    I worked with Pati at Diem Angie for my wedding hair and makeup, and she was amazing. I wanted soft…read moreglam, natural makeup with a half up/half down hairstyle, and she nailed exactly what I was picturing. She made me feel so beautiful and confident all day - exactly how you want to feel on your wedding day. She also did a great job with my mom and mother-in-law's makeup and hair. My lips were unfortunately a bit dry and peeling the morning of, but Pati used some sort of lip scrub and smoothed it right out. I was also worried about ruining my makeup since I knew I'd be crying during our private vows, but it stayed completely intact through all the tears. I was so impressed! If you're looking for someone talented who really listens to what you want and whose work actually lasts, I highly recommend Pati at Diem Angie!

I didn't even do a trial due to circumstance (I was arriving in town two days before the wedding), but everything turned out perfect. I was paired with Heather who was SO sweet. She was quick, kind, on time, and just genuinely a joy to work with. Everyone looked amazing; she pulled my vision for my wedding look right out of my head. I'm so grateful for her being a part of my special day and I would love the opportunity to get glammed by her again.

    I was overdue to update my headshots, and a colleague recommended I get some professional grooming…read moredone beforehand so I'd actually like the photos. A quick search led me to goldplaited and their male grooming package, which seemed exactly like what I needed. I was looking for something really subtle and natural--just a more polished version of myself--and they nailed it. They took the time to understand the look I was going for and didn't rush the process at all. They also checked in along the way to make sure everything felt right, which I appreciated. Nothing felt overdone, but it made a noticeable difference once I got in front of the camera. I felt a lot more confident going into the shoot, and the photos turned out better than I expected. Super professional, easy to work with, and you can tell they care about getting it right. Really glad I found them.

    I'm always nervous about having my makeup done professionally because I often feel like the result…read moremakes me look like a completely different person. I shared that concern beforehand. At first, I thought the makeup looked nice, but once I had more time to look at it, I realized my eyes appeared much smaller and the overall look made me seem older than I am. Before the appointment, they asked me to send a reference photo of the style I wanted. I did, and they upgraded the package I had originally selected. However, it seemed like no one ever looked at the photo, because neither the makeup artist nor the hairstylist mentioned it or asked about it during the appointment. The makeup in my reference photo featured light colors, but the artist immediately started using much darker tones, even though I was already wearing my dress, which was not dark and would have paired better with a lighter look. As for my hair, the back looked beautiful. However, despite showing a picture of the hairstyle I wanted, the front initially looked nothing like the reference and, honestly, looked quite bad. Fortunately, some adjustments were made later, but I was disappointed that my preferences did not seem to be considered from the beginning.

    Our wedding was almost 1 month ago, and I've been trying for weeks to find the appropriate words…read morethat convey the gratitude I have for Joanna (Joanna B. Artistry). Joanna is one of a kind, extremely personable and a true professional in the industry. Our original wedding date was set for 8/15/20 and getting engaged less than a year before, I was in a rush to lock in my team of vendors. I reached out to a friend who sent me multiple MUA suggestions, one being Joanna, as my friend was a bridesmaid in a recent wedding of hers. Joanna was available for my date and after chatting on the phone I quickly locked her in for myself plus 8 bridesmaids, my mom and future mother in law. We did my initial makeup trial in December 2020 and I was the bride that brought a few inspiration photos but didn't really give much direction to the look I was going for. Joanna was patient, confident and so skilled that she knew what look would complement my features/skin tone and went to work. She delivered A+ bridal glam while still having me look like my natural self, false lashes and all. She even updated my look right then after the trial by adding a red lip for my engagement shoot that afternoon, which was such a sweet and unexpected gesture. Fast forward to spring 2020, pandemic in full swing and a new wedding date of 6/26/21. Joanna stuck with me through all the many changes, didn't take advantage of the situation by adding contract addendum fees and even offered a Black Friday deal for rehearsal dinner glam for her brides. She stayed in touch, checked in and made me feel confident and excited for our new wedding date. Joanna also stayed on top of beauty and makeup trends while events were all cancelled or postponed during the spring. Her Instagram is my favorite as she shares honest opinions/reviews about both skin and makeup products. I also booked another make up session for round 2 engagement photos with Joanna that October and it's true talent when you can create multiple looks on the same person for different occasions. On the wedding day, Joanna brought an assistant with her (as planned) for our wedding day as we had 11 people total and her assistant was top of the line talent as well. My whole bridal party felt beautiful and our makeup lasted the entire night without even needing to touch up (although Joanna provides her brides with a generous touch up kit, just in case). It's also important to note that it was raining sideways and extremely humid, but looking at the bridal party, you'd never know judging by our long lasting glam. I highly recommend getting your makeup done for the rehearsal as well as I wish there was a recording of my reaction when Joanna showed me the "finished product" in the mirror. I was SO excited and after already having 2 trials, having one the day before the wedding made me confident that I would feel like my best self on the biggest day of my life and let me tell you, I did. I have never felt so beautiful in my entire life. I have also never seen my mom look so gorgeous and it made me happy that she was so happy! I call Joanna a wizard because she's casually chatting with you, so calm, focused and voila! hands you the mirror and it's truly a natural work of art. I'm already trying to think of reasons why I need my makeup professionally done to utilize Joanna again. I could not recommend anyone better and trust you are in GREAT hands with the loveliest of professionals, Joanna B. Artistry. Photos by @annkamphoto

    I am absolutely ecstatic to add to the extensive list of rave reviews about Joanna. First, she is…read moreextremely talented - my bridesmaids, mother, and mother in law, looked flawless for the entire day and night. She crushes everything from a natural to glam look, and you will still look like "yourself". Second, she uses the best products and has excellent recommendations - I now have a completely updated skincare and make-up routine. Third, she is extremely responsive and organized. She will follow-up with you after your trial to see what worked and what did not - and she will remember all of those details on your wedding day months later. We all felt absolutely beautiful and confident, and I took pride in giving my bridesmaids the "gift" of Joanna!

Since we live out of town, I never had the chance to do a trial run. But after showing her a few inspiration photos the night before, she completely understood the vision and executed it flawlessly. Not only did everyone look incredible, she was so efficient and organized throughout the morning. She kept everything running perfectly on schedule without ever making anyone feel rushed. In fact, my mother-in-law was so impressed with everyone's makeup that Chyla was even able to squeeze her in for a service at the last minute, which she was thrilled about. Beyond her talent, Chyla was calm, warm, and such a positive presence to have around on the wedding morning. She made the entire experience feel easy and fun. I could not have been happier and would recommend her to anyone looking for a truly talented wedding hair and makeup artist.

    Chyla is YOUR GO TO ARTIST for ANY special events make up and hair needs!…read more I reached out to Chyla 6 days before our wedding (very last minute!) to treat myself & the important women in my life to having our hair & make up done! From the very first phone call, to the many questions I had and the wonderful experience of having her style our hair and do our make up, I was impressed with Chyla's professionalism, warmth and her genuine bubbly personality. She is not only worth EVERY PENNY, Chyla is a joy to work with! I was immediately drawn to Chyla's understanding of our needs, her kindness, passion for what she does; & her clear expectations for the day! She is so proactive, genuine and very responsive with communication. Within hours of connecting, Chyla provided me with a contract, set expectations & a wedding day schedule! She was so very patient when addressing my questions, & some of our last minute changes! On our wedding day, Chyla showed up on time, was so sweet and friendly towards all of us & her highly skilled artistry spoke for itself! We all wanted a softer and more natural look and she executed our vision perfectly! I had never felt so beautiful- polished & put together! The products she used were so light and I felt like I was not wearing any make up at all and received so many compliments! My daughters, best friend, mother and sister in law all were very happy with their hair and make up too! We are all very thankful to have Chyla help us glow & radiate on our special day! Chyla is amazing and we loved how she SPARKLES & adds so much beauty, confidence, creativity, & positive energy to the world! Thank you Chyla for making us look and feel so elegant and beautiful!
