Great place to get things tailored. The quality of work is superb and reasonable price. Would recommend to anyone. Tina is awesome.

I had an amazing experience here at Hem Up. I'm attending a wedding at the end of May and needed my dress hemmed plus a couple other things. Tina was very sweet and knowledgeable when she was pinning up my dress. She gave me her opinion on what she thought looked best but also let me make the final decision on what I liked. I will be back if I need anything else altered. read more

I was referred to Hem Up by a friend and have been coming back to Tina for all of my alterations. She is such a sweet lady and takes so much pride in her work. The most beneficial thing about coming here is that she also provides suggestions. Like the first time I came here I wanted to crop an oversized button up, she did recommend cropping the sleeves as well, which I can't guarantee other places would let me know about that. All my friends have been going to her and I can't recommend her enough! Her pricing is extremely fair for the quality they deliver and pretty fast turn around time. It's best to call or text her before coming in because I think it's appointment preferred. read more

Hem Up is by far the best alteration place I've ever been to! Tina hemmed my dress to the perfect floor length where I wouldn't step on the dress while walking. She did an incredible job -- I'm a perfectionist and the hem was perfectly straight and neat. She also suggested that we add padding to the breast area, and it really helped make the dress look so much better on me. She has an eye for customizing the dress fit to your body type! She also fixed the stitching on the back of my dress which was coming apart. I took my dress in on Easter Sunday for a wedding on Saturday, and she had it done by Thursday the same week. She finished everything a day earlier than expected to allow time for any last minute revisions, which weren't needed! Price was also reasonable. All of the above cost $70! I'd absolutely come back to Hem Up for future alterations and have already recommended her shop to family and friends. I got so many compliments on my dress! Thank you, Tina! read more

Hem Up - Tina hemmed my dress perfectly, added bra padding, and fixed the back stitching on my dress that was coming apart! - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Very nice owner/manager and employees. I went in to have a few vests sewed shut so I didn't pop the buttons open at the chest and they had it done right away and for a great price. I'll happily bring all my tailoring to them. Your ticket will be a text between you and the shop, so don't forget your phone! read more

The owner is so very sweet and kind. I needed several pairs of pants to be hemmed so I made an appointment to get them tailored. After arriving at the store, I was greeted by the owner. She told me to change into one of the pair of pants and then she began measuring me. We discussed how I wanted the pants to be tailored and she gave me some wonderful feedback. When picking up the pants after they were tailored, the owner asked me to try them on again and see how I liked the fit. The pants were absolutely perfect!!!! If you need anything to be tailored definitely come here. The owner is such a sweetheart. read more

i got my ao dai dry cleaned here and i would 100% come back! tina was super communicative through phone and text and was very friendly. the price was extremely fair considering my ao dai was classified as a wedding ao dai and it came back clean, free of wrinkles, and smelling great! highly recommend! p.s. her store decor was also super cute too! read more

2 years ago, I walked into Hem Up with my older sister who was getting married in 3 days. She needed last minute alterations done and while everyone else in OC turned us away, Tina took us in and saved us! I told Tina that when it was my turn to get married, I'd come to her - and I kept that promise!! Gave Tina my wedding dress that had a bazillion layers, needed to be shorter, and needed a bustle... 1 week before my wedding. I know - I'm insane and very irresponsible. But of course, Tina saved me. She might've given me a well deserved lecture, but she saved me. Beautiful job, quick turnaround time, friendly, and reasonably priced. Tina's is the only place I'll get alterations done in OC. read more

Originally went in with two other bridesmaids to get our dresses altered. I only needed the length cut and to add a little sleeve on my dress. She insisted I had to add pads to the chest and open up the waist since I had "no shape". I was hesitant but trusted her opinion. I was quoted $100 on my receipt, paid half the amount on the first day. Second fitting, I had to remind them about the sleeves. Turns out, they threw away my extra fabric from the bottom and had to use my cousin's fabric. They almost added sleeves to her dress by mistake. I get a call two weeks later and she tells me something that doesn't make sense, realizes she dialed the wrong number and hung up on me. Third fitting, the pads and sleeves are not sewn in and made me wait 5 minutes to quickly finish. When it's time to pay, she mentioned she "won't charge an extra $20 for the sleeves" and will only charge $15. I thought this was already included in the original quote. I was so annoyed that I agreed to pay and leave. I just hope she honors her quotes in the future. read more

I found a simple wedding dress I loved for an amazing price, but it just didn't fit the way I imagined. Since I had just moved to the area, I was nervous about finding the right alterations place--but finding Hem Up was the best decision. There's a reason it's so highly reviewed. At my first fitting, Tina completely changed how I saw my dress. She didn't just hem it--she helped me see its full potential by adjusting the straps and bodice in a way that made it feel like my dress. She also squeezed in time to fix my wife's suit after another place didn't get it right, which meant so much to us. Tina is efficient, professional, and so easy to work with. She made the whole experience feel calm and even fun during such a busy time. I'm so grateful we found her. read more

Tina took me same day on a Sunday, with very little notice. She was kind and helpful in altering a lace dress which wasn't a simple task. She made great recommendations and was very kind. I highly recommend her services. She was able to accommodate this in a few days so that I could attend a formal wedding. Price was reasonable, thank you Tina! read more

I did a drop in without scheduling an appointment and they were able to help me out! I brought 3 pants, one skirt, and one dress and my total came out to be around $105. The attention to detail here is amazing. I came in expecting to just alter my items shorter, but they also tailored my clothes to fit and flatter my body better! They charge a bit more than the usual alterations place, but they guarantee free fixes if you need something changed. Not only that, but the space here is beautifully decorated with a huge fitting room. I will most definitely be coming back! read more

1 star for speed. 0 stars for quality and attention to detail. Asked her to hem the sleeves on an expensive suit jacket, which required buttons to be taken up. However, the buttons are misaligned and overlap each other. Upon closer inspection, she marked the new button placement with BLUE INK, which will be fun to try to remove when I have to take this jacket to another tailor to redo the buttons. The sleeves are also flared. She won't take accountability and tried to say the jacket came like that. Look at the pictures and tell me if you think the buttons came like that. Definitely would not trust to redo. read more

Second time coming to Tina and as always, I'm speechless! I needed last minute major alterations for my cosplay last minute (within a week) and Tina saved the day by squeezing me in!! I trust no one else other than her to fix my cosplays and highly recommend her! She won't disappoint! read more

I typically don't get my clothes altered because I felt like it wasn't worth it, but Tina completely changed my mind Tina believes in altering your clothes to what looks good for your body shape and has a really good eye for what looks good on you. She emphasizes that she wants to alter your clothes to your liking and wants you leaving satisfied, so don't be shy to offer your input and thoughts when communicating your concerns with her! I'm only 5 feet tall so finding clothes that fit me well can be challenging. I have always wanted to buy long skirts but it's so difficult to find ones that I don't look like I'm drowning in fabric. I decided to buy a few long skirts and asked Tina to adjust the taper and length. She gave me a lot of good feedback that I didn't even think of on how the skirts could fit me even better such as suggesting to tighten the waist, etc. When I received the skirts, it's like they were made for my body! She's really opened my eyes on how spending a little more to alter your clothes can really be worth it to help you feel more confident in your clothes. Tina spends extra time and attention to make sure your clothes fit you well and I've had no issues with how long it takes for her and her team to finish the alteration. She's such a fun time to talk to and has been keeping me as a repeat customer. read more

Tina, she is extremely nice and always offers her expertises and recommendations on how to alter your clothes. For me, it was my prize possession, Kobe Bryant authentic, Mitchell and Ness jerseys!! IYKYK I trusted her for one of the Kobe jersey and it came out fantastic! The length of the jersey was too long and my concern was the patches being relocated I remembered receiving a text a couple of days prior to the ETA that was quoted for me on the receipt and in person. It came out like I bought it online or at the Laker Store in El Segundo!!! Tina won me over and I started to bring in all my authentic NBA Kobe Bryant jersey to her. I brought in a couple of jeans for her to tailor and it came out fresh! She was able to taper match and cut the length off. I will continue to come to her business. Great person, and very welcoming! Highly recommended! read more

I came in to have the length of 10 t-shirts hemmed, and the experience was great from start to finish. Tina carefully measured each shirt to the exact length I wanted and had everything ready even earlier than promised. The total came out to $110, which I found great for the quality and service. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

So happy to have found Tina for all of my tailoring needs - I will always recommend her! As a petite girl, I always need to get things hemmed because clothes are always too long or too big on me. Tina has done a fantastic job hemming my formal dresses, ao dais, and jumpsuits for the past few years. Her work is immaculate and she has great attention to detail. She also has a great eye and always makes great recommendations (ex: making a leg slit longer or altering to make the outfit work to your body shape). Her prices are very reasonable and I've never had to wait more than a week for something to be done. read more

Make an appointment if you can! Tina is very busy. I walked in on a Saturday and luckily didn't have to wait long, but Tina told me to make an appointment for next time or else the wait could be really long. I chose Hem Up to get my pants hemmed since it's also open Sundays and had good reviews. My walk-in experience was good! Tina had me try on my pants and she pinned them after asking me how I would wear them. I paid $30 to get two pants hemmed. She estimated it would be done in 7-10 days since it was a simple alteration. I wasn't in a rush so I said 2 weeks was okay. I got a text on Wednesday that it was ready for pick up! That was only 4 days! I sent my boyfriend to pick up the pants and they came home on their own hangers inside a plastic cover. They were hemmed as expected so I definitely won't hesitate to come back to get other alterations done. read more

I brought in two pairs of wide-leg joggers and two pairs of overalls that I ordered online, and unfortunately nothing fit like the website described. It was pretty frustrating at first. The girls here completely took care of me. They took their time with each piece, gave honest opinions about what would and wouldn't work, and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I was even given a discount since I had several items. It turned a bad online shopping experience into a really positive one. Great customer service and attention to detail. I highly recommend this business! read more

Tina really took care of me. Her shop is very busy, I recommend calling to schedule with her. At times I felt rushed but in the end I just can't say enough how much she took care of me. I needed alterations for a quickly put together wedding and I was going through a few medical issues and had to cancel appointments but she still got everything done for me and I felt so beautiful. It's a strange detail but I even bled from a wound on the front of my wedding dress and she took care of it without blinking an eye and told me not to worry! She really cares about the level of her work and it shows. I can't thank her and her team enough. read more

I bought my wedding dress off the rack so it was really big on me. I brought it to another alteration place and while they did fix the back to my liking, I still did not feel confident in my dress from the front. It didn't look snatched and didn't feel very fitting to my body. I decided to bring my dress to Tina at Hem Up and she listened to my concerns and was very easy to talk to. She also had a lot of knowledge and understood exactly what was wrong with the dress and she saw what I saw. I felt so relieved! She fixed it to snatch the waist and show more of my curves and also fixed the boob part by taking out the stiff fabric so that my boobs didn't look awkward. She's amazing and definitely knows what she's doing! Highly recommend. I will be back for other alteration needs. Thank you Tina! read more

I've been helped by Tina at Hem Up multiple times, twice for a wedding and once for a prom dress for my sister. Both times she has impressed me with her attention to detail and her passion for her work. I usually come in with a dress thinking I just need it shortened, but Tina always makes the best suggestions that elevate the dress from what was originally imagined. In fact it probably ends up looking better than when originally bought. She has an eye for fashion and that truly shines in her work-- she isn't just doing the bare minimum or suggesting random alterations. The product always comes back fitting seamlessly in all places despite the dress being multi-layered, multi-material, and complicated. Her pricing is always fair for her work and all that she puts in, and the turnaround time is quick as well. I really appreciate Tina and it feels like family when you're here. She's accommodated my sister and I multiple times at the last minute and always checks up on us. Thanks Co!! read more

There is a bit of translation needed but be patient and they will do a good job for you at a reasonable price.

Great prices and very good service. I had a bridesmaid dress shortened and adjusted on the sides. It was complicated given the low back but they made it work so well!

I reached out on Yelp for an appointment. Tina responded immediately with an availability for the next day. Her office is very pretty and spacious inside. I had a dress I got for cheap but 2 sizes too big. Tina was very thorough and considerate of my preferences when she was pinning up the fabric to fit my body. She offered suggestions I wouldn't have thought of like cups for my chest. She gives you a quote after the fitting because the price depends on what she has to do and how many layers the dress has, etc. I didn't need the dress anytime soon so I told her to take her time. However, she was able to finish it in two weeks and let me know by text. When I picked it up, I tried my dress on and it looked fantastic and fit like a glove. It was worth every penny. Tina is also very nice and easy to talk to. I definitely recommend her for any tailoring needs, especially weddings. read more

I have gone to Tina twice, and each time has been so amazing. She's done two bridesmaid dresses for me and goes above and beyond each time. Her pricing is extremely fair, and she is so fast. She's finished my dresses within a week each time. I won't ever go anywhere else. read more

Tina is the one to go to for anything! I purchased a men's three piece suit with slim fit pants. I called multiple places in the area and they refused to alter the suit for me. Tina agreed, I took the suit in and she informed me that it would end up being a custom piece. I was on a time crunch and she was extremely accommodating! She called me in for three fitting to make sure that the piece continued to fit me properly. Her attention to details is unmatched and wants to make sure that you look good in what you are wearing! For the work that had to be done on the suit to tailor it to my measurements from a men's suit two sizes too big the price was reasonable. She will help you bring your vision to life! Highly recommend!!! read more

Tina provides pristine focus and attention to detail through the questions she asks about our needs and the way she handles the garments. I made an appointment with her and when we met she got straight to work. I had a suit jacket, dress pants, and a dress shirt to alter. I could tell she wanted me to look my best in the suit as she provided understanding of adjustments to the height of the jacket, tapering of the pants and waist, and dress shirt length matching the jacket. She has reasonable pricing for the services she provides. The end result was an amazing tailored suit! Thanks Tina! read more
