    Prom Make-up
    Marianela R.

    Maribel did my makeup for my prom. It was amazing. All my friends complimented me on it. She did it exactly how I wanted it. She gave me suggestions on how to apply my makeup and listened to my concerns. Also, I really liked that she was constantly sanitizing her hands because I am a germophobic. I highly recommend her.

    Thank You, Maribel. I loved my Dapper Day look!

    I have no idea where to start! I found Maribel through the Yelp community and I'm so happy I got in touch with her. I contacted her about doing my makeup for an upcoming event at Disneyland (Dapper Day) and explained to her that I was looking for a classy pin up look for the day. We communicated through email, which is perfect for me because I'm always on the go, and even through her emails I could feel that she really cared. I was nervous about getting my makeup and hair done by a professional because my confidence has never been too up there and I was feeling intimidated by all the things I thought could go wrong or that she would take one look at me and send me away *laugh* Boy, was I wrong! Maribel was fantastic right from the start. Not once did I feel unwelcome or put off. She was a complete sweetheart who made sure I was comfortable and was very patient with me. I was able to talk with her freely and even when I would twitch while she was applying makeup (my face was fighting it) she never once got frustrated. My hair was done by Tina and she was just as Fantastic! They both kept the atmosphere friendly, humorous and exciting. They worked together in perfect sync and had me randomly laughing or throwing my two cents into their conversations. They even threw a few jokes at my boyfriend, who came with me, and had him smiling all the way. When all was finished, I could not believe the girl staring back at me. I have never been good at taking compliments so all I could do was comment short sentences on my look..but I truly loved it! I felt beautiful and after I left I kept getting compliments on my makeup and my hair all day. The best part was that, through heavy sun, sweating, enjoying rides and eating, my makeup and hair stayed put and I never had to retouch once. I've only ever put makeup on myself how ever I could and watching Maribel work made me realize just how much more there was to it and just how beautiful and graceful the art of makeup really is. Maribel is an amazing artist whom I was proud to have work on me. I look forward to booking her again for any of my future events.

    My hair stayed put the whole day even after an outfit change! Thanks Tina!

    I used Maribel's team for two events of my Indian wedding and was so happy with their work. They also did hair and makeup for my bridesmaids and my mom. Everyone was super happy with their look. I was especially happy that they were able to please my mom because she is very specific about what she wants and doesn't wear a lot of makeup. She loved what Tina did for her hair and makeup and she looked gorgeous as did everyone in the wedding party. All of the artists really listened to what each girl wanted for their look. They were very professional, punctual and flexible. Also, I think this was a great value compared to other vendors I looked at. I highly recommend them and would use them again for sure!

    Maribel (MUA) did my makeup for a fashion show last year in November. She is great. She caters to your wants and needs. I didn't have anything in mind so I told her she could do what she wanted and in the end I loved it. :) Very friendly and makes you feel comfortable. I would definitely like to work with her again. Picture added :)

    My amazing makeup trial! THANK YOU MARIBEL!!!

    I moved to LA and tried a bunch of salons, but none of them really worked for me. My girlfriend…read morerecommended Kaz, though she warned he's usually booked out about three weeks in advance. At my appointment, Kaz started with a wash and then spent a solid 40-60 minutes on the cut. He's super detailed. It felt like he was paying attention to every single strand. I love how it turned out.!!! After washing, my hair just falls into place naturally. I barely have to style it...just brush and go. I travel a frequently so I didn't get back for about three months, but my hair still held up and looked good. Definitely recommend Kaz.

    This was the best value haircut I've ever gotten in my life. Hair Craft is located on the third…read more(top) floor of a plaza in Little Tokyo. Yuji was my hairdresser, and he was so kind, precise, and skilled with my haircut. When I first walked in, I thought, "ah this really is a no frills hair salon," and I'll admit I was a little nervous since it was my first time and I didn't know what to expect. As soon as I sat down, my nerves went away. Yuji was so gentle and attentive, and I felt really well taken care of. My appointment lasted about an hour and included a wash and cut. Parking is validated for up to two hours, which is definitely enough time. I was so happy with my results. I truly don't know how Yuji creates such magic with his hands! I'll be coming here from now on for my haircuts. Please show Yuji and Hair Craft your support by leaving a generous tip. An establishment like this that truly gives you high quality results for such a generous price deserves to be met with gratitude and good tips. Too many salons are charging an arm and a leg for a basic trim these days, and Hair Craft is not one of them. There were only 1-2 stylists working during my visit, so please be patient and make sure to book at least three weeks in advance. When I booked, they were already scheduled out for three weeks, and I overheard them telling other callers the same thing. Thankfully, it was absolutely worth the wait. I can't wait to come back and will definitely be booking with Yuji again. Thank you Hair Craft for such a wonderful experience!!!

    I'm so happy with my haircut by Celine at Theodora Salon on Olympic Blvd! I have very thick, coarse…read morehair, and my last haircut was back in May. I always need my hair thinned out, but my previous cut wasn't thinned enough, so I ended up wearing my hair half-up for the past four months. Celine completely transformed it! She gave me beautiful layers, thinned my hair exactly the way it needed, and added curtain bangs that frame my face so nicely. My hair feels much lighter, more manageable, and the cut looks great both down and styled. The price is definitely $$$, but for me, I was desperate for a hair remedy. Celine did a stupendous job, and I'm so happy with my haircut. I would definitely recommend her. She knows what she is doing.

    I had a very disappointing experience with this salon…read more I booked my perm appointment in advance, drove over an hour to get there, and arrived early as they requested. However, when it came time to be seen, I was told it had been cancelled. It took multiple receptionists to realize that one of them had accidentally canceled it. The problem is that I was never notified. I didn't receive a cancellation email or text despite having notifications enabled, and no one could explain why I wasn't contacted. If I had been notified, I wouldn't have wasted over two hours driving. What was most disappointing was how the situation was handled. There was no tangible effort to make things right--no attempt to fit me in, prioritize me for another appointment, or offer any accommodation after I had cleared my schedule to see them and spent so much time traveling and waiting. I understand that mistakes happen, but unfortunately, I left feeling like my time wasn't valued, and I can't recommend a salon that handles scheduling errors this way. Additional note: My appointment was originally in August, but I rescheduled for July. I received a cancellation email for the August booking, but never the July one because I didn't cancel it. Edit: They claimed to have offered to schedule me with the soonest available appointment, but what's to guarantee that my appointment isn't mistakenly cancelled again? What's your new procedure to ensure my time isn't wasted? Will I receive an email notification this time? I can also schedule at home for your "soonest available appointment," so ultimately I was still offered poor customer service.
