She also helped me overcome some scalp issues, all while maintaining a professional manner and taking care to keep the conversation quiet as to not embarrass me in front of other clients. She is very easy to approach and will give you a great haircut. The studio is small but it is very well maintained. It is always clean, the decor is beautiful, and the salon chairs are comfortable. During my most recent appointment with Angelena, there were some COVID-19 measures put in place. I was told to come in with my hair washed and dried, and was temperature checked at the door. I was given a dry haircut, which still came out looking great. Overall I would highly recommend this salon, especially Angelena!

I loved working with Jessie for hair and makeup before both my maternity and newborn photoshoots! I…read morewas honestly really anxious at first because every time I've had my makeup done professionally in the past, there was always something that bothered me. It was either super cakey, the makeup style didn't suit me, or the foundation/eyeshadow shades didn't match my skin tone at all. But Jessie did an amazing job and I was actually pleasantly surprised that there was nothing I was upset about LOL. I was also really impressed by how quickly Jessie works! Usually just my hair alone can take someone an hour to complete, but Jessie always has both my hair and makeup done within about 75 minutes. She's also very prompt with her arrival, if not a little early, which I always appreciate because it means I'm completely ready with plenty of time before my photoshoots begin. I had such a great experience working with her both times and am looking forward to working with her again for future photoshoots!

Her team was also exceptional and highly skilled, and everyone helped create such a calm and enjoyable getting-ready experience on the wedding day.

MY QUEEN B. My…read morerelationship with Bianca goes back to when my girlfriend recommended me to get some color at Sun Trenz for the summer (http://www.yelp.com/biz/sun-trenz-san-bruno-2#hrid:5DkqcF5VGFhHsGsvQqHTTA) To summarize, since day one, Bianca has given me nothing but honest recommendations in terms of how long to go into tanning, how to prevent burning, what lotions to try, etc. and I trust her with all beauty questions. I've seen photos of the make up she's done on others but I've never had an opportunity to go to anything special to get my makeup done. Well, lucky me. I had a last minute invite to a wedding and Bianca was down to do my make-up, schedule the day before. Can you say AMAZING? I was super excited and nervous at the same time because it's so hard to find a non-Asian MUA to do Asian make-up. You think I'm kidding but I'm not. I've had my make-up done by many make-up artists who I've seen do a great job on other faces but not on Asians. WELL, I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS. Bianca was well-prepared for the make up session, I didn't have to bring anything at all. And let me tell you, she made my face flawless and the way she contoured and worked with my facial structure -- I was very impressed. I couldn't stop staring at myself for the longest time :DDD We also did a spray tan the day before which gave me a nice summer bronze for the evening. We actually forgot a spot during my session but she recalled later and told me to come back and get it done again. Uhhhh-mazing, right? Who does that? And another client who had come in before me was asking to do a spray tan right after a regular tan and Bianca told her it wasn't a good idea because of the lotion and all and I just appreciate great customer service like B's. She could've made extra money there and then but she had the customer's interest at heart. Oh, and I got so many compliments on my make-up, you don't even know. Bianca is for sure my go-to gal for any future events. Love her!

Not only did it hurt like a mofo cuz she cut me too deep even though I was bleeding profusely but the results were below expectations considering her highly rated reviews. I was left w/ uneven areas and patchy areas. Melody was meticulous in both her prep and after care instructions that made me feel good about going into our session. She assured me that my prior experience was out of the norm and worked to make corrections to even out my brows. I also didn't feel the traumatic slicing pain like I did w/ the other artist nor was I excessively bleeding everywhere. She's also easy to chat w/ which made me feel at ease.

Before starting, I clearly explained to Chris that with my hair texture, blow drying alone would not be sufficient and that a flat iron was necessary. Despite this, he disregarded my concern and only blow dried my hair. On top of that, he left midway through the appointment to get something to eat, which was very unprofessional. Thankfully, Sam stepped in to help. She straightened my roots and curled my hair, and she did a great job fixing what she could. However, since the rest of my hair was never properly flat ironed, it became curly and frizzy again shortly after I arrived at my event. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience. Long story short, Marissa reached out to me, saying the manager keilani will reach out to me and make it right, never heard from anyone and when I attempted to reach out crickets.

She's the only one I trust to touch my brows! :) I tried going to other brow artists just because I moved to another state and I didn't have the liberty to fly every month to have my brows done in the West Coast from the Midwest. I was always skeptical of other people touching my brows. I know it will grow out anyway in a couple of weeks, but still. Helenette has this special touch to have your brows on fleek. I'm so happy that I can always go to her now with me being back in the Bay Area. It's actually one of the things I missed living in another state. Because of course, there's only one Helenette! ;) I love this girl so much, that I did recommend her services and expertise to one of my friends when she got married 3 years ago.
