Tham did my hair a few months ago- and when I say she did my hair, I mean she color corrected it, gave my hair dimension, cut and styled it and all together gave my hair the life it deserved after my years of abuse. Last week when I was due for a touch-up, I decided to give her a small heart attack and ask her if it was possible for me to go lighter. Tham worked her magic in ONE SESSION. I drove home and almost died a few times because I could not stop looking at the mirror at how amazing my hair looked! I LOVE LOVE LOVVVVVVEEEE my hair so much! It did take a few (like almost 8) hours but time flew because Tham was so easy and fun to talk to. I felt the same vibe when I got make hair done by Christine for my brother's wedding. This team is super sweet, caring, talented, and they make sure you are happy leaving their chair while making sure the health of your hair isn't compromised. Congrats Christine and Team Bridal Beauty for opening a new location!

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.

Hands down one of the nicest women I've ever met! I was looking for a makeup artist for my wedding…read moreand unfortunately, my venue didn't have many preferred vendors to suggest so I took to Yelp. Thank GOD I found Kimberly! I first met her for my trial run, which was very reasonable price wise - although I was prepared to drive to her, she came all the way to my apartment (I'm roughly 45 minutes away from her, on the Peninsula) with her full makeup kit. During the trial, she was very easy to talk to and made me comfortable. We only had to do one run through because she so closely created the image I had in my head that I didn't want anything else! On the spot, I asked her to send me a contract and how much I needed to pay for the deposit. The whole time, between our first contact and the day of, she was incredibly responsive and helpful to my questions and requests, which is something that helps the bride immensely. It was really comforting to know that with everything going on, I didn't have to worry about this aspect of it. The day of, she was very timely (she even apologized because she arrived to our hotel MAYBE 3 minutes after she said she would, which I hadn't even realized at all!) and had set up a good schedule so that she could get my bridesmaid's and my makeup done by the time we needed to leave for the venue. The whole time, she was very engaging with all of us and, again, made me feel very comfortable (as we all know, it can be pretty awkward with a stranger so up close to your face). The finished product of both myself and my bridesmaids? I really couldn't have asked for a better look for us all. It was very neutral/natural, which was what I was going for - it wasn't cakey or over the top, but there was enough to know we did have makeup on. And what was great is she catered to everyone's features and needs so while we all looked uniform and matching, each girls' good features were accentuated as needed. Overall, I would give Kimberly more than 5 stars if I could! She's very affordable, especially considering that she will come to your venue to eliminate the stress of traveling. Once I have our professional pictures, I will upload those to show an example of her work :)

This review is long overdue, but it's been on my mind of things to do. I hardly EVER write…read morereviews, but I LOVED Kimberly from Spoiled Gal Beauty so much and her talent is too great to not let others know. I was married last year and met Kimberly at a wedding fair. Immediately after meeting her and reviewing her portfolio of pictures at her booth I instantly knew she was the gal for the job. I thought it was going to take me FOREVER to find someone up to my standards to do my make-up and hair, luckily it was not the case. Hands down she was my favorite vendor. She is reasonably priced for the level of service you get. It's all about feeling beautiful on your special day, which she made me feel. She is so professional...always on time, very responsive to calls/emails. She gave me feedback for things I didn't really know about. I truly felt like we were girlfriends and she was doing my hair and make-up because she was so incredibly sweet and personable. Kimberly met me at my sister's house for the trial run. On the big day she went to my sister's house first and then to the venue- so very flexible to accommodate your needs. I can't say enough about Kimberly/Spoiled Gal Beauty. She is my go to gal for any big events from here on out!
