I've meant to write this for months, as Virginia has become our go-to makeup artist after having done makeup for me and for my wife several times always with wonderful results. She was recommended to us by our hairdresser (Catalina Huerta at Cutlab) to do the makeup for our wedding; she did a great job, and we were really pleased. Since then Virginia has done our makeup AND hair for photo shoots, gala events, and for my wife's performances with VOX Femina and we couldn't have been happier every time. In addition to being talented and creative, Virginia is super-organized and professional, and also a joy to be around. read more

I found Virginia Valverde on Yelp, and based on her reviews, I reached out to her and I am so happy that I did. My daughter's Sweet 16 was this past weekend and she looked dazzling! We had a hair stylist from Virginia's team assigned to us, but was held up and running late. Virginia stepped it up and came to the rescue. She was professional, organized, calm, and fast! My daughter loved her! She reassured us that my daughter's hair will be done and ready in a timely manner and she delivered. We loved it!!! Thank you Virginia for your professionalism! I now have a hair and makeup professional that I can call on for my future events. My younger daughter will have her Sweet 16 next year and now I know of someone who I trust and will be calling on. You'll be hearing from me soon!!Thank you again!! read more

Virginia was extremely professional and thoughtful from our first interactions via email. She did a hair and makeup trial at my apartment and was on time, prepared and organized. She was super friendly, approachable and sweet. I had SUCH a great experience. On top of her great personality and professionalism, her work blew me away. My hair was perfect in every way - half up / half down with a braid wrapping around and hair extensions to add length and volume to my hair. I got airbrush makeup and it felt so light and still provided all the coverage I needed without the dreaded cake face. I 100% recommend Virginia. She really listens to what you want and delivers beyond your expectations at an amazing price! read more

I was hopping around, dancing like crazy and my veil was pulled from my hair and nothing fell!! i was having so much fun, i didn't notice until my guest told me! So a big big big thank you Virginia! I loved my hair, my guest loved, and my husband loved my hair!! If i had to repeat my day again, i would 100% book her again!! read more

My girlfriend and I celebrated our three year anniversary yesterday. We were looking at various make up artists and came across Virginia. We saw her work and were impressed. My girlfriend doesn't feel comfortable paying via venmo or other online means and Virginia was accommodating and allowed her to pay cash personally. Virginia made my girlfriend feel comfortable and included me in the make up process by allowing me to make suggestions. We are very happy with her work, she did an amazing job. We will definitely be seeing her again in the near future!!! Thank you so much VIRGINIA! read more

Virginia put my eyelashes on with such ease and confidence. She did a wonderful job. I reccomend her to everyone

Virginia is numero UNO!! Im really glad I stumble upon her on yelp. I really needed someone who is professional to do my hair for my best friend's wedding. I was skeptical at first, but because Virgina is so professional I decide to try it! And I really love the result. My curls hold from 7am till the next day. I was surprise cause my hair doesn't usually hold curls. On top of that, I just show her a pic the day of and Virgina did exactly what I wanted! read more

Virginia made me feel very comfortable both times and was open to my requests. She worked with me to help me look my most glamorous. I highly recommend her services! read more

Virginia did a great job. She is fun to work with and easy to talk to. I feel like she really got the look I was going for. She seems to really enjoy her job. She was willing to drive to Simi Valley to meet with me. I had a really hard time finding a Simi Valley makeup artist and I feel so lucky that I was able to find her just before my wedding. I also appreciate that she was able to meet with me at an early time (5:30 am) and that she was on time. This took a lot of stress off my wedding day. read more

I found Virginia after a friend referred her to me after a horrible makeup trial with another artist. I am from out of town, so I had to stay a few extra days to find a new artist. I contacted 5 makeup artists and she was extremely quick to respond to my email. I had such a bad taste in my mouth with my previous experience, but I trust my friend who referred her and Virginia did not disappoint. I love that she comes to you, which is really convenient when you are from out of town with no car. We were scheduled for a two and a half hour appointment, but she ended up staying for four hours. She really listened to my needs and concerns and she addressed each of them. She made me feel completely at ease and confident knowing that she knew my "must haves". Her makeup application skills are top notch and so are the products and tools she uses. She uses all prestige quality products and I was pleased to see how sanitary she keeps everything. She custom made the lip color she used on me, which I loved because I always have a hard time finding the perfect shade for my skin tone. I was impressed with her work when I looked in the mirror. She gave me just what I wanted with my makeup and most importantly, it photographed beautifully. I even wore it the rest of the day to see how it would wear on the day of my wedding. It stayed put and never broke up. I had a bunch of ideas for my hair, too. We started off with one style, changed it up a bit to incorporate more detail. She ended up creating three updo's on me. She's great at managing your expectations when it comes to your hair and makeup. If you show her a picture, she'll tell you "Yes that's doable and it'll look good on you" or "No, that won't work on you because..." This was just our trial, but I am so excited to see her again and watch her work her magic on me and my wedding party. Virginia's passion for what she does is infectious and she is such a joy to work with. I would recommend her to anyone in the LA/OC/SD area looking for a hair and makeup artist for your special day. read more

I am very grateful to Virginia who put up with me on the day of my wedding, despite not going through a trial run, for making my matron of honor beautiful (she was psyched!) and for making the dark circles under my eyes disappear. The only reason I went with four stars was because I did wind up doing my hair and fixing it myself in the end, but I don't necessarily hold that against Virginia because we were already running late and I knew what I wanted and I just had to get it done! That said, I was also still working on wedding details while she was doing my hair and makeup which really wasn't fair to her, and was my big mistake in not hiring a wedding coordinator! I would highly recommend Virginia, she is very patient and works hard to give you the look you are aiming for! Thank you, Virginia!!! read more

I was looking for make-up artists for my wedding day, and one of Virginia's colleagues recommended her to me. Virginia was extremely quick in replying to all my emails. She did both my hair and make-up a few weeks before the wedding. She really takes the time to ask questions to find out what you really like. She's also very good at guiding people like me who don't know much about hair and make-up. She did such a great job. Everyone loved my braided up-do and my natural-looking make-up. Do not hesitate to hire her! read more

Virginia was soo easy to work with, she nailed my vision and I couldn't of been happier with her services!

Virginia did my hair and makeup for my maternity shoot! She was excellent! She was on time and very professional! Very easy to talk to and have a conversation with! I will use her every time I have a photo shoot! She's the best! read more

Virginia is AMAZING. she's every bit as competent in makeup as she is hair (a 10 in both - which I've NEVER been able to find in a hair and makeup artist). She has a wonderful personality where you feel she is listening to your requests while also incredibly confident so it's great to just let her take the lead. I will be using Virginia for as many events as I can from here on out. read more

Virginia was great and very accommodating upon our first meeting. She was professional and friendly throughout the entire process. She took the time to explain what she was doing and was open to suggestions. My makeup on my wedding day was amazing!! My hair was ok- not sure why it held no curl when at my trial we determined my hair could definitely hold curls. Not a major deal, but I must admit my hair fell flat after a couple of hours and it shows in the pictures. Overall I would definitely recommend Virginia. read more

We had a wonderful experience with Virginia. All three bridesmaids looked so beautiful. Virginia was accommodating, quick, creative and professional. Worth every penny and will definitely book Virginia again. This lady gives great hair! read more

Again , it all looked great ! Ponytail stayed up for her recital all day read more

Because I started searching for hair and makeup artists soon before my wedding, I was worried that I wouldn't find anyone. Luckily, I was able to find a hair and makeup stylists that were available! Virginia did a wonderful job on my makeup, as well as my mom's and the Brideswomen that were interested. As Virginia told me during my trial run before the wedding, she wanted to take whatever I (and the Brideswomen) wear each day, and make it stand out just a little bit more. She was very patient and also gave really good advice. I felt so bad that I forgot my appointment time when I had the my trial run with her, but she helped make me feel not too bad because she put me at ease and I knew I would be in good hands. The morning of the wedding, Virginia, in coordination with the hairdresser, did my, my mom's, and some of the Brideswomen's makeup. Virginia put on a much or as little of makeup as each person wanted. Her knowledge and expertise helped me, my mom, and sister (we wear minimal makeup) feel comfortable, even with the fake eyelashes that the three of us agreed to try that day!! My mom is a beautiful person anyway, but her reaction to how she looked with the makeup on and her gratitude to Virginia mirrored how I felt. Virginia is a fun and friendly to talk to, and it made sitting in the makeup chair not feel like a chore. I felt immensely beautiful because I looked like the way I would look on a normal basis, but a little more dolled up. And, perhaps most important for a wedding, the makeup looked really good in the photographs, and lasted throughout the day and night. Thanks so much Virginia! read more
