My husband and I were planning a formal party for a milestone anniversary and I was struggling to…read morefind someone to come to my hotel to do my hair and makeup. It seemed that most artists either had outrageous prices, wouldn't travel, or did either hair or makeup but not both. I found Emilie on Yelp and luckily she responded back quickly letting me know she was available and giving me her pricing. Pricing for services and travel was reasonable as compared to others I had spoken with. She asked for any photos of styles I wanted. I sent a photo for hair, and just a vague description for makeup. Anyway, when she came to our suite, she brought all of her equipment with her, including power strips, which was great, as our hotel was a bit challenged with outlets. Anyway, I really like how my hair and makeup came out. She had me check a mirror periodically to ensure that I was happy. She also gave me a small kit so I could retouch my lips throughout the evening. Another thing is that she was very professional and the craziness of our hotel suite didn't interrupt her focus. She kept a friendly chatter with everyone throughout. My husband, friends, family, and my dog were all in and out of the hotel suite throughout the process. All in all, I am very happy with Emilie, and would recommend her for your hair and makeup needs.

I needed a makeup artist to come to a salon to apply makeup for a young lady who was about to be proposed to! Emilie worked in tandem with a hair stylist to get her ready.

LIW is a one woman show owned by Bekah Salazar. A very intelligent and beautiful young women who…read morehas such a talent for not only hair, cosmetics but also decor. What catches most of our attention right off the bat is the lovely vintage decor that is LIW. Pink pastel and white striped walls, a vintage vanity you sit in front of and admire as you are pampered along with plenty of other trinkets and quaint furniture. Bekah makes your visit with her personal by great conversation, a warm smile and hospitality. She offers tea, coffee and water along with little cookies in a tea cup and saucer. You truly feel like a lady when you are here. She listens to you. In my experience, many women I see for my hair listen but don't listen at the same time ya feel me? She cares and it shows in the effort she puts into her business and when you speak to her. I visit for hair cuts and to get color done and have always left feeling radiant and beautiful. I am a hard girl to please because I am so protective with my hair and have left so many salons in tears because I didn't receive what I wanted. Those days are over. As I've gotten older I've learned that "good work ain't cheap and cheap work ain't good." I apply that rule of thumb when it comes to hair and tattoo services. I break $100 + when I come here and get a cut and color done ( I have a a lot of hair) but regardless you get what you pay for and I will bust my tail and save my pennies to come here. My first visit Bekah was even kind enough to let me get my hair done with her even though my job was late depositing my money to my account and I was broke. I got there assuming my money would be there like it is every Wednesday and my Account had $5 dollars in it when I checked. Embarrassed, before she even sat me down I told her I had to leave and we had to reschedule Because I didn't get paid on time. She said it was fine and I could pay her the next day. I couldn't believe it. My money came in the next day and she charged it. That was the nicest thing ever. I will continue to do my business here with LIW and suggest you ladies looking for a new place to give Bekah a call and set up a Appointment you won't be sorry.

Once my balayage grew out, I booked an appointment with Jenny for a touch-up, and right away we talked about what she could do for my hair. Rather than just touching up my existing balayage, she listened to my desire to go blonder and did an AMAZING job. The pricing at this salon is similar to other salons in the area (if not slightly less expensive considering the level of blonde I got done). Plus, Jenny (and the surrounding stylists) made the whole experience a fun one. They included me in conversations, played good music, and treated me like they would a friend. The parking situation is a bit tricky because there is only two hour parking with meters outside the salon. So, I had to move my car once so that I wouldn't get a ticket. When Jenny was finishing up styling my hair, I noticed my second parking was about to expire. Another stylist, Niki, immediately went out to where my car was and graciously paid for another hour (even though I didn't need that much time) so that I wouldn't get a ticket. I know the meter didn't cost much, but found that to be really generous and showed the salon's commitment to taking care of their customers. All in all, I had a great time and will be going back in the future!

Just got married this past Saturday and Call Me Beautiful was one of my favorite vendors to work…read morewith. In searching for a hair and make-up artist, I came across the wonderful reviews on Yelp. After reviewing their packages and browsing their website and Instagram pages, I knew I had to get in touch with Call Me Beautiful. Immediately after reaching out for an inquiry, Lauren (owner) emailed me and we went back and forth with my vision and what I was looking for. Responsiveness is key to me and Lauren was always timely with her replies. I was looking for a hair and make up team from same company...a one stop shop for services. Unfortunately, no CMB make-up artists were available on my wedding day (6/11/16). Lauren was very understanding about my desire for a hair and make up duo. Although she would be able to deliver on one of my needs for services, she did not push at all. I really loved and appreciated Lauren's honesty and easygoing personality and set up a hair trial. My best friend (matron of honor) accompanied me to my appointment and right from the start, Lauren welcomed us and made us feel very comfortable. I was introduced to my stylist, Tara who was very sweet and easy to talk to. During the trial, I showed pictures of what I was looking for and Tara delivered on my vision. Leaving the trial, I was beyond happy with the outcome of my hair and looked even more forward to my wedding day... Fast forward two and a half months and it is my wedding day. The day before my wedding, I decided to change my hairstyle a bit. Was a little nervous since my trial hair was different, but Tara did her thing. While doing my hair, she would ask questions and also give recommendations. Final product was better than my original vision and better than the picture I showed her. Thank you Tara for glamming me and my girls up on the most important day of my life. We all LOVED our hairstyles and my husband did as well Booking Process: This was by far the easiest transaction with all of my vendors. After letting Lauren know how many girls needed their hair done, she sent over a timeline and contract. Upon booking, 20% is due and the remainder of payment is due one month before wedding. Venmo (electronic payment method similar to PayPal) requests were sent by Lauren, which made the transactions super easy. Quick click and payment was deducted from my account and processed. The contracts also already include gratuity charge, which makes things so much easier. I ended up adding two girls after final payment was made and Lauren revised the timeline and again sent over a Venmo request. So easy and seamless! The timeline was perfectly set. My photographer wanted myself and bridal party all done by 1 PM. Lauren noted this and constructed my timeline accordingly. Lauren... I can't thank you enough for all of your help on my wedding day and for linking me and my girls up with Tara. We enjoyed her company and were BEYOND satisfied with our hairstyles. The first bridesmaid had a 6:00 AM appointment and when our event concluded at 11:00 PM, our hairstyles were still intact...all of us. If you are looking for a professional and honest business along with an easy and seamless process when booking hair and/or make-up services, Call Me Beautiful has my vote. Thank you again ladies...

All four artists were fantastic and friendly and a great addition to my wedding day. Everyone looked stunning!!!

She listened to my wants and needs and I came out with the perfect haircut. The place is cute with open windows so you can people watch. My only bummer was parking.

I ended up parking on one of the side streets north of Rosencrans which I recommend. There isn't a lot of parking south of this location really unless you want to pay to be in the big harbor lot. All in all would definitely recommend!
