JoAnn saved my life for my engagement shoot in so many ways. I am not from the area but was getting engagement photos done in Riverside at the Mission Inn. Not having my typical go to salons I ventured out to find stylists- one to do both makeup and hair (which seems harder than I thought it would be?) I had originally booked another artists for both who canceled on me 2 days before my day and I was in a horrible panic- that's when I found JoAnn. JoAnn was a godsend- timely, organized, and so professional. She was very direct on asking what I wanted and giving a quote immediately. I signed the contract, paid for the service, and she scheduled an appointment through FT to go over looks/ expectations in more details. Speaking to her you can tell she knows what she's been doing, has been doing it for 20+ years, and is attentive to details. I was so excited to work with her. She is the type A, organized and reliable person I thought she would be from this first interaction. On the day of she did a fantastic job. My hair and makeup looked gorgeous. She always checked in and made sure I was okay or if I thought something needed to change. She really took her time to make sure we were happy with the results. As far as the vibe. First off the salon is adorable, just you and her in a clean, private space- allows for a calm getting ready experience. She is so personable and sweet- we gabbed the whole time. A unique thing about JoAnn that I don't see in many stylists is her organizations (sending directions/ address the day before, with a pre meeting) and how she cares for her clients. She told me about my venue (Mission In) which is 2 minutes away from her- made sure I was aware of parking so I don't get a ticket and just gave me general day of and wedding day advice. I also had a tan malfunction and she was so sweet to fix it through airbrushing. I cannot recommend Jo Ann enough. It is palpable the difference with someone who takes their time, is organized, and truly cares. read more

I had the pleasure of having a 1 on 1 class with this beautiful soul. It was so wonderful and I learned so much. I didn't think that I would be able to do any type of make up, I have tried but it has never worked out for me. I feel more confident now. I'm going to continue to practice as it's a lot to learn. Jo Ann was so patient, kind and her knowledge of make up and skin care is amazing. I will forever be grateful for you! Thank you so very much Jo Ann. read more

Jo Ann is an amazing human being! I was in a situation where I was informed last minute that I would need to look for my own hair/make-up for my Brother's wedding so I reached out to Jo Ann and some others, but she was the quickest to respond and understood the situation perfectly and was able to calm my nerves. She made me feel comfortable and that things could work out. It was the optimism I needed in the moment. I even had to make last minute changes to everything that I originally booked, but she was very understanding. On the day of, she was super prompt and was able to do my hair/make-up quickly. I was the first one ready for the wedding with her help. I am a person who gets camera shy and isn't used to wearing make-up on a regular basis, but absolutely loved the make-up look she created. It felt light and Jo Ann was so helpful in making me feel comfortable and beautiful. Everybody commented on how amazing the look I had was and it made me feel better inside, even with all the anxiety leading up to the event. Jo Ann is literally an angel and I am so thankful I got her services. She is definitely my go-to for future events! read more

Jo Ann Salgado - Makeup Artists Near Me - Riverside, California

I booked Jo Ann as my hair stylist/make up artist for my wedding, and I couldn't have made a better decision. Of all my vendors, she was one of the best. I'm huge on communication, and she always stayed in quick and professional contact with me. I also don't know much when it comes to make up, and she really helped me create such a beautiful look when I never was sure just what would look good on me. Her, as well as her team, really care for you. I ended up changing my mind with what look I wanted on my wedding day, and she never took it personal...she just rolled with it and changed my look come wedding day. Every product she uses is clean and high quality. You can tell she takes pride in her business, so just know you're in good hands. Lastly, Jo Ann is fun and makes you feel so comfortable. She's easy going and a great gal to spend time with as you prepare for your special day. read more

I don't even know where to start with this review...Jo Ann is simply a makeup magician! My hair and makeup was absolutely gorgeous. I contacted Jo Ann very last minute to check for availability and she was so kind to take me on a Saturday in the middle of the day so that I can be ready for my event on time. The booking process was smooth and she was so quick in responding to my messages. I especially liked the tip sheet she sent so that our appointment would go off without a hitch.On the day of my appointment there were some last minute changes and I needed to move my timing around and she was extremely accommodating to that as well. Now let's talk about the hair and makeup session. Her studio is so adorable and inviting. It felt less like I was having services done and more like I was hanging out with a girlfriend getting ready. She understood the look I was going for and achieved it with perfection...and about 15 minutes earlier than expected which i truly appreciate because it gave me just that few extra minutes I needed to get to my event on time. I cannot say enough amazing things about Jo Ann...thank you sooooo much! read more

I found Jo Ann on Instagram when I was looking for a makeup artist in the Riverside area. Right from the moment I messaged to her the actual event, Jo Ann was a complete Rockstar and helped me look my absolute best. She did a terrific job of making me look and feel pretty without making me look made up. Compliments kept pouring in the entire day and the entire credit goes to her. I would recommend Jo Ann to anyone that is looking for hair and makeup. Trust me, you will be in great hands. She is the best. I will definitely book her for all my upcoming events. read more

I was hesitant to book make up and hair for my daughter's quinceañera considering the COVID precautions we need to be taking. Jo Ann had a very clean studio. She sanitized and cleaned her tools and equipment rice. She had us wear a special face shield during our makeup, up until putting in the lipstick. Everyone wore masks during hair. She was extremely professional from the very start to finish. From the booking, payment, appointment reminders, covid survey, etc. I'm very particular and I did my research and I'm really happy we choose Jo Ann Salgado. She took care of our parking, played nice music, made up feel relaxed and beautiful from the moment we walked into her studio. Bathroom was very clean. And then we had alone time to take pictures without our masks. Thanks a million Jo Ann for making us highlight our natural beauty read more

I hardly wear any makeup! When I lost all hope for a makeup artist I found JoAnn Salgado. Her amazing portfolio caught my attention because she had different ethnicity's. I was even more ecstatic on the reasonable price she charges. During my consultation I was nervous because it's impossible to work magic on my face and hair. Seeing her work was like an artist painting on canvas, you can tell she is very passionate in what she does. At the end of the consultation, I was speechless on my hair and makeup! I just kept staring in the mirror on how beautiful I looked and you can see my Asian eyes when I smile. On the day of the wedding, she came on time, she was organized, and professional. Thank you JoAnn for working your wonderful magic and making me feel beautiful! -- Jason & Jamie Shaffer read more

Jo Ann Salgado - Look no further , Jo Anne is amazing !! You won't regret choosing her for your special day . - Makeup Artists Near Me - Riverside, California

Jo Ann is a must book! A week before a family wedding, I contacted Jo Ann for hair & makeup services. She was extremely professional and kind. Jo Ann was the only person who responded to my "Yelp request for a quote/contact". Before meeting, we only communicate via email. At first, I was a bit skeptical about this way of communication, but after reading all of her positive Yelp reviews and reviewing her business website, I trusted her. Jo Ann emailed me a questionnaire and contract right after. I appreciated the contract, because it provided proof that both parties (her & I) were in agreement of services. The day before services, Jo Ann emailed me a reminder of our appointment and provided clear instructions to her studio. Jo Ann was lovely to meet, her studio is spotless! In a way, you feel like a model in her studio. Jo Ann asked me what I was looking for and we bounced some ideas of what I wanted. In the end, my hair and makeup came out fabulous. I received many compliments and the photos show her talent. Thank you Jo Ann!!! I will definitely come to you for any future special events. read more

Omg where do I even begin??!!! I love Jo Ann!!!!! She's amazing at what she does and she's such an approachable person! I was freaking out not having someone do my hair and makeup for my friends wedding since I was a bridesmaid and everyone else was going to do their own, but I can't do that lol not that talented. Luckily Jo Ann was available to do my hair and makeup this past Sunday! So relieved! Let's be honest, lol I'm Asian and I gotta be honest, I was a bit nervous about my makeup done cuz I've never actually had anyone that did a decent job on my eyes lol. We even joked about this too! :) I had so much fun while getting my hair and makeup done while just chatting away. She really took her time in everything! I told her my problems that I'm super oily and she addressed the problem and solved it easily! Here comes the eye makeup - I wanted to have a smoky eye look but the bridesmaid dress was light pink. So we decided to go with brown eye shadows. And OMG!!!!!! My eyes looked amaze-balls!!!!! Literally my hair was gorgeous, my face was even more gorgeous!!!! The airbrush in the end made me look so good! Hahahahha I kept on saying "OMG" the whole time I was there! And at the wedding I cried, sweated, but the makeup didn't come off not even one bit! I looked really natural and didn't feel like I had a lot of makeup on. And my face wasn't caked. I got so many compliments from everyone there about my hair and my makeup I was loving it! I told Jo Ann that I'm for sure booking her for my wedding (which is in six years) lol and she better still be doing makeup :) I am definitely recommending her to everyone that needs a makeup and hair stylist for their special day! read more

As a professional photographer I have worked with Jo Ann for about 6 years. I refer her to all my clients as she is a truly skilled artist.

I have NEVER had one complaint from any of my clients that she has worked on - they actually rave about her! If you are in search of someone who has the experience, knowledge, reliability, and artistic eye then look no further.

I booked with Jo Ann and her hair partner for my wedding. The process for getting a quote was very professional. She has a process for requesting services, but the quote comes back within a timely manner. There is a contract you must agree to for services and then you pay 50% to book for your preview/trial. She was very accommodating of my tight schedule to get my trial in at a time that worked for me. She asked me what I was looking for and gave me a look based on my Pinterest pictures for my trial. I did mention before my preview that I was very light in complexion and needed a lot of coverage and she wasn't able to get me to the super high level of coverage I needed and she didn't have my shade of makeup but she was totally willing to use my makeup and application products on my big day at my request. My makeup came out perfectly on my wedding day even with her and the hair partner taking care of me at the same time. I absolutely loved it and have never felt prettier! read more
