    Ler me preface, my fiancee decided to try Tiana as she was recommended by a highly reviewed make up…read moreartist who was already booked for our wedding date. We arrived at 8:50am for a 9am appointment. I walked my fiancee to the door to make sure Tiana's house was safe and to my surprise she had a 4 month old and 6 year old at her entrance. Which we were not informed about prior. I assumed that Tiana had a husband or babysitter available while she did my fiancee's hair and makeup trial. I felt it was safe and then I went to grab coffee and was told it only only take 1:30 for her make up and hair. Fast forward to 10:50AM 2 hours later and I pick up my fiancee who's hair hasn't been done and whose make up looks very messy to say the least. In any case, she did not complete the trial in the 2 hours that she promised. I bring $100 in cash as Tiana said she preferred cash as she didn't have her square set up. I give her the cash and ask for change and she says she has no change and to pay later online. I personally don't like owing people so I gave her the full $100 to keep. Next as we're in the car rushing to our cake tasting as Tiana went over by 30 minutes and only did make up, my fiancee and I take a closer look at her make up and find that it's completely uneven (eye liner), the eye lash extensions haven't been cut properly and the foundation is extremely blotchy and blown out. My fiancee said that she showed Tiana photos of the contoured look that she wanted but Tiana didn't have a babysitter and was extremely distracted. End result being we feel we wasted $100 on a trial run that was done by an amateur. As a professional would have not let anyone pay and leave with the job she had done. Additionally, a professional would hire a babysitter to watch her kids while she's working with a paying client. Finally, as a word of caution we both agree that a professional wouldn't spend 2 hours on a quoted 45 minutes botched make up job. Anyways all of that being said my fiancee told Tiana via email we decided not to go with her and she admitted to it not being her best and offered another trial this time free of charge. While I commend this and appreciate it (the reason for 2 stars instead of 1), a professional never should have let us pay if they won't proud of their work. End result. Try Tiana at your own risk, I think she'd be fine for prom or sweet 16 make up but definitely not wedding make up.

    Eyelash Extension PRO! Ive been getting eyelash extensions done for the past 2 years, so I know…read morewhat I want and I know what to look for. Usually I need a fill at the 2, sometimes 3, weeks mark as they start to appear "patchy". I went to Tiana for the first time a few months ago and OMG what a game changer!!! I will never go to anybody else! At 3 weeks, it didn't even look like any of my extensions had fallen out! I was so surprised. They even looked good at 4 weeks! I save so much money for quality work since I've been going to Tiana. Right now she doesn't have her own studio so her 2 adorable kids are home sometimes. But I don't mind at all for the quality of work she does, I can't get it anywhere else for less than $100! Her price is right, her home is clean, and her kids are well behaved. I will continue to drive all the way from the OC to see my Lash girl every month.
