This review is for Brooke Congalves:…read more I'm new to the area and had been searching for a new hairstylist, which can honestly be nerve-racking when you've been searching from someone you can trust with your hair for years. I don't have access to social media, so I ended up finding Brooke through Yelp and I am SO happy I did! I reached out to her by text and she responded almost immediately. Before my appointment, I sent her a photo of my current hair along with a few inspiration pictures of what I was hoping to achieve. Right from the beginning, communication was easy and I felt like she understood what I was looking for. The salon itself is adorable clean, welcoming, and has a really cute modern feel. When I met Brooke, she took the time to actually look at my hair and talk with me about my goals. One of the most important things to me is keeping my hair healthy because I'm trying to grow it long which has taken some time. She was very upfront that getting exactly where I ultimately want to be would be a process, and I REALLY appreciated that instead of trying to do too much in one appointment. She respected the integrity and health of my hair while still getting me incredibly close to my inspiration photos. Brooke was also just genuinely nice and easy to talk to. The entire appointment was comfortable, relax and I was in and out in about three hours, which was another huge plus. She's also only about a 15-minute drive from my house, so finding someone this close who I actually trust with my hair feels like hitting the jackpot! Her pricing was very affordable, but to be completely honest, the quality of her work was beyond! If you're looking for someone who listens to what you want, is realistic about the process, cares about maintaining the health and integrity of your hair, and can actually deliver what you show her in an inspiration photo, go see Brooke. So happy I found MY new stylist. 10/10. Absolutely recommend!

I can't say enough good things about Charlene and Launa!…read more I was attending a wedding at a Temecula winery and wanted to be done up for the occasion. Charlene handled my hair and Launa did my makeup, and together they nailed it. Charlene guided me on adding curl but not too much volume. I was very happy with the result. Launa's makeup was equally awesome. She made me feel put together without my makeup being heavy or overdone. It held up beautifully through a long evening and I received a lot of compliments. Both ladies were professional, warm, attentive, and invested in making sure I loved the final result. They listened to what I wanted and delivered just that. I left feeling confident, beautiful, and ready for a gorgeous wedding. I would absolutely book Charlene and Launa again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for hair and makeup artists who are talented, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Thank you both for helping make the weekend so special!

I reached out to a few stylists, but Alex was one of the first to respond, and from the very beginning, she stood out to me. Not only was her work stunning, she patiently educated me about the process, was fully transparent and gracious with her pricing, and made sure I knew exactly what to expect! Her communication was absolutely top-notch, she was always quick to respond, and even answered random bridal questions I threw her way (like asking for a wedding planner recs -- shoutout to Cassie @ClassyKayEvents!) Alex was truly there for me every step of the way and made the entire process so easy and stress-free. Beyond Alex herself, her team was just as wonderful! From my bridal preview to the wedding day, they were my ultimate hype women. Kaitlyn (makeup) and Jesica (hair) were both so talented, kind, and professional. They not only made me look amazing, but also made me feel so supported and confident. I should mention -- I'm not a hair and makeup girl at all. I usually only wear makeup for special occasions, and even then it's pretty minimal. But these ladies made me feel so beautiful that I actually wish I did my hair and makeup more often! Also my skin can be temperamental but after their application, I had zero issues. On the day of the wedding, the team was early, organized, and ready to go. Alex had created an incredible timeline for all 11 of my bridesmaids, and her team (Kaitlyn, Jesica, Kari, and Karina) worked seamlessly together to keep everything running smoothly. They were not only efficient but also so sweet and willing to help with anything that popped up. I'm unbelievably impressed and beyond grateful to Alex and her amazing team! They made me feel so beautiful, calm, and special on one of the most important days of my life. My only regret is that I can't relive it all again!

Hands down one of the BEST hair and makeup experiences we've ever had!…read more From start to finish, our experience at Thomas Edwards Salon in Temecula was flawless. We shared our inspiration photos for both hair and makeup, and Alena and Mercedes absolutely brought our vision to life--with a level of care, artistry, and professionalism that exceeded all expectations. Alena, who did our hair, was simply phenomenal. She carefully walked through the inspo photos we provided and made thoughtful suggestions based on our face shapes and event needs. I told her I wanted volume at the crown, but still needed a style that would hold all night long--and wow, did she deliver. My hair stayed perfectly in place for 12+ hours, with lightweight hairspray that didn't feel stiff and a secure yet gentle hold using bobby pins. Alena's approach was kind, open, and collaborative, and her execution was perfection. I truly felt beautiful and comfortable the entire night. Mercedes, who did our makeup, was equally amazing. She matched our references exactly--giving my daughter a fresh, natural glow, and giving me a smoky glam look with a subtle shadow wing that was elegant and dramatic without being overdone. She even added a touch of body oil on exposed areas for that extra touch of radiance! Her attention to detail and commitment to making us feel confident and camera-ready was incredible. The reviews were right--these ladies are magic. I live in San Diego, and I will happily make the drive back to Temecula for my next event. Yes--even if it means going all the way back to downtown SD. They are that good. And a big thank you to Brenda for setting us up with these two gems! You've got a dream team at Thomas Edwards Salon, and we're already looking forward to our next visit.

There was always a Dry Bar nearby home or my office. It was predictable and dependable for special occasions and weekly blow outs as I'm terrible at doing my hair. I asked around everywhere online, FB Mom's groups. I guess it's not common here like it is in LA. Anyways, had a quick chat on Yelp with the salon and booked an appointment for a blow out and makeup for my outdoor maternity photo shoot. Michele did both my hair and makeup for me. She was excellent. She needed little direction from me at all. She knew exactly what I wanted and executed perfectly. She's great! I was impressed. I will definitely return. As a newbie to the area, I didn't know but if you come here on a Saturday be prepared to park far away at City Hall and walk over. Not a big deal unless you're 8 months pregnant and hot! It's located right in the heart of Old Town and the tourists pour in here! Lesson learned. Give yourself extra time! Thank you for a wonderful experience, Michele.

My trial went flawlessly, and Leah made me feel so unbelievably comfortable right from the start (she is also a perfectionist - which is something you will appreciate on your wedding day). I can honestly say that her and her co-worker, Brittany, were one of the biggest reasons my wedding day was as special as it was. Not only did they make us LOOK beautiful, but they made us FEEL beautiful. My advice for brides-to-be is DO NOT SKIMP ON THIS SERVICE! Leah and her team are more than worth the cost (also, splurge and get the airbrush, it's amazing). Even before the day of, Leah was such a huge support and I don't know how many times she talked me off the ledge or out of my stress (which wasn't even her responsibility) about the wedding. She gave me a list of "nice to haves" which came in SO MUCH handy the day of. Leah and Brittany listened to our every want and need, and completely brought each of our hair and makeup visions to life on my wedding day. I changed and added things (like a true bridezilla) up until the very last minute and Leah accommodated me, no questions asked. Not to mention they stayed for extra time to make sure we were all touched up for photos. If I could recommend her 1,000x a day, I would. An absolute 10/10 experience, from start to finish.

SERENA is absolutely everything I dreamt up and more, I don't even know where to start? Lol She is such a special person, the kindest soul, super accommodating, professional/on top of it, very responsive, has the best energy/vibe, the trendiest and cutest human, and is THE BEST MAKEUP ARTIST EVER!!!! I have never let anyone else do my makeup, I am super particular about it and typically have to make my own adjustments but NOT WITH Serena! When she did my trial I was blown away. She listens to exactly what you want, has a vision, and executes it perfectly. Better than you ever even envisioned. She did my trial, rehearsal lunch makeup, and day of wedding makeup........ and absolutely nailed it each time. I was truly obsessed, she understood the assignment lol and made me feel so confident/beautiful but still myself which is so important during these exciting but overwhelming times! I never even thought to get my makeup done for my rehearsal lunch but being the sweetest human ever, she reached out asking if I was interested in that and I honestly couldn't have been happier that she did. I felt so beautiful, elevated, and pampered going into all the wedding festivities and I am just so grateful for her. She not only made me look INCREDIBLE but was my cheerleader and therapist all at once LOL making sure my nerves were calm and I was feeling my best, which is more than you could ever ask for! I truly know my wedding would not have been the same without her. She showed up early, brought her own assistant, had her entire set up ready to go, and helped get 10 plus ladies looking the MOST beautiful and out the door with more than enough time to spare and have fun before heading to the venue. Every single one of my bridesmaids were obsessed with their makeup as well and you don't always find that. My makeup lasted ALL night..... that is no exaggeration because I was scrubbing it off the next morning (WINNING) LOLSerena is an ARTIST and takes so much pride in her work. Her goal is to have you leaving looking/feeling your absolute best and I cannot recommend her for your BIG DAY enough. Your vendors play such a huge role the day of and I am so indebted to Serena for how she made me feel and how beautiful she made me look! Serena is the only person allowed to touch my face from here on out! LOL so don't walk - RUN TO BOOK her for your wedding day, there is no one else. I LOVE YOU SERENA! read more

If you are searching for a makeup artist, Book Serena Now!! I found her instagram and right away I knew I wanted her to do my makeup for my wedding. Post wedding - I am so grateful I booked her. I can go on about her, but here are a few reasons why she is the best! #1. I am a covid bride so, I postponed on her twice and the third time we had to switch locations. Even though there was a lot of uncertainty I was throwing at her, she was patient and there for me up to the day of my wedding! #2. My photographer had a very strict timeline of when we all needed to be ready and I was worried, but Serena was on time and got all of us ready with some planned extra time for touchups - my photographer was impressed! #3. She actually listens to what kind of style you like and goes with it. I already knew I made the right choice before my wedding day, but to see all my girls vibe with her and love her made me even more happier. I can easily say she is a friend now and I am coming to her for future occasions! Thank you, Serena. You are the best!! read more

You need to drop everything you are doing for wedding planning and book Serena immediately!!! I found her through her Instagram and am so happy that I ended up booking her. Not only is she fantastic at her job, professional and always on time but she is just an overall wonderful human being. I'll break down why I loved her so much below. 1. She is INCREDIBLE at doing makeup. I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. All of my bridesmaids were in awe of how gorgeous they felt. 2. She is very organized and always on time. She's so organized we finished ahead of schedule on my wedding day! My photographer was in awe because that never happens!! I was so calm all day because Serena started the whole morning off right. 3. She is just a good kind person. My bridesmaids and I felt like we had another friend there getting ready instead of a vendor. She is a joy to be around and will bring great energy to your wedding day. Overall, I can't recommend Serena enough!!! She was fantastic and I am so grateful for her! read more

I could not have found a better make-up artist then Serena for the most special day! Not only was Serena so sweet when I first reached out to her but she also checked in with me before the wedding, asked if I have any questions and made sure we were all set up for the big day! I live in out of town and was not able to make it to a trial run which can be very scary for any bride. Only seeing pictures made me confident in her work and she did not disappoint. She exceeded my expectations. She was right on time, had the best attitude and was so friendly to my bridesmaids and mother. My bridesmaids and mother looked so beautiful and loved their makeup as well! She is SUPER talented, and knows so much about makeup and cosmetics! Serena made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day! She is a makeup angel! read more

Serena did my make up for my wedding this past July. I LOVED my make up, she did such an amazing job. She is extremely professional, friendly and was so easy to work with. I had a negative experience with another make up artist who was so difficult to work with during COVID, so I was disheartened going in - working with Serena totally changed my mood and I am so thankful to her for such a positive experience. Many of the ladies getting their make up done with me were hesitant and anxious about professional makeup, but Serena & her wonderful assistant helped put them at ease, and everybody loved their make up!

I am super picky when it comes to make up and was hesitant to have someone other than myself do my make up, well let me just say I should have never felt that way! She is such a good listener, took time to understand what I was looking for, and spent a lot of time at my trial making sure I was happy and felt beautiful. She uses all the best makeup that I love, was so sweet and I felt so comfortable with her. She made myself and all my gals look flawless. We all felt so beautiful.

Serena did my wedding make up and I couldn't have asked for a better MUA! She also did ALL of my bridesmaids AND my moms so it was a packed morning but she planned and timed out all the girls so well, we didn't have to worry about anything. She was also able to politely take charge of all of us ladies so we could stay organized and on time. My make up was beautiful, her products lasted throughout the whole day (even when it got a little toasty & breezy). She listened to what I wanted - I told her I dont normally wear a lot of make up so she made me look natural but beautiful and photo ready. Would def recommend! read more

I had messaged a ton of different hair and makeup artists when I was first looking to book a team for our wedding. It was shocking to me how many never responded or failed to answer even basic questions. Kelly (the owner of this business) was quick to respond and answered all of my questions from the beginning. She always responded within a day or so when I sent her an email and made sure to address all the questions I sent her. She made the process and easy one. I had three girls do our hair and makeup - Jami did makeup, Chelsea did hair, and Rosy did both (including mine). They were all fantastic and made everyone look gorgeous. They showed up on time and worked quickly, so even with 8 people getting services, we stayed on schedule. They also were so much fun to hang out with and chat with. Their prices were reasonable ($240 for hair and makeup including airbrushing and eyelashes) and I was so happy with how everyone looked. I highly recommend Knight and Veil for your wedding!

Everyone was relaxed, laughing and enjoying the morning before the chaos begins! I could not have asked for a better team

She was super easy to talk to and was super friendly. From coordinating a make up trial to the actual wedding day, I have been obsessed with how she did my hair and make up! The best part? Her make up didn't budge on my wedding day, even in 90F weather! She was tasked with working on my wedding party of 11 and we started as early as 5:30am and had such a fun and friendly attitude from beginning to the end! She's seriously super friendly and a blast to talk to that you even forget that you've been in the chair for over an hour! Highly, highly, highly recommend her to anyone who has any bridal makeup needs!!

She did my makeup for my wedding day, as well as makeup for my mom and two bridesmaids. I felt so confident in her ability as soon as she was finished airbrushing my face during my trial. I was most concerned with my eye makeup, yet had no idea what I wanted during my trial. She completed a beautiful look, but after I went home and browsed Pinterest, I decided I wanted something totally different for my wedding day. I emailed her and she was very open with me about what that could mean, but wanted me to be happy. Fast forward to my wedding day, and Raeleen was at the hotel room bright and early. My mom had never had her makeup done to this extent, and was nervous that the airbrushing wouldn't cover her hyper-pigmentation on her cheeks. My sister never wears makeup and asks a lot of questions. Raeleen was so sweet and patient with my mom and sister and they both are still raving about how pretty they felt! My mom said she wishes Raeleen could follow her around everywhere lol :) Raeleen is very quick at responding to text messages and emails. She has very reasonable prices, and is worth every penny. I hope I can get my makeup done by Raeleen again! I also love that Raeleen practices a holistic and natural lifestyle.

I wanted to give Bella Rae Day Spa 4 stars. So much. But unfortunately, the facts just don't…read moresupport it. First, the words "day spa" are quite misleading. Although nicely decorated, a walk-in closet sized room with a treatment table & a couch does not a day spa make. I initially was interested in the organic fruit facial. It is advertised on the site as having "fruit acids, vitamins and enzymes that will reveal smooth radiant hydrated skin." But I was told on the phone and in person that it is used solely for relaxation. Misleading again. When you arrive on time for your appointment you may find as I did, that the shades are drawn and the door is locked. You then come across a small rectangular door hanger tucked in the window reading "Please don't disturb, session in progress." Raeleen, while congenial on the phone, mentions nothing of this situation that may occur. And the website uses the terms "us & "we", misleadingly so. The time for the treatment comes and goes as I wait outside. We start late. I am not given a receipt for the cash payment. After paying I am rushed to leave. Overbearingly so. While the treatment felt good, unfortunately with so many warning signs I just can't bring myself to return.
