Review is regarding Chanel only…read more Came to Chanel because I needed someone to remove and install some microlink extensions. I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOO happy I came to Chanel. My hair turned out amazing. The last girl I used to go to would pull out my extensions and it was painful. When Chanel was doing the removal I didn't feel anything at all. She was also very careful during the removal so it wouldn't damage my real hair. She also installed about 300 I-tip extensions for me. She did a amazing job. I've had the extensions on now for a month and they have held on strong. I used to have a lot of fall out, but my extensions have held on great and I'm sure will last me for another couple of months. Chanel is super friendly and very professional. Hair cut is even included when you get extensions. SCORE!!! Love this chick. If you have a chance to have her do your hair...do it. She's amazing.

I honestly have to say Chanel Potje is the best hair stylist hands down. I'm very sad that she…read moremoved hours away but I know her new clients will love her as much as I did. This woman here is very talented and can do anything when it comes to hair and makeup. Oh and did I mention she gives the best shampoos.

Years later with her expanding and opening her own business in Esparto I happily followed her and forever will! She's a PRO at finding what works for you and your hair quality.

Victoria from Wallett is a highly talented artist. I've never felt more beautiful in my life than…read moreon my wedding day (which took place in Sonoma of LY), and it was all thanks to her. Unlike some other makeup artists, she knows how to enhance your natural beauty, rather than caking on a ton of makeup. Everyone in my bridal party said it was the best that they have ever looked as well! In addition to her incredible skill set, Victoria has an amazing, easygoing manner. She goes above and beyond to ensure you are happy with your look! I will definitely book her again for any other important event... can't recommend enough! Thanks Victoria! xxKara

I was vacillating about whether or not to spend the money on hiring a professional makeup artist…read moreand hair stylist for my son's wedding. (My son's wedding date was July 28th at Tre Posti St Helena.) I asked my soon-to-be daughter-in-law if I could pay to use services of her professionals, after the bridesmaids were all set. She said that there simply wouldn't be enough time, as the artists & stylists were also assisting her mother, aunts, grandmothers, etc. Stephanie however gave me a great piece of advice "You will only be a MOG (Mother of the Groom) once, so you won't regret it if you hire someone to look your best!" I began searching Yelp for the St Helena area, and after reading the positive reviews of Victoria Wallet, I sent her an email. She responded immediately and suggested that I set up an appointment for a trial session. Unfortunately, I simply did not have the time to do this as I was leaving to attend my nephews wedding in Tuscany, and then hosting relatives from all over the world coming for my son's wedding. We emailed back & forth about the price, date & time of the wedding, location of my hotel etc. I also emailed her photos of myself. We then set up a date & time for us to chat on the phone. She asked what hairstyle I wanted, and I said, " I want an up do chignon that is classy, but I have baby fine hair." Victoria told me to go on Amazon and purchase "ponytail hair extensions". I was so pleased because the hair extensions were the same color as my hair! The day of the event, I was nervous in my hotel room. But Victoria was on time and quickly put me at ease. She assessed the lighting in my hotel room, laid her tools out on the bed and table and set to work! Victoria has incredible talent and an awesome personality. The hair extensions looked so natural - see the photos I posted! Also, I've never had airbrushing before and I really like how it covered and smoothed out my skin without feeling like the makeup was caked on giving a flawless, natural-looking appearance! I also wore false eyelashes for the first time and they looked fabulous! I loved my hair and it stayed up all night. My makeup held up the entire night with the heat and dancing. Victoria's professionalism and personality made the day of the wedding that much enjoyable.

Licia did such a great job on my son's hair! He came in wanting a really specific color, and she…read moregot it almost exactly how he pictured it. She was honest about why one of the colors couldn't be lightened as much during the first appointment and took the time to explain the process, which we really appreciated. You can tell she cares about doing things the right way and keeping hair healthy instead of over-processing it. My son absolutely loves how it turned out, and we'll definitely be coming back. Thanks, Licia!

I have been consistently visiting Zaryah on a monthly basis for about 8 months! I was seeing her at…read morethe MM RC location but saw her at the Fair Oaks location- such a treat every time. Zaryah always listens and goes above and beyond. The studio is gorgeous, very clean and light music. So relaxing!! I've also been purchasing products as I love how clean, clear and smooth my skin has been!! Super convenient as you can book online or change online as needed. Value is good too as they really go above and beyond - not your basic facial - top notch!!

I normally don't write reviews, but my wife's experience with MM Beauty and Morgan was so…read moredisappointing that I feel I need to warn others. From the very beginning, the process was a mess -- multiple cancelations, last-minute substitutions, and poor communication. This forced us to spend extra time and money traveling, scrambling, and stressing over what was otherwise one of the happiest days of our lives. My wife's wedding day was marred by the lack of reliability and professionalism from Morgan and her team. When my wife raised these concerns directly, Morgan actually acknowledged the countless mistakes and admitted the process had been mishandled. But instead of taking accountability in any meaningful way, she flat-out refused to offer any monetary compensation. The only "solution" she proposed was store credit or a complimentary service -- which is insulting. After going through all of this, why on earth would we ever go back? I think the worst part was her attitude when we called to complain, she admitted fault, she knew we would expect compensation (but didn't offer it), but she didn't seem to be sorry...just upset and defensive and what's not what you want when dealing with your wedding. This experience caused us unnecessary stress and financial loss. If you're looking for a beauty team you can rely on for your wedding or any major event, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. --Josh (husband of the bride)

She was quick to respond to my emails and questions, and was very thorough in her recommendations and prep as we approached the big day. For my wedding day, Linh and her team did hair and makeup and included my bridal party, flower girls, and the moms. She is so kind, friendly, and professional, and truly knows what works best for any style you are going for. Linh is exceptionally talented, and I am so happy with how everything turned out.

I'm extremely picky with my make up and had scoured Instagram for an artist to no avail - Hannah exceeded all of my expectations and will definitely be my go to artist now! She's fairly new to professional freelance artistry, however is a veteran in the makeup game and even taught me so much while she was doing my makeup. I showed her a photo of what I wanted done and she did it just perfectly. She was very kind, careful, and gentle start to finish, and so patient with me when I got picky, haha! She was also responsive & did a house call, plus I booked her for a summer event so I'm excited to be a client again! 10/10 experience, would recommend for full glam looks.
