    I cannot sing enough praise for Kristina. She is professional and communicative via phone or email. Her makeup and hair artistry is excellent! She made me feel so comfortable and confident in my own skin. I came to her with a lot of ideas and unsure of what would look best on me with my dress. I also do not wear a lot of makeup. She was patient and generous with her time, guiding me through her advice on how best to minimize my insecurities while maximizing my comfort and beauty. Ultimately we landed on a fresh face that wasn't a far leap from my typical "no makeup" look. My husband said I looked exactly like myself with even more of a glow. My makeup and hair stayed in place through hours and hours of dancing! My moms and sister in law were so happy with their hair and makeup. Of course, I absolutely loved mine. I got so many compliments that night! You should absolutely work with Kristina. My day wouldn't have been the same without her. It's both her skill and her aura that keep you calm, confident, and glammed up!

    I found Kristina on instagram because she did one of Bling Empire's reality star - Kelly's makeup - and it looked great. Kristina was really flexible, communicative, and professional. I had a trial scheduled and she agreed to reschedule it (basically last minute) when my photographer cancelled our engagement photos due to car trouble in southern california (unable to get to nor cal by the date we scheduled). She easily rescheduled it without giving me any kind of hassle - which is amazing. We rescheduled the trial so I could have incredible hair and makeup done for those photos. We needed 2 MUAs for my wedding and she brought someone who did a really good job/following Kristina's soft glam style. My bridesmaids were all soft glam, and their makeup is the best I've seen in their lives. After the trial, I opted for an elevated soft glam - because I wanted some glitter and shine but not heavy on the makeup. Kristina was also great to work with my mom. My mom was worried because she has darker skin - and Kristina was totally open to helping my mom feel comfortable - like using my mom's stuff - even though I'm confident she would have matched the skin color. It makes a difference to not be so rigid and Kristina is not rigid. It was easy to pay her on the day of. She has calm, grounding energy, and doesn't force conversation (I'm more shy and was stressed day of so wasn't chatting much and she didn't force it). I'd recommend Kristina because her prices were reasonable and she delivered well.

    Kristina did my bridal hair & makeup for my wedding, and my sister & mom's makeup & hair. She is such a joy to work with, her pricing is reasonable, and she makes you look like a glowing goddess! She is very down to earth, easy to talk to, and has a wealth of hair & makeup experience. She is very responsive, arrived on time, and executed the day-of perfectly. We tried three different hair styles at my bridal trial, which really helped me figure out what looked best for my big day, and I am so grateful for her generous time. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, my sister & mom loved their looks, and getting ready with Kristina really set a positive tone for the rest of the day. My wedding day was in the middle of a heat wave, and my hair & makeup lasted all night! Thank you Kristina!!

    Having Kristina as the makeup artist for my wedding day was one of the best decisions I have even made. I originally found Kristina on Instagram and when reviewing her profile and website, I knew she was the person I wanted for my wedding. The bridal trial with Kristina was so easy. I do not wear a lot of makeup, so I was unsure of what to expect. Kristina was so sweet and really made me feel good and comfortable when I was getting my makeup done. When Kristina was done, I was shocked to see myself and what a beautiful job she did at the trial. I did not think I could look any better for my wedding day, but Kristina proved me wrong. We made a few minor tweaks to the wedding day makeup from the trial and when it was done, I was floored. I could not have imagined a more fabulous job than what Kristina did and could not be happier with the work Kristina did. Even with the makeup on, I loved that Kristina still made me feel like myself and emphasized my features. Kristina is incredibly skilled at her craft and made my bridesmaids, my mom and aunt and I feel so beautiful on my wedding day. She was very adaptable and so versatile in her skills, from my mom and aunt in their 70s who did not want a lot of makeup to my bridesmaid that wanted big and bold makeup, to my soft glam look, she executed them all perfectly. Not only is Kristina the best at what she does, she is an incredibly kind and fun person to be around. She was so nice to everyone and my family cannot stop raving about how wonderful Kristina was. She brought such a sense of calm and fun to the morning of what can be a very hectic wedding day. I cannot thank Kristina enough for starting my wedding day on such a fun and worry-free note. She is the best at what she does and not only that, she is also a wonderful person. I would hire Kristin a million times over and will recommend her to anyone needing a makeup artist. Thank you Kristina!

    Kristina was amazing! The glam for my elopement was beautiful and 3 weeks later Im still getting compliments on it from family and friends who are seeing photos. Kristina was super responsive about coordinating the arrival time the day of my elopement. Her timing was perfect. She traveled to the Carmel Valley to meet me so traveling to get my hair and makeup done was one less thing I had to stress about. She was so calm and collected the whole time. Anyone who is looking to get hair and makeup done I would highly suggest Kristina! Her work is jaw dropping!

    I would give Kristina 10 stars if I could! I had the opportunity to work with Kristina for my wedding and she and her team (Aline) did a wonderful job on hair and makeup services for myself and my bridal party. Kristina is very sweet, so talented, and always responded promptly to my emails and any questions or concerns I had. She took into consideration all the different skin types and requests of all the bridal party, yet keeping what I wanted in mind as well. Kristina did a wonderful natural look with an up-do that withstood the wind at our wedding venue. Kristina also always wore a mask and sanitized all surfaces between clients, so I felt very safe. I would highly recommend Kristina for your hair and makeup needs! I will definitely be using her again for future events.

    It's been a week since my wedding and I've now had time to collect my thoughts. Kristina is a very lovely person and easy to chat with. She was also patient with answering my questions, but the reason for my two star rating is because my makeup and hair completion time went over. It was suppose to be 12:30pm, but Kristina did not finish until past 1:30pm which stressed me out. My ceremony was at 2pm. If it was only around 15 minutes over, I would have been okay, but it was one hour over. Because of this, photos with my mom and bridesmaids were rushed and cut short. I didn't have extra time to relax or to hang out with my bridesmaids as I anticipated. I wanted to leave the house at 1:45pm to arrive at the ceremony site early but that did not happen. Time is so valuable on a wedding day, so looking back, this was a big regret of mine. I had done both hair and makeup trial with Kristina so I think the correct time should have been calculated for my wedding day to ensure completion time. If I had known, I would have just booked one service with Kristina and I could have done my own makeup before she came at 10:10am.

    I would give Kristina more stars if I could! I worked with Kristina for our June 2022 wedding and had a hair/makeup trail as well. Kristina was so easy to work with and extremely communicative. I found Kristina through a friend of mine who also worked with her for her bridal makeup, and I am so thankful to have found her! She captured what I was looking for perfectly, and I felt in the best of hands. I felt like an elevated but natural/glam version of myself. I had both my bridal hair and makeup done by Kristina, and it was such peace of mind getting to work with her directly. My sisters, mom, MIL and flower girl also had services done with Kristina and her team. They were all raving about their hair and makeup, everyone was so pleased and feeling their best for the big day. Kristina was such a wonderful addition to our day made the getting ready process a breeze. I would work with Kristina a million times over and would recommend her for any bridal needs!

    Kristina is incredible! My roommates and I had her do our makeup before a photo session, and she absolutely surpassed our expectations. If I was getting married anytime soon, I'd definitely want Kristina to be the one doing my makeup and lashes!

    Kristina did a phenomenal job doing the hair and makeup for my wife and I at our Big Sur elopement in October. She was very responsive and attentive leading up to the day, and was a pleasure to work with on the day of the elopement. Kristina timed the hair and makeup perfectly for the both of us, ensuring that we didn't see each others' before the final reveal. She was able to work with our very different skin types (dry vs oily) and tones effortlessly, making the looks cohesive, yet representative of our different personalities. We were both thrilled with our hairstyles, where we had fresh flowers to match our bouquets incorporated beautifully. Kristina was timely, efficient, and was a wonderfully calm presence throughout the day. We felt completely safe and comfortable with her Covid safety and cleaning procedures. We highly recommend her for your bridal hair/make-up and for any kind of occasion!

    OBSESSED with my eyes!!

    Kristina is AMAZING!! I went to my bridal trial and she exceeded all of my expectations, I am SO happy I chose her for my BIG DAY! She is so easy and nice to work with, I know she'll knock it out of the park the day of my wedding! I highly recommend her, she follows your vision and gives amazing recommendations for your bride and bridal party looks! I wanted an Arabian nights inspired eye and she nailed it! Glamorous bridal look. My skin felt refreshed even with the makeup on and she matched my skin tone so perfectly and quickly, looks gorgeous in photos!! She knows what she's doing I am so impressed and you will be too, she does hair too!! THANK YOU KRISTINA!!

    Kristina is amazing! She was so great to work with and listened really nailed the look I was going for. I had a hair and makeup trial with her and she followed up asking for feedback on the look and was able to adjust for the wedding day! So happy with the outcome! Her and her team did all my brides hair and make up too and everyone was so happy, no cranky bridesmaids! Totally recommend her!!

    Kristina working her magic while trying not to get distracted by us :)

Even though this place advertises as "Haircuts Only," a review mentioned they also did color, so she gave them a call. They told her to come right in. At first, we were a little skeptical since the salon is tucked away in the corner of a parking lot, but we were pleasantly surprised by the experience. My daughter was greeted immediately, and the woman who helped her (I believe she was the owner) took the time to examine her hair and ask exactly what she wanted. While waiting, I noticed how efficiently the salon operated--one stylist primarily handled men's cuts, another focused on women's hair, and the owner seamlessly fit in haircuts while my daughter's color was processing. Everything ran smoothly, and the salon had a friendly, professional vibe. After watching for a while, I decided to get a haircut myself, and I'm so glad I did! The cut and style were fantastic, and the price was very reasonable. My daughter's hair turned out perfect--the color match was spot-on, and you'd never know she had an ombré before. Another thing that stood out was how clean the salon was. Stations were wiped down quickly between clients, and the staff was warm and welcoming. This place is truly a hidden gem, and we'll definitely be back!

    This review is for ISIS-…read more I have a girl who I trust with my haircuts wholeheartedly but I haven't found somebody I trust coloring my hair UNTIL NOW! After researching salons in my area I came across Limon. I checked out their yelp and Instagram to see their work. My first consultation was with Kimmy but she referred me to Isis. After my consultation I was nervous but decided to have faith and went forward with my appointment one week later. I haven't had my hair colored since Oct 2024. I let my roots grow out but the bottom portion of my hair was still blond ish. My natural hair color is dark brown and I wanted to go 2 to 3 shades lighter with subtle highlights throughout. I showed inspo pictures as a reference but most of it was verbalizing what I wanted. I was in the chair from 10:30 AM to 4:50PM. It was worth it because now I love my hair! I haven't loved my hair in a long time-thank you Isis! The woman at the front desk is very friendly and offers you something to drink when you check in. The salon is well kept and pretty big inside. Plenty of parking in the back with spots reserved for Limon customers. For those curious about pricing-my service was $540

    Coming back to write an update. How can I say I love this salon even more? Got my haircut by Angela…read more2 months ago and now came back for a complimentary bang trim. It's so nice to see the salon decorated for the holiday with the Christmas tree filled with teddy bears, adds to the warm ambiance. I was greeted by the front desk and they offered me a complimentary drink. I had a hazelnut coffee. Everything is so well done from start to finish, the experience is one all on its own. I also got some hair products that Angela introduced me to and gave me samples the first time I was here. I bought Innersense products for 20% in their Black Friday sale. I ordered them online and set them for pick up. Angela freshened up my hair and she noticed an improvement in my wavy hair and that's really all due to the tips she gave me when she did the curly haircut. She took her time in cutting the bangs and even styled it. She's so sweet and enjoys talking to you while you're in the chair. She's also very good at cutting wavy hair (hard to find someone who can do this well). Limon Salon just got voted the Best Salon in the Silicon Valley, and you can see why! Even though it took me 30 minutes to drive here in bad Bay Area traffic, it was worth it! I already scheduled my next curly haircut for the new year.
