She traveled to my hotel in Santa Barbara after a great preview session at her Ventura studio. I don't wear much makeup normally, and she nailed the "natural" look while still making me feel like a bride. My hair and makeup were perfect from start to finish. Most importantly, her calm and friendly personality made the morning of my wedding so relaxing. Thank you, Rachel!

I felt so beautiful, and my mom and bridesmaids were glowing all night! More importantly, we felt confident and radiant, which made the entire experience that much more special.

Belle reviewed the looks we had previously discussed with me and she gave me helpful advice to tailor my look for our day! She was easy to talk to and the time just flew by.

I don't usually wear makeup and was a bit worried about getting it done for the first time and not looking natural. Belle reassured me and checked in throughout the process to make sure I was happy with how everything looked. Although I'm not used to seeing myself in makeup, I was really happy with the result, and my friends said it looked great. I'm so glad I had Belle to do my hair and makeup that day. It saved me a lot of headache and stress.

I get my make up done every so often. its a luxury that some people don't believe in, but trust me,…read moreits worth it. if you had to attend a special event and you wanted to look your best, would you want to stress out about your make up? NO! it'll stress you out and in the end, your skin and make up wouldn't mesh together and you end up looking like a hot mess anyway! and what if there's photos being taken? i'm sure the last thing you would want to think about is if your foundation shade is matched perfectly. or if the foundation you're wearing is going to make your face chalk-white with the rest of your body perfectly tanned, because of course... the tan is something that people think is more important than make up. anyway, as someone who gets their make up done more than the average human being thats my age, i can say with confidence that if you're with Romina, you're in good hands. She takes direction very well and if you don't think that you can describe what it is that you want, bring a photo. she is extremely patient but she's also very swift and quick. She really does bring out the natural beauty with minimal make up, but don't worry... she can do the smoky eye and more daring looks as well.

Romina was one of the makeup artist the day of my wedding and focused on the mother of the bride and the future mother in law (that isn't a makeup wearer).

They made me feel at ease and did a terrific job in about 45 minutes, which was a lot faster than I was originally expecting. They work at the same time. The artists know each other well so there was a respectful and playful dynamic. Sometimes the makeup artist needing a few moments of no head movement to do things like eyeliner, and the hairstylist would ask the makeup artist to step back for before unleashing a big cloud of hairspray. It was just the perfect dynamic. I'm hiring them for my wedding in the Fall in Florida and I just can't wait!

I have tried contacting them since and maybe received one response. Last night I received an automated email from a bankruptcy lawyer stating the business has "ceased all operations effective 10/24/19" but somehow my artist is still assigned to my event and I will need to contact my artist directly with the information given in the email. HOWEVER no contact information has been given for my artist other than the first name "Gaby." We called the business contact number - just rings and goes to voicemail. We called the attorney listed in the email - basically was told to leave my information, the name of the company and how much I'm owed and my name will be put on a list.. however the impression that is being given by the attorney is that it's not guaranteed I will receive the money back and he "knows nothing" about who to contact regarding the situation.. My wedding is in 2 weeks and now I am having to stress last minute to find a hair AND makeup stylist that is available on my date. It's literally impossible. It's very clear that the company had to of known they were filing for bankruptcy within this month, yet continued to book services and accept payments from people booking for future events. It is shocking to me how a company could so easily take advantage of people and is now causing multiple brides extra stress to find a new service provider for their wedding, with little to no time to do so. I will definitely be contacting the Better Business Bureau.

It's a great little escape with precise treatments. Love having the time to go and be pampered.read more

Vickie Waite was one of the hair and make-up stylists for my best friend's Santa Barbara wedding…read morethis past weekend. While the other stylist, Julie, did my hair I jumped in Vickie's chair for some makeup love...and hoped when she was done with me you wouldn't be able to see the signs of last night's margarita hangover in my eyes. And she got the job done... Vickie mentioned that the bride had asked her to give everyone a natural look, but I'm one of those girly girls who loves a ton of makeup (the more...the better) so with the bride's permission I asked her to make me super glam instead. She pulled out the smoky purple MAC eye-shadows and got to work. Oh, and there were eyelash extensions involved too, which got me super excited. 30 minutes later I was very happy with the results and didn't ask Vickie to change a thing...and I'm not one to be shy when I think I'd prefer something else. And the other gals looked beautiful too when Vickie was done with them.

I had done two trial runs already with two separate hair stylists and was not very happy with the results. I finally found someone only TWO weeks before my wedding to do mine, my mother, and my sisters hair.... cutting it way too close. Unfortunately, three days before my wedding, my stylist had a tragedy in her family and could no longer make my wedding. Talk about a bride's nightmare! However my stylist had already contacted Vickie Waite for me and had given her all of my details, pictures of what I wanted done, and set her up as a replacement. I had never met her nor done any test runs, but I went with it and crossed my fingers. Vickie turned out wonderful! She came to our hotel, brought all of her supplies and extra just in case, and most importantly she worked with me and listened to what I wanted, even redoing my hair if I did not like it. She did a great job on my family, and stayed to touch up our makeup and help take pictures and videos while we were getting ready. I am very happy to have had her!

I had the absolute pleasure of meeting and working with Jana to do hair and makeup for my wedding…read more From the get-go, Jana welcomed me with open arms and made me feel like we'd known each other forever. She is incredibly personable and just a kind human being. She is not someone who is going to push you into something you are not comfortable with, and she's very open and communicative. Her experience shows in her ability to turn the inspiration photos to real life. I opted to do the hair/makeup trial, which I very much recommend. Not only will you get the chance to experience what it's like to worth with Jana, but it'll help steer your vision if you're not sure where to start. As someone who does not wear makeup or do my hair in my everyday life, this was pretty key to figuring out the look I was going for. I ended up changing the hairstyle completely from the trial vs the wedding day (I brought inspiration photos for each look) and Jana was absolutely game for it all. We both ended up loving how my hair looked the day of the wedding, and it framed my face in a more flattering way. Also, I absolutely loved how my makeup turned out. I still looked like me, but just enhanced. She blended different colors to customize and match my skin tone, and also custom blended the lip color shade. The makeup also felt really light and didn't appear to be caked on, AND it lasted to the end of the evening. My mother-in-law also had similar compliments regarding the lightness of the makeup. Jana brought her colleague Kathleen to do the hair/makeup for my mother-in-law and makeup for my mom. Kathleen brought the same easy going energy, and it was just a fun gab fest in the getting ready room. Jana also took a lot of pictures during the process for the trial, and also the day of the wedding, and sent them over the next day (She would have airdropped it, but I don't have an iphone). So I had some getting ready photos of my special day immediately, instead of having to wait for the professional photos to come back. I cannot say enough nice things about the experience and Jana made the process stress free.
