I booked what I believed was a 3:00 PM appointment at this blow dry bar while traveling to Napa…read morefrom the East Coast. Unfortunately, because of a time zone issue in their booking system, the appointment was apparently entered as 12:00 PM instead. I use Square regularly in NYC and have never experienced this kind of confusion before. What made the situation especially frustrating was the complete lack of accommodation or understanding when I arrived. I was simply told the issue was noted somewhere on the website, but if this is a known problem, it should be made extremely clear and impossible to miss -- especially for out-of-town clients visiting Napa. They also stated they called me around noon, but I never received a phone call or missed call notification. The experience felt disappointing and unprofessional from start to finish. Napa is known for hospitality and customer service, and sadly this business did not reflect that at all. I hope they improve both their booking communication and their willingness to work with customers when issues like this happen.

I have very curly hair and a lot of it and it takes a truly skilled stylist to be able to handle it and Kassandra did the most amazing job. I showed Carly a picture of my makeup inspiration and she executed my vision perfectly. I was so happy leaving the salon and excited for the special event I was attending that evening. The salon is cute, modern, clean and overall just a fun environment to be in. Even the stylists that weren't doing my services were chatting with me and were super sweet and friendly. Thank you Carly and Kassandra for the most amazing experience, you two are amazing at what you do!

Believe me, you want to be surrounded with calm and bright people on your wedding day. :) Despite the record breaking heat, all our guests kept commenting on how cool and refreshed we all looked. And most of us kept our wedding curls for our relaxing Sunday by the pool!

A huge thank you to Jocelyn at Bella Bridal Napa Valley for helping on such short notice…read more  I was deep in decision paralysis and Jocelyn and her team came highly recommended. A consummate professional she focused on quickly booking an artist that could help with such short notice (2 weeks!). The contract and website were easy to navigate.  I worked with Yajaira who was lovely, hilarious, and creative. After checking out my inspo photos and getting to know me. We decided on a classic, glam, and down hairdo with waves as it fit my relaxed summer wedding vibe (and my undercut is still growing in). My hair was easy to manage, looked spectacular and stayed in place well into the night. Absolutely great service, I've attached a picture and may add more when the final portraits come in.  Thank you so much for helping me when I felt so out of my depth and for making the morning of my wedding reception go so smoothly.

I left not only with a polished daytime look that can easily transition into evening, but also with thoughtful advice on skincare, diet, gut health--and a much-needed reminder to drink more water (ugh) . It was a genuinely lovely way to spend the afternoon. The booking experience was smooth, and Christina was fun, patient, and focused on working with the makeup and skincare I already own. There was no pressure to buy anything, though she did recommend a few products I'm excited to explore once I finish what I have.
