And im just very disappointed in the service. I came in to get my chunky highlights touched up. I wanted only two colors in my hair blonde and black, ended up leaving with 3 different shades of blonde, brown and black. Then the list continues came in with raccoon tails looking to get them touched up just for her to not even touch them leaving them a different shade of blonde than the rest of my hair not to mention she didn't use black to touch up them either. I was left with scalp burns all over my head and right in the front where my bangs cover And you think I'm done oh I'm not she puts a cape on me just to still spill bleach all over my sweater and shirt. Which you guessed it turned that ugly orange color. Still despite all these facts I was willing to overlook them and offered her the idea of a discounted service next time willing to give her a second chance just to be followed with the fact she's not comfortable doing the service I wanted. I'm just upset she didn't offer any other solution just excepts me to just walk away all high a dry. Just the way that this was handled. She could've handled it a lot better. I'm the client. I'm not the one that who's supposed to tell you to come with ideas of how to fix it. You are supposed to fix it yourself. My stylist was Anissa go to her at your own risk. And I was not given a full refund I was given 170 when I paid 205. Just keep these things in mind when going to anyone working here. Was not offered replacement for the clothes she damaged either.

I didn't know where to begin looking, so my sister, a badass social media savvy hairdresser, suggested I start with Instagram. Swipe, no, too much smoky eye, no, cakey... then the waves parted and I saw Raven Reed's pics. Her clients were diverse in ethnicity, age, skin tone, and everyone looked absolutely beautiful and most importantly, like themselves but kicked up a notch-- exactly what I was looking for. From our initial convo, I knew she was my match. The day of, she gave me a mini facial before putting my makeup on, and just felt like one of the girls. She did her thing, and I admit I looked and felt really pretty. Her pricing was worth the investment. Our wedding photographers cost alot of money, so what's the point of having awesome photos if your makeup doesn't look great in person AND photos? To boot, she gave me a little kit to keep my T-zone shine at bay and lip color on point after dinner. I already know I'll book Raven for future photo sessions and 100% recommend her talent and warm personality for any Bay Area bride. She was prompt, professional, communicative, down-to-earth, and beyond talented. Thank you Raven!!!

Raven also did hair and makeup for our sisters and moms, and she brought two other artists to round out her team. They were all incredible -- full of good energy, laughter, and calm. The morning felt joyful and relaxed, and I didn't feel a single ounce of stress once I sat in her chair. On top of her talent, Raven was professional and organized. My coordinator commented on how great her communication was, and my photographer was impressed with how punctual and efficient she and her team were. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

She's extremely professional and our photos turned out INCREDIBLE! She was able to capture so many beautiful moments. Tiffany was really calm throughout everything which was extremely appreciated as stress levels can be elevated. We often didn't even know she was there - just working her magic behind the camera. While she wasn't familiar with our wedding venue, she quickly learned where to take photos and make use of the natural lighting. She had great suggestions for us prior to our big day and has a lot of helpful docs to share to help with the planning process.

The trial makeup lasted all day- and looked very fresh hours later. Of course- we hired her to do our makeup for the big day! She came to our hotel the morning of my wedding- and did makeup and eyelashes on a bridesmaid, my mom, and myself. She is so easy going and tons of fun! Just what I needed on the day of the wedding since I was getting very nervous. I woke up the morning of my wedding not looking very rested (or pretty!) and once Teresa did my makeup and eyelashes- I felt like a million bucks! My makeup turned out exactly as I had hoped for my walk down the aisle. She is very good at doing what YOU want and making sure you still look like yourself. I hope to have the chance to use her again in the future.

We loved her so much, my matron of honor considered flying her out to do our makeup for the reception we were having in California later that year. (Then the reality of the cost set in.) Luckily, fate led me to Vanessa Artistry / Beauty Mark Ink. Vanessa came to my house with everything ready to go--makeup, lighting and everything needed to glam us up. She was a professional perfectionist, ensuring me and my gals looked and felt our very best. We are a bunch of middle-aged women; youth was not on our side, but this pro did wonders for us! I'll admit, I was a little nervous wondering if anyone was going to be able to live up to the wonderful artist who did our makeup back in May, but my fear was for not. Vanessa was wonderful! A true artist!

This review for my August 2017 wedding is long overdue! What…read moreamazing service! From beginning to end, I had a great experience with Andrea and Vanessa. I thoroughly did my research and contacted about 15 hair and makeup artists and had a methodical spreadsheet approach on cost, what each business offered, and if they had airbrush makeup, since my friends who have gotten married before highly recommended it. Keep in mind, I am not really into makeup on a day to day basis, and I have a headful of frizzy curls that I can't manage on a daily basis. I was also nervous about my face being too overdone or not looking like myself. Vanessa and Andrea were quick to respond to emails from day one. They were flexible in dates for my hair & makeup trial, and were able to accommodate me in the bedroom of my 1 bedroom condo. I loved the way the trial went- the airbrush makeup looked flawless and my hair was awesome! PRO TIP: Schedule your hair & makeup THE SAME DAY as when you go wedding dress shopping- it REALLY helps put the entire look together and visualize how everything will look on your wedding day. MAKE SURE to add buffer time from your hair & make up appointment to getting to your dress appointment. After the trial, I wrote them notes about what I did and didn't like afterwards, and they easily accommodated me. They recommended for a fuller look that I get extensions, and Andrea came by my house once again to make sure she ordered the right color. Vanessa went into a lot of detail as to what was included in the VIP service, which is what I ended up investing in. That includes them coming to the venue and doing a touch up. Fast forward to the wedding day- they arrived on time, and they really helped set the tone of the entire day. They were mellow, easy to get along with, and my bridesmaids, mother in law and sister in law all felt at ease with them. 2 of my bridesmaids also had curly hair, and they looked absolutely BEAUTIFUL with their hair and makeup done. Everyone looked gorgeous and at the sametime, themselves. ONE MORE PRO TIP: In addition to how much Vanessa estimates for your hair & makeup, add in an extra half hour on top of that to put your dress, shoes, and jewelry on when putting your wedding timeline together. With all the hecticness, that extra half hour really was needed! I am so glad I invested in the VIP service- Vanessa and Andrea had set up in the Japanese Tea House which I had rented extra at the Piedmont Community Hall. It was a perfect setup for them. Before and after the ceremony they were on standby to touch up makeup. After shedding a few tears, this was much needed! It set up me up for my makeup & hair to last the entire night. Andrea even got off some sticky glitter that mysteriously appeared on my husband- lol! The hair and makeup was a true investment, and to be quite honest, more than I had budgeted to spend. But when I look back at my wedding pictures and videography, I am SO glad I chose Beauty Mark. I felt so beautiful and flawless on one of the biggest days of my life, which is so important on your wedding day! I would happily recommend them to any bride. They truly added to my amazing day.
