She made me feel so beautiful and confident all day - exactly how you want to feel on your wedding day. She also did a great job with my mom and mother-in-law's makeup and hair. My lips were unfortunately a bit dry and peeling the morning of, but Pati used some sort of lip scrub and smoothed it right out. I was also worried about ruining my makeup since I knew I'd be crying during our private vows, but it stayed completely intact through all the tears. I was so impressed! If you're looking for someone talented who really listens to what you want and whose work actually lasts, I highly recommend Pati at Diem Angie!

I didn't even do a trial due to circumstance (I was arriving in town two days before the wedding), but everything turned out perfect. I was paired with Heather who was SO sweet. She was quick, kind, on time, and just genuinely a joy to work with. Everyone looked amazing; she pulled my vision for my wedding look right out of my head. I'm so grateful for her being a part of my special day and I would love the opportunity to get glammed by her again.

I was overdue to update my headshots, and a colleague recommended I get some professional grooming…read moredone beforehand so I'd actually like the photos. A quick search led me to goldplaited and their male grooming package, which seemed exactly like what I needed. I was looking for something really subtle and natural--just a more polished version of myself--and they nailed it. They took the time to understand the look I was going for and didn't rush the process at all. They also checked in along the way to make sure everything felt right, which I appreciated. Nothing felt overdone, but it made a noticeable difference once I got in front of the camera. I felt a lot more confident going into the shoot, and the photos turned out better than I expected. Super professional, easy to work with, and you can tell they care about getting it right. Really glad I found them.

Over the past four years, I've spent well over $20,000 at Goldplaited and have consistently…read moreappreciated the talented and kind stylists who work there. Unfortunately, my experiences with one of the owners have been very different. I've since moved away from Chicago but have returned 6-8 times over the past year and a half, and it has become increasingly clear that my loyalty as a longtime client is taken for granted. When this particular owner is involved in my appointments, I often feel rushed through my service rather than treated like a returning client. I've also repeatedly been placed with less experienced stylists, even after years of consistently supporting the business and spending a significant amount of money here. What is most disappointing is the overall attitude. My interactions with this owner have consistently felt cold, dismissive, and unaccommodating. After four years of loyalty, I don't expect special treatment, but I do expect the same level of care and customer service that any client should receive. The rest of the staff has always been kind, hardworking, and welcoming, which is why I continued coming back for so long. Unfortunately, the way one of the owners treats a longtime client, and the feeling that my continued business is simply assumed rather than valued, has really changed how I feel about a salon I once loved.

I told miles this and without putting too much hair spray or making my hair brittle, she managed to give me curls that last a full 24 hours!

Our wedding was almost 1 month ago, and I've been trying for weeks to find the appropriate words…read morethat convey the gratitude I have for Joanna (Joanna B. Artistry). Joanna is one of a kind, extremely personable and a true professional in the industry. Our original wedding date was set for 8/15/20 and getting engaged less than a year before, I was in a rush to lock in my team of vendors. I reached out to a friend who sent me multiple MUA suggestions, one being Joanna, as my friend was a bridesmaid in a recent wedding of hers. Joanna was available for my date and after chatting on the phone I quickly locked her in for myself plus 8 bridesmaids, my mom and future mother in law. We did my initial makeup trial in December 2020 and I was the bride that brought a few inspiration photos but didn't really give much direction to the look I was going for. Joanna was patient, confident and so skilled that she knew what look would complement my features/skin tone and went to work. She delivered A+ bridal glam while still having me look like my natural self, false lashes and all. She even updated my look right then after the trial by adding a red lip for my engagement shoot that afternoon, which was such a sweet and unexpected gesture. Fast forward to spring 2020, pandemic in full swing and a new wedding date of 6/26/21. Joanna stuck with me through all the many changes, didn't take advantage of the situation by adding contract addendum fees and even offered a Black Friday deal for rehearsal dinner glam for her brides. She stayed in touch, checked in and made me feel confident and excited for our new wedding date. Joanna also stayed on top of beauty and makeup trends while events were all cancelled or postponed during the spring. Her Instagram is my favorite as she shares honest opinions/reviews about both skin and makeup products. I also booked another make up session for round 2 engagement photos with Joanna that October and it's true talent when you can create multiple looks on the same person for different occasions. On the wedding day, Joanna brought an assistant with her (as planned) for our wedding day as we had 11 people total and her assistant was top of the line talent as well. My whole bridal party felt beautiful and our makeup lasted the entire night without even needing to touch up (although Joanna provides her brides with a generous touch up kit, just in case). It's also important to note that it was raining sideways and extremely humid, but looking at the bridal party, you'd never know judging by our long lasting glam. I highly recommend getting your makeup done for the rehearsal as well as I wish there was a recording of my reaction when Joanna showed me the "finished product" in the mirror. I was SO excited and after already having 2 trials, having one the day before the wedding made me confident that I would feel like my best self on the biggest day of my life and let me tell you, I did. I have never felt so beautiful in my entire life. I have also never seen my mom look so gorgeous and it made me happy that she was so happy! I call Joanna a wizard because she's casually chatting with you, so calm, focused and voila! hands you the mirror and it's truly a natural work of art. I'm already trying to think of reasons why I need my makeup professionally done to utilize Joanna again. I could not recommend anyone better and trust you are in GREAT hands with the loveliest of professionals, Joanna B. Artistry. Photos by @annkamphoto

First, she is…read moreextremely talented - my bridesmaids, mother, and mother in law, looked flawless for the entire day and night. She crushes everything from a natural to glam look, and you will still look like "yourself". Second, she uses the best products and has excellent recommendations - I now have a completely updated skincare and make-up routine. Third, she is extremely responsive and organized. She will follow-up with you after your trial to see what worked and what did not - and she will remember all of those details on your wedding day months later. We all felt absolutely beautiful and confident, and I took pride in giving my bridesmaids the "gift" of Joanna!

They are truly my one stop shop to make me feel beautified. When you trust someone to tattoo your face, it says a lot about their abilities. I highly recommend them for any beauty service.

Chyla did such a wonderful job creating a look that made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself.
