Kristen made me feel right at home from her emails to trial hair and make up, even helped me stand up to my MIL, to a last minute hair cut to my actual wedding day.

In the meanwhile, Kristen I'll miss you! x

I have never heard such a ridiculous reason to not see someone for a ten-minute appointment.

Upon arrival I was greeted and waited patiently as she finished up another client. Although we were running a little behind, I had no worries. The level of exceptional service outweighed a few extra minutes! Once we were finished, I was totally and completely satisfied. I received many compliments throughout the evening while promoting my new go to MUA!

I cycle through the process of growing my hair out and chopping it off to donate, and it had…read morereached that time for a haircut right when I moved to St. Louis. Even before moving, I had done pretty extensive research for a trustworthy hair stylist in anticipation and Studio 89 was one of the top picks; even after monitoring my options over the span of a month, it remained the best. I tried to make an appointment online but had some technical issue so I called instead. This was all done the morning of, and yet they were able to have me come in later that afternoon. It's a clean, small space but it's got everything you can imagine. There's plenty of parking in front of the salon. Tiffany was my stylist, and I was warned that she was going to charge more than the other stylists due to her experience (note -- all stylists charge differently based on this). As a Californian who has paid way too much for the simplest of cuts, I can genuinely say Tiffany's surcharge was 1000% worth it. She was so kind and personable, and that really made the experience. She gave me her honest thoughts and was very communicative throughout the process. She really gave me the exact hairstyle I asked for after barely flashing her a photo, and I'm so endlessly impressed! Despite constantly cycling through short hair, I've actually never liked myself in it very much. However, Tiffany's work allowed me to feel more confident in rocking a short cut than I've ever felt! I've received tons of genuine compliments on her work, and I feel so lucky to have met her. Tiffany -- thanks for the sushi recs and candid conversation, and for being my first friend in St. Louis!

I have had a few different stylists as well Nicole, Sabrina and Tiffany and they are all pretty attentive stylist. They double checked with me multiple times throughout the service whether it was cut or color. The salon is neat and tidy.

The salon is based on appointments only so would highly recommend making an appointment prior to visiting.

My first session with XOXO Alice was in 2018; it was purchased as a wedding gift for my husband. I…read morehad lost 100 pounds over the course of our relationship and was super nervous to have boudoir photos done because of how embarrassed I was by the loose skin that I had all over my body. I imagined options for outfits and poses would be very limited, and I would spend the whole time nervous as heck and hating myself. The super detailed instructions to prepare for the session were the first thing to set my mind at ease. I was glad to know I only had to personally bring SOME of the outfits I wanted to wear but that there was a full wardrobe of varying sizes waiting for me. I was greeted on the morning of the shoot by one of her kitty cats, which immediately made me feel more at ease. The conversation held between myself, Alecia, and the make-up artist that morning to determine the kind of photos we wanted to shoot was eye-opening and very information, though I felt like a shy newbie not having the answer on-hand when I showed up. Alecia used creative methods to get me the best shots possible and made me feel more at ease throughout the course of the day by cracking jokes to make me laugh and just have general conversation about shared interests (specifically pet birds). By the end of the day, I had come to love how my body was portrayed in a way I never knew was possible. The directions she gave throughout the shoot were kind and specific so that she got the exact bodily post and expression that she needed. My husband could not have been happier with the photos, and I will always cherish the self-esteem boost I left with. The second shoot I had was vastly different than my first. It took place in early 2022 while I was still scared witless about catching COVID-19. She had a process in place requiring each client to take a rapid test in their car prior to the session to confirm a negative result. This made me feel much safer considering she was the first person  outside my family and close friends that I would spend a day around maskless since the pandemic began.  Some relevant background information includes something that developed over the course of time since the initial photoshoot: this included the onset of chronic (nearly constant) pain in my neck, shoulders, and upper and lower back that is greatly flared by too much motion of my joints that were weakened by illness and major surgery recovery. I was nervous as all get-out to reach out to Alecia to see if I could request a session (via one of her model-calls on her Facebook page) thinking that I would be too hard to work with due to my physical limitations. Remembering how much I had to move or bend during the first session, I thought it would be impossible to have a similar experience again. My weak and painful body had driven me to hatred and depression because my body had all but given up on me. I had also put on a teensy bit of weight due to my inability to exercise. Alecia assured me that she could work with me to show me that my body wasn't to be hated and was confident that she could use feedback given by myself during the session to ensure she didn't cause an excess of pain. She ended up discussing my changing life situation while makeup and hair were being handled. Not only did she make me feel like a "normal" person regardless of my illnesses and pain, she made sure I knew that she saw me as no less of a woman or model. She did a lot of moving and shifting to accommodate my decreased abilities of motion and took my inability to stand for long periods of count all into ability when choosing the outfits and poses. We even made a sort of silly game out of taking water breaks since I am required to drink far more water than most people; she was sure to take a water break whenever I did and made sure I ate when I needed to. I was so shocked by the resulting images and felt like she helped me along the first step of accepting my new disability by taking myself for how I am and not just hating my own existence. I know this may seem like a little much to come out of a boudoir photography session, but she has a magical way of seeing everyone she photographs the way they need to be and deserve to be seen. I am already saving up for my next photo shoot! The first one was for my significant other, but all additional ones are purely for me!

I had the worst experience with this company. I am not sure if they are just unprofessional or…read moremalicious. I went to them because I had a groupon deal for professional photographs. I finally did get them to take my picture but they never gave me the shots or a link to the shots. I told them that I was on a time crunch to receive the pictures and they told me that I could get them in the next day or so. It is almost three weeks later and I have not received anything but a one line email saying that the link was going up that night, which I received over a week ago. They are impossible to get in contact with and they will take your money without giving you anything. I have called them over 8 times and never receive a return call. I have emailed them at least three times. This was my worst experience with a business. I cannot believe that they still have their doors open. I will update you if and when I hear back from then. I will be reporting them to the BBB if I do not get money or photos. Group on dropped them, likely due to similar shenanigans that they pulled with me. I am highly disappointed. DO NOT RISK IT! You will not get what you pay for with these people.
