I chose Brittany based off her reviews and I am SO GLAD I did! I am not a huge makeup enthusiast so…read moreI was looking for an expert who was versatile, could do natural glam, a soft and romantic look, and most importantly had good vibes. Brittany exceeded my expectations. She was responsive, kind, calming, affordable, and went above and beyond to make everything perfect. I did the trial run (no regrets) and Brittany came to my home. We went over makeup options, different hair options, and veil placement options. She asked lots of questions to make sure I was comfortable with everything, her skincare prep was fabulous and my makeup looked great! She spent the time to go over each step and customized my look based on my feedback. She's a true natural and was able to take my confusing feedback and turn it into exactly what I was envisioning. On the wedding day, Brittany was such a calm and happy presence in the room. My whole family loved her. We changed a few things we had gone over at the trial, and she remembered everything! Even things I had forgotten mentioning. That meant a lot to me. Brittany truly cares about her clients and it's clear she takes her job seriously. Most people in the wedding industry just treat you like another number but Brittany was the only person in the whole process who treated me like me. Brittany also did my 13 year old's hair and makeup for the wedding. I was worried about her looking too mature but Brittany did her makeup so perfectly, it just highlighted her features in such a soft, natural way... I was honestly speechless. I'm an anxious worrier but I never had to give a second thought to my hair/makeup/veil. Brittany added body glow and left behind a little touch up kit that had everything I needed. She even helped my mom with her makeup and lashes and squeezed in a friend who needed last minute hair and makeup services. My hair and makeup lasted all night, looked fabulous, and I felt like a star. I would hire Brittany again in a heartbeat to do anything makeup or hair related. She is truly an expert in her craft and her passion shows. In all the crazy hecticness of the wedding world - Brittany was the one of my favorite parts.

Very accommodating, pleasant, and did a beautiful job! Makeup looked great all night.read more

Shelby was so quick to respond to my inquiry, she was able to fit me in her schedule, as she was already booked with a morning appointment and my photoshoot was in the afternoon. Shelby's studio was stunning and so clean! I've never gotten my makeup professionally done so well in my life. I was able to show Shelby a few inspo pics and she worked wonders on my face! I was so incredibly happy with the outcome from her use of high quality products and overall knowledge of her craft, Shelby delivered! Thank you for such a great experience, Shelby seriously ladies, do not hesitate to book with her, you won't be disappointed!

I love the photos posted on yelp as it was my style so I followed my gut and took a chance. I'm so beyond happy I did. Shelby did a trial for me when I was in San Diego a few months ahead of the wedding along with my welcome dinner makeup and wedding makeup for me and the entire family! She did such an incredible job in making my makeup looking glowing and natural. Some of my family has never warn makeup and she did such a phenomenal job of making everyone look so natural. We all got such compliments on our makeup. Shelby is such a professional to work with along with being easy to get along with, cool and kind. I wish I lived closer to use her more often, but she's an incredible at what she does and I highly recommend her!

THIS girl... THIS girl right here... TURNED ME INTO A HOT CHICK! Lol…read more Everyone at my party (and constant strangers at the bar we were at) was freaking out all night. I watched so many people look for me and not realize I was right by them because they didn't even recognize me hahahah. Which is EXACTLY what I wanted! To top that off though, and what really made me want to write a review, was Kandice's professionalism and her desire to please. Everything from her email signature stating what her email/office hours are, to taking credit card info upfront online, to having an away message when she was on a short vacation... Extremely respectable. It's so easy to trust someone that takes pride in their business, has proper grammar/capitalization, etc. Not all that easy to find in SD. As far as her "desire to please"... She was SO accommodating. The exact opposite of snooty which kept shocking me from a young female that likes makeup in Southern CA haha. Heck, when I mentioned that I would be late because parking was hard to find, she even offered to walk downstairs to come meet me and show me where to park. And that's just one example. :) If I ever get married I would be LUCKY to have her as my right-hand!

After my trial, I sent Hana some feedback about things I would like to change for the day of the wedding, and she was so receptive and kind.

The curls in my hair actually lasted for several days after the wedding. Hana also did the makeup for my sister and sister-in-law, and they both loved their makeup as well. She took the time to listen to their requests and had no problem making any adjustments they asked for. Highly recommend Hana for any of your hair or makeup needs! Her Instagram is full of beautiful, full-glam looks, but rest assured that she is amazing at doing natural look as well.

Lindsey is contagiously positive and a realist at the same time and so flipping supportive. She was also great at giving gentle, honest opinions throughout and listening to what I wanted/my vision of the makeup. I did not realize that I was hiring not only a makeup artist but an immediate bestie for my wedding days! Lindsey did my makeup so beautifully. I wanted something natural, but not too natural. I wanted to look and feel like a queen, and Lindsey did just that. There were many moments during both wedding days when things were chaotic, stressful, and not going as planned. Lindsey was there for all of those moments, including the tears, and she was so unbelievably supportive and then would fix my makeup that I had cried away lol. Lindsey brings such warm, healing, and positive energy. I am SO grateful I chose her. She is worth every penny...AND MORE. I would pay literally any price to have her do my makeup again.

What catches most of our attention right off the bat is the lovely vintage decor that is LIW. Pink pastel and white striped walls, a vintage vanity you sit in front of and admire as you are pampered along with plenty of other trinkets and quaint furniture. Bekah makes your visit with her personal by great conversation, a warm smile and hospitality. She offers tea, coffee and water along with little cookies in a tea cup and saucer. You truly feel like a lady when you are here. She listens to you. In my experience, many women I see for my hair listen but don't listen at the same time ya feel me? She cares and it shows in the effort she puts into her business and when you speak to her. I visit for hair cuts and to get color done and have always left feeling radiant and beautiful. I am a hard girl to please because I am so protective with my hair and have left so many salons in tears because I didn't receive what I wanted. Those days are over. As I've gotten older I've learned that "good work ain't cheap and cheap work ain't good." I apply that rule of thumb when it comes to hair and tattoo services. I break $100 + when I come here and get a cut and color done ( I have a a lot of hair) but regardless you get what you pay for and I will bust my tail and save my pennies to come here. My first visit Bekah was even kind enough to let me get my hair done with her even though my job was late depositing my money to my account and I was broke. I got there assuming my money would be there like it is every Wednesday and my Account had $5 dollars in it when I checked. Embarrassed, before she even sat me down I told her I had to leave and we had to reschedule Because I didn't get paid on time. She said it was fine and I could pay her the next day. I couldn't believe it. My money came in the next day and she charged it. That was the nicest thing ever. I will continue to do my business here with LIW and suggest you ladies looking for a new place to give Bekah a call and set up a Appointment you won't be sorry.

In searching for a hair and make-up artist, I came across the wonderful reviews on Yelp. After reviewing their packages and browsing their website and Instagram pages, I knew I had to get in touch with Call Me Beautiful. Immediately after reaching out for an inquiry, Lauren (owner) emailed me and we went back and forth with my vision and what I was looking for. Responsiveness is key to me and Lauren was always timely with her replies. I was looking for a hair and make up team from same company...a one stop shop for services. Unfortunately, no CMB make-up artists were available on my wedding day (6/11/16). Lauren was very understanding about my desire for a hair and make up duo. Although she would be able to deliver on one of my needs for services, she did not push at all. I really loved and appreciated Lauren's honesty and easygoing personality and set up a hair trial. My best friend (matron of honor) accompanied me to my appointment and right from the start, Lauren welcomed us and made us feel very comfortable. I was introduced to my stylist, Tara who was very sweet and easy to talk to. During the trial, I showed pictures of what I was looking for and Tara delivered on my vision. Leaving the trial, I was beyond happy with the outcome of my hair and looked even more forward to my wedding day... Fast forward two and a half months and it is my wedding day. The day before my wedding, I decided to change my hairstyle a bit. Was a little nervous since my trial hair was different, but Tara did her thing. While doing my hair, she would ask questions and also give recommendations. Final product was better than my original vision and better than the picture I showed her. Thank you Tara for glamming me and my girls up on the most important day of my life. We all LOVED our hairstyles and my husband did as well Booking Process: This was by far the easiest transaction with all of my vendors. After letting Lauren know how many girls needed their hair done, she sent over a timeline and contract. Upon booking, 20% is due and the remainder of payment is due one month before wedding. Venmo (electronic payment method similar to PayPal) requests were sent by Lauren, which made the transactions super easy. Quick click and payment was deducted from my account and processed. The contracts also already include gratuity charge, which makes things so much easier. I ended up adding two girls after final payment was made and Lauren revised the timeline and again sent over a Venmo request. So easy and seamless! The timeline was perfectly set. My photographer wanted myself and bridal party all done by 1 PM. Lauren noted this and constructed my timeline accordingly. Lauren... I can't thank you enough for all of your help on my wedding day and for linking me and my girls up with Tara. We enjoyed her company and were BEYOND satisfied with our hairstyles. The first bridesmaid had a 6:00 AM appointment and when our event concluded at 11:00 PM, our hairstyles were still intact...all of us. If you are looking for a professional and honest business along with an easy and seamless process when booking hair and/or make-up services, Call Me Beautiful has my vote. Thank you again ladies...

Thanks Tara for delivering on my hairstyle!! My husband loved it as well
