    I'm going to start off by admitting I have no idea how to do my make up. I own mascara and and eyeliner and that's it. When I know I need to go to an event and be dressed up, I'm immediately filled with a sense of impending doom because I need to wear make up that I'm so incapable of putting on. Sparkle bar was close by and had stellar reviews so with high hopes, I stopped by. After looking through reviews, I saw a MUA that kept coming up, Charlee. I cannot even begin to describe how incredibly gifted and talented she is. Just when I thought the make up couldn't get any more beautiful, it did! I got so many compliments on my make up and I've been back a few times. If you have an event you need to get camera ready for, Charlee will make you look and feel like an absolute goddess. Another huge plus is she's punctual, professional, and overall just really enjoyable to get your make up done by.

    I had a photoshoot for LinkedIn headshots and heading out for the night afterwards. My usual makeup artist was booked so I decided to checkout The Sparkle Bar. I'm super picky with makeup as a Black woman not everyone can do our makeup. The Sparkle Bar did the damn thing. The environment is super cute and clean. Everyone was welcoming and truly appreciated their attention to hygiene and cleanliness. I got the opportunity to work with Charlee and to say she is talented isn't enough. The makeup fitted my style. A little flair and easily transition from day to night. This was self care as the environment really provides you a place to enjoy being pampered. I highly recommend this place.

    This review is long over-do but better late then never. I've been to Sparkle bar twice and each time the artists go above and beyond to making you feel like an absolute queen. They take their time and listen to your vision. I appreciate them Especially last year before my wedding day making me feel beautiful for my rehearsal dinner. Hoping to have a special occasion to be back soon again or just a me day! You all are awesome!

    Late late into the night -- my makeup lasted even with rain !

    Nothing less than spectacular is the service and the way I feel when I leave The Sparkle Bar! This has become so much more than a 'service' to me; It's become a place where I feel I am coming to hang with my friends while they do my face and we chat! LITERALLY I have that much fun! This is the season of glitz and glam and this year I made my booking a little more on the ready than last time I needed help with my aging plain girl face. I do not love trying to hide the flaws and getting ready for parties the way I used to when I was a bunch of years younger for one, I just don't know how and for TWO I just can't do it as well as the Sparkle team can! PLUS, I have so much fun now coming in and chatting with Alex and Charlee and Eli and seeing the team of boss babes and how they have grown so much in the past years ! This studio has gone from being amazing to even more awesome! I love it so much and I love how I feel each time I come in and when I leave here. I usually always get the , "Camera Ready" service and add lashes for $20 , ( and yes, to the one star review that said she didn't see that as noted.. IT does state that in the appointment when you book it or if you add it when getting your face done, it is said to you.. please be responsible when buying for the love of all glitz and glam!) Today, I asked Charlee if I could just do more neutral tones and be a little more understated on my face than in the past.. That was a suggestion of , "how about the "Fresh Face". I had come in this time with a literal bare face, because I usually just do that when at home anyway or fresh from the gym unless I am traveling for work and as I said, I don't enjoy a ton of makeup on my face anymore! I have taken a great deal of care in my skin over the past two years , again due to aging, and thankfully I believe it's paid off, because I was able to get away with a minimal 'fresh face' look and with the lashes Charlee did, I felt the look just 'popped'! I went home; popped on my outfit ; flat ironed my hair and was at our party with in 90 minutes of leaving and this look lasted through out the event and into the wee hours of the am aka the 'after party' where some of my co-workers met with my husband's and well, that is just another story! The makeup lasted. My feet in red bottoms-- well, my Sparkle Bar babes can not solve all the miracles of the holiday season! I do love the new studio. This team is always so fun! They listen to what you want on your face! You are always met with the request of pressed juice; bottled water; tea. Everyone here is safe and sanitary. We have not been out of the pandemic that long.. although most of the world seems to have forgotten that, it is very safe here and the team here still takes it seriously for those of us that have not forgotten it! They want you safe and they want to stay safe too-- wash those hands when you enter. The products they use are always the best: YSL; Dior; Chanel; MAC etc. the parking in the back was super easy too this time. Alex and I spoke about this before as I truly have stressed about the parking situation on the weekends in Old Town! IYKYK! The Sparkle Bar does headshots now and since I loathe my new one that my company just did at a recent conference, that will my next visit to what I deem 'my glam squad' ! Trust me .. this is the place for what you need if you are like me and just feel that make up and getting glam is a bit of a chore and a bit more energy than one needs to be pretty .. So here is a million and five kisses to Alex ; Charlee; Eli and her team of absolute fabulous babes for making me , ( and sometimes my girls!) feel so amazing! xoxo

    I love the makeup style. The stylist did an amazing job. She was great and the atmosphere was amazing.

    Her working her magic!

    If you need your make up done for something important I HIGHLY recommend hiring Charlie Torres from Sparkle Bar. Not only is she incredibly talented, she has excellent customer service. She really listens to what you want and puts in so much love and effort. She is completely chill and puts you at ease and you feel so safe in her hands. You couldn't find a more talented make up artist anywhere. Thank you Sparkle Bar for giving me the gift of Charlie!

    My makeup was on point for my friends wedding. The makeup artist really knew what I was looking for and nailed it. I was so happy. She was awesome. I definitely recommend this place. My artist was polite, fun, made me feel relaxed and comfortable when it came to do my eyes. I tend to be sensitive and my eyes water really easily.

    Successful shoot y'all.

    I'm an Interior Designer based out of the East Bay Area and design & travel for projects across the United States. I designed an AirBnb called the Prickly Pear for an amazing client named Chelsey Kenney. My family and I were visiting it for a week and I really wanted to do a last minute branding and family photo shoot and go for a professional look but I struggled to find a makeup artist. Eli to the rescue y'all! He got me in last minute and came in early for me. Him and his southern charm took care of my face all over the place. I really loved working with him. He was so sweet, funny and supportive, walking me through with my silly inexperience. Love him. Love the Sparkle Bar!! Also, if you're looking for a photographer Laura Waugh was amazing behind the camera and so lovely to work with.

    Eli was amazing! Very talented and made sure makeup fit my personality and the event style. I had a lot of fun and will be back

I had my wedding trial in January, which I liked very much. I had a question for my artist whom I texted a week before my wedding (end of March) to ask, only to find out that she no longer worked for the company and left mid-February. Neither my planner or I were informed of this, or were re-booked a trial with a new artist, which I found completely unacceptable. After calling this out, Makiaj booked me a re-trial on the Thursday before my wedding. This caused me a TON of stress on my wedding week, which could have been easily avoided. Trials are meant to be used to make changes, which if this was done on my wedding day, would have caused delays in the wedding day schedule. My new artist said she had my on her schedule mid-February, but Makiaj just didn't schedule a re-trial for me. I am still giving Makiaj 2 stars because their master artists (the artists for the brides) are extremely talented. Shout out to Jada, who's foundation and skin work is AMAZING!

    Love this Salon in Scottsdale!…read more First of all, this place is so cute and in old town Scottsdale, so good location. Clean and cozy interior. My hairdresser Chloe is AMAZING! I'm not a reviewing hair salon person, but I had to this time. She walked me through what she's going to do, asked me questions about what hairstyle/color I'd like and also pricing, which was straightforward and clear! I've always wanted to go cool medium light blonde with light blonde parts, other hairdressers made me go back 2-3 times and still didn't or couldn't get me the color I wanted, but Chloe did it on my first visit. She told me it might not as bright as I wanted, but she did it and still took care of my hairs. I'll definitely come back and I'm confident Chloe's gonna make my hairstyle/color look amazing!

Once I sat down appeared lovely Kiara, she brought me to her station.. started the consultation, had me pick a Chakra card to relax me & gave me a deep neck massage before even walking me over to wash my hair! Yes, she had me sold I'm loving it... she's either gotta mess my extremely long hair up or she just made herself a regular client... lol!! Okay now I'm anticipating the shampoo & conditioning.... You're correct no complaints there either, plus because my hair is so long I got to sit in that chair a little longer, lol!! Kiara walked me over & got to work, I was wanting some long curtain bangs with layers throughout to add fullness... she did exactly as I requested & began styling with the dryer! Once Kiara was done I told her I loved it, she did everything I wanted... she then even offered to using the curling iron to show me the difference in the style but I told her there's no need to... I'm loving it!! I was so happy to finally have a stylist that did what I was envisioning & not try to talk me into something that I wasn't wanting! Also...FYI, for all you future clients that had stylists destroy your hair because they're inexperienced... look no further, this salon holds their stylists accountable & you as a client sign paperwork prior to your appointment in agreement that if you're not satisfied with your final result the salon will take care of you within the time frame window in the contract! Love it & I can't wait until my next appointment , I'm so looking forward to it!!

I scheduled a hair and makeup appointment more than a month in advance for my nursing school graduation--an incredibly important milestone for me. I planned my entire day carefully and precisely to ensure everything ran smoothly and on time. While on my way to the appointment, I called to confirm, wanting to make sure everything was set for such a meaningful day. After multiple calls with no answer, I received a text just 30 minutes before my appointment. The message was addressed to the wrong person and stated that my appointment had been canceled. At first, I genuinely thought it was a scam. Unfortunately, it wasn't. Because of the extremely short notice and lack of communication, I was forced to scramble at the last minute. Despite planning meticulously, I arrived late to my graduation and nearly missed the opportunity to walk across the stage. I was only notified of the cancellation because I called to confirm; there was no proactive outreach from the company. Very little professionalism, accountability, or genuine remorse was shown. The stress and disappointment caused on such an important day were completely avoidable. I can only imagine how devastating this would be if it were for an event such as a wedding. Based on my experience, I strongly advise against booking with this company.

From the second I walked into their studio for my hair and makeup trial, they made me feel at ease.

I was so happy with it--I couldn't ever imagine it would all look as good as it did! Not only that, but it all lasted all night! I had never worn lashes before either but they stayed on all night with no issues. It couldn't have been more perfect.
