I ran a trial with her for my courthouse wedding and she worked with all my concerns regarding makeup. I had switched to a updo for the actual day and that thing did not budge even with my excessive dancing! I tend to run oily after a full day of full face makeup, but I can guarantee that that didn't budge either! She's a full blown one woman army and accommodated not only hair and makeup for me and my mom, but also hair for 5 of my bridesmaids! Would love to work with her again!

I showed her pictures of makeup and hair that I liked and she did exactly what I was looking for! I was so happy with the results and received so many compliments during the evening. It was nice to feel so pulled together and made up, but also not have to stress about doing it myself! I felt like she really listened to what I wanted and was able to execute the vision that I had for my look. She also did hair and light makeup for my eight-year-old daughter who attended the event as well and it turned out perfect! My daughter was receiving compliments all night and it made her night so special! In addition to being an excellent hair and makeup artist, Lisa was very responsive to my email follow up questions and was on time for our appointment. I definitely recommend Lisa and will be using her again!

But I mean it when I say, "Your hair stylist will either break or make your hair". I'm quite simple and tend to focus more on the quality of my hair and haircut itself. Annie has always accommodated my schedule, met my needs in every hairstyle, and is detailed in her work. She's the only person that I schedule that can work with my type of hair. Everyone will have different needs, and she does try her best to accommodate those needs. Would recommend her since she's in Irvine/Mission Viejo. Also, I love how she puts in the effort to decorate her studio!

She has undergone rigorous training that makes her not only only a remarkably versatile artist--able to achieve any look from any time period or era--but if you tell her what you're looking for, she will go above and beyond to research and fine-tune a design aesthetic and she will see it through till the end. I loved working with Rocio; she is punctual, pleasant, creative, intelligent, and her unwavering dedication to the project and her work is truly inspiring. She was also gracious enough to give me a fair rate considering my student status--for which I am very grateful. I can't wait to work with her again!

Genna was my makeup artist for my wedding back in August and she did a phenomenal job! I actually…read morebooked her because she was the makeup artist at one of my bridesmaid's weddings so I had firsthand experience from that time and loved her work. She can replicate pretty much any photo of hair or makeup you show her. When I booked her, I only needed to do a hair trial since it was a new style and I was already confident with her makeup skills. For my wedding, she came to my place and did all 4 girls by herself. Getting ready can take some time but Genna is so fun and easy to talk to that the time flew by. I ended up choosing a natural glam look and low pony with pearls that I loved. All my bridesmaids were super happy with their looks as well. I highly recommend her!

She is very responsive and very good at what she does (which is making you and your girls look stunning)! First, she didn't have a minimum service to book. I had a small bridal party so that was an issue when I was searching for a HMUA. She worked with my wedding coordinator on the timeline, and on the day of, everything went smoothly as we were getting ready (which is so important.. no one wants to be stressed out on their wedding day). Genna was punctual and arrived right on time at 6AM. She had all her equipment on her and set-up quickly (I was quite impressed on how seamless and organized she was, she even brought her own light and chair for the make-up station). She did the hair for 2 of my bridesmaids, make-up for my mom and mother-in-law, and my hair and make-up. Each of showed her a picture of what we wanted/what we were aiming for and she able to re-create. Everyone looked so beautiful!! I didn't do a trial because I live in Boston, but Genna allotted extra time for this the day of the wedding. OMG Genna did such an amazing job on my hair and make-up!! I was so happy with how it turned out and what is even more amazing is that I looked just as good at the end of the night! My hair and make-up lasted through the thousands of tears and crazy dancing at night! Also, I had this huge hairpiece and 15 foot veil that she secured so well! I was afraid that hairpiece would fall out at some point because it is so heavy, but Genna stuck it in good! She also taught my MOH how to take off the veil after the ceremony. Thank you times a million Genna for making me the most beautiful bride!
