From the moment I walked into Emily's studio, I felt completely at peace. There is something about…read moreher presence that is calm, focused, and intentional. I immediately trusted her, and that trust was more than deserved. During our trial, we explored five completely different looks. She approached each one with such precision and artistry. On pageant day, she did not just do my makeup. She transformed me. She knew exactly how to accentuate my features while still allowing me to look like the most elevated version of myself. My eyes have never looked that defined or luminous. The way she understands color and blending is on another level. Every shade melts seamlessly into the next. It is true artistry. She works beautifully under pressure. Pageant mornings are intense and emotional, yet she remained composed and meticulous the entire time. Her hair skills are just as extraordinary as her makeup skills. She can truly bring any vision to life. As an Eastern Asian woman, I especially appreciate how deeply she understands our features. She enhances instead of masking. She brings out your beauty rather than covering it. I did not have to edit a single photo. The makeup looked flawless in real life, on camera, and on stage under harsh lighting. I received compliments all night, even from my very hard to impress Asian family. And honestly, I attribute so much of my confidence and even my victory as Miss Los Angeles Chinatown 2026 to Emily. She did not just glam me. She elevated me. She made me feel powerful. If you are looking for someone who delivers technical excellence, emotional intelligence, and true artistry all at once, Emily is it. I would trust her with any milestone in my life.

I met with her at her studio which was a very tidy, professional setting with great lighting and tons of makeup products. Her tools were all laid out ahead of time, with clean fluffy brushes and all her makeup products organized just a step away. She took her time and was quite thorough with every step of the makeup, starting with the consultation and inspiration. I opted for a shimmery, pearly look to match my theme and dress. Emily was able to match my color perfectly and made me look airbrushed which was amazing. I found her to be very responsive and amenable when I asked to focus on certain areas like contouring my jawline or adding more blush. We found the perfect eyelashes and she really emphasized my eyes, which looked so much bigger after she did her magic. I found myself looking over the products she used and I was happy to see lots of brands I personally used and recognized on top of luxury brands. I loved how my makeup came out at the end of the 1.5 hour appt, and would happily go to her again for future events. At the end, she asked if there was anything I wanted to add or change and I didn't need anything else done- she did my makeup exactly the way I wanted. She's an excellent artist local to me that I would highly recommend!

If you are familiar with the industry: she got a better booking that would make her more money and waited last minute to try and force my daughter's appoint to 10 hours before her event. And she's a bad liar...you know the type: they ramble, they over explain, etc. Simply put: she does business dirty. Unless you have a wedding with a large party that will make her more money she won't be loyal to your booking. Lastly, it took over 12 hours from the time it was confirmed I would not be using her, a venmo request, and a text to get my deposit refunded while I scrambled to find a replacement. We booked someone who came in on their birthday weekend when she heard what happened. My daughter looked STUNNING. Girl, bye. Have the life you deserve. Does dirty business.

Didn't look like the picture I requested and I had to fix the front a little at home but the curls were still nice and lasted noon till about 8pm. Make up matched my skin tone. Gotta love that! I have dark circles under my eyes and they were not visible!! Loved that!! I don't think that that the make up creased at my wrinkle. Loved that too. But it wasn't like the picture I showed. At home I had to lighten up the brows and take off some eye shadow. They've done my hair before and I loved it so I wanted to try it for my son's wedding. It wasn't as glamorous as I hoped, So I'm not sure if I'll use them or not for his wedding. Maybe if I go with the blow out vs hot iron curls. Price point seemed fair. I'll still go there in the future because they are local and have great blow outs.

You can tell she truly cares about her clients and wants to get to know them.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Joyce Luck Style for our wedding, and we couldn't have…read moreasked for a better experience. Joyce is an incredibly talented hair and makeup artist. Seeing her in action on our wedding day, making sure everything was perfect for us and our families, made us appreciate her even more. Leading up to the wedding, Joyce did a bridal preview session with the bride to discuss and refine the vision for her hair and makeup. This extra step made all the difference--by the time the big day arrived, they were completely in sync, and everything came together flawlessly. When Joyce and her team arrived, they brought such a calm and positive energy, instantly putting everyone at ease. Weddings can be hectic, but they kept everything running smoothly and on schedule while making sure each person felt comfortable and confident. Joyce and her team took care of hair and makeup for the bride, her bridesmaids, and our families. Everyone looked absolutely incredible. She has an amazing ability to enhance each person's natural beauty while tailoring their look to suit their personal style. The results were elegant, timeless, and held up beautifully throughout the entire day--through happy tears, hours of dancing, and all the little emotional moments in between. What truly sets Joyce apart, though, is her warmth and genuine care for her clients. She wasn't just there to do hair and makeup; she was there to make sure everyone felt their best, and she did it with so much kindness, patience, and expertise. We are beyond grateful to have had her as a part of our wedding day and wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend her to anyone looking for a top-tier hair and makeup artist. Joyce Luck Style is simply the best!

I had the joy of working with their team for three major events - my engagement shoot, traditional Vietnamese engagement ceremony, and wedding - and each time, they exceeded every expectation. Devon was amazing with my hair - from styling my bangs for our engagement shoot over a year ago to creating the most elegant updo for the wedding day. She even designed it so I could easily take it down for the reception, and it still looked flawless. Melody worked pure magic with my makeup. I've never really worn makeup before, so I put my full trust in her - and she made me look so naturally beautiful I could cry. My bridesmaids and mom were equally thrilled with their looks, and everyone felt so confident and radiant. What's even more impressive is that after an 18-hour day - starting hair and makeup at 6 a.m. and celebrating until midnight - not a single smudge or curl was out of place. Truly remarkable. Thank you, Luong Lasting, for being such an essential and unforgettable part of our wedding day. You made us all feel our absolute best, and I'm endlessly grateful!

Thank goodness my friend Christine referred me to Kim & Luong Lasting and I honestly am so glad I found Kim and Ysabelle for my big day. I hired Kim and Ysabelle for my bridal & bridal party hair & makeup. Kim did all of our hair and Ysabelle did our makeup. From the very beginning of our trial, I was impressed with the team's communication and transparency. Luong Lasting was quick to respond in answering my questions through messages and emails. Kim and Ysabelle are both very lovely and easy going. They made my family and bridal party feel comfortable and at ease. They applied just the amount of makeup we asked for and gave the most fabulous up-dos. I loved their attention to deal. Always asking me how I felt about everything they did and applied on my face. I felt like they both genuinely cared about me and was always open to feedback and changes. Kim and Ysabelle made it easy and comfortable to tell them how I wanted my makeup and hair done. Let them know what you want and they'll make it happen! I was blown away by how efficient they both worked around our busy wedding schedule. Kim and Ysabelle gave me beautiful makeup and voluminous hair in 2 hours! They worked fast, but everything was precisely done. My hair and makeup lasted all night!! No reapplication needed except for my lipstick. I can't thank these two enough for making me feel like the most beautiful bride ever. A big thank you and shout out to Kim, who at the last minute, worked her schedule around for me to be available on my wedding day. I literally cried when she said she would do this huge favor. Again, THANK YOU BOTH!
