The braid she put in my hair
Jane K.

I asked Kelly to make me look natural and somehow cover my acne.. She made me and my bridesmaid look very natural! We both felt pretty on my wedding day :) The hair dresser on her team was also amazing. Ive gotten my hair done before in an updo (which isnt easy because I have sooo much long hair) but I think this stylist was the best :). Thank you for making me look and feel pretty on my wedding day :)!!

My hairstyle for the event.

I booked based on good yelp reviews. And I was so happy to choose and work with Kelly. She is so sweet, flexible and easy to work with so does hair stylist (don't know the name) She listens to you what you want. My husband loved the make-up and hairstyle! If you need a makeup and hairstyle, I highly recommended to go here :)

I was a little insecure to show…read moreup you know bear face, and All can do that to us girl sometimes when we don't know another girl, but B instantly made me feel like I was one of her best friends, and we had known each other for 10 years. I know this is about makeup, but I first fell in love with her personality, and then her skills are top-notch like I don't know where the training came from, but it definitely is super professional and incredibly knowledgeable. All of the makeup she uses is the highest quality. She's really into proper skin care as well and has so many good tips and tricks that you can apply to your own make up routine when you don't have a professional like her around to do your face ha ha. I hired Beatrix to do my make up for my birthday because I was turning 37 and wanted to feel like I was only turning 27! Mission accomplished she gave me a fresh glow Dewey face, perfectly plump lips that I still have not been able to replicate for some reason, ha ha, and this effortless Fresh face Look that made me look insanely pretty but also like I wasn't trying at all. It was perfect.! She was quick and so fun to talk to you. I almost didn't wanna leave and I even invited her to come to my birthday party! Everyone complimented me all night, which is something that doesn't happen often when I do my own makeup, even though I consider myself medium skilled ha ha anyways I'm really glad I did it. No regrets!

I came in for a glam look to wear for a modeling shoot and Brianna nailed it. My makeup came out so…read moreperfect and flawless. She is so talented! She is officially my go-to make up artist.

Sharon was by far the best vendor I worked with for my wedding - the process, communication, and…read morehow her work came out! With all the stressors of a wedding and managing so many different things, Sharon was someone who I know I didn't need to worry about doing an amazing job. She is SO good at what she does (both hair and makeup!) and did all my bridesmaids, mom, MIL, and SIL looks the day of and stuck to the timeline. I had a wide range of ethnicities in my getting ready group and she was able to do such a good job with every single one. I've never felt prettier than I did with Sharon's work. From the trial, she listens to you and is totally receptive to feedback on any adjustments you want to make. She is so easy to work with and she will make you feel absolutely stunning based on whatever look you are going for. Book Sharon if you want to feel your best!

Sharon's work will make you feel so so so pretty!…read more I had a trial with her which I was so happy with. Honestly, Sharon is so good at what she does, I don't even think I needed a trial because I absolutely loved what she did but it gave me peace of mind and reassurance. I told her all my concerns (oily skin, hair that doesn't hold curls, etc) and she made sure it was all addressed. I had SO many compliments after my trial and on wedding day. My hair normally doesn't hold a curl but I wanted cohesive waves and they held the entire night without making my hair feel stiff. She was perfectly on time too. Her arrival, set up and doing my mom's makeup, my sister's hair and makeup and then mine. She ended perfectly at the end time we aimed for too. I was also pretty nervous on wedding morning and getting my hair and makeup done was surprisingly soothing. I've never felt prettier in makeup than I did with Sharon's work. I'd hire here again for any event I'd want to look extra perfect for.

I booked Kahn as my main hair and makeup artist for my wedding and can't even begin to describe…read morewhat an amazing job she did! I don't usually wear makeup on day to day basis, so I was looking for someone that could achieve a natural, glowy, k-beauty type look for my wedding. When I saw Kahn's portfolio, I knew she was the one! I booked her first a HMU trial a few months before the big day- I absolutely loved my makeup at the trial but decided I want to go for a different hairstyle after taking some time to think about it. On the day of the wedding, I was honestly a little nervous because I didn't get the chance to try out the new hairstyle, but Kahn understood my vision and delivered exactly what I had asked for (which looked even better than I could've imagined). I truly have never felt so beautiful than on my wedding day, and it's all thanks to her! My only slight qualm with the service as a whole (and not Kahn's fault at all) was that there was a last-minute scheduling conflict and Kahn was unable to stay to do hair and makeup for the rest of the bridal party. However, the agency provided us with an additional HMU artist and offered to have Kahn come back during cocktail hour to do a free touch-up. I appreciate that they offered this concession, because it was great to have her touch up my makeup after shedding some tears at the ceremony. Kahn even offered to touch up the groom, and helped me with my outfit change during that time. The two additional makeup artists (Nikki and Madison) were also great- my mom was extremely happy with her makeup and said it was the best makeup service she's ever received. Overall, working with Kelly Zhang Agency was a smooth process from start to finish and I would 100% choose them again if I had to do it all over.

I appreciate Kelly, Kadet, and Maddie for providing the most beautiful hair and makeup services for…read moremy bridal party. I was super important for me to work with HMUA who are familiar with Asian features. The studio and Caroline (the account coordinator) was very communicative and clear. I had a few changes in my HMUA. I booked Kelly a few months prior to my wedding and decided to have a HMUA stay longer to assist with touchups. Overall, communication was great and there were no hiccups. As for the service itself, I was nervous for HMUA because I don't wear too much make up and my trial with Kelly the day before my wedding at her studio in Pasadena. At the beginning, Kelly and I chatted about my skin and what I was looking for. I shared some inspo pics and she quickly grasped the ideas of what I was looking for. Kelly is not just a HMUA, but truly cares about those she works with. During my trial, she would checked in with me during the process - asking me if I was comfortable while working on my eyes. Furthermore, I had shared with her that my press-on nails were stressing me out (they kept popping off!) and Kelly immediately called her nail lady to see if she could squeeze me in for an appointment. Within 10 minutes, I was at the nail salon getting my nails done! The day of, Kelly and her team arrived earlier than expected. We had 4 bridesmaids + 2 moms scheduled for Kadet and Maddie. Many members of my bridal party had never gotten their hair & makeup done before; Kadet and Maddie were very skilled in understanding what each person was looking for and executing quickly. My party shared high praises for both! Since Kelly and I worked the day before, I had an idea on what to expect. We made a few tweaks the day of - the falsies kept bother my eyes and Kelly kept tweaking them until they were perfect and comfortable. I also initially wanted more blush and Kelly was willing to add more, but advised to just sit in the makeup before making any changes. She was right! After sitting with the makeup for a bit, the balance of it all felt perfect. It turned out perfect and what I wanted - fresh and natural and looking like myself. I appreciate Kelly sharing her expertise while still being open to changes. She was a pleasure to work with a calming presence that make the wedding morning flow smoothly. I would recommend Kelly and her team to any brides that are looking for HMUA that is skilled in Asian features. All members of my bridal party were glammed and comfortable. Thank you so much to Kelly, Kadet, and Maddie for helping us look our best!
