Makeup in Costa Mesa

“Bonnie is amazing! Her salon is so nice and welcoming. She is super knowledgeable and explains everything she is doing. She has really helped me transform my daily hair routine. I highly recommend coming into her salon. She will change your life!“

“Professional and courteous. Cynthia had some great suggestions about cutting and taking care of my gray hair.“

“Nola did an excellent job! Definitely the star of SAS in there. I'll be coming back for sure.“

“Sweetest ladies work here! I work close by and needed a hair cut, they accommodated me with my crazy schedule. Did a great job and really made the whole experience enjoyable! Def come by here and let them take care of your hair!“

“Izzie is a proactive business owner and consultant! When I moved to Irvine I was in desperate need of a local hair stylist experienced in thick coarse middle eastern texture hair. I made a post on Nextdoor app and Izzie commented right away offering her services and booking was easy and quick. Her consulting style (to me) is honest and modern. She keeps up with the latest styles and what looks good on you. I had an artistic weave done and it was my first time hearing about this type of coloring. Looks like highlights but it's not, it is a very lengthy process only a master of color could achieve. (OH and she also cuts my hair! She gave me some new and solid advice on how to preserve the health of my hair.) Izzie is my go to stylist now for this reason and would highly recommend to anyone who asks!“

“I had such a wonderful experience with Vantha! From the moment I sat in the chair, she made me feel so comfortable and truly listened to what I wanted. The final look was even better than I imagined -- natural, glowing, and perfectly suited to my style (soft snatched look)!The makeup lasted all day, and I got so many compliments! Beyond their incredible talent, Vantha is such a kind and genuine person, which made the whole experience even more special. I can't recommend them enough!“

“I used Vanity Belle for my bridal hair and makeup, as well as for three of my bridesmaids, and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. Amy did my makeup and was absolutely fantastic. I decided to make a few changes from our trial run, and she was incredibly sweet, supportive, and encouraging. I also preferred to do my own eyebrows, and she had no problem with that at all. The final result was stunning—my makeup looked like an elevated version of myself, lasted all day, and I received so many compliments!

Amy is fast, professional, and really attentive to detail. All of my bridesmaids loved their makeup too, and we’re so happy with how everything turned out in our photos.

Denise did my hair, and although she came on board last minute, she was amazing from the very beginning. She listened carefully to what I wanted, gave helpful recommendations, and even offered alternative options when I asked. The final look—with extensions—was beautiful and held up perfectly, even through a breezy beach day.

The Vanity Belle team was also great to work with overall. Most of our communication was via email, and when we needed to change my stylist, Jonathon gave me a call right away to talk through everything. They even allowed me to redo my hair trial at no extra charge and were flexible with updating my day-of timeline.

I truly had a great experience and can’t thank Amy and Denise enough. You both made me feel so confident and beautiful. Highly recommend!“

“Hiring Heather to do hair and makeup for my wedding was one of the best decisions I made! She is so incredibly talented and truly listens to what you want. I was so indecisive when it came to what hair style I wanted to go with and a lot of other companies that I spoke to limited your trial to one style, but Heather made sure we tried all of them (5+) during my trials. I'm so picky when it comes to my hair and makeup but Heather absolutely nailed it day of. I wouldn't have changed a single thing. On top of her talent, Heather is also SO easy to talk to. I felt like I got to know her so well and it was so comforting to see her and get to hang out with her day of. I couldn't recommend her more!!!!“

“Trust this woman. She knows what she’s doing. Her presence is a present and a gift. I was blessed to have her take care of my glam look last minute and she really took her time and was meticulously preparing me to achieve the look and feel of my photoshoot yesterday on Veterans Day. Her energy is amazing. I can’t wait to experience her and hear her podcast. Her vibe is safe and comfortable. I appreciate you SK!“

“Best Salon in OC! Thanks to Faith my hair has never been healthier, stronger, and longer. It's been the most amazing hair journey since I started seeing Faith over 1 year ago. I finally dove into a full highlight after glosses and trims. THANK GOD I did. My hair has never looked better and I feel so confident. Faith is so knowledgeable and does an amazing job of looking at your hair, your wants/needs, and helps you get exactly what you're hoping for. I am so thankful I found Faith, Lotus Salon, and a love for my hair!“

“Lovely salon and was able to get me a last minute appointment. I hadn’t had a haircut in almost a year and left feeling very relaxed, pampered, and refreshed after a crazy day. George topped it off with some awesome curls?“

“Nancy is awesome! She took my hair from disaster to perfection with an easy care strategy moving forward. Thank you Nancy!“

“Flawless Faces is truly AMAZING! I had the best experience from start to finish - from the smooth booking process and user-friendly website to the *pretty-in-pink* salon and the incredibly kind and welcoming team. Carina, the founder, is so sweet and accommodating. Her professionalism, talent, and years of experience really shine through her work. She did my makeup for a concert, and I was so happy with how it turned out — glam, glowy, and exactly what I envisioned! It held up perfectly through hours of singing, dancing, and a long night out, and still looked fresh by the end. It was by far the best makeup service I’ve ever gotten, and I already can’t wait to book again for my next event. Highly recommend Flawless Faces to anyone looking for a top-tier makeup experience in a fun, relaxing environment!“

“Amanda did an amazing job cutting my hair! She was very kind and thorough in explaining what she was doing. I felt very comfortable and I'm really happy with how my hair turned out.“

“I’m 36 and have always had thin brows with not much shape. Recently, I completely lost the ends of my eyebrows and I have been so self conscious about it. I am SO damn happy I was referred to Breanna, I now have bangin’ brows!

She took so much time and care with the shape, color, and overall look. She explained everything she was doing, made me feel totally comfortable, and was incredibly detailed throughout the whole process.

My brows now look amazing and they look natural too! For the first time in my life, I actually have a real brow shape. Her studio is adorable and has such good energy.

I absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for gorgeous brows. I feel like she worked magic on my face and I couldn’t be happier.“

“Felicia is highly professional, detail-oriented, and really listens. She took the time to ask questions and make sure she understood exactly the look I wanted.

After trying so many lash salons, I finally found the one that's perfect for me.

In my experience, most places in OC either make lashes too thick and fake-looking — or so natural that they are barely noticeable. And somehow they never seem to last very long.

Felicia gets the balance just right. The lashes look beautiful, feel comfortable, and last.

Her salon is also very cozy and thoughtfully designed. I genuinely enjoyed the whole experience.

So happy I found her. Highly recommend!!“

“I had a great experience in this extremely clean & whimsical workspace Kim has created. Kim is so friendly, professional & a perfectionist! I love the new permanent makeup done on my lips & eyebrows!! Highly recommend.“

“Thank you for taking care of my skin today! I walked out looking like a glazed donut. Ursula is so kind, knowledgable and talented at what she does. Great experience overall. Love the added massage while sitting under the oxygen LED light.“

“Sabrina is a fantastic stylist. She listens to your needs and is great to talk to while you're getting your service done. She even stayed late one night for my appointment to squeeze me in around my work schedule. The salon itself is so cute and has such a modern and fun vibe. They have been around for years so I am not surprised that it is always so busy. Can't say enough nice things.“
