I was…read morelucky to work with Olivia from the studio, who helped me during my trial session and during my wedding day. She was communicative throughout both processes, always checking in to make sure that I was happy with the results. She also gave me great make up and skincare tips during my trial to help me feel my best during the wedding day. Grace's team's aesthetic is focused on a soft glam look, which made my bridal party and me feel like a done up version of ourselves. The looks also held up well despite having our wedding be on a hot June day in SoCal. Would absolutely go back to Grace's team for future makeup needs!

I came across Grace Lin through Yelp and noticed a few of my friends follow her on Instagram. Her…read moreportfolio photos looked absolutely flawless, so when I wanted to refresh my own hair and makeup skills with a private lesson, she was the obvious choice. I emailed her, and she got back to me super quickly. On the day of the lesson, she showed up right on time. I liked her personality too, she was very personable and friendly. You can tell how experienced she is from the way she demonstrates her techniques. We went through everything from full makeup to hair, and we recorded the whole session. I've been rewatching the videos over the last few days to practice. I picked up so many helpful tips I hadn't thought about before, like better ways to shape and enhance my eyebrows, better bronzer application, and little tricks for both hair and makeup. She also mentioned she'd send over a list of recommended tools afterward (I definitely realized I'm missing a few things, like stuff for crimping hair). It was valuable to go back to the basics with her guidance and see exactly how to level up my everyday techniques. Highly recommend if you're looking to improve your skills!

Florist here! I had to write a review on Cynthia's beautiful work on one of my brides whose wedding…read morewas this weekend at Anaheim Hills Country Club. Our shared bride, Caitie, as well as all her bridesmaids, looked absolutely stunning! I've worked many weddings but was very taken aback at how glowy and seamless all of their hair and makeup was at this event. Normally after standing in the sun and dancing, the wedding party begins to look a bit weathered with natural wear and tear on the overall look, especially with eye shadow smearing, etc. Cynthia and her team, on the other hand, did FANTASTIC work, with everyone looking flawless until the very end of the night! Her and her team have such a beautiful talent of accentuating each woman's natural beauty and features while still keeping everthing natural, but elevated. The blush, the highlight, and more specifically the EYES were all just perfect throughout the entire day. I wish I'd known about this team before my own wedding in 2024, and I will absolutely be referring her to all our future clients.

Their online booking system was very straightforward and easy to book, and I was able to book a "Hollywood Waves" session with Nicole. It was nice that they offered the $45 price without hair wash. It's a small shop located inside the Colonnade Mall on South Lake Ave. You can park in the parking lot in the back and it's located on the bottom floor of the Mall. Nicole was very sweet and I showed her a few pictures of inspiration. I liked that she listened to what I wanted, I had mentioned that my hair tends to frizz when I have curls so I'm glad she was able to tame my hair so it didn't at the end. Nicole is very talented and she made the experience so relaxing, and it seemed so easy to make my hair so beautiful.

Booking and communication was easy and seamless- shout out to Caroline for making the whole process smooth and stress-free! I communicated with Caroline through email to select an artist, schedule a trial and the wedding day, and etc.! She was so patient with me when I didn't have specific details, and never made me feel rushed or frazzled. The artist I ended up going with was Kirsten, and I could not be happier! She was so kind and warm, and she's so good at what she does. Seriously, no notes because the end results made me feel the most beautiful I've ever felt :') 1000% recommend Kelly Zhang Studio for your hair and make up needs!

Booking: booking with Kelly Zhang studios was very easy and straightforward. The packet that they send you is very transparent on the cost of service. My communication with Nancy was punctual and professional. It was also very easy to pay for my services, with reminders of deadlines. Pre-wedding: I did do a makeup and hair trial with Valarie a few months prior to the wedding. It isn't included in the wedding packages, however, I am so grateful I did it because it gave me time to discuss with Val what makeup and hair looks I wanted/liked and how they'd compliment the vibe of my wedding/wedding dress. And also a second day in my life where I felt absolutely gorgeous. Would highly recommend spending some extra money for this. Val was receptive to my feedback and accepted the fact that I was not very adept at makeup/not used to it. She took that in stride and somehow created the vision I wanted, but way better. I teared up the day of my trial imagining self walking down the aisle. Val was also so friendly, it was easy to open up to her and we just talked for 3 hours about everything!! It made it so non-awkward and I really appreciated that. Day of: Val did hair and makeup for myself and 2 other people, one being my mom. My mom, who does not normally wear makeup and is picky about her makeup, could not stop gushing about how beautiful she felt and how flawless her skin looked. Val absolutely nailed it. My sister, who often does her own makeup and was nervous about having someone else do it, was also stunned by Val's makeup and hair. For me, I literally tell my husband everyday that I'll never be that beautiful again. My skin was flawless, and I have a few scars from prior acne, but my base didn't feel caked on. It felt light and natural. My makeup lasted all night, with a few touch ups of powder and lipstick that Val provided me. I definitely cried the waterworks and my makeup did not smudge at all!! My updo lasted until the very end after I had been on my dance floor for 2.5 hours straight. Post wedding: no breakouts! My initial pictures taken by guests made me look stunning (and these aren't even the professional ones!) Would highly recommend Val and Kelly Zhang studios. They are professional, listen to your desires, but also are willing to take some creative direction if you aren't a pro in makeup or hair. If you want to feel absolutely gorgeous, stunning, beautiful, radiant, and beyond satisfied with your hair and makeup, go with Val & Kelly Zhang studios! Will absolutely be asking Val for all my professional makeup needs in the future!

My make up artist was not in the unit so I called their remote receptionist who informed me that the artist will be right there to open the door. The artist called me to inform me that she didn't come because she was unsure if her schedule started at 8:45 or 10:30. Instead of verifying her start time with management she didn't show up. Since the artist is coming from the Westside I would have to wait for nearly 90 minutes before she starts the appointment. I won't be calling them back. I had to do my own make up for my event. On an upside, they're remote receptionist is very responsive. So I give them an extra star for decent customer service.
