Chyla is YOUR GO TO ARTIST for ANY special events make up and hair needs!…read more I reached out to Chyla 6 days before our wedding (very last minute!) to treat myself & the important women in my life to having our hair & make up done! From the very first phone call, to the many questions I had and the wonderful experience of having her style our hair and do our make up, I was impressed with Chyla's professionalism, warmth and her genuine bubbly personality. She is not only worth EVERY PENNY, Chyla is a joy to work with! I was immediately drawn to Chyla's understanding of our needs, her kindness, passion for what she does; & her clear expectations for the day! She is so proactive, genuine and very responsive with communication. Within hours of connecting, Chyla provided me with a contract, set expectations & a wedding day schedule! She was so very patient when addressing my questions, & some of our last minute changes! On our wedding day, Chyla showed up on time, was so sweet and friendly towards all of us & her highly skilled artistry spoke for itself! We all wanted a softer and more natural look and she executed our vision perfectly! I had never felt so beautiful- polished & put together! The products she used were so light and I felt like I was not wearing any make up at all and received so many compliments! My daughters, best friend, mother and sister in law all were very happy with their hair and make up too! We are all very thankful to have Chyla help us glow & radiate on our special day! Chyla is amazing and we loved how she SPARKLES & adds so much beauty, confidence, creativity, & positive energy to the world! Thank you Chyla for making us look and feel so elegant and beautiful!

I couldn't recommend Chyla more highly for any bride, especially Asian brides who want to feel like…read morethe best version of themselves. From the trial to the wedding day, she was incredibly thoughtful and attentive to feedback. I had specific preferences around how I wanted my makeup and hair to feel light and natural while still showing up well in photos, and she completely nailed it. She listened carefully, made small adjustments based on my input, and the end result was exactly what I hoped for. I looked like myself, just elevated and glowing. She was also amazing with my mom, who can be particular about my makeup and hair. Chyla took the time to talk through my mom's comfort level, test a few options, and make sure she genuinely loved her final look. It made the morning of my wedding feel calm and collaborative, and my mom felt so confident and beautiful. Overall, Chyla was not only talented but also kind, communicative, and professional: the perfect person to have by your side on such an important day.

She's professional, gentle, and makes what could be an uncomfortable service feel completely normal. Beyond that, she's genuinely kind and easy to talk to.

I had a feeling my last visit was a fluke thing. I know the work these ladies do is great. It just sucks that sometimes, our hair can only take so much. After this most recent visit, my hair is looking healthy happy and vibrant. I've been getting so many compliments and I am confident enough to wear my hair down again. I will be back again soon for a touch up, but no bleaching this time...my hair can't take it. My tip? Be smart about what you do to your hair.

I asked for big blowout and realized that bring from the south still has a hold on me haha. I loved it and left feeling great about how it looked. I think I will be back for coloring services. It was very casual and relaxed. The pricing is also super fair for the area.

I was a bridesmaid in a friend's wedding a few weeks ago & doing my own make up was the last thing…read moreI wanted to worry about. A mutual friend told me she knew this girl, Kim (Kiss n' Makeup) who does make up. At first, I was a little worried because we thought Kim might not want to travel so far (she is located in Chicago, the wedding was located out in Elburn) but she totally agreed. Kim was there on time, probably a few mins early, & had everything with her. She did a great job!!! My makeup stayed all afternoon, evening and into the night (through the crying, dancing and drinking). I loved the makeup she applied on my eyes the most. She didn't cake on the foundation or make it look heavy on any of us. And a BONUS***she was so easy to talk to!!! Sometimes getting your make up done can be awkward because you're just sitting there, not knowing what to say. But Kim lightened the mood and was hilarious. I definitely recommend her to anyone who needs their makeup professionally done & doesn't want to worry about what the outcome will look like. She does a fantastic job and asks your opinions throughout your session. Kudos Kim!!!
