Her portfolio speaks for itself on her artistry in both hair and makeup, so I want to highlight the things you can't see from pictures: Fei is an amazing communicator -- she gives her opinions and takes feedback in a way that doesn't make you feel insecure about your looks and preferences. I had a bit of anxiety around not wanting to look like a different person on my wedding day, but Fei was able to help me look/feel like myself while still being beautifully elevated. She also had techniques for all of my usual beauty issues -- in particular, I have fine hair & not much of it cut in layers (the enemy of most hairstyles) and my monolids always give me panda eyes within hours even with eye primer. But Fei managed to give me my exact inspiration picture hair and her eye makeup magic lasted all night! Fei is well worth the investment -- her guidance and skill helped me feel confident both on the "one day" and in the "forever" pictures. Thank you, Fei!!

Fei brought such a calming, joyful presence to the morning, which made getting ready one of my favorite parts of the day. My bridesmaids, cousins, mom, and aunts all looked and felt amazing too, and we all felt so well taken care of. I'm beyond grateful for Fei's talent, kindness, and care. She went above and beyond, and I can't recommend her enough to future brides!

I…read moreoriginally told her I wanted a more natural sweet look during my make up trial session and showed her my initial thinking/inspiration for hair. She captured exactly what I wanted and surprised me with her creativity in hair styling too. She took a great number of pics to share with me and asked me to think about the makeup style, types of eyelashes, etc. She could adjust anything to my taste as she is very versatile and professional in different kinds of makeup/hair styles. In the end, I decided to go with a more glamourous look with a bit more focus on. Before the wedding, Yin coordinated with me and my planner on the game plan to streamline everything and they arrived right on time to set up the makeup station and the hair station for both to go smoothly. I was really happy with my bridal look/hair (glamorous but still me) and it made me feel like a princess for my big day. The makeup stayed fresh and beautiful throughout the day and she gave me a little bit of lip color for touch-up in case it wore off. My bridesmaids and the two moms had a wonderful time with her and her team too to get pampered and dolled up! Thank you for making my wedding day so special.

From the moment I contacted Ligia she was very helpful and responsive. I went in for a trial and due to the fact that she wasn't totally happy with the results of my first trial she invited me back for a second trial to ensure I looked flawless on my big day! Ligia takes her job very seriously and is meticulous about every detail. Prior to the wedding Ligia provided me with some helpful hints on what would help me prepare my face to look its best. She did the make up for myself and 4 other women all of varying ages and skin tones and she made all of us look gorgeous and the best part was it felt amazing. I am not one that wears a lot of makeup regularly and neither are the other but the airbrush make up is awesome, it felt great and stayed put all day & night! I also opted for the false lashes and I LOVED how they looked! On top of her skills Ligia is one of the most genuine people I have ever met, from the trial to my wedding day it was so easy communicating with her and she is just so easy to be around, she just fit right in on the day of the wedding and did a phenomenal job at getting me and my ladies photo ready!

I had never had airbrush makeup and I was so glad I went with it.

I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who does great makeup, and is fun to hang out with all day. It's important to like the people you hire because you'll be spending a few hours with them the day before and she was great!

I felt compelled to write this review in hopes that it can save even one individual from being…read morescammed by this business. I booked a last minute/day-of appointment online at Le Petit Salon Curl Concept for a curl style: specifically the curly style/finish. Multiple times slots were available online and I booked for 3:15 PM. Credit card info was required at time of booking. An hour later, I received a text message that my appointment had been moved up by 30 minutes. I subsequently spoke to someone on the phone stating I had another appointment prior and that the 2:45 PM time slot didn't work for me. They insisted I had to make it by then or close to it. I subsequently jumped through hoops coordinating my schedule, rushed and arrived to Le Petit Curl Concept at 2:50 PM. I was taken upstairs for my appointment. The business manager - Teo Sorce - was upstairs standing about 20 feet from me. She communicated to the receptionist that my hair was not curly enough and they would not provide any service for me. At that point I said it was okay, I would leave without receiving any service. However, I wanted to ensure that my credit card on file would not be charged for a service I did not receive. Teo told the receptionist to tell me that charging me was policy and my card would be charged the full amount. I asked to speak with Teo directly and she blatantly refused and told the receptionist to take me downstairs. I stated I would happily come back when she was free or wait for her to have two minutes free in order to speak with me directly. I reiterated that given the circumstances, the charge was unethical. She refused to speak with me stating she would not be free at any time for the rest of the day. My credit card was charged - not once but twice - for the full amount. I ended up having to call my bank who removed the second charge and I cut my losses with the first. It is much less about the money for me and much more about the underhanded and unethical business approach that Teo is comfortable maintaining. I have never seen this level of unprofessionalism demonstrated in any other business. Unfortunately I did not read the reviews until it was too late as I see other people unfortunately experienced the same treatment from Teo.

She worked with me every step of the way to ensure I looked exactly how I dreamed on my wedding day. What really blew me away was how long my hair and makeup stayed absolutely perfect - not a single touch-up needed throughout the entire day! A true testament to her skill and the quality of her work. The trial session was also such a positive experience. It felt relaxed and fun, and June was so open to feedback as we worked towards perfecting the look I wanted. Her flexibility and collaborative approach made the whole process so much less stressful. Also, as an Asian bride, finding a stylist who understands the nuances of Asian makeup and how it complements fair skin was really important to me, and June absolutely nailed it. She has a fantastic understanding of different styles and how to enhance Asian features beautifully. I felt so confident and truly myself on my wedding day thanks to her expertise. For any bride looking for a truly talented, dedicated, and flexible hair and makeup artist who listens and delivers incredible results, I wholeheartedly recommend Love Notes by June. You won't be disappointed!

Alicia was her partner in crime that day and she killed the hair game! She was able to work in hair extensions that haven't been match hair dyed in years. My hair stayed all day perfectly. I'm going on day 4 of not washing out the product she put in my natural hair(extensions are out lol). And it still smells amazing and looks perfect! Now that's magic! If you want seriously beautiful makeup and hair experience with a super chill fun vibe, you better call Lyndsay.

The work is impeccable to a level that I've been stopped by more than one stranger on the street post appointment. They have fantastic pricing and easy booking but what really sets them apart for me is the personalized and comfortable experience in the chair. I've been in salons where you can clearly tell you're their hundredth appointment, they aren't listening to you, they just want to get it done and worst of the staff don't get along with one another. That's not ZenaRose. Every staff member at ZenaRose genuinely gets a long and helps one another out; creating a wonderful atmosphere to spend what is some times more than an hour or two for an appointment. I connected with Kelli on my first visit and no matter what time or day I have booked with her over the years she makes me feel like I'm the only client she's seeing. She is kind, fun and her attention to detail makes me feel so confident when I leave her chair. I had my first every professional make up done by Yuliya today and WOW! I went in with no pictures and stunned with the results. As someone who has never gotten their makeup done I wasn't sure what to expect. Yuliya made me very comfortable, most notably making sure to pause to let me blink while she was doing my eye make up. I hadn't even realized I needed to blink and she's pausing for my comfort. Will definitely be back. Last note on booking, I called ten minutes before they closed the night before I needed a morning appointment. Fully expecting that a Saturday morning in late Feb would be booked solid, I got a call back in less than 10 minutes saying they had worked something out and it's all booked. No matter who you chose at ZenaRose you're going to have an incredible experience.
