I really enjoyed working with Jennifer for my wedding, and what initially drew me to her was her ability to bring out a person's natural beauty instead of masking it with makeup. In my research of other makeup artists, I noticed that Jennifer had a keen eye for color matching foundation to a person's skin tone and was very observant when it came to undertones across different ethnicities. I found that her color matching for me was absolutely perfect and completely undetectable. She is also extremely receptive to feedback if you would like to change anything about your makeup or hair, and she is truly a master of her art. I have oily skin and typically need to blot every 2-3 hours, so I was honestly shocked by how long my makeup lasted. The way Jennifer set my face allowed my makeup to last 15+ hours with minimal oil coming through at all. I received compliments throughout the entire night that my makeup didn't look heavy and that I still looked like myself. I highly recommend Jennifer for your makeup and hair needs! read more

I absolutely loved working with Chi Hang/JP Charming. Her and the team played such a huge role in making my wedding day the best ever. I had heard about her through mutual friends and community. I'm really glad that I got to work with her for my wedding. She is dedicated to her craft and really talented. I am always nervous about working with others who may not be as well versed in my Asian facial structure and hair, but I did not have to worry at all with JP Charming! I did book a trial with Chi Hang so that I could get a feel of what I liked and would want on my special day. I was able to match this up with my engagement photoshoot. Chi Hang talked me through the whole process of my hair and make up. She also asked me a lot of questions to see what I liked and what I wanted to aim for. This was helpful as she was building my profile for my wedding day. I was torn between a half-up, half-down and a low bun. Turns out, I can have both! On the wedding day, the base would be half-up, half-down and then turned into a low bun. The low bun would be for the ceremony and then turn into a half-up, half-down for the reception by taking out some bobby pins! On the wedding day, Chi Hang and her team were right on time and ready to go at 6:00 AM! I absolutely loved the two gals she brought with her: Pari and Lucy. My sister is usually so quiet, shy, and not super into doing hair and makeup. But I could hear her laughing and chit chatting away. I know my girls felt at ease working with Chi Hang, Pari, and Lucy. They really take into consideration what their clients want and make it happen! My mom was very impressed and whew, it can be hard to impress her. The whole process was very well organized and timely. She had sent me a spreadsheet of the breakdowns of who does what and what at time. We were on schedule, which was a relief to me because I have been a part of a wedding party where one of the bridesmaids was missing from the tea ceremony due to the makeup artist miscalculating timing. My wedding was the end of August so it was still very hot out! However, my hair and makeup stayed great throughout the whole day. She gave me a little kit to help touch up any pieces. It was such a sweet touch. I'm so grateful that I went with JP Charming for my wedding! She is so kind and really wants to know what you like. It makes it easier for people like me who sometimes have a hard time speaking my thoughts. Thank you for everything, Chi Hang! If you're looking for a A+++ team, look no further than JP Charming! read more

Jennifer was absolutely wonderful to work with for my wedding hair and makeup! I typically don't wear makeup and don't know much about makeup products, so I knew I wanted a natural, lighter look that still felt special. During my bridal trial, Jennifer walked me through each step of the process, explaining what she was doing and which products she was using. She was incredibly attentive to what I liked and didn't like, and adjusted everything accordingly. I left the trial reassure that I found the right hair and makeup artist for my wedding day. Even after the trial, I made a few additional notes about changes I wanted for the big day, and Jennifer made sure every detail was incorporated. On the wedding day, Jennifer and her team arrived promptly and finished hair and makeup for me, the groom, 2 moms, and 4 bridesmaids right on schedule. They even helped with a few touch-ups after we had a quick lunch! Everyone looked incredible all day. Jennifer also provided a small makeup kit, which definitely came in handy since I cried so much throughout the day. I'm so grateful to Jennifer and her team for helping us all feel our best! read more

I am so beyond impressed with Jennifer and her team and cannot recommend her enough!! Jennifer is easily one of the most professional, passionate, thorough, and dependable people that I've had the pleasure of meeting. From day 1 with randomly stumbling upon her portfolio and me reaching out, to even after the wedding, she has been extremely responsive, helpful, and detailed. I have never gotten full glam before and didn't know what to expect, but was already blown away during the trial session, which I absolutely recommend. She goes step by step and truly cares about making you feel comfortable in your own skin and is patient with every step, as she explains why each part of the process is important. The way she explains things makes you feel confident too because you can tell she is such a professional and has really studied hair & make up, even continuously immersing herself in continued education to further her craft. I've honestly never felt so beautiful after leaving the trial run and it only made me way more excited for the actual day. For our ceremony, it was an early one in La Jolla, and with 4 girls (including myself), Jennifer and her assistant needed to arrive to our nearby hotel around 3:45 AM. Even at such an early hour, she arrived punctual and with grace, and had a beautiful, legitimate set-up, which made the setting enjoyable and comfortable. Her and her assistant did me, my mom, my mother in law, and my sister in law's make-up and hair, and it was extremely organized and we managed to all finish perfectly on time, and felt so energized for the special day after she made us feel like goddesses! From our morning ceremony to night time reception, all of our hair and makeup stayed put, and let's just say it was even difficult to have to part ways and have to remove my hair and make up at the end of the night! For anyone looking around for the perfect hair and makeup artist, LOOK NO FURTHER!!! I love Jennifer and her team so much and she is the right choice. She's also the most loving person, which only makes the experience better. Thanks for everything and we appreciate you so much! read more

Kerry and Pari were absolutely amazing to work with! They both did such a wonderful job and kept everything running smoothly and efficiently with our timeline, which made the morning feel calm and stress-free. Kerry was so sweet and easy to talk to, she immediately understood the vision for my wedding day look and brought it to life perfectly. Pari was just as incredible, really taking the time to listen to each of my girls' preferences and executing makeup that was not only beautiful, but lasted all night. A special shoutout, my mother-in-law received so many compliments on her hair and makeup, people were saying she looked like a famous actress! LOL We couldn't have asked for a better team and are so grateful for how confident and beautiful they made everyone feel!! read more

It's been three months since my wedding, and I still can't stop thinking about how grateful I am for Chi Jennifer. She went above and beyond to make me feel like the best version of myself and I can't thank her enough. Chi Jennifer is truly a master of her craft and one of the kindest, most patient people I've ever met. From the very beginning, she took the time to really listen to my preferences and understand the look I was going for. She explained every step of her process and why she chose certain techniques and products for my face, which made me feel completely comfortable and confident in her hands. She did my makeup for my Vietnamese tea ceremony a year ago, so I already knew how talented and trustworthy she was. For my wedding day, she truly went above and beyond. She was so organized and punctual, which helped the morning run smoothly. She made me feel calm, beautiful, and cared for, like I was spending time with an older sister. Her warmth and wisdom really put me at ease during such a special day. The makeup trial we did beforehand was incredibly helpful too as she listened to my feedback, made thoughtful adjustments, and made sure I was completely happy with the final look. Thanks to her, I felt absolutely radiant on my wedding day. Chi Jennifer is not only an amazing artist but also a genuinely lovely person to spend time with. I'm so grateful for her talent, kindness, and professionalism and I would recommend her to any bride without hesitation! read more

We had such a great experience with Jennifer's team! From the start, they were professional, kind, and incredibly easy to work with. They showed up right on time and came fully prepared--even bringing their own lighting since they knew the bridal suite was dim. That was so helpful!! I also did a trial with Jennifer a few months before my wedding, and there were a couple of things I wanted to change. She was super open to feedback and adjusted everything perfectly. I loved how my hair and makeup turned out and loved how it lasted all night. My bridesmaids were also very happy with how theirs turned out as well. Pricing was also super reasonable compared to others. I would 100% recommend Jennifer's team! read more

Jennifer did makeup and hair for my mom and me for my wedding and did an amazing job for both of us. She arrived early, had all the supplies she needed, and clearly knew what she was doing. Her expertise showed in how thorough she was and the advice she gave for how to keep the veil in, how to touch up with the kit she provided, and adding the extensions. She did a perfect job of making my makeup look natural and sweet without me even describing how I wanted it to look. She could tell from my personality what I wanted and made it happen. Though it was a warm summer day, the makeup and hair lasted all day -- which was great because I didn't have time to touch up at all! Overall, I strongly recommend Jennifer for bridal makeup if you want someone who will bring out the best of who you are! read more

Jennifer and her team were amazing!! My girls and I typically don't put on makeup and her team did a fantastic job making sure everyone glowed in their natural-looking makeup. From the beginning to the end, I knew exactly what to expect and the level of professionalism was outstanding. Jennifer is so passionate about what she does and she is so so talented. I would also highly recommend that you book the hair trial because we were able to try different hairstyles, and with her expert recommendations, we found a look that worked well with all of my wedding outfits. I am looking back at all the wedding photos and I am so glad I trusted Jennifer for my big day. She is so so kind and truly a gem and I highly recommend her for your wedding hair and makeup! read more

Jennifer and her team were amazing! Some of my bridesmaids, my mom and I had pretty bad dark under eyes from lack of sleep, but we looked so awake and refreshed after the makeup. I did a makeup trial with Jennifer and showed her a few inspo pictures. She examined them with me and explained what we were seeing and how we could tweak it to suit my face more. I really liked how it turned out, but for the next two weeks I was looking back on the makeup trial photos and found some things I wanted to change. When it came time to the wedding, Jennifer was very receptive to feedback and adjusted everything that I wanted like less contour on my nose, lighter on my brows, the color of my blush, etc. and it turned out even better than the trial! For my mom, Jennifer actually did her makeup 6-7 years ago for my brothers wedding and had a picture of it as well. My mom said what she liked and what she didn't like about the makeup back then and again jennifer was so receptive to feedback. When Jennifer was doing her hair, I thought it was already high, but my mom said higher and Jennifer delivered. My mom was very happy with how everything looked this time ! My makeup and hair survived sweat and tears ! I highly recommend Jennifer and her team! Tip: don't be afraid of speaking up on things you don't like or want to change because Jennifer was so nice and understanding and the little changes she did, made such a difference! read more

Jenn & her team were great on my wedding day! My wedding was on 9/26/25 and my ceremony was at 1pm so we started bright and early and they came right on time! They were very efficient with their time and continued to ask my mom, in laws and bridesmaids about how they wanted their hair & makeup to look to make sure it's what they wanted. Jenn also brought a calm and exciting energy the morning of when getting ready which set the vibe for rest of the day and helped me calm down from all the nerves I was feeling!! I did my trial with Jenn back in March and I would highly recommend it! It was a few hours but it was worth it to know exactly how I wanted my hair and makeup to look on my wedding day! I also used my trial make up for my engagement shoot photos (life hack! lol) My makeup lasted all day long and I got complimented on my hair and makeup during my wedding day about the look of the makeup and how long it lasted! I loved working with Jenn! Thank you so much for making me feel beautiful Jenn!! read more

Booked Jennifer for wedding hair and makeup and as my coordinator, and she was so great! Everything went smoothly and she truly makes you feel like you are the only person she's working with. I continue to hear glowing reviews on how enjoyable and smoothly my wedding ran and it is definitely thanks to Jennifer and her team who helped to manage the timeline for me! Hair and makeup lasted all day long, it was so helpful to have Jennifer with me to retouch my makeup, especially after crying after my vows! I was stressing out so much the week of the wedding due to last minute external factors and she really helped to calm me down and keep from stressing out too much Don't wait to book Jennifer and her team! She was the first person I called up right when I signed my venue!! read more

I don't even know where to begin--Jennifer was absolutely phenomenal! Not only did she do my makeup for the big day (and made me feel so confident and beautiful), but she also took on the role of my day-of coordinator, and I truly don't know how I would have managed without her. As a makeup artist, Jennifer is insanely talented. She listened to exactly what I wanted--natural, elegant, and timeless--and delivered beyond my expectations. My makeup lasted all day and night, even through all the happy tears and dancing! But what really sets Jennifer apart is her calming, supportive presence. As a day-of coordinator, she kept everything running smoothly behind the scenes, communicated effortlessly with vendors, handled last-minute hiccups with grace, and made sure I could focus on enjoying every moment. Jennifer is organized, kind, and truly passionate about what she does. She brought so much joy and calm to our wedding day, and I'm endlessly thankful to have had her by my side. If you're lucky enough to book her--do it. She's one of a kind! read more

I have nothing but absolutely good things to say about Jennifer and her team! I first met Jennifer when she did hair and makeup for my sister's wedding. She was incredible to work with. She really took the time to listen and make us feel comfortable and confident in our looks. I was very impressed. So naturally, I ended up asking her to be my HMUA for my wedding! I did have trials with other HMUA and none were as good a Jennifer! On my wedding day, she made magic happen! She did my husbands hair and make up and wow did he look incredible! We were so happy to have gotten his hair and make up done. Jennifer took her time with my makeup and made all the adjustments from my trial with her. I'd say the day of makeup was just stunning. Zahraa is a magician with hair! She's fast and everyone's hair was just flawless! I have no complaints with Jennifer and her team. She was super responsive and very easy to communicate with. She does more than make beauty happen. She really made me feel like a princess and made the start of my wedding day magical! read more

I decided to get my makeup done for a 1-year anniversary party and trusted that it would go well because of all the lovely pictures of the work I've seen - no regrets! I didn't have a whole lot of specifics, trusted the process, and had a lovely experience! Lots of compliments, makeup and hair were perfect throughout the night for an indoor-outdoor party. read more

I'm so happy I booked Jennifer (Hang) and her team for my wedding day. I truly cannot recommend her enough. On the morning of the wedding, Jennifer and her team arrived early, came prepared, and completed hair and makeup for me, my three bridesmaids, the MOG, and the MOB right on time. She took my feedback from the trial and executed it flawlessly. The makeup lasted through the night without any touch-ups needed, and the hair curls stayed intact all night. Jennifer went above and beyond on my wedding day. She took the time to listen to my preferences and is one of the most professional and talented artists I've had the pleasure of working with. She made me feel calm and cared for, and she explained every step of her process. Thank you so much for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day! I felt absolutely radiant, and we received so many compliments from our guests. I truly can't thank you enough. I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to any bride looking for a talented and highly professional hair and makeup artist. read more

Jennifer was so amazing to work with. I chose not to do a trial, but she explained every step of the makeup and checked in with me constantly to make adjustments along the way. She picked up the overall vibe of my look immediately and nailed the natural bridal look I wanted -- truly a great artist. She and Zahraa graciously squeezed in one of the bridal party girls for last minute hair and makeup too. My makeup lasted so well, but of course there were tears, and Jennifer called me to walk me through touching it up myself, which was so helpful. The only thing I would've changed was to have her do my bridal hair as well. Overall, the bridal party looked radiant all day, and I highly recommend Jennifer and her team. Also, we had a private first look and vow exchange, which only the photographer was present for, and Jennifer was able to capture a video of it on her way out! Such a sweet gesture, and now we have that video clip for our memories :) read more

Jennifer is so amazing! I went to her before a photo shoot on the beach. She constantly asked me for my preferences, knew my skin type just by looking at it, and executed flawlessly. She made me feel so comfortable and at ease. It was such a relaxing experience. She is also so well informed on different styles and preferences, which made me feel so confident that she can literally do anything! Thank you Jennifer, for making me feel so beautiful on a day I was so nervous about!! read more

It was a pleasure to work with Jennifer and her team! I booked Jennifer and her team for me, my mother, and my mother in law but in the end only two of us were able to get our makeup done. Jennifer was easygoing and accommodated to our needs, which I appreciated. First I had a trial at Jennifer's studio. Jennifer was meticulous and detail-oriented with my makeup, showing me the products that she was using and explaining how she was using them. She adjusted my eyeshadow to the colors that I wanted and her teammate Pari slayed my hair with a half up and half down look. The makeup stayed on all day but I was a little oily and gave that feedback to Jennifer. She put that in my file and changed up my makeup for the final look! On the day of, Jennifer came bright and early in the morning to do my makeup, which I appreciated because I had to be done by 8:30 AM. Jennifer was patient with my mom, who rarely ever does makeup and guided her through the makeup process. My mom looked so beautiful after the makeup was done! My makeup was improved and I barely had to oil blot throughout the day. I got a lot of compliments throughout the day. I also had an after party afterwards so my makeup stayed in place 8:30 AM - 2 AM the next day. Props to Jennifer and her team for being so amazing on my wedding day. I would recommend her to anyone who needs their makeup done by a professional and highly skilled makeup artist. read more

This is a super overdue review! Lucy, a principal artist at JP Charming Beauty, and Jennifer helped me, the MOB, and the MOG in June 2024. The makeup artist I was originally in contact with bailed on me last minute, and I was desperate to find someone else. Jennifer empathized with my situation and, although she was already booked for another wedding that day, she kindly sent Lucy my way. Lucy was just above and beyond. She REALLY listened to me and executed exactly what I wanted. I'm Korean and wanted a very natural yet polished look -- and she absolutely nailed it. All of my Korean family, who are very picky about makeup, said it was perfect on the day of my wedding. The MOB and MOG also looked fabulous. We added a hair service for the MOG the day before, which put Lucy under a bit of a time crunch (I'm so sorry!), but she calmly delivered amazing results in a stressful environment. The outcome was phenomenal. I truly recommend this business for wedding makeup and hair! read more

From the trial going into the actual wedding day she was extremely receptive to my nit picks and feedback. Even after the wedding Jennifer was still brainstorming on how to improve, the sign of a dedicated artist! read more

As I celebrate my third wedding anniversary, I can't help but fantasize about one thing... if only I had booked JP Charming Beauty for my entire wedding! I had the pleasure of working with Hang and her team for my Đám Hỏi Ceremony in August 2021, and let's just say--they know how to handle a demanding situation (and trust me, my family brought the heat). But Hang? She kept it cool, calm, and effortlessly flawless, making sure everything was just right. Here's the thing--Hang caters to all brides, but she specializes in Vietnamese weddings and ceremonies, which means she doesn't just make you look good, she makes sure you feel like a dream while honoring the traditions that matter most. That kind of expertise? Sexy. Looking back, I can't help but think... why didn't I let her take care of everything--makeup, setup, photography? She's the kind of jack-of-all-trades that you just want more of. If I could redo my wedding, I'd make sure Hang had her hands all over it. Maybe for my vow renewal? Now that's a thought. So if you're planning a wedding, let me give you a little pillow talk of wisdom--book JP Charming Beauty. Because when it comes to looking and feeling good on your big day, why settle for anything less than breathtaking? read more

This is an overdue review for JP Charming Beauty and the amazing team. Wedding planning is stressful, so, planning a destination wedding would be even worse and ten times the stress, right? All I can say is, Jen and her team made everything so EFFORTLESSLY EASY AND SMOOTH. I wouldn't have survived my wedding day without her! I am so lucky to have found Jennifer. I have so many wonderful things to say about her. First thing I want to mention is, I cannot stress enough how important a make-up trial is! This is how you get to know each other and bond with your make-up artist before your big day. Before the trial, I saved all the inspiration looks and hair-do I wanted for my wedding day. Jen spent over 3 hours discussing the looks I wanted, the hair extension I would need, and ways to cover my chest port that I have for my IV chemo infusion. My engagement photoshoot looked absolutely amazing since we did it after my trial with Jen! The day before my wedding day, I communicated with Jen and told her parking would be difficult around my Airbnb. And, we were going to be on a very tight schedule because our western style ceremony would be RIGHT AFTER the Chinese tea ceremony. Guess what? On my wedding day, Jen and her team showed up HALF AN HOUR EARLY. I was in awe when I opened the door in my pajamas and messy hair at 7 am. SHE WAS MORE READY THAN THE BRIDE HERSELF!!!!! She and her team were so punctual and professional. My mother-in-law and bridesmaids, EVERYONE loved their looks and hair. My maid-of-honor, who just had her wedding a few months before mine, PREFERRED HER HAIR AND LOOKS from Jen and her team over her wedding day look. The bride (me) cried so much during the wedding ceremony, and danced her heart out during the reception. My hair and make-up stayed SO WELL. Jen gave me a small refill for lip gloss and also touch up powder to make sure everything looked ok. By the end of the night, I still looked GREAT. It's been 3 months since my wedding day, and I still can't believe how lucky I was to have found Jennifer. She and her team had contributed so much, and I am so happy she was a part of the most memorable day in my life. :) THANK YOU read more

I was introduced to Jennifer through my cousin-in-law, who had hired her and her team for her own wedding in November 2024. I was so impressed by how natural and stunning my cousin-in-law's makeup looked, and I knew right away that I wanted to hire Jennifer for my big day. I reached out to Jennifer about 5 weeks before my wedding, which felt like cutting it super close. I was a bit embarrassed to reach out so late, but I'm so glad my cousin-in-law encouraged me to contact her. Initially, Jennifer wasn't available, as she already had a full schedule of bridal trials, but she was incredibly accommodating. She made it work, and I'm so grateful she did! A week before the event, I sent her inspiration pictures for the Hollywood waves hairstyle I wanted. She was very honest, telling me that I'd need a certain hair length and thickness for the look to work, but she assured me she would give it a try. On the day of the wedding, I stopped by Jennifer's studio, and she immediately got to work, doing a test curl to ensure my hair could hold the style. The entire time, we had such a great conversation, and I learned so much about her. I have so much respect for Jennifer as a busy mom of two and a self-made entrepreneur--she's such a down-to-earth, genuine person. When it came time for makeup, Jennifer was just as accommodating and reassuring, making sure to create a natural glam look, since I'm not someone who typically wears makeup. I honestly felt like a beauty queen, and I received so many compliments from my friends and family. Thank you, Jennifer, for making me feel beautiful inside and out on my wedding day. You truly made my experience unforgettable! read more

She made my makeup look flawless and I was no longer concerned about my acne. Thank you Jennifer!

Jennifer did my hair/makeup for my tea ceremony and wedding. She was amazing and she explained everything in such detail that showed she is truly an expert at her work and loves what she does. As someone who does not use makeup often, I learned so much from her and she made me feel very comfortable during our appointments. She asks a lot of questions to ensure she is tailoring her services specifically to your individual needs, which I greatly appreciate. She is very organized and prepped makeup emergency touch up kits for my wedding day. One of my friends recommended Jennifer to me, and I would happily recommend her to others as well!! read more

Omg this is a long overdue review on Jennifer and her team who did my wedding day hair and make up (for me and my 2 MOH's) back in September 2024. TLDR: the most amazing experience! I currently work out of state and came home to California for my wedding. I found her through Instagram and really loved her portfolio. It was not easy planning a wedding from a different state and time zone but we corresponded through e-mail to work out all the logistics easily and with great communication. Since we didn't get to do a trial run, she made sure to call me before to discuss through what kind of look I was going for and what would and wouldn't work with my fine, flat Asian hair that doesn't hold curls well. It was reassuring that we were talking things through to make sure we were on the same page. Day of, she hosted us in her studio which was beautifully decorated (nice for wedding get-ready photos) and was conveniently close to the church. She took her time in doing every step in my hair and make up personally. She laid a good base for my make up to stay all day. She made sure my curls would last all day. She valued my opinion and got my input before proceeding with each step and we truly clicked on every decision. She was so easy to work with and the conversation was never dull. She made me feel glammed up and glowy but still me. While getting the getting-ready photos, she even helped the photographer and us with extra props from her studio which even had a great backdrop and couch for bridal party pictures. She accommodated us in every way and went above and beyond. Lastly, of course, she sent me with a touch-up bag which came in handy. I truly lucked out in finding Jennifer and appreciate all her work into making me feel like a beautiful bride and making the experience feel so special! Please consider her and let her work her magic on you. read more

Having never gotten my makeup or hair done before, I was extremely excited to work with Jennifer and she did not disappoint! I requested a soft glam look for a pageant event which she executed it flawlessly, and she helped me perfect my hair to frame my face and add more volume!

Jennifer is a wonderful makeup artist and hair stylist and you definitely will not regret booking her for any event you have coming up--she can do it all! Especially if you have a big event like a wedding coming up, I highly recommend booking Jennifer! Check out her page on instagram @jpcharmingbeauty! read more

On my wedding day. Jennifer Pham served as an exceptional make up artist. Her skill in enhancing my natural features while still achieving a radiant look for photographs was outstanding. The trial session we had a month prior was incredibly beneficial. She used the insights gained from that experience to refine my makeup on the big day and took time to explain the techniques. I was especially impressed how she accentuated my eyes. I am really happy to have met Jennifer, especially since I had worked with another make up artist before her. Jennifer displayed impeccable professionalism and punctuality. She arrived to my hotel in La Jolla on time and attended not only to me but also my sister with great care. Her contributions were crucial in helping us look our best for such an important occasion. For those seeking a skilled makeup artist for your wedding day or special occasion, I highly recommend Jennifer! You will not be disappointed. read more

I recently had the pleasure of working with an extraordinary makeup and hair artist for my sister's birthday celebration, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. Unlike other local professionals I've encountered, Jennifer stood out not just for her incredible talent, but also for her integrity and professionalism. First and foremost, there was absolutely no pressure to purchase additional services or products; everything was included in the initial quote, which was a refreshing change. The transparency and honesty in pricing allowed me to relax and enjoy the pampering without worrying about unexpected costs. The quality of products used was top-notch, featuring a high-end line that left no doubt about the luxury of the experience. As someone with sensitive skin, I've always been cautious about makeup applications, but the artist was incredibly attentive to this. She used products specifically tailored for sensitive skin, ensuring my comfort throughout the process. The result was nothing short of miraculous. My makeup looked flawless and felt weightless, maintaining its perfection throughout the entire day without any issues like cracking, blemishes, or runoffs. Not a single touch-up was necessary. Moreover, my hairdo stayed impeccable all night long, not falling off or requiring any adjustments. I showed her the style of hair and makeup I wanted, and she executed the look flawlessly, precisely capturing the vision I had in mind. This experience has set a new standard for what I expect from makeup and hair services. The combination of skill, quality products, and attentive service made me look and feel my best, contributing significantly to a memorable celebration for my sister. I wholeheartedly recommend this makeup and hair artist to anyone seeking a stress-free, luxurious beauty experience. Here are photos of the style I want and my photo at the birthday party. read more

Jennifer did my hair and makeup for my Vietnamese ceremony and reception in September. I am obsessed with how it came out! She took everything she could from my inspiration pics, and otherwise advised why it would not work (different ethnicity hair, weather, etc) and gave me alternatives that were just as good. It was also so lovely chatting with her throughout the process - she's a lovely human! It was the hottest weekend of the year in San Diego and Jennifer not only gave me instructions on how to manage, gave me a kit to fix things up after she left, and but also even gave me a complementary touch up between events when I came by her studio, frazzled. Been trying to book her again but she's too busy. Secure a spot with her if you can ladies! read more

Jennifer and her team were amazing! Jennifer did my makeup trial for my engagement shoot, my hair and makeup for my tea ceremony, and my makeup on my wedding reception day. From the beginning, Jennifer was always accommodating and quick to respond. I told her that I had to drive to LA right after my trial for my engagement shoot and she moved my appointment earlier in the day. I showed her an inspiration photo and my makeup came out perfectly. She also took the time to explain all of the steps and assured me that although it feels like a lot of makeup, it will look great in the photos. For my tea ceremony, she adjusted my makeup look based on the color of my dress and it turned out perfect. She also helped put on hair accessories that I brought to pair with my low bun. I got so many compliments from family members at the tea ceremony! I showed her the look that I wanted for my wedding reception the following day and she suggested hair extensions to make it look more fuller. She was able to find extensions that matched my hair and brought them the next day. On the reception day, her team started on hair and makeup for my bridesmaids promptly and Jennifer arrived after driving from another wedding (the dedication!). I really appreciated that she spoke Vietnamese to my mom and MIL and they couldn't stop commenting how talented she was. Her team stayed to do touch ups on everyone and Jennifer also helped with adjusting my dress when I was having trouble with it. Jennifer and her assistant left at their scheduled time and later on, I ended up messing up my makeup (from crying lol). My planner called her and she ended up coming back to the venue and helped touch up my makeup before leaving for her flight. I really appreciated that she did that even though she didn't have to. When I think back on my wedding, I'm really happy that everything turned out amazing because of Jennifer and her team's dedication. I would 100% recommend her if you're looking for a hair and makeup artist! read more

Jennifer and her team were amazing to work with for my wedding. I booked hair and makeup for me, 5 bridesmaids, and my mom and the whole process was so smooth. I wanted to work with someone who could do makeup for Asian faces and the team did an amazing job. During the HMU trial, Jennifer was very communicative in what she was doing and helpful in recommending ideas while taking in my feedback for how I wanted to look. She continuously checked with me throughout the process to make sure I was comfortable with the makeup and hair. During the wedding day, Jennifer and her team got set up right away and even finished all of our HMU early. Highly recommend Jennifer and her team! read more

Jennifer's team was awesome! We sent them to the wrong address so we were 45 mins delayed but they were still done on time for my wedding ceremony. Their make up and hair was on point! They were able accommodate some addition guest that needed some light make up and hair done. Jennifer was supposed to be on her anniversary trip but she still managed to check-in for a few hours to make sure every thing was on point. Highly recommended for anyone needing make and hair done for any event. read more
