    Ellie is professional, creative, efficient, and fun. I have really curly hair and when I first reached out to Ellie, she immediately asked me pertinent questions about my hair, asked for photographs and recommended some conditioning products to use in preparation for the big day. She looked at all of the hair styles that I had snagged from Pinterest and gave me recommendations on what would look good for the big day. She was basically a gal pal who has an insane talent for hair and make up -- win & win! We had so much fun the day of our trial and she did such an incredible job that I knew we had to book her right away. Ellie is just a master when it comes to all hair styles but she is the one and only stylist I liked who could make my curly hair look amazing in its natural state. She created a schedule for our big day that allowed us to wake up at a reasonable time the day of but also got all of the services done in time for our photographer's arrival. She gave a list of tips/pointers for me to share with my bridesmaids before the day of, including recommendations on skin care/hair care prior to the big day. Ellie answered every text I had promptly and reached out the evening before to confirm her team's arrival. When the day came, not only was Ellie's team on-time but they all wore masks the whole time and made sure that we felt comfortable. The whole beauty team had such calm demeanors and made each of us feel so special, pampered and relaxed (which I heard is pretty rare the morning of a wedding!). Ellie especially took care with my mother and made sure that she absolutely loved her hair and make up and felt confident and beautiful. The whole team did a fabulous job with our hair and make up. My fiancé especially said she did an amazing job highlighting our natural beauty while also making us look glam. Seriously, we all felt so confident and glamorous and all got so many compliments on how we looked throughout the night. To top it off, we all danced the night away and our hair and make up STAYED amazing. We have photos from cake cutting at the end of the night and I looked just as good then as I had many hours earlier in the ceremony. Hours of dancing and my hair was still flawless and my make up looked incredible. It made the night so fun to not worry about make up running or hair falling down. Couldn't have imagined our special day starting in any other way and couldn't have imagined a better team than Ellie and her girls to make us look so beautiful. They made us look and feel confident and gave us beauty that lasted the whole evening. I would highly recommend Ellie and her team for your big day if you want to have fun, look amazing, and photograph well!

    I used Ellie back in June of 2010 for my wedding hair and make-up. She did such a great job! Communicating via e-mail, she was always very prompt to reply to my questions. We did a trial run at her salon a few days before the big day to pinpoint the exact look I was going for. Hubby's jaw dropped when I walked out of the shop (destination wedding so I had to tow him around most places with me!), and when we went next door for some lunch, the waiter asked if I had come from a beauty pageant, lol. She took a few photos from different angles to use as reference for the big day, and was nice enough to e-mail them to me so I could keep them :) On the big day Ellie showed up on time to do my hair/makeup as well as my mom's. She was a joy to talk to and very upbeat during our session. She got us done with plenty of time before my bridesmaids showed up to do pictures. My makeup lasted all night and she gave me a little extra of the lip gloss she used so I could reapply it as it wore off from the eating/drinking. All in all a wonderful experience from start to finish. I wish I could comment more on her other services, but alas since I don't live in the area I haven't been able to try more. Highly recommended!

    This is a review for Ellie & Stacey, who I hired to do hair & makeup for my bridal party and myself on my wedding day. They both did an AMAZING job and I was so, so happy with how everything turned out. Ellie is an absolute magician: first of all, I didn't have a clear vision of what I wanted and showed her a bunch of opposing pictures, but she somehow figured what I wanted. Then, she transformed my usually straight, lifeless hair into beautifully curled, voluminous, and braided that lasted the WHOLE wedding day! I also don't usually wear make up and don't like to wear too much, so Ellie did a great job of making it look natural without overdoing it. I can't say enough good things and I absolutely would hire them again!!

    I walked in with hair like straw and Stacey spun it into gold! I got low lights, cut and a style. Stacey was very knowledgeable and nice to talk to. The price was quite reasonable, a bargain actually for the transformation she created for me. Thank you so much!

    Ellie's masterpiece!! My wedding hair
    Erin N.

    Ellie did an amazing job on my hair and makeup for my wedding day!! She made it look effortless... which is hard because the amount of hair I have usually takes hours to curl, only to fall straight in minutes. But Ellie worked her magic and my hair stayed PERFECT all day! I've never felt more beautiful. Love you Ellie!!

    I was totally blown away by Ellie's work on my hair. I had her do an updo for my wedding. She is incredible. I sent her a picture before I had my hair done of what I was looking for. She gave me some ideas of hair pieces to get to fill in my hair. I got there and she worked her magic. I will recommend her to anyone I know because she did such an amazing job and also in a very timely manner. Thanks for making my big day so special!

    Can anyone let me know what their pricing is for just a female haircut? Nothing fancy, just normal trim/upkeep.

    I paid $45. They wash and massage, cut, and style. You leave feeling fabulous.

    I seriously can't thank Kyla enough for how beautiful she made me look and feel on my wedding day…read more She is insanely talented, but also just brings the best, most calming energy. She had me laughing all morning, even when I was so nervous I felt like I might throw up. When she showed me the final look, I was honestly blown away. It was everything I wanted and more- I felt so confident, polished, and still completely like myself. And somehow, my makeup remained flawless all night, even after jumping in the pool at the end of the wedding! If you want to look amazing and feel taken care of on your wedding day, Kyla is 100% the person to book. She delivers both incredible results and such a fun, positive experience. I truly couldn't have imagined my day without her!!!

    Words cannot explain how happy and beautiful I felt on my big day. Much can be attributed to Kyla…read morewho glammed me up to perfection! I don't think I have ever felt as beautiful as I did this day. She did an amazing job capturing the look I wanted and complimented my natural features so well. As a hooded eye girlie she made the eye look work for me and I was beyond impressed. She also brings such a great energy which as a bride is sooooo important. When I tell you she had my back when I was getting borderline harassed by questions from folks she was in my corner telling others to handle and even answered questions on my behalf.. AMAZING. Customer service top tier here! Definitely will be my go to for any professional makeup service. I can go on and on with how great of service she provides and the lovely human she is. Look no further this is your girl.

I had heard about her through mutual friends and community. I'm really glad that I got to work with her for my wedding. She is dedicated to her craft and really talented. I am always nervous about working with others who may not be as well versed in my Asian facial structure and hair, but I did not have to worry at all with JP Charming! I did book a trial with Chi Hang so that I could get a feel of what I liked and would want on my special day. I was able to match this up with my engagement photoshoot. Chi Hang talked me through the whole process of my hair and make up. She also asked me a lot of questions to see what I liked and what I wanted to aim for. This was helpful as she was building my profile for my wedding day. I was torn between a half-up, half-down and a low bun. Turns out, I can have both! On the wedding day, the base would be half-up, half-down and then turned into a low bun. The low bun would be for the ceremony and then turn into a half-up, half-down for the reception by taking out some bobby pins! On the wedding day, Chi Hang and her team were right on time and ready to go at 6:00 AM! I absolutely loved the two gals she brought with her: Pari and Lucy. My sister is usually so quiet, shy, and not super into doing hair and makeup. But I could hear her laughing and chit chatting away. I know my girls felt at ease working with Chi Hang, Pari, and Lucy. They really take into consideration what their clients want and make it happen! My mom was very impressed and whew, it can be hard to impress her. The whole process was very well organized and timely. She had sent me a spreadsheet of the breakdowns of who does what and what at time. We were on schedule, which was a relief to me because I have been a part of a wedding party where one of the bridesmaids was missing from the tea ceremony due to the makeup artist miscalculating timing. My wedding was the end of August so it was still very hot out! However, my hair and makeup stayed great throughout the whole day. She gave me a little kit to help touch up any pieces. It was such a sweet touch. I'm so grateful that I went with JP Charming for my wedding! She is so kind and really wants to know what you like. It makes it easier for people like me who sometimes have a hard time speaking my thoughts. Thank you for everything, Chi Hang! If you're looking for a A+++ team, look no further than JP Charming!
