Nema H.

I couldn't be more in love with the magic Athra does with her hands on my face. I do not like to have caked on makeup and she does a very great job by not doing that. She also continues to educated herself with famous/professional artists frequently so she is up with the trends and new techniques that make us look flawless. Growing up with a sister who is an artist in the industry, Athra has exceeded my expectations by far! Shadow is perfect, foundation looks airbrushed and the contouring is on point. I can't believe I was so scared to sit in her chair in the beginning because any artist I would try never knew how to work my face and she glamed it perfectly. You are amazing!!! Thank you for making me extra beautiful. I can't wait to continuously hire you as my makeup artist.

For a very small and reasonable fee, we had the trial at my apartment in the city. It was so easy, and Natalie was professional AND personable. She made my sister and I very comfortable talking about what we liked and what we didn't like. Overall it was an incredible experience, our hair and makeup looked fantastic, and we booked Natalie for the big day! I feel confident I will be updating my review after the wedding even more satisfied with my experience and of course her work :)

From the moment I sat down, I could tell Jason wasn't just going to do my makeup and send me on my way. He's deeply serious about his craft, and you can feel his passion in the way he teaches, explains, and shares. Every step came with not just technique, but reasoning--why this brush, why this blend, how this shade works with my undertones, how to adapt for day versus night. It wasn't overwhelming; it was empowering. What really struck me is how much he wants customers to succeed long after they leave his chair. This wasn't about selling products--it was about giving me tools and knowledge I could actually use on my own. He was patient, thorough, and generous with his expertise. Ninety minutes felt like it flew by because I was so engaged. I first met Jason years ago when he did my makeup as a young adult, and that impression stayed with me. Fast-forward to now--I'm grown, and I still remembered not only his artistry, but also his charisma. That's why I specifically sought him out. And he did not disappoint. I left Sephora glowing, smiling, and feeling like no one could tell me anything. Jason is well-sought-after for a reason. This isn't just me recommending him--it's me urging you: go book Jason. If you get the chance, don't hesitate. I don't ever want anyone else touching my face except him.

Jenny gave me an effortless, clean look -- I felt like myself but also the most beautiful I've ever looked! Absolutely go for the airbrush -- all the makeup stayed on all night through tears and dancing and my skin looked utterly flawless (even though it certainly is not!). During my trial, Jenny was informative and thoughtful with the looks I wanted in both my eye and hair. She remained flexible during the trial when my hair was too short for the hairstyle I wanted. I was so surprised when she showed up on my wedding day and exclaimed "Your hair grew!" (and I was able to get the hairstyle I wanted!). It shows how much she thinks about and remembers each and every one of her brides. My mom told me afterwards she made her feel so beautiful -- and that was so important to me. Jenny is so kind and knowledgable. She was responsive and clearly has a ton of experience -- I highly recommend that you hire her for your special day!!! You will absolutely not regret it.

Now I know that makeup is…read morean art and highly subjective, but Jenny is like a scientist and is able to flawlessly translate what's in your head to reality. She's quick to respond to any inquiries and her process takes the stress out of knowing you will look like on your wedding day. My makeup and hair lasted all night and it was one less thing to worry about - no touch up needed, even on a super hot and humid day. I'm someone who has stick straight hair that almost never holds a tight curl and she was able to wrangle it into perfectly curled submission without feeling crunchy at all. I was so impressed at how beautiful the makeup looked both in person and in my photographs. I had a few last minute changes to my wedding timeline and she was super accommodating. My bridal party, mother, and I had an easy and relaxing morning with her. I was so impressed how she was able to quickly adapt to everyone's different tastes and styles. Thank you Jenny for everything!!!

I have longer natural curly 4A-4C hair (thick in the crown area). A little back story: I was cutting close to my appointment time due to a flat tire, so I immediately messaged her on Instagram and tagged her in a picture of my flat tire to let her know. She asked if I was okay FIRST! (how kind is that!?!) I arrived about 15-20 minutes after my scheduled time and apologized and she was so gracious about it. Her salon was clean, cute and welcoming. With both of us in masks, she immediately proved hand sanitizer and check my temperature. (which definitely put me at ease!) She asked questions about my hair care routine and we talked about my hair goals. The entire process was smooth and the conversation was great! (She is so down-to-earth, friendly and you just know she's a true expert at what she does) I look forward to making my next appointment in 8 weeks for a trim. Thank you, Nicky, it was a pleasure!

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!

She told me a bit about her shop after I told her what a gem she has in the middle of Boston. She gave me a wonderful facial, addressed my skin concerns and is a font of information all all matters regarding facials, waxing, etc. She has an amazing energy about her and as a Reiki Master Practitioner, I asked her if she was doing "healing" as she did her facial. She informed me that she gives a facial with the guidance of energy healing. Super impressed and have gone back many times over!! I highly recommend Indulge Day Spa for a relaxing, fun and interesting experience! A. Waugh Plymouth, MA

If I could give this place no stars, I certainly would. The manicure/pedicure lady, Christine, is…read morethe rudest, most awful person I've ever attempted to receive a luxury service from. I made an appointment for two manicures after purchasing the service from Groupon. Our appointments were made for 7:30pm. We showed up to the salon early, around 7:10pm. We get there to find that the salon is closed; all lights are off, but the door is open. We go inside and call a few names...no one is around, but whoever left the salon last definitely didn't lock up. I proceed to call Christine after finding her number on the website. She very rudely answers and says that our appointments were at 7pm, not 7:30. I am 200% percent positive they were for 7:30 as I checked back with my conversation with my friend. Anyway, we weren't that late for our appointment even if it was for 7pm. We never received a phone call asking if we were coming or if we were alright; nothing. Christine proceeded to tell me that they are only open until 8pm on Wednesdays and she would never schedule an appointment for 7:30pm. I said, well your sign says you are open until 7pm on Wednesdays and her response was that she decided to "stay open late for the groupon". ??????? Can someone help me understand this. I then asked if she would come back to give us the service we paid for and scheduled and she declined. Not only did she decline, but when I told her the sign says they're open until 7 and I was confused, she HUNG. UP. ON. ME. I called her back because it was obviously absurd and she told me that because we missed the appointment she did not "want us as her customers" and I demanded a refund. Thankfully, Groupon gave me a refund and I never have to go to this salon ever again.. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me preface this by saying I've been doing my own makeup and others' for years and years. So, my…read morestandards are pretty high. Maybe impossibly high. I have never liked the way anyone else has done my makeup, but I decided to take a chance with the Buy With Me voucher. My friend and I went to try it out. I was looking for something different. And after, I definitely looked different. The eye makeup was way too much for my face, and made my eyes look tiny. The dark extended from my crease to my eyebrow and even in my inner eye. Almost like a super intense smokey eye. I am warm colored, but the eye and face makeup used was cool. I looked sickly, and from far away like I had been punched in both eyes. Even my friend, who is usually positive and looking for the best, thought I looked awful. She was underwhelmed with her results too, and she'd gone to learn makeup application tips. The owner was gracious enough to redo my makeup. Both women were so sweet to myself and my friend. I tried to find things to purchase after, but I have more color assortment in my own personal makeup drawer than I found in the store. I'm sure this is a wonderful place for weddings... I feel bad writing this review because of how lovely they treated us, but I just felt underwhelmed and ugly looking at myself when it was over, which is the last thing you want after you've gotten your makeup done. My friend and I both went home and washed our faces. My only tip is to just be very specific with what you want. I said do whatever. And I got whatever.
