I have to say THIS WOMAN knows her stuff!! As a professional photographer I have had the…read moreopportunity to work with Teresa on three separate occasions! The first was with a fabulous wedding in May of 2009 at the Purple Orchid Inn & Spa, we also worked together on the Keyrose Corporation Anniversary and the most recent was an Art Deco Starlet photoshoot. I have to say this woman makes my visions come true! I asked for the specific hair and makeup and Teresa delivered in a major way. We had some time restraints on this shoot and we were all running under pressure and eventhough we were racing against time and losing natural outdoor lighting, Teresa worked harder as we did and the shoot was a success! I have uploaded a few shots from the shoot, and I am excited to announce that I have extended a freelance position to Teresa as our in-house Studio Hair and MUA......as soon as our studio is open, we will offer new and beautiful packages to our clients! Can't wait! In the meantime, she and I will continue to collaborate and create beautiful imagery! If you are in Teresa's hands, you are in GREAT HANDS! Go get your BEAUTY ON!!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Wagma! She did my makeup for my engagement photos, and I was…read moreabsolutely blown away by the results. From the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease. She is incredibly professional, but also so warm and personable--she really made me feel like I was in great hands. The makeup itself was flawless. She listened to exactly what I wanted and somehow made my vision come to life even better than I could have imagined. My makeup was soft yet glamorous, and it lasted all day without any touch-ups. I felt so confident and beautiful during my engagement session, and that was all thanks to her amazing skills. What I loved most is that she took the time to explain the products she was using and made sure I was comfortable with everything throughout the process. She truly customizes the look to fit your features and personal style, which is something that really stood out to me. If you're looking for a makeup artist who is not only talented but also kind, professional, and truly dedicated to making you feel your best, I highly recommend Wagma.

It's not easy cutting Asian hair, like mine, but ever since I met Megha at the Cinta Aveda Salon,…read moreshe makes it such a beautiful experience! She's been cutting my hair since July 2011 and I've never looked back...or better! Her calm disposition and temperament is ideal...she's chatty when you are and not when you are. Megha's an intelligent and bright young woman with a lucrative future in front of her. She's one of those bright shining stars you want to attach yourself to and get to know. I wish her the best of luck in her new endeavors and I look forward to seeing her again, in the next 16 weeks! Thank you for taking such wonderful care and cut, of my do!

I tried a couple of people and they always manage to make my Asian eyes look smaller than they already are, as if I really need that, right? Finally, a friend suggested that I check Megha out and I am soooo glad I did. I showed her a picture of a similar look I liked, and what I loved about her was that was able to make it to look good on MY face. The end result was amazing and she made me feel beautiful and glamorous. I kid you not, the first thing the photographer said to me was, "Your makeup looks AMAZING, who did it?" It definitely was an ego boost to be complimented by a professional! If you want need a MUA for your event, photo shoot, makeover, wedding, call her!

While Anamika delivers beautiful makeup, this two star review is due to (1) poor communication…read morethroughout the weeks before the wedding, (2) lack of flexibility with natural hair, (3) being late on the wedding morning and not bringing tools for the reception look. 1. Communication - I don't live in the Bay Area so I reached out to Anamika a couple months before the wedding to plan a trip around the time she would be free for a trial. She didn't respond for two weeks, and only finally responded when our wedding planner stepped in. I had booked with her 10 months before the wedding at which time the communication was fine - after giving the deposit (50% of service so 1000$) she was unresponsive. 2. I have very curly hair that takes quite some time to straiten and usually is frizzy when straitened. I explained this to Anamika when booking and she said it was fine as long as I tried my best and it was clear that I had gone through all of my hair with a strait iron before she arrived. At the trial she looked at my hair and asked me if I had read the contract, that she required very straight hair. I explained that this is the best that I could do. I would be fine to just go for a natural style or something else that would take less time if this didn't work for her. I showed her my hair in natural curls and said that we could just arrange the hair without heat styling - whatever is easiest. In the end I felt shamed for my natural hair and she put such little effort into it during the trial. At one point, I even asked her if - given that she was uncomfortable with my hair, we could cancel the contract, but she refused. I actually got 2 Brazillian blowouts before the wedding to make my hair fair enough and purchased an additional set of extensions at another length to be easier to blend. 3. On the wedding morning Anamika was about 20 minutes late to start with hair and makeup. We actually ran behind schedule for my sari draping, and the sari draper had to make other accommodations as she would be late for her next appointment if she waited for me. For the reception look, I had e-mailed her saying I wanted to do crimped hair and she replied that as long as my hair was strait it would be fine. My hair was strait (helped along by the two chemical Brazilian treatments) but she simply said she didn't bring her crimping tools and proceeded to do a typical blowout look with extensions.

Wouldn't recommend her at all. I wish I saw this Yelp page of her before I booked with her she is…read morehorrible at communication. I posted on a Facebook group after sending her a few emails after booking with her months ago but she didn't respond until someone sent her my post about my feelings of not getting a response from her for over a week! She also was posting nonstop on social media and me being ignored felt like I wasn't even a priority. I thought she understood where I was coming from especially about communication because I dealt with someone before her who just simply did not care either but I guess I was wrong. I felt as if she used my money for her fees and that's the main thing that caught her attention. Sorry but that's how it felt and the fact that she didn't even apologize for making me feel this type of way and made it feel like I was overreacting, I just simply asked for my money back. I wouldn't book with her if you want someone who can communicate with you and not feel like you're a burden. Now I'm struggling to find someone else to do my wedding makeup that's in 3.5 months. It honestly sucks because I thought she was a sweet girl with good intentions but she's the opposite of what she portrays on social media. I was super hesitant on even posting this because I'm not the type to be so confrontational but I needed to warn anyone who wants to book with her, to not do it. Find someone else she says social media is her job which I get but not responding for over a week? Sorry but my sister who has a small business herself said she'd never make a client feel this type of way and she and a few others are super upset at how this situation was handled. You would think her clients would be a somewhat priority since her fan base is what got her to where she is now but she does not care. I was a fan of hers but not anymore after this situation. This whole thing caused me so much anxiety and stress so please do not book with her.

Phi Phi was my HMUA artist for my wedding last March. When Phi Phi and her team arrived to do…read moremake-up for me and my bridal team, they were efficient, quick, and fun. Since I had cut my hair into a pixie days before the wedding, she gave me a facial before putting on my make-up, and it was so relaxing! I think I fell asleep for a hot second. I've never had professional facial, and it was so nice to feel pampered before the most stressful moment of my life. Lol While getting my make-up done, she was conscientious that I don't like a lot of make-up, and that false lashes have historically been challenging for me to wear (I wear glasses so many falsies hit my glasses, and they irritate my eyes a lot). I wanted a soft, no-make-up look, but with a little wing eyeliner, and I showed her a photo of a bride she had done previously that looked really nice. That look, she told me, had used way more make-up than I liked, so she did her best to emulate that style on me, but in a toned-down approach. She was also so patient with me while we did a trial and error on a couple lash extensions to see which was most comfortable, and we eventually found one that gave my lashes fullness, yet felt weightless. To be honest, I totally forgot that I was wearing them until I had to take off my make-up. It actually made me a bit sad to take them off because they were the first falsies that were *so* comfortable. As for her HMUA team, I really appreciated that they asked each of my bridesmaids and my sister-in-law what kind of make-up and hair style they were going for. I didn't have any specific hair & make-up styles for anyone, so each of them chose their own style, and her team was flexible to accommodate each request! Overall, the experience was great! You won't regret choosing her and her team for your big day!

Over and over again, we choose Phi Phi for our special occasions.

Phi Phi brought so much beautiful and hot glitter for us!! Her smokey-eyes look was a killer! All the previous times, we did the sweet and natural look and Phi Phi just nailed the look. Now, first time trying the bold look and she rocked it too!! 2) Hair - She also went above and beyond to get our hair extensions coz my hair and the bride's hair were really short and she made them look so natural. My real hair was just below my ears and the bride's real hair was shoulder length. 3) Eyelashes - My mom was so thankful for Phi Phi's eye lashes falsies because they don't poke and they are so light. It was her first time putting on falsies. And Phi Phi's technique is so on point that it really pops your eyes. 4) Professionalism - Again, not only she's an incredibly talented artist, she also works with you to creat a beautiful face that you truly wants as beauty is very subjective. Love that she fully listens to you, understands you, and creates exactly what you have in mind!!!! Definitely choose Phi Phi again in a heart beat!
