***THEY DELETED MY REVIEW ON WEDDINGWIRE*** Beware - who…read moreknow show many other reviews they disputed.*** The photos of me looking angry is the hair and makeup they did for me. The ones where I actually look decent is the make I did MYSELF. The last photos are the photos of my without makeup. I don't normally take photos of myself without makeup so this was the best I could do. I had really high hopes for this vendor - which made me justify their high price. Right off the bat I was unsure - I had reached out to the owner Klaudia to confirm my payment. After reaching out to her 5 times, finally about one week later she finally confirmed, I was freaking out because I thought I was being scammed. My trial date kept changing, there wasn't any flexibility. The artist I had the trial with was a very nice lady - but clearly untrained and not a professional hair stylist/makeup artist. I never thought I could feel so ugly in my life than after she "revealed" her work. My hair was a joke, it looked so completely undone and not even close to what I asked her to do. She put, not exaggerating, at least 35 hair pins in my hair for a simple twist which looked nothing like what I asked for. she teased one side of the back of my hair which looked like a lump and gave me the wrong type of curls. The photos are after I tried to push it down a bit to show her that I don't like a tease like that. My face was so caked with the wrong color makeup and horribly blended. I have naturally thick eyebrows with a great structure, I'm known to have great eyebrows and to have natural beauty. The artist filled in very harshly just the beginning of my brows and then brushed up with gel. Her method made absolutely no sense. She contoured my face with an orange bronzer and in places i told her not to contour. She did not know how to wing eyeliner - I had to show her. By the end of it I looked like i was middle aged. I'm turning 28 in one month and can hardly pass for a 20 years old.. I don't have a single wrinkle and I have great skin, although I was having an eczema flare up from stress on my chin and one spot on my upper lip, she made it look very crusty and my skin was really irritated. I was truly dumbfounded. I was in shock. I immediately cancelled - they did not refund me for my trial. I was angry because the makeup artist took almost FIVE hours to do my hair and makeup and also wasted my time. I will say the owner broke the contract after explaining how disappointed I was. However, my wedding was in one and I had no makeup artist and no hairstylist. Make sure you have your trial WAYYYY before the wedding if you decide to go with this vendor. also ALWAYS TAKE PHOTOS YOURSELF after the trial. These are unfortunately the only photos I took because I was in shock and also in the middle of finding out one of my bridesmaids dropped out.

She followed all of the covid precautions for my elopement, and I couldn't have imagined feeling better for my big day. She is a kind, talented makeup artist and I am so thankful she was able to step in when our plans changed. Gwen is caring and funny, and makes you feel like you've been friends forever! She also did my mom and sister's makeup, and they looked beautiful as well. I would definitely hire Gwen for your big day before she is all booked up!

I LOVE the idea of her being a mobile service, catering to busy schedules and just coming to you. Amazing! She was immediately friendly walking through my door and greeted my very curious 4 1/2 year old daughter with such kindness. She felt like an old friend and was easy to talk to and is skilled at her craft. Very knowledgeable and my tan (I went with a medium color) turned out FANTASTIC! I'll definitely use her services again!

I'm so excited to write about Le Bella Salon. I don't know how there aren't more reviews on here…read moreabout them. They are excellent! First off, quant little Itasca where I went to school as a child and grew up. Love downtown Itasca. Surprised more businesses haven't squeezed their way into this area. I guess with Elk Grove/Arlington Heights near by, that might explain some things. Found this place through a friend and heard that I should try them so I did. I heard Danielle was THE gal to see for my waxing and hair cutting/dying needs. I'm not a person that dyes my hair, but one day when my little bit of gray takes over, I'm sure I may have to consider it. First off, you walk in this place and it's relaxing from the word go. Great atmosphere and wonderful staff to top it all off! They have a little boutique in the front with some cutesy little tops and jewelry. just darling! They offer manicures, pedicures, spa pedicures, NO Chip manicure (one of my faves), acrylics, make up, hair cuts for BOTH MEN AND WOMEN (and children), Up-do's, Coloring, highlites, perms, shine treatment and the new craze--- Brazilian Keratin Treatment. Pricing is comparable for this quality of service. Danielle offers a referral program (Danielle specifically) and offers her new clients a special deal on a cut and color...I may have missed all the details, but the word "Free" was involved. :) I had her wax my eyebrows. I don't really require much waxing but she did such a great job. Shaped them up beautifully and made me feel like I did something nice for myself. They offer a variety of waxing services, including the brazilian wax, lip, eyebrow, chin, back, chest (wish I could get my fiance to partake in a few of these), legs and underarms. Need a facial? The got 'em! I am thinking of perhaps partaking in one myself around the time of my upcoming wedding. Oh man, did i mention that they offer Swedish massages for only $60!?!? And word on the street is that the woman that does the massages here is SPECTACULAR!! I'm so excited to have found this place. It brings me back to my roots and memories of my childhood, but makes me feel like a beautiful woman and that's what we all want, right? Call and make your appointment now. Ask for Wendy or Danielle. Both ladies are experienced and well qualified, even to touch my hair and believe me, I barely let anyone lay a finger on it.

Ooh LeBella Salon! I am so excited to have found you!!! So my sister was trying them out after a…read morefriend of hers suggested that she go see Danielle, the Gentle Waxer. I decided to tag along to see what I thought and they were good enough to squeeze me in too. Guess what??? It's the same Danielle who used to cut my hair for years many moons ago! When I moved from Itasca to Schaumburg, I ended up choosing a salon right around the corner from my then new house. I can't believe that I've found her again. She's been in this profession for fourteen year now...wow, how time flies! And now I feel a little older than I would like. But I digress. Anyhow, I decided to eliminate the Oscar the Grouch/Tom Selleck look that I've been sporting for a few weeks and opted for an eyebrow and lip waxing. The waxing room is nice. Very clean. They don't double dip in the wax which is greatly appreciated. It would be almost as bad as double dipping in the chip dip at a party which is why I'm glad that they stay away from that practice. ;-) Anyhow, I agree with the nickname. Oh, Gentle Waxer, you left me painfree and very relaxed! I was surprised because my face usually hurts for a while after a waxing, but not this time. The salon itself is divided up nicely. They have a couple manicure stations setup in front by the windows, so there is good lighting. The other windowfront is the home of their boutique. Filled with jewelry, handbags, hats, scarves and really cute tops - there's a lot to look at in that space! I need to devote more time right there on my next visit. The pedicure station is near the back of the salon for a more relaxed feel away from the guests coming in and out the front door. The stylists are setup throughout the Center along the walls. Overall the prices are what I would expect and I'm good with that. Everyone that I encountered was friendly. I like that a lot. I like feeling welcomed. Like they're glad to have me. :-) I'm looking forward to my next visit. I love downtown Itasca and all it has to offer. This is a great locally owned salon that's worth your time and money!

Spray Tans: Rita takes the time to discuss your tan with you, make sure your tan is even and dry and makes sure you're happy with your service. I've had multiple spray tans from her and always receive a ton of compliments. They never look fake, orange or streaky. Facials: She's a total pro and knowledgeable about skin which makes you as the client feel comfortable. She makes the proper recommendations and keeps you updated during the facial so you're aware of what's going on. My facial was relaxing and my skin looked great. Makeup: She did the makeup for my cousins wedding (bride and bridal party). Everyone looked gorgeous and the makeup lasted all day. She took the time to blend and accentuate everyone's features while hiding blemishes and imperfections. Total pro! Waxing: Great brow waxing with perfect shape. You won't be disappointed. And if there is an issue all you have to do is tell her, she will fix it. It's obvious her clients are her first priority. She wants you to leave feeling your best which is so hard to find.

My second visit 7 or 8 weeks later with the same stylist didn't look as good. The contrast between blond and brown barely noticable. My third visit with the same stylist was way too dark brown.

Also, at a new place today they reported that my hair was severly damaged from over bleaching during foils. For basic services this place is fine. But they do not have an understanding of how to protect hair from further damage by over processing.

You work with their group directly who then contract out hair and makeup stylists for your trail and day of services. If you are someone who likes direct contact with a stylists this may not be the route for you. HOWEVER! They offer very low minimum spend (5 services) and no charges for travel as long as your getting ready location is in the suburbs. This was perfect as I had a small bridal party and minimal family members interested in getting hair or makeup done. Also, their prices were very competitive. I worked with Sam for makeup! Sam did a great job asking the right questions, applying the right looks for people who usually wear minimal makeup, and checking in to ensure what she was doing was liked. Everyone felt very much like themself and makeup lasted all night. For hair, I worked with Alex! Between my trail and wedding morning, it took Alex and I some time to get to my final wedding look. She was patient with me but had some difficulties interpreting my vision. I can 100% say that it was all worth it in the end because i LOVED my hair. I felt like myself and it held all night. My other girls also enjoyed their hair and really felt heard by Alex. Lastly, I recommend to Style on Site to shoot for consistency with their clients. Having discussions with my friend, the offerings and accommodations were very different between our two experiences.
