Makeup in Oakland

“Rebecca is the queen of natural hair and makeup in the Bay Area. I hired her for my bridal party, and she brought out everyone's best features while keeping the look natural and comfortable -- just the most elevated version of themselves. And the hair -- the HAIR! -- was shockingly stunning. She made my girls look like they had extensions, even without them. Every request was nailed effortlessly, and everyone's look lasted all night with zero skin issues. Rebecca is also flexible and kind, staying late without hesitation to accommodate extra services. She's a genius at what she does and the exact kind of calm, positive energy you want on your wedding day. If you want to look natural yet flawless, book her. I'd hire her again in a heartbeat.“

“Naomi saved my hair after a traumatic balayage I got while traveling. I am very happy with how my hair turned out and I highly recommend Naomi if you need a color correction or balayage. She’s very attentive to your specific needs, and will make your hair look it’s best.“

“Missy Moran Studios is my new go-to place for Hydrafacials. Missy a total pro, gets input on what her clients main concerns are and very communicative on her plan before and while the facial itself. She even offers a light tinted sunscreen to protect your skin afterwards. I will definitely be back soon.“

“I’ve been coming to this salon for over 10 years, and I truly can’t say enough good things about it. The staff is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional it always feels like visiting family. The service is consistently top-notch, whether it’s a simple haircut or something more involved. They really take the time to listen to what you want and make sure you leave happy every single time.

The salon is always clean, comfortable, and well-run, which makes every visit relaxing and enjoyable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and genuinely warm salon experience. It’s rare to find a business that maintains such high standards year after year, and this one absolutely does.“

“Nicole is an all around all star and someone you can trust 100% to make your hair and makeup dreams a reality. I've gone to her twice for a haircut, once for full balayage, and once for toner. Before I went in for a toner it had been six months since we had done color and I was still getting compliments from people on my hair color! Most recently I decided to book Nicole for my birthday updo and makeup and she was phenomenal! I was a bit worried because the appointment was at 9am and my event wasn't until 3pm. She utilized a special sewing technique for the loose curls look I wanted and it lasted all day through the night. Before I went to bed I took out the pins and my bun was still intact when I woke up because of the sewing! Magic! I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup. I loved how she did my makeup and how she worked with my natural features. I felt like a princess. Thank you, Nicole!!“

“Thank you, Jinny! You are amazing. As a mom, putting my kids first is always a priority. You took excellent care of my teens during high school and continue to care for all of our skin needs today. Your delightful demeanor, effective skincare products, and treatments truly make a difference. I always feel cared for and walk out rejuvenated and glowing. (Pictured is the LED light.) Thank you Jinny for taking care of our family, and if I could get my husband in, I would! Men!

Highly Recommend! Questions, just call me!“

“Dwight Davis is a genius hairstylist, a rockstar and an all around cool person. I’ve done lots of colors, shapes and textures with my hair thanks to him. He was referred to me by a friend- we both have long curly hair which he’s done a great job with. Super cute little space, 2 chairs, very personal and professional at the same time.“

“Eryn and her team did a great job helping me grow out my grey hair. They not only explained every step and made my hair look great at every stage, but Eryn understood and supported the change of having my hair reflect my age.“

“I had a haircut with Krista and she was amazing!! She asked all the right questions and listened to what I wanted and my concerns. My hair is fine and we took it from long with grown out bangs to about collar bone length with a new-to-me style of bangs that I loved. I already have my bang trim and next cut appointments booked.“

“Trenell is magic! The best in her business. I'm pretty picky because I want my hair taken care of and a beautiful finish and she provides that. On top of that she's the most friendly and helpful person. She has a light and energy that makes spending time in her chair fun and time passes easily. But that's not the key to why I adore her, it's her care and knowledge about hair. Thank you Trenell!!“

“Loved how my hair turned out, the woman who cut my hair was so kind and she was so fun to talk to!“

“Best blow out ever. I mean that, my hair is so hard to get straight. I loved the vibe here. My stylist was amazing and did exactly what I had asked for. Great salon and great stylists.“

“Jae is absolutely amazing! She truly understands natural hair and always makes sure my styles are not only beautiful but also healthy for my hair. She has a gentle touch and incredible skill, and every visit leaves me feeling so confident. I would highly recommend Jae to anyone looking for gorgeous, healthy natural hairstyles. You won't be disappointed!“

“Daniella has saved my hair, and my spirit. I love coming in to see her and trust her with my life (my hair). I would genuinely fly to wherever she moves to to keep seeing her. I didn’t want to post this because she’s already booked as she is and I need her to have some openings for me!!!!“

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Janea and the magic she worked on my wedding day! From the moment we started the trial session to the final touches on the big day, her professionalism, artistry, and warmth were unmatched.
She truly listened to my vision and made me feel so comfortable, while also offering suggestions to ensure the makeup enhanced my natural beauty. On my wedding day, I felt absolutely stunning. The makeup was flawless and lasted the entire day. I never once needed a touch-up. Her attention to detail is incredible. Janea is so talented at creating radiant, photo-ready skin, while still ensuring I looked like me, just the most polished, glowing version of myself.
To top it off, she brought such a calming presence to the getting-ready process, which really set the tone for an stress-free morning. I received endless compliments on my makeup, and looking back at my photos, I’m still in awe of how perfect everything looked.
If you’re searching for a makeup artist for your wedding (or any special occasion), look no further. Janea is truly an artist, and hiring her was one of the best decisions I made. I cannot recommend her enough!“

“I have been a repeat customer for about ~3 years. Tsomuka is an artist and a talented professional. I walk in with an idea, maybe a sample picture and she interprets it very well. A perfect location for transformational looks as well as maintenance cuts.“

“I got a silk press for the first time in 8 years. Crystal was fantastic! I was in the salon chair within 3 min. of my appointment time. She did an amazing job and my hair feels so so healthy and clean. I love it! My only one thing is that it ended up notably more expensive than I anticipated. No points off though because after assessing my hair and situation, recommendations were made to me. I didn't ask how much each thing would cost, and I consented to everything done. I don't treat myself to things often, and I know I needed to get my hair into a healthier place. Worth it. I plan to come back with my kiddo for her first salon experience!“

“I wasn't expecting to get a haircut today but Bobbie at the front was so sweet I decided I came back about a minute later when I asked the price. Nicole did an excellent job on my hair, taking it first conservatively short but was happy to apply a close fade/blend. Very friendly as well. I don't know if this matters or is too be expected but I'm a white guy with fine hair and didn't feel out of place at all.“

“Went to Bounce Blow Dry Bar for an updo for my wedding last week! They did great work, looked at my inspo photos and then modified based on my hair.

The style was secure throughout all the wedding festivities and I got many compliments. Price was fabulous compared to so many other wedding hair vendors, and Melissa and Emma made me feel so cared for.

Definitely recommending it to friends who want help with event hair or just a lovely blow out experience because even the music was a good time!“

“been coming here for years. excellent quick and cheapest haircut place in the bay area! reliable“
