I decided at the last minute to get my hair and makeup done as I was attending a wedding. I…read moreusually just get dolled up by myself but this time I wanted it extra nice! I reached out to several makeup artists however they were all booked on the preferred Saturday. Luckily, Wendy was able to take me on short notice. Wendy is a freelance makeup artist so she doesn't have a studio. She is mobile and comes out to your location to complete your beauty needs. The whole process took about an hour and a half. Time flew by because it was so fun chatting with her. She's so bubbly and sweet. On the morning of my makeup/hair session, Wendy arrived on time with all the essentials. She uses quality products to achieve the glamorous or natural look that you want. I wanted defined eyes and neutral lips. I didn't want anything too dramatic because I would be going from a day look into the evening. My makeup turned out nice. I also had my hair styled by her as well. I requested soft curls and she delivered. The curls stayed in tact until the end of the reception. Overall, I was happy with my enhanced "natural" look.

From the moment I first communicated with Christina, I could tell how sweet she was! I was so happy…read moreto have found her, and was super grateful she was available for my wedding day! She drove out over 1.5 hours away to us, and was super kind to myself and my bridal party. All four of us loved our hair! Leading up to the wedding, she was always quick to reply and very helpful when I had questions about styles or hair extensions. She was super accommodating with me, given I wanted a completely different hair style than what we tried at my trial. She definitely executed exactly what I wanted! I was very happy with my hair, even through the end of the night! Thank you Christina!!!

Christina is INCREDIBLE and I love her so much!! She did my hair for my wedding and I truly could…read morenot have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, Christina was the perfect blend of professional, outrageously talented, and genuinely one of the sweetest human beings I've ever met. She arrived right on time (such a blessing on a hectic wedding day!), and made the whole process smooth, fun, and completely stress-free. The trial beforehand was amazing. She patiently walked me through several different styles until we found the perfect look, and she listened so well to everything I wanted. She's incredibly easy to talk to, understands your vision right away, and brings it to life even better than you imagined. On the big day, my hair looked absolutely stunning and held up beautifully all night long. I felt so confident and beautiful, and I owe so much of that to her. Christina is the literal greatest and I cannot recommend her enough for your wedding or any special event. Book her, I promise you will not regret it!

Just a couple of weeks ago I had her on a shoot with my clients and I and she was so quick and efficient. She makes everyone feel and look their best. She is worth everyy penny I've invested in her helping me feel my best. Also, I would like to add that I have very sensitive skin that has weird texture from acne scars. She is the only person who can do my face and not make it look Cakey. I work from 8 am until late most nights and it stays on beautifully! Ps. She made a special kit for just gluten free products since I have celiac disease.

Devon's work is extraordinary and I feel fortunate to have met her over 5 years ago. From engagement and wedding photos to maternity, newborn and family photos, Devon has been there to make my friends, family and myself feel our very best! Not only is Devon a hair and makeup wizard, she is also an incredibly sweet person and always makes me feel special. When I first met Devon, I had zero knowledge of how to apply my own makeup and I would encourage anyone who feels that way to reach out to her about a makeup lesson. Most valuable hour ever! If you're looking for someone for a special event, look no further! Devon is your girl!

She really is a master of her craft, and makes sure all the details are perfect. My hollywood curls lasted all day long, even with a nighttime wedding!

She is great at color matching (she explained why certain colors don't work for me) and very intentional about making sure the look lasts the night without feeling heavy.

Cannot wait to book her again for my next event! 10/10 would recommend.

DISCLAIMER - This is from a makeup trial in 2020 and wedding in 2021…read more It took me time to get the courage to write this review, because Crystal seems like such a sweet person. However, I don't want anyone else to have an experience similar to mine. First off, I think her makeup skills are amazing and loved her makeup work. She took into consideration my photographer's editing style and how the makeup would show up in the photos. She's also a bubbly person that was very easy to talk to. Makeup Trial in 2020: Makeup turned out great in the photos. It took me a bit to get comfortable with how it looked in person, because I wasn't used to wearing much makeup, but she talked me through everything and wanted to make sure I was comfortable. The makeup still looked great at the end of the night though too - and this is after doing an ocean-side photoshoot. The cons: - She ran 5-10 minutes behind schedule and the trial ended up taking longer than expected due to struggles with my hair; so I had to rush to make it to my engagement shoot. However, I did appreciate how Crystal still took the time to listen and try to correct things. - My hair - I wanted a half up, half down w/ curls hairstyle. In a call beforehand, I had explained to her how my hair has a difficult time keeping curls and that I usually can only get a hold with a straightener. I can't remember if she used a curling wand or a curling iron, but the curls were already falling flat during the trial. By the time of the photo shoot, my hair was lightly wavy. By the end, it got pretty flat. She did offer a discounted retrial to try another technique to see if my hair would hold better. I didn't end up doing a retrial since I had to reschedule my wedding. (Rescheduled) Wedding Day in 2021: I had booked Crystal for makeup for my wedding for myself and my mom. The days beforehand, she mentioned how she was getting vaccinated. Skip forward to the morning of my wedding. I wake up a little over 2 hours before our appointment time, and I notice a text from Crystal that was sent less than 6 hours before our appointment. She says she's so sorry, she's been having chills and nausea and that she's unsure if she can cover and she's reached out to her immediate artists. I don't hear from her again until 1.5 hours before our appointment, she confirms that none of her artists have reached back out to her yet. I'm not sure, but it seems that she became symptomatic because of the vaccination. At that time, it was known that people get side effects from vaccinations, so I thought it was unprofessional to schedule a vaccination right before a booking. It also did not help that Crystal was unable to find a replacement. It was such a stressful morning... In the end, luckily my friend found someone else available to do my makeup and my mom went to a salon.

So immensely happy that I was able to find Haley for my wedding makeup! She came highly recommended…read moreby another makeup artist who gave her rave reviews, and she did not disappoint. Through a consultation call, a trial, and the makeup on the day, Haley showed herself to be not only a professional but also an artist and master of her talent. She was able to take my concerns, opinions, and Pinterest board/inspo and create the perfect wedding look that fit my vision on the day and photographed AMAZING! She was always checking in throughout the process and was happy to change or tweak things. Communication with her was easy and breezy. The makeup and hair stayed on through the crying, the laughing, the dancing, and the after party. Truly amazed!

From the moment we started working together, Haley was exceptional. Her sweet and calm personality…read moreis exactly what I needed on a busy wedding day. During my trial, we experimented with three different hairstyles because I was having a hard time deciding. She was incredibly patient and supportive throughout, focusing on exactly what I wanted and needed. Leading up to the wedding, Haley helped answer questions about extensions, skincare, and what to avoid leading up to the wedding and gave recommendations about how to ensure I look my absolute best. On my wedding day, Haley intently listened to the bridesmaids' hairstyle and makeup preferences to make them each feel comfortable and confident. She brought along a second hairstylist (Christina) who was equally just as amazing and skilled in all different types of hair. My MOH has extremely thick hair, and was able to make her hair look stunning throughout the day. When it was my turn, Haley asked if I wanted any changes from the trial, and my answer was simple "No, I trust you" and I really did trust her. The wedding day makeup came out even better than the trial!! I truly have never felt more beautiful in my life--when I saw my hair and makeup in the mirror, I was speechless. Haley's professionalism, talent, and warm personality made the whole getting ready experience truly special. She truly has special a gift for making her brides feel beautiful.

I met Marilyn and her sister at a bridal expo, and my first impression of both of them was…read moregreat--very personable, warm, and professional. As someone who works in the hair industry myself, I appreciated their energy and skill. We connected on Instagram, I reached out with availability, and I was genuinely excited to work with them. I even offered a deposit, which they declined... The trial went really well. I explained that the timing of my engagement photos depended on my fiancé's custom suit being finished. Everything seemed clear and straightforward. I also asked for recommendations for someone who could do a midi horseshoe haircut on me, and Marilyn said she could. I reached out to schedule because no she doesn't offer online booking... didn't hear back for about a week, she texts me if I wanted to come in... since I didn't hear back ... ended up going somewhere else. Later on, I tried booking another haircut. We agreed on a time, but she canceled two hours before. We rescheduled, and again she canceled two hours before, this time due to her mom being in the hospital. I tried to be understanding--I've been through similar with my own mom--so I gave her space. Even if she was going through stuff she could have told me she needs more time off. Even 2nd time around she could have messaged or called me at midnight saying I'm not well and on a good head space ... But then I noticed she was still posting on Instagram a few weeks later and pinged her. When I reached out again to move forward with my engagement hair, she told me she was mostly available after 3 PM because of her day job. She did offer more availability if she had 2 weeks notice to take a day off to open her day up more or offer a recommendation for someone with more time ...I said I could work around that schedule or 2-3 weeks notice so she could take a day off since I already paid for the trial and loved the trial look. I let her know December was hectic, so we likely needed to shoot in January or February. I was still willing to give a deposit and finalize dates. Out of nowhere, she sent a message saying we shouldn't work together anymore, claiming it was due to me calling her out for being online ( I pinged her to see if she was back to work ) and "contradicting" myself because I wasn't ready to book in December--even though I had already explained the logistics with it being the holidays and I was ready to schedule for January when confirmed and was willing to send a deposit... Sounds to me she needed to push for me to schedule in December for Xmas money or much needed cash for something big. After looking back at everything, the red flags were the multiple last-minute cancellations and the inconsistent communication. Even when trial was booked... I was told it was at the Phoenix Suites in Anaheim. No suite number no buzzer or information... I myself have a salon suite at Salon Republic and when clients book... I five them the suite number, buzzer code etc. I had to ask her how to do I enter or is there a buzzer code? Their work is genuinely beautiful, and her sister is incredibly kind, but reliability matters. Based on my experience, I wouldn't feel comfortable recommending them to someone who needs dependable booking and follow-through.
