She brought 2 other assistants and showed up on time at our hotel in Pleasanton at 9AM (I needed to be ready by 2PM). Prior to the wedding day, she had asked everyone to prepare some pictures of what they wanted. On the day of, Nina did my hair and makeup, while her assistants did everyone else's. They were incredibly patient and friendly! Some of us were picky about makeup, but that wasn't a problem at all for her assistants. They took the time to ensure that the foundation and lip stick color matched everyone's skin tones. And they made sure that everyone was happy with their hairstyles too. I highly recommend Nina and her assistants to do hair and makeup for any event. Her prices are so reasonable! The pictures came out looking really natural and my makeup and hair held up throughout the night! Thanks, Nina for making us all look good on my special day

Our wedding was held in the early morning and located in the Santa Cruz Mountain. She arrived on time, prepared, and started working. She is very good at what she does especially eye make-up and hair style. My family kept saying how creative and beautiful make-up and hair style were. Her price is very reasonable. She answers your questions in a timely manner and very professional. You can tell that she is very passionate about her works. I was not sure if I need her to stay to do the touch up after the ceremony. She suggested that it is not necessary. She left me some lip makeup for the simple touch up if needed. Her makeup lasted more than 8 hours without any problem. Strongly recommend! I wish that I can give her 10 out of 10 stars instead of 5 stars on yelp. She is super creative, easy to work with and provide you with suggestions based what you prefer. Thank you Nina - You made my day..

I couldn't have had a better experience working with Camille and Liz of Skyla Arts. After viewing…read moretheir beautiful work on social media, I reached out and received a quick response from Liz. Knowing very little about hair and makeup, Liz asked the right questions to pinpoint my style and vision and I immediately felt that I was in good hands. Camille was my hair and makeup artist and she could not have made me feel more at ease. I was looking for an elevated natural makeup look with a classic/romantic updo and was lucky enough to work with Camille on two occasions for my city hall ceremony and wedding reception. I absolutely loved how my hair and makeup turned out and could not believe how beautifully the looks came together. For someone that doesn't wear makeup normally, I felt super comfortable and truly like the best version of myself. Skyla Arts also provides men's grooming which was much appreciated. My husband has very thick unruly hair that he has never been able to tame, so it was a blessing that we did not have to worry about what to do with it on one of the most important days of our lives. Camille did such a spectacular job on him that it even surprised his family! My mom also needed makeup service last minute which Camille was very kindly able to accommodate. My mom loved her makeup experience just as much as I did. So many of our family and friends all commented on how amazing my husband and I looked and multiple family members who interacted with Camille noted how wonderfully lovely and kind she was. Thanks so much Camille and Liz!

Amy was an absolute joy to work with. She was a recommendation from a friend, and when I initially…read morereached out to her, she was professional, prompt, and even offered to do a phone call with me so we could get a feel for each other. I don't typically wear much makeup and I've had... mediocre experiences with wedding makeup in the past as part of the bridal party. I voiced these concerns to Amy during my trial, and together we came up with a game plan for a look that made me feel gorgeous while still looking like me. On the Big Day, Amy and her second makeup artist were on-time and simply flew through all the bridesmaids. We were ahead of the timeline the whole morning, which helped start the day on a more relaxing note. I was thrilled with my final look; my hair and makeup lasted literally all night, except for the lip gloss (which is normal, and she provided a touch up for, which was perfect!). I truly can't recommend Amy enough for future brides!

They showed up early and had an organized setup. They got everything done right on time, and Amy knew exactly what to do for the "staged" getting ready photos that the photographer needed. For the process leading up to the wedding day, Amy was always super responsive, and she was very helpful during my hair and makeup trial. I was nervous about looking too made-up and not like my true self, and she did a beautiful job meeting all my needs. I was so happy with how I looked! She also is more reasonably priced compared to other wedding hair and makeup artists, and her quality is amazing! I would recommend Amy and her team to anyone for their wedding.

We did a hair trial in advance. She nailed every look I wanted to try. I chose to hire her for both my hair and makeup for my SF City Hall wedding! For the big day, Kristina delivered a FLAWLESS soft glam makeup look and chic clean bun. I was truly radiating and felt my best self. She even packed me a to-go makeup kit for touch ups throughout the day. What a nice touch! On top of it all, Kristina is a super sweet and nice person. So nice to chat with and put me at ease from the start! When things get crazy with wedding planning and the "day of" stress, she's who you want to have in your corner! Super friendly, talented and dependable. I cannot recommend Kristina enough! I will absolutely hire her again for future hair and makeup needs. Maybe the future baby shoot? ;)

Kristina is so sweet and amazing at what she does. I asked to be ready by 1:30 and she arrived at my house by 11 and was gone before 1! I have oily/combination skin which I find difficult to work with but Kristina worked her magic, my makeup lasted all day and my face never got too shiny. I showed her a photo of the hair style I was hoping for and she executed perfectly. I knew Kristina was great at what she does by looking at her portfolio, but the trial really reassured me and the day of went perfectly, I couldn't have asked for a better artist to have worked on my hair & makeup for my day. I'd recommend Kristina for anyone looking for a hair and/or makeup artist for any occasion!

I scheduled a trial and met her in San Jose at her studio a few weeks before my wedding. I showed her some photo inspiration and she brought my vision to life! What I appreciate most about Hanh is that she is receptive to feedback and constantly checked in to ensure I was happy with everything. She calls herself a perfectionist and was so attuned to all the little details - from choosing the right lashes for my face to ensuring every piece of hair was sitting perfectly. On my wedding day, she met me at my hotel and came prepared with all her makeup and equipment. She was fast and efficient, finishing everything within 2 hours. I've never worked with a HMUA who cared so much about her clients and the quality of her work. I felt so beautiful and glamorous during my wedding - and my hair and makeup remained perfect throughout the night despite all the sweating and dancing! If you're looking for a HMUA who cares about the details, truly listens to you, and brings your vision to life, Hanh is the person to go to. Thank you so much for being a huge part of my successful wedding, Hanh!

By the end of the night I'd taken my hair partially down myself (I wanted to let loose for the dancing), and it still looked effortless. We did a trial beforehand, and she took my notes seriously. The wedding-day look was even better than the trial. She also has a genuine understanding of Asian eye shapes and how to adjust for them, which made a real difference in how my makeup looked in photos. Her team of three kept everything on schedule even after my bridal party (four new moms running on baby time) started thirty minutes late. Truly impressed from trial to final touch-up!!
