What can I say about Shaddy? From the moment she did my bridal makeup trial, I knew I had chosen…read morethe right person. What I didn't realize at the time was that I wasn't just hiring a makeup artist; I was gaining an all-in-one wedding coordinator, a calming presence, and a true professional. Shaddy not only created a flawless look for me in my white dress and did stunning work on my bridesmaids, but she also stayed with me through two outfit changes, doing touch-ups each time to make sure everything was perfect. When my hairstylist left early, she stepped in and helped fix my hair. She even helped my mum and bridesmaids with their outfits, going above and beyond in every possible way. I honestly can't overstate the level of dedication, experience, and heart Shaddy brought to my wedding day. This review doesn't do justice to how incredible she is, not just as a makeup artist but as a person. If you're considering her for bridal or non-bridal makeup, look no further; you've found an absolute gem.

Brooke took her time, was thorough with the process of going through my information and what she was going to be doing. She answered all my questions and let me know what she was doing with each step while my eyes were closed. She made me feel very comfortable and with this experience I don't see me ever wanting to go "try out" any other lash techs as she was so phenomenal there would be no need to. Her studio was very clean, everything was wiped down as it should be and just overall a very professional and great experience. I definitely would highly recommend Brooke for any of the services she provides and especially for a lash lift!! Thank you Brooke!

(and I didn't save any money anyway) Anywho- Nikki's masterful color knowledge and skill has totally turned my life around. I know seems like an exaggeration but starting the day happy with your reflection makes a HUGE difference! If you're like me, with fine straight hair, Nikki also had mad skills with scissors. I have had a variety of styles from short to long and she always made me look and feel fabulous. (Unlike many other stylists) I'm heading into retirement age so you know I've been to a LOT of salons. Not only does Nikki have knowledge and skills, she has a team of stylists on par and shares her expertise most generously. Soon, I will treat myself to a makeup session. Nikki does hair and makeup for bridal parties and special events. Thanks Nikki, you, and your team, are the best!!! Also they are at a new location on Winchester Ave. - the most comfortable shampoo bowl I have ever experienced, sometimes it's the little things

Had a make up session for a photoshoot with kim in the beginning of May and truly enjoyed it…read more Kim was super friendly and fun to talk to. It was such a chill vibe throughout my appointment. She did a great job to beautify my aging face and her pricing was reasonable, this is after comparing a good number of makeup artists in the DMV area. She also did big curls on my hair, it was so simple but gorgeous, even my photographer complimented on it. The only thing i was slight not happy with is that towards the end of the photoshoot, the corner of one of my fake eyelashes started to coming off. But since it didn't affect the photoshoot so I am ok with it. Maybe next time, a bit more glue for the corner area My overall experience with Kim was a 5 star & highly recommended by @WineDinenVacay

She had arrived early (big plus), and so did I, so I was able to start 10 minutes ahead of schedule so that she'd have a little more time to work on me (bigger plus). She has an extensive collection of makeup that filled the entire table. The process went very flawlessly. She was amazing at creating a smokey eye to match our dark purple bridesmaid dresses. At the end of the session, she attached the fake eyelashes to finish the look. She finished on time for the next candidate! After our off-site outdoor photo session, she was also able to touch us up before prepping to walk down the aisle! When I got approached by my friends at cocktail hour, both the females and males all showered me with compliments on a fabulous makeup job by Kim. I couldn't be more proud of making the decision to go with Kim and get my makeup professionally done! Overall, I was extremely satisfied with the job, and would recommend her to anyone wanting to look and feel gorgeous in their photos and through out the evening!

I can't say enough good things about Addi! I found her online and was blown away by her portfolio…read moreand great reviews, and immediately knew I wanted her to do my makeup for my engagement pictures. Some highlights: 1) I emailed her on Tuesday and my pics were on Sunday. Not only did she give me an appointment on such short notice, she is also 39 weeks pregnant! I couldn't believe she was willing to do my makeup the weekend before her baby is due. She is so passionate about her job and truly cares about her clients, even if she's never met you before. 2) I never wear makeup so I was pretty nervous about how it would turn out. Addi took time to listen to what I was looking for and we talked about some of my previous (bad) experiences with makeup so that she also knew what I didn't want. Throughout the session, she continuously asked me how I felt and always made sure I was comfortable with the way it looked. Addi is the perfect makeup artist for women who don't usually get their makeup done or are a bit nervous about wearing full makeup. 3) Her studio is adorable, really clean and organized, and all her products are top of the line. 4) She is so sweet and really easy to talk to. My makeup, including eye lashes, took a little over an hour but the time flew by because we were chatting away. She even offered to run into her house and get me an umbrella since it was pouring out. Addi is truly an incredible makeup artist, and I left feeling comfortable in my own skin. People kept telling me how great of a job Addi did enhancing my natural beauty, which is exactly what I was looking for. I got a sneak peak of my engagement pictures and my makeup looks amazing. I can't wait to book Addi for future events, and I have my fingers crossed she'll be available to do my makeup on my wedding day. :)
