So here's my story. I'm a wedding planner and so I never leave bad reviews, this is tough for me to write. I hired Danielle Pierce to do my hair and makeup for my big day, Oct 7 2023. I signed a contract for hair and makeup and she took my card information on a contract via email, illegally hooked it up to a cash app account, and drained my account. I emailed my contract and card information over in a PDF attachment to her, and then she emailed back and asked if I have cash app. I said I didn't, and the next day my bank alerted a transaction that said Cash App Evan Bonzo for $500 and since that was her minimum and I had told her I'd pay it in full I thought that's what it was. It seemed like a weird way to do it, since I don't even have cash app, but she sent me a receipt two days later and said her accountant had taken care of it, so I thought -- that's it, paid. Then more money came out from the same thing a week later ($400), cash app under the same name. So, I said something to her about it and asked her if it was her. She said it was not, and she didn't recognize the name, she said she has been hacked too and I should talk to my bank. When I explained that I do not see the $500 she said she pulled and sent me a receipt for she responded that she actually never received my deposit after all. When I said I wanted her accountants information so that I could talk to the person that was supposed to have charged my card because I'm filing fraudulent charges and wanted more information, she did not respond to that question. She simply keeps letting me know that I can mail a check, since she now claims she never got my deposit. When I look her up her website has been taken down, and all of the most recent reviews are how people never got their deposits back. Not to mention, her business isn't listed on the Better Business Bureau website, even as an unaccredited business... so basically, it's all a sham. All in all, horrible experience and I wouldn't recommend her to anyone unless you want to lose your money and never get it back. I've filed a police report, and taken the proper steps with bank to stop the card -- but do not trust this woman! read more

**this is a review of Danielle's communication and professionalism, and not of her actual services- as i never ended up having her do my hair or makeup. I first contacted Danielle on December 5th regarding Hair & Makeup services for my June 8th wedding. Was looking to book 14 services for 10 people (which equaled over $1300 in services). Between Dec 5th and January 31st, we emailed regarding these services- many times I needed to email her a second time to follow up to an email she did not respond to, or to ask her to send the contract that she kept saying she would send, but did not. Despite this, and seeing one other bad review where the person reported she was a bad communicator, I decided to move forward with booking Danielle- I wasn't thrilled with many other options in the area. On January 31st I scanned in my contract, which had my CC info on it, and asked her if she needed me to send a hard copy as well. She said I did not, confirmed receipt of my contract and we were all good. Fast forward to March 7th, when I received an email from Danielle asking that "should she still have my date available, if I would like to book with her"..... ummmmm WHAT?! So, I replied (5 minutes after she sent the email) and stated that I had already booked and for her to confirm this was true. I figured "maybe its an oversight" and then also forwarded the email chain where I had sent my contract and she had confirmed receipt. Friday morning, I had still heard nothing, so I found her phone number and called and then texted her. I knew it was a cell phone because the voicemail gave me the same message that my voicemail gives. Friday afternoon, I still had not heard, so i sent yet another email- expressing my dissatisfaction and requesting a response by end of business day, at least just letting me know that she had received my emails and was looking into it. Here we are, 4 days later, and I have yet to hear a single word from Danielle. Where does this leave me? Less than 3 months out from a wedding where I need 14 services done, have contacted numerous hair/makeup girls in the area, for them to all tell me they are already booked. Is this surprising? NO. This is why I started looking in December. Despite this, even if Danielle was to contact me now, I would NOT move forward with her- I do not trust that she would show on my wedding day. I don't think there are really enough words to express the level of disrespect, unprofessionalism and lack of care for others that Danielle has shown during this process and most specifically, throughout the last 4 days. EVEN if there was a crisis happening in your life- as a business owner, you find 2 minutes within a 4 day span to respond to an email, phone call or text. If someone cannot keep up with their correspondence with clients, nor keep things organized, I don't believe working in the wedding business is for them. This day is so HUGELY important to so many, and to have to deal with this throughout the process is so disappointing. I would recommend looking elsewhere for your hair/makeup wedding day services. Best part of all of this? In Danielle's contract, she requires a 20% tip from each and every person. Now, this tip amount is pretty standard and usually what I would tip a hair/makeup girl in a normal situation where I was happy with the service (including showing up on time, doing a good job, being professional etc.).... so when I saw it included in my total price, I didn't bat an eye- even though I received many contracts from other hair/makeup artists where this tip was NOT included. Looking back, I realize she likely includes this because she wants to guarantee herself a tip despite less than professional business standards. **update: 2 hours after posting this review, I received two emails and one text from Danielle stating she was sick and had not even glanced at her phone in 4 days. Somehow.... I found it very hard to believe, especially considering I replied to the email she sent me on Thursday within 5 minutes. Also, it seemed odd that she was all better as soon as I posted the reviews. She offered to move forward with the services, but I chose to find another artist. She may be fantastic at hair & makeup, so I don't want to discount that, but there are MANY things that go into being a business owner, and if you are going to run one- you need to take responsibility for those things as well. read more

I go to Danielle several times throughout the year for my highlight touch ups. I am very picky when it comes to who I let process and/or cut my hair (after multiple bad experiences in the past.) But Danielle gets it right every time. She always finds out EXACTLY what I'm looking to have done. Where some hair stylist may hear "highlights" and assume they know how I want my hair to look, Danielle asks for specifics (shade of blonde? natural look? etc.) I also had Danielle do my makeup in August 2015 for a wedding I was in. I wanted a natural look that was just bold enough to stand out in photos. She nailed it! I've also been spray tanned by Danielle - which resulted in a natural bronze look. The only downfall was that it eventually faded back to my normal pale skin tone. Throughout every beauty experience, Danielle has given me her honest opinion. She will tell me what hair color works best for me, what hair cut works best for my face shape, etc. I really respect that because I don't ever feel like she's just trying to sell me on something or rush me through. She's patient and relaxed, a true professional. She's also extremely educated and up to date on all things beauty related. So if you're looking for compliments on your beauty, Danielle is the girl you want to see! read more

See all

Danielle agreed to do my makeup and a couple bridesmaid's hair and makeup for my wedding in May 2020. Instead of paying her 50% of the cost for the deposit like she requested before the wedding, I paid the full 100% to not worry about costs the day of the wedding. Due to COVID, my wedding was cancelled over a month before the wedding date. I had contacted Danielle and told her about the cancellation with NO response. I didn't hear anything from her with calls and emails unanswered. The wedding day came and went as we decided to have immediate family members only for our May 2020 wedding. After the wedding I tried for months calling, texting, and emailing Danielle. Even through her Instagram and Facebook business page with no response. I understand the 50% deposit may not have been able to be returned to me from her because during COVID, the cancellation was unexpected. BUT Danielle didn't even give us any service and she took 100% of our funds we had given her for the services in advance. As a customer I feel taken advantage of and that she stole our money with no communication. She still has yet to return any calls or emails. I'm extremely frustrated and would never trust her again with any services. It is not a way to conduct a business. We have Danielle a lot of grace over the months with nice calls and texts. Not one was returned. Now she still has 50% of the money we have to her that was supposed to be for her services of hair and makeup she never even gave to us. read more
