I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Blo Blow Dry Bar. Rebecca took care of me during my…read morehair and makeup appointment for my bridal shower. She was very professional and accommodating throughout the whole experience and made me feel very comfortable and at ease. She started off with an initial phone consultation the day before to get an idea of what I wanted and asked for inspo pics. I really appreciated that! On the day of, she did an amazing job blowing out my hair, curling it, braiding it (exactly like my inspo pic) and placing my tiara. She really took her time and ensured it was perfect! I loved how it turned out! She did an excellent job with my makeup as well. Since I wear a hijab (headscarf), I preferred a more private area to get ready. Heather (the owner) very graciously offered some space in their back room, which I gladly took her up on once the main blow dry bar area started filling up. I really appreciated how kind and accommodating everyone was throughout the whole experience! I would love to come back here again.

I probably have known Noreen since 1982. I believe I met her when I worked at the Lakewood Publix…read more Then I made a few purchases at her University Blvd. location. She is now located at 6029 Morrow Street 32217(still in the Lakewood area). Noreen is a sweetheart. We have been friends on Facebook, but now we have met up face to face again. I always feel blessed when I get to see her sharing her knowledge on television. My husband, Ernie went in with me. Noreen served us a wonderful piece of chocolate banana loaf cake. She also fixed me up with a healthy drink-made to supplement skin, hair and nails that you can buy at Whole Food Markets, she also gave me a $2.00 off coupon for the drink mix. Noreen can help you with any make up needs and wants. She will not sell you something that is not going to help you look great. Soon after we visited for about ten-fifteen minutes-she had several other ladies show up. So, I wanted to wrap up and get out of the way, so Noreen could assist the other customers. Noreen, what can I say? I am completely awed by you, your make-up and shop! You had me at "hello" today. You have won over a former customer back! I bought lip liner and two new lipsticks. I can't wait to try the new colors. You are a wonderful "Small Business" Owner. Jacksonville is blessed to have you here. Thank you for sending me a personal invite to your place today. I enjoyed my visit of many more to come.

I love MAC Cosmetics and I especially love this particular MAC store! I've been here many times to…read morepick up this, that, or the other and I've always been greeted by friendly, knowledgable, and helpful employees. The customer service here is absolutely outstanding! They give great advice when it comes to choosing different shades, etc. They always spend adequate time with me and I never feel rushed. It's a very nice change from the MAC stores in O-Town, but I can't say it's really the fault of the employees in O-Town, they just don't have the number of employees needed to handle their constantly packed, small stores. For those who don't know: ~ For every 6 empty MAC containers you return, you can choose a lipstick of your choice. Very cool deal and you're helping the environment! ~ They have limited edition shades that come out, so check in often so you don't miss something awesome! ~ Their eyeliner goes on like butter! I have tried many, many eyeliners and theirs is the best! Believe it or not, it's even better than Chanel (yes, I really just said something is better than Chanel)! ~ Purchase one of their magnetic eyeshadow cases, then purchase your eyeshadows individually and you can create your own palette. I LOVE that I can do this b/c I'm not real fond of pre-created palettes. ~ Their longwear lipcolour really does last ALL day! I can attest to this 100%! MAC is awesome! If you haven't already, try it out!

Last year I had treatment for invasive ductal carcinoma, Triple Negative Breast Cancer. Chemo,…read moresurgery & radiation. All rough on your body, mind & spirit! As a Cancer survivor, I've dealt with a lot. One of the most depressing things being losing my hair. My hair is growing back, but it's still awkward and I felt the need for a change! I'd seen Carrie on Channel 4's River City Live a few times doing makeovers and makeup lessons. I've done my makeup the same way for years. I don't wear much makeup, but I wanted to see how to maximize what I do use. I went to Carrie's website and booked an appointment. Easy peasy! Yesterday I spent an hour or so with Carrie. I found out that I'd been doing the opposite of what I should be doing with my eye makeup! I also learned that my current lipstick is a good shade for me; but also that, yes, I can wear (cherry) red lip color! Carrie showed me how to make my very light eyebrows show up and still look very natural. Carrie is such a friendly, positive person, and made my makeup lesson experience a happy one! Carrie also sells her own line of cosmetics. No pressure to purchase. Carrie focuses on what YOU want, which is refreshing. I recall going into stores for makeovers years ago, and the employees just slathered on the latest fads ... most of the time, you ended up walking out looking like a clown. Carrie also follows up after your session with an email detailing the techniques & products she used. So you can easily recreate everything at home. If you are looking for a change, or just want a little guidance on making the most of yourself, contact Carrie today!

Yay! I am so happy to see Kimmay on Yelp!…read more Kimmay has done my makeup now...let's see....4 times at least! My wedding, my sister's wedding, and 2 of my friends' weddings! She is great. Her prices are so reasonable, especially for Bridesmaids, no one wants to fork over a gazillion dollars to be one...but she will get you looking your best at a great price. She is fun and easy to work with and also taught me some new great tricks for doing my own makeup! My mom, who was nervous about getting hers done (she didn't want to look like a different person) even loved her makeup when it was done...she came to our hotel too, which was really nice.

She will speak your vision into existence without putting your hair's health at risk. She is the queen of balayages, haircuts, and beautiful blow-outs! I would literally trust her to do whatever she wanted with my hair knowing that it would still look amazing. Ana -- I went to Ana the very first time I wanted to try lash extensions. She was so caring and selfless that she advised me to try out a lash lift instead, as my natural lashes were already long. Knowing that it would cost much less (putting client first, business second). She is such a perfectionist and will take the time to make sure your lashes come out beautifully. After trying her extensions for a few months, she told me to take a break with a lash lift, to make sure my lashes would not get damaged. Any other business would just keep taking the client/money. Ana is such a sweet person. The salon itself has such clean/luxurious vibes, you will feel like a queen walking in and out of that place. In conclusion-- Do not walk - RUN to Bare Studios!
