From the owner: The Makeup Art Space is a small makeup studio and retail store located on Calgary Trail. Our makeup…read moreartists have over 10 years of working in the industry and specialize in everything from beauty, fashion, bridal, runway, photographic makeup to special effects makeup. We want to change the way people respond to the traditional methods of cosmetic purchases and applications. As we saw it, you had two options: 1. Go to a department or specialty store and have your makeup removed and re-applied in public... then be pressured to buy by a salesperson on commission. 2. Or have a makeup artist come to you with a case full of makeup from a multitude of brands that you don't recognize or know the cleanliness of (or that if you loved or wanted to touch up later, you were out of luck). We saw a need for a private studio with access to a fantastic quality line where there is the option to purchase the products used on you with no pressure.

Here is what my wife had to say about Astrid: ~~~ Dear Astrid, I wanted to pass on a huge thank you for all of the support and assistance you provided in ensuring our day was as special as it could be! I had so many compliments on my hair and make up, and I have been plugging your services shamelessly!! You really made me feel so beautiful for our important event. Thank you very much! Jameela ~~~ I personally found Astrid to be a very pleasant, energetic, and fun individual! If I had to get my make up done, I'd for sure go fo her too! Thanks Astrid! :)

I really don't think I can sing enough praises of Astrid and her talent as a makeup artist. I hired…read moreher to do my makeup, as well as my bridesmaids and mother, for my wedding day, and the whole process was a breeze. Astrid was super quick to answer emails and questions, and put me at ease as soon as I met her. I did a trial run in her home studio and it was so much fun! She really listened to what I wanted and I didn't feel at all uncomfortable making suggestions and changes along the way as she did my makeup. On my wedding day she did an incredible job, I felt perfectly polished, and my makeup lasted well beyond twelve hours. We all felt that Astrid was totally dedicated to making us feel beautiful and comfortable in our makeup, and everyone looked lovely the whole day. She was a delight, and I hope I have some other fancy event in the future so I can ask her to do my makeup again!

I have a hair dresser there who is related to a friend of mine. Her name is Cassie. Cassie welcomes…read moreto her salon and treats me very well. Yes, I pay a bit more for my short hair to be styled but she really knows how to "cut" thin, fine and graying hair. Cost is reasonable and I also tip her as she is good. And the reception welcomes me and thanks me when I leave. Overall, I have been to another salon in Edmonton and I will say I will never go back. Plus I get to hug my hair dresser. Pricing for products is a bit higher than my budget but I get good options and will buy when I have finances. They carry a complete line of Bumble and Bumble products. Overall, my favorite place to get my hair done and also service with a smile and kindness. I love my salon in Old Strathcona.

We were walking through Fringe on the weekend and noticed a sign outside Mousy Brown's that said…read morethey now had a barbershop - but the kicker is that it's a walk in barbershop that is pay what you will! In a fancy-ish looking place, we had to ask, but yes, that's their philosophy. I wish they'd do it for women too, but alas. Now, you don't get a fancy wash/head massage or anything, but you do get to choose a cut or shave and that's it. We had to wait for a bit, so we went for a drink and came back. My friend wanted something pretty drastic (because YOLO, right?) and after a consultation, the stylist got to work (I'm really sorry I didn't catch her name, but I believe she is the only one doing the barbershop cuts for now since they just started this service last week). He got a great cut, and we learned that the salon was doing this as a way to give back to the community and to expand their clientele. Love when businesses care! Would highly recommend if you're a guy and looking for a cut to check them out.
