    Sarah and her team did a fantastic job! Her natural glam style was perfect for my wedding! I cried (happy tears), sweated on the dancefloor, and it was windy all during my wedding, but my hair and makeup stayed completely intact for 8 hours. I looked fantastic in all my photos. I also have very thin hair and dry and sensitive skin, but Sarah made my hair look thicker and beautiful, and her make up is high quality so my skin didn't break out! She's very pleasant to work with and Michelle and Nancy on her team were also fantastic. Sarah and her team were also very timely and professional!

    Makeup stayed fresh after 9+ hours of partying

    I cannot say enough about how amazing and professional she is. I chose her for my wedding because she seemed to focus more on natural looks and I am very happy I did. She was on time, accommodating to my party and additional requests and set a fun time. She made me feel so beautiful and the wedding pictures came out amazing. My mom even said she has never felt beautiful in pictures before, but did that day and wishes she could replicate the makeup. Def go with Ankerman Artistry if you're considering her!

    I originally booked my hair with someone else for my wedding but they happen to cancel on me 2 weeks before the big day. Luckily we found Sarah and took us in last minute. We had an amazing experience with her! She did a wonderful job on my hair and it stayed up all day long. She made all 5 of us look amazing and would definitely book her and her team again for any future events. If you're looking for someone who will make you feel comfortable and confident, then I definitely recommended trusting Sarah and her team! Thank you for everything, you're the best.

    I cannot say enough amazing things about Sarah! She made both all of my bridesmaids and myself feel so comfortable and we all loved our wedding makeup. I specifically wanted a very natural, effortless look and she couldn't have done a better job. So very thankful to have had her on our big day. Highly, highly recommend!

    Wedding hair after a massive wind storm..it held and still looked great!

    I got my hair done as a bridesmaid and I loved my hair!! Definitely the best style I've ever had. I got compliments all night!! You will not be disappointed!!! All the other bridesmaids hair looked just as stunning. She did so well with all types of hair.... Thick, thin, short, long.... We literally had it all and Sara blew us all away. 10/10 recommend! I will be dreaming about this updo for forever... wish I could have it everyday!

    Hair & makeup for all!

    I booked Sarah for hair and make up for myself and 10 others for my wedding day. I'm not someone who normally wears a lot of makeup or really puts much effort into my hair on a daily basis, so I was really particular finding a stylist who would not make me look over done or unlike myself. And a lot of my bridesmaids were the same way. Specifically for this, Sarah was a true pro - she made us all feel confident in her ability to hit that delicate balance and she knocked it out of the park. Since we had such a large group, she brought in 3 other stylists, and they were all incredible as well. Everyone was friendly, professional and punctual. They know what they're doing, and whether you know exactly how you want to look, or you want to give a little guidance but leave it to their expertise, Sarah and her team will nail the look. Throughout the whole process, Sarah was responsive and consultative! Couldn't have asked for a more perfect result and experience. Thank you, Sarah & team!

    Prepping out talent in the green room!

    HIGHLY Recommend Sarah with Ankerman Artistry. We loved using her for several recent productions to help get out talent camera ready. Love her personality and how she interacts with the talent and crew. Will keep calling on Sarah to join us on our productions!!!

    Very overdue review! Sarah did my hair for my wedding in October, as well as my Mom, MIL, SIL, and a few of my bridesmaid. She was friendly, professional, fun, and easy to work with. She got my vision for my hair and it was so, so beautiful. It stayed all night and I never felt like it was in danger of falling out. Everyone loved their hair and in particular she did such a good job with my Mom. Thank you Sarah! I even talked to her about my idea for a post-wedding haircut and she gave me some suggestions on how to ask for the new shorter style - and she was right, I love my new shorter hair!

    I did not know Sarah when I booked her - this was all done on a leap of faith and I am SO GLAD I did because she is amazing! She is a sweetheart and was so easy to work with and fulfilled all of my demands! I was very particular on my hair and makeup and she 100% hit bullseyes. My makeup and hair lasted me all day without the need for retouch at all. I wanted my makeup to look natural yet perfect and that was what I got. She was also on time and super professional. She cleaned up after herself nicely and did not leave the place a mess. I 100% will book her again for any future events that I need hair and makeup done.

    I messaged Sarah with less than 24 hours until I was supposed to get married to do my makeup because my original makeup artist was worried about leaving her house. I was so happy with the work she did and felt so beautiful on my mini wedding day! Would definitely recommend

    Sarah, KC and Hollie are the must have artists on your big day! Sarah is amazing. She is very professional and responsive on every inquiries I made. She takes good care of her clients and made sure she have all the details on how I envision myself and the girls for my big day. These ladies made me, my husband and my bridal party feel and look beautiful for my big day. Will definitely recommend this ladies to everyone.

    Sarah did my hair and I felt so beautiful!

    It was fate that had us meet each other! I was scrambling to replace my hair gal and I met Sarah! She came to my house and in an hour, I was transformed! She was professional and friendly! On a day that could've been so nerve-racking, I felt nothing but peace! My hair lasted all night long! It was more than eight hours of beautiful hair and I was actually able to get another full day out of the hairstyle! I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she executed it beautifully!

    Christy C.

    Sarah is incredible! I contacted her about doing makeup and/or hair for myself and my bridal party, and I was so thrilled when she agreed to help me. She came highly recommended by our venue, and she lived up to every nice thing they had to say about her and more. During our first conversation, she not only answered all of my questions and put me at ease, but she also provided me with so many helpful tips about what to expect on the big day, and how to plan for it! She consistently responded to my emails, and even went out of her way to touch base when I wasn't as communicative as I should have been. Amidst all the planning and missed connections with vendors, this was a welcome relief! Sarah made things SO easy! When the big day rolled around, Sarah was super punctual, and had already guided me through what she would need from me. She brought help (KC was awesome!) and my big handful of a wedding party had so much fun with her! Sarah's relaxed, friendly, and ridiculously talented, so how could they not?! She made us all look naturally gorgeous in no time at all - seriously, we were at least a half hour ahead of schedule! - and our makeup and hair stayed flawless all night. We got so many compliments on how natural our makeup looked and on the gorgeous braid and all the body she gave my hair, but the best part of all of it was hanging out with Sarah!

    I can't say enough good things about Charlene and Launa!…read more I was attending a wedding at a Temecula winery and wanted to be done up for the occasion. Charlene handled my hair and Launa did my makeup, and together they nailed it. Charlene guided me on adding curl but not too much volume. I was very happy with the result. Launa's makeup was equally awesome. She made me feel put together without my makeup being heavy or overdone. It held up beautifully through a long evening and I received a lot of compliments. Both ladies were professional, warm, attentive, and invested in making sure I loved the final result. They listened to what I wanted and delivered just that. I left feeling confident, beautiful, and ready for a gorgeous wedding. I would absolutely book Charlene and Launa again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for hair and makeup artists who are talented, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Thank you both for helping make the weekend so special!

Jessica did an amazing job on her hair and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. She was friendly, fun to talk to, and made conversation feel easy and natural, which helped create such a relaxed atmosphere. She really listened to what was wanted and paid attention to every detail. The braided style blended perfectly into the curls and ponytail, and the final look was beautiful, elegant, and photographed so well. She left there with a big smile and said she felt so pretty! Her makeup turned out gorgeous, unfortunately I do not remember the lady's name, but she was terrific. My son's gf had picked out a look she wanted, the makeup artist did mention that the look would be dark and they could start light and go darker if needed. She was absolutely amazing with makeup and truly a wizard with the brushes. Her blending skills were incredible, and she really knew how to enhance features without making the makeup feel heavy or overdone. The final look was soft and natural, while still giving that glamorous polished finish perfect for a special event. She created such a beautiful balance between elegant and effortless. Everything stayed comfortable and secure throughout the event. The makeup lasted and did not smudge or smear off. I would absolutely recommend Jessica and the makeup artist to anyone looking for hair styling services and makeup for an event. We would definitely come back to here again!

I've been dealing with thinning hair from stress and early pre-menopause, and it's really taken a toll on my hair and confidence. I was curious but also a little nervous going in... and then I felt nothing. Zero pain. It literally felt like a gentle scalp massage with light vibration--so relaxing that it felt more like self-care than a treatment. The process was fast, easy, and I went right on with my day like nothing happened. No downtime at all. This is new hair technology, completely non-invasive, and such an easy yes compared to anything surgical or scary. Rosey recommends a series of 3 treatments, with an annual maintenance treatment for optimal results, which feels totally doable--especially since it's painless. I loved it so much that my husband had the treatment done too. I'm really excited to see my results and can't wait to come back and update this review once my hair starts growing in. If this works the way the research says it does, I honestly don't know why anyone would ever choose hair transplants again.

My trial went flawlessly, and Leah made me feel so unbelievably comfortable right from the start (she is also a perfectionist - which is something you will appreciate on your wedding day). I can honestly say that her and her co-worker, Brittany, were one of the biggest reasons my wedding day was as special as it was. Not only did they make us LOOK beautiful, but they made us FEEL beautiful. My advice for brides-to-be is DO NOT SKIMP ON THIS SERVICE! Leah and her team are more than worth the cost (also, splurge and get the airbrush, it's amazing). Even before the day of, Leah was such a huge support and I don't know how many times she talked me off the ledge or out of my stress (which wasn't even her responsibility) about the wedding. She gave me a list of "nice to haves" which came in SO MUCH handy the day of. Leah and Brittany listened to our every want and need, and completely brought each of our hair and makeup visions to life on my wedding day. I changed and added things (like a true bridezilla) up until the very last minute and Leah accommodated me, no questions asked. Not to mention they stayed for extra time to make sure we were all touched up for photos. If I could recommend her 1,000x a day, I would. An absolute 10/10 experience, from start to finish. I can't thank Leah and Brittany enough for all they did. Don't even think or blink twice about hiring them!

She did the make up for myself and two other girls, while her partner/friend (I can't remember her name but she was also very nice) did our hair! I had my initial contacts with her through yelp and she was always able to respond and answer my questions very quickly. There were a few times I waffled on some stuff (as the communication with the two other girls I was trying to book for would change) but she was very patient and professional. I was able to book her for a Saturday morning. Leah traveled to our hotel room and was very prompt and arrived on the dot of our agreed time. I have to admit, I was kind of hungover from the festivities that took place the night before, but she was just very pleasant and really nice. Normally I wouldn't like being around people when I have those type of mornings, but she was just super chill. She listened to my makeup preference and did a great job with the airbrush application. She even recommended some makeup products and techniques. It was a very good experience and Leah and her hairdresser were so personable that it was like getting your prep done by a close friend! She would even show us funny videos on her phone. We felt really comfortable with her. The results were worth every penny and I am so glad we got the opportunity to work with her. I absolutely can't believe I forgot to yelp about this but I wish I could give them six stars! We were getting compliments left and right. Thanks Leah for the awesome experience and results! We definitely have you in mind for any upcoming events in the future!

At my trial I went with a half…read moreup/half down look and was obsessed, but then a few weeks before my wedding realized it was going to be triple digits on my wedding day and last minute decided I wanted to do a full up-do. Amber eliminated any stress I was having and scheduled a second hair trial for me to try out the up-do. She trimmed my hair during the trial so I had the framing in front of my face and I was obsessed. She has such a calming and warm energy that made working with her so easy. I had so many compliments on my wedding day and my hair withstood what ended up being a 113 degree day. It was absolutely amazing and all thanks to Amber! I couldn't recommend her enough!

    Salon MK - Request: neutral light brown balayage Final results: yellow brown highlights with uneven haircut

    I was hoping for a positive experience at Salon MK with Giselle Q, but I left very disappointed…read more The photos clearly speak for themselves but here's what happened-- When I first reached out to Salon MK in June, I was connected with Giselle and specifically requested a light brown, neutral balayage. We booked a balayage ($280) and a haircut ($85). I sent photos of my hair and several reference photos. During the appointment, she explained that balayage is essentially highlights, which made me a bit nervous, as I understand it to be more of a blended, ombré-style look. Still, I trusted her professional judgment. Unfortunately, the final result looked nothing like my reference photos..... The highlights leaned much more yellow and brown rather than the neutral tones I had requested, and they were also uneven, with some highlight sections noticeably thicker than others. The haircut itself was uneven, and the top layers were longer than the bottom section. She offered to fix it, which I appreciated, but by that point I already felt uneasy. I decided to give her a second chance since she was willing to fix the uneven haircut, so I went back in October for an all-over color before an important work event. I was very clear and specific about what I wanted and provided several reference photos beforehand- a dark, natural brown with subtle purple/reddish undertones. I explicitly asked to avoid black, copper, blonde, vivid red or purple tones, and NO highlights. We discussed this thoroughly, and I even said that if there was any hesitation, I'd prefer to play it safe with a darker brown balayage instead. Giselle reassured me she could achieve the color....... Unfortunately, the result was again nothing close to what I requested. My hair turned out coppery brown/red and still showed highlights, which I had specifically asked to avoid. I felt embarrassed going to my event with it. When I reached out the next day with photos, I was told that the custom conditioner I purchased should temporarily fix the issue. This was frustrating, as a conditioner with very minimal pigmentation shouldn't be relied on to correct a $165 color service, especially after I left a 20+% tip out of kindness. Overall, the results did not align at all with what we discussed or the reference photos I provided. My concerns weren't resolved, and I ultimately had to attempt to fix my hair myself before the event. Everyone's experience is different, but I wanted to share mine so others can make the decision that feels right for them and choose a stylist they feel 1000% confident with.

    I was really looking forward to trying this salon, but booking an appointment with Vanessa has been…read morean adventure in itself. Over the past week, I've sent a DM on Instagram, called the salon and requested a callback twice, and even texted -- all with zero response. I get that it's the busy holiday season, but even a quick "we're fully booked" would've been so appreciated! I'm pretty particular about my hair and I did my homework before choosing this spot, so I was genuinely excited. I'm not one to leave a bad review, but the silence has been a little disappointing. My friends wedding is in a few weeks and without a haircut Im going to show up looking like Hagrid from Harry Potter
