge. After 2-3 days, my hair color faded to where it didn't even look like I had gotten it done...
