    I'll admit it, I'm a prissy girly-girl! I love to get dolled up and have my make-up professionally…read moredone! What can I say, I love how it enhances my already present beauty. Yup, I'm tooting my own horn, but if I don't, who will?! Plus, I think every woman should strut their stuff and feel gorgeous, whether it's for a special occasion or just a girl's night out on the town! This review is way overdue because I had my make-up done by the "Melanin Matcher" herself, Ms. Heather, and she did a fabulous job - no, phenomenal job! Why the name "Melanin Matcher?" Glad you asked! Chile, she can literally match ANY skin color/type (and I do mean ANY) to the correct foundation that complements your skin! Guaranteed...No Lie! For the ladies that have tried to get their foundation matched up to their skin tone, you know how difficult that can be. Heather has mastered the science of figuring this out for us! Yesssss!!! Since I follow The Image Concierge on Instagram, I knew she was the perfect person to do my make-up for an upcoming event. I booked my appointment online and any questions I had, I was able to have them answered via email. You have the option of going to Heather's in-home studio or her/staff member coming to your home (for an additional price). I opted for Heather to come to my home. A down payment was required and I was set. She arrived promptly on time and we hit it off instantly. Heather has a very warm and welcoming spirit and her vision for my make-up was spot on with my cocktail attire. As stated before, she did a PHENOMENAL job! We talked about a variety of skincare products, make-up options I could do on my own, and brands that aren't often sought after but are really good. A few months later she had a special make-up presentation at her home and she invited me to attend...just a classy and business savvy lady. I can tell she appreciates her clients and I definitely appreciate her! She's doing big things in the make-up game and I'm glad she was able to assist me on my look that evening. I received many compliments. Thanks again Heather, you made me shine that night. SN: I need to make another appointment, even if I don't have an actual event to attend. I'll just be cute while I'm scrubbing the tub or mopping my kitchen floor. Ha!

    The Image Concierge, also know as, "the melanin matcher" does amazing work. She is professional and…read morecan accomplish any look. It was a pleasure to work with her on my make-up for my professional headshots. She earned the title "melanin matcher" because she can perfectly match your foundation. She helped me find my perfect summer and winter foundation match. I still use the foundation she matched for me. I would recommend her to everyone and for all make-up needs. She also does personal beauty product shopping trips, gives great tips on her IG, and is just an amazing person.

    I can't say enough good things about Addi! I found her online and was blown away by her portfolio…read moreand great reviews, and immediately knew I wanted her to do my makeup for my engagement pictures. Some highlights: 1) I emailed her on Tuesday and my pics were on Sunday. Not only did she give me an appointment on such short notice, she is also 39 weeks pregnant! I couldn't believe she was willing to do my makeup the weekend before her baby is due. She is so passionate about her job and truly cares about her clients, even if she's never met you before. 2) I never wear makeup so I was pretty nervous about how it would turn out. Addi took time to listen to what I was looking for and we talked about some of my previous (bad) experiences with makeup so that she also knew what I didn't want. Throughout the session, she continuously asked me how I felt and always made sure I was comfortable with the way it looked. Addi is the perfect makeup artist for women who don't usually get their makeup done or are a bit nervous about wearing full makeup. 3) Her studio is adorable, really clean and organized, and all her products are top of the line. 4) She is so sweet and really easy to talk to. My makeup, including eye lashes, took a little over an hour but the time flew by because we were chatting away. She even offered to run into her house and get me an umbrella since it was pouring out. Addi is truly an incredible makeup artist, and I left feeling comfortable in my own skin. People kept telling me how great of a job Addi did enhancing my natural beauty, which is exactly what I was looking for. I got a sneak peak of my engagement pictures and my makeup looks amazing. I can't wait to book Addi for future events, and I have my fingers crossed she'll be available to do my makeup on my wedding day. :)

    I was recommended Addi by a hair stylist for my wedding. I did a phone consult with her. She was…read moreincredibly rude and dismissive, -- particularly of my need for her to work with particular products that would not flare my skin sensitivities -- that is, until she saw a photo of me and realized I was pretty. When it seemed like there could be a way forward, I asked to see a copy of her contract, and she got upset with me for asking. She then told me she would refuse to work with anything "subpar" (her word) and would not work with me. Lowest moment of planning my wedding. (For the record, she was well within my budget so this was not about the cost, and I found a much better makeup artist to work with me instead.)

    Grit Studio and owner Kris Clark are incredible! Every service is provided with full consultation…read more and the client's vision in mind! I have been a client of the Salon for four years and continue to be completely satisfied and amazed of the results! Kris continues to study to perfect her craft! Having mature hair, I decided to get extensions. The color, technique, style are perfection! There's a reason she is the small business woman of the year, and the best salon in Old Town Alexandria! Looking for an incredible Salon, stylist/colorist and products and makeup that are simply healthy for you and your hair? Grit Studio is for you!!

    When you find a hair and makeup artist you love, you've hit the jackpot. Kris, owner of Grit Studio…read morein Alexandria, is a stylist I can count on any time I book. I've seen Kris for about the past year for blowouts and makeup applications for a variety of events, photo shoots and theater performances. Kris listens carefully to the service you want. Whenever I've shown reference photos, she re-creates them flawlessly. With makeup, I love the lash application she includes and the long-staying wear of the makeup products she applies. She's also extremely efficient, and after the first visit, she perfected my look and made each subsequent appointment easy, quick and simple. I recently visited for a headshot package she offered, where a professional photographer took new photos in her studio after I received hair and makeup treatment. I really appreciated Kris during the shoot, as she offered tips for posing and even touched up my hair and clothing to help me get the perfect shots. Her vast experience as an editorial stylist and big event artist (weddings, glam, etc.) has really provided her with an expert eye that made the photo shoot even more successful. If you're looking for hair and makeup you can trust to look great, I'd highly recommend Kris in Alexandria.
