    Working with Tara was an absolute delight! From our first email exchange she was professional, kind, and enthusiastic. I hired Tara and her team to do hair for me and my bridal party for my wedding in San Diego in October. I went in for a bridal preview beforehand so we could have a hair trial and Tara put me at ease immediately and helped bring my bridal hair dreams to life! She is a pro at the bridal boho curly look and she has a great attention to detail. Plus she is SO sweet and just a joy to be around! Our wedding day went so smoothly! Tara and Luz arrived on time and got through all 8 of us with time to spare. We were all so happy with how our hair turned out! My hair is normally very fine and tangly so I was worried it would look messy as my wedding night went on, but it stayed up so well and fell beautifully throughout the night. I highly recommend hiring Tara and her team for your bridal hair needs-- you will be SO happy with her and your hair will look gorgeous!!

    I do not think I will ever have the words to describe how grateful I am for Tara and how perfect she made my special day. When I reflect back on my wedding, one of the first thoughts that comes to my head is how blown away I was with my decision to hire Tara. The work she did with my hair and my bridesmaids' hair was absolutely amazing. I had a vision for what I wanted and she executed my vision flawlessly. I received more compliments on my hair than I can count. In addition to her amazing hair magic, Tara is genuinely one of the kindest, most loving, and most fun people to be around. She genuinely feels like a ray of sunshine that illuminates every room she walks into. She goes above and beyond to make sure the getting ready process is stress-free for the bride. Without a single ounce of reservation, I would recommend Tara and her team to any bride. To put into perspective, I am a Los Angeles native whose wedding was in L.A., and despite being surrounded by tons of local hair professionals, I decided to hire Tara who is in located all the way down in San Diego. She is THAT good!!! Trust me, you will not regret going with Irresistible Mess.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Tara. She is as kind as she is talented. From the very beginning, she was communicative and accommodating. When I met her for the first time at my bridal preview for my hair I instantly knew I was in good hands. She made me feel comfortable and really took an interest in who I was as a person. Tara took the vision I had for my hair and used her expertise to elevate it and make it exactly what I wanted, but MORE. I loved my hair so much I didn't need anything changed, and somehow on my wedding day, it was even more stunning. Furthermore, she made each of my bridesmaids feel special and they each looked beautiful. Tara is professional, efficient, detail-oriented, and just so lovely. I got so many compliments on my hair on my wedding day, with some guests saying my hair looked like that of a Disney princess which I think is the highest compliment. Tara was an absolute joy to work with. Thank you, Tara!

    Tara and Jamie were the sweetest ladies I got to work with! I had a trial look months before the wedding and they really listened to what I hoped to achieve on the wedding day. They were so fun to be around and we talked about life like I've known them before. On the day of, they were very professional and made sure everyone was taken care of. The schedule sent to me was followed accordingly and we weren't behind at all. Tara made sure to work with me on the schedule because there were people traveling far so we had to accomplish a different time for them. Jamie worked her magic on my make up, and we built it until it was the perfect shade for me! My makeup complimented my skin, in a way that it didn't take over my face completely. I wanted the natural but bronzy look and she did just that! I really loved the look and it wasn't hard to do a touch up on because it stayed for a long time! For my hair, I had 3 different looks for 3 different outfits and somehow, Tara was able to make those possible for me in a one day event. I loved the look because it was able to enhance my dress in a way I could have never imagined! The best thing about them is that they're great at communicating! That was super important for wedding planning. I can go on and on but I think they did an amazing job overall and really helped me look my best and very pretty on our wedding day!

    Tara is the sweetest and an absolute joy all around! She responds to emails/texts in a flash, punctual, knows what she's doing, and has so much fun doing it. Tara listened to my concerns about hair/makeup for my bridal party, and brought her A-game. She and makeup artist KC nailed the hair and makeup for each woman in my bridal party and our flower girl. They were both arrived early and were absolute bundles of fun and made the morning so enjoyable. They finished everyone's looks with so much time to spare, and everyone looked their best and so beautiful, I was so blown away! The hair and makeup lasted ALL DAY for everyone, even after happy crying, and dancing all night. I would highly recommend Tara for your bridal party!

    Without a doubt, book Tara (and Jamie) for your hair and makeup for your wedding day. Tara and her team did my hair and makeup along with 8 bridesmaids, 2 flower girls, and two mothers and we were all so blown away by their talent, professionalism, and timing of everything. Literally everyone in my bridal party was overly pleased with their hair and makeup and their pricing is incredibly reasonable. 5 stars doesn't even do them justice. Should also add Tara is the absolutely sweetest person to work with.

    I was lucky enough to have both my hair and makeup done by Tara from Irresistible Mess on my wedding day and also for my engagement photos. Not only did she do the most amazing job, better than I could have imagined, but is also one of the most kind, genuine and fun people I have ever met. I loved every bit of working with her and highly recommend her services for you and your wedding day!

    From the start to finish, Tara was a dream to work with. She is sweetest and most loving. I came to her house for a preview and we were having so much fun chit chatting. She changed my perspective that getting your hair done could be fun, special, and something to look forward to on your wedding day. Although I could not find photos of the style exactly how I wanted, she was still able to bring my vision to life. On the day of, her work was incredible and flawless. She made me feel beautiful and lovely. I am so grateful to have her being a part of my special day. Thank you Tara! Wishing your family the best and your daughter will grow up to be a beautiful person as you are.

    Tara was absolutely amazing! Great communication, on time, and loved having her positive energy the morning of the wedding, and my hair looked gorgeous and stayed ALL NIGHT!!

    Tara is THE person you want helping you get ready on your big day. Not only is she the bomb at hair, her joyful personality is contagious! She LOVES weddings and all things bridal. I was instantly comfortable with her and she made me even more excited for my wedding with her bubbly personality and love for what she does. Everyone in my wedding LOVED her immediately and obviously so did I! From the trial to the big day, she was extra communicative and made sure I got exactly what I wanted. I felt amazing at my wedding and I would choose Tara over and over again.

    Tara & Jamie were absolute jewels in the crown of my daughter's wedding. Their sweet and peaceful manner, encouragement and kind gentle spirits just added to our experience getting hair and makeup done for our big event. We couldn't be happier with these ladies and the talent they have in designing and creating different hairstyles for our 6 girls and 2 moms who had the honor of Tara & Jamie being part of our special day. Thank you ladies! We love you!

    Bridal wedding day hair

    I would highly recommend Irresistible Mess to anyone looking for a bridal stylist! I booked Tara for myself, three moms and four bridesmaids for my wedding in San Marcos. She did an AMAZING job with everyone and genuinely cared about making sure everyone was 100% satisfied with their hair. Everyone wanted a different style and she completely nailed it...everyone looked so beautiful! I received so many compliments, and it still looked perfect by the end of the night! Not to mention, Tara is just the sweetest and she really helped me stay calm during the day while getting ready. From the first day I met Tara, I knew she was the stylist for me and she would be the perfect person to have as part of my wedding day. I highly recommend this lovely, talented lady for any and every bride!!!

    Tara was my hair stylist on my wedding in August last year and I can't say enough good things about her as a person and her incredible work! She is absolute magic and can do all these amazing things with your hair. When I first did my trial with her, I knew I found the perfect team to handle all the glam for my big day! She is so sweet and listens to your wants and needs. She's very open to changes and doesn't impose her own ideas on you. She truly makes you the priority and ensures that you look your best on your big day. This review is long overdue but just want everyone to know to make sure to have her as your hair stylist on your big day because you will not be disappointed! I am so grateful for what she did for me and cannot thank her enough!

I wanted the ombré bayalage but was worried that the black was on too thick and for too long. Lynn wasn't sure either but we tested my hair and it was strong enough to withhold the chemicals, she didn't want to ruin my hair. I really appreciated that since most hair stylists would fry your hair and take your money and not care. Lynn told me I have thick and beautiful hair, so she didn't want to ruin it with chemicals if my hair wasn't strong enough to manage it. Hours later, my hair came out perfectly the caramel colors I wanted and the ombré was perfect. I'm thrilled with the results and I'll be back for Lynn to help me manage this hair.
