Makeup in San Francisco

“Alicia was excellent! She is so easy to communicate with and super responsive during the entire process. On the day of my City Hall wedding, she put me at ease and made me look like an elevated version of myself. I went for a natural look, but wanted it to pop a bit for photography. She gave me exactly what I wanted for hair + makeup, and it lasted well throughout the day :) She is also really efficient - the total time was a little less than 1.5 hours. As someone who doesn’t love spending too much time getting ready, this was perfect for me. Lol. if you’re thinking about booking her, do it!“

“Ana is the best—truly. Do yourself a favor and book with her. I came in after a haircut I wasn’t loving and was seriously considering chopping all my hair off. Ana kept me grounded and helped me make the right call. Now my hair isn’t too short, I have zero regrets, and it looks so much better. I can even wear it without styling—something I didn’t think was possible after my last cut.

What sets Ana apart is her deep understanding of hair—how it moves, how it sits, and how to bring out its best without forcing it. On top of all that, she’s just a wonderful human being. I won’t go anywhere else.“

“After reading rave reviews about Nicole I decided to book my first ever eyelash extension and Nicole did a phenomenal job! Her studio is calm and inviting, the chair you lay on while you’re getting your lashes is so comfortable, I almost fell asleep! Nicole is a gem; she is a perfectionist at what she does and uber talented. I can’t wait to see her in a few weeks for a full! Thank you so much Nicole!! I’m loving my lashes :)“

“This salon is hands down the best one I've been to in the bay- Hector was incredible as was his assistant (Kenya?!). They made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. I felt pampered the entire time, and seeing Hector truly enjoying himself styling, cutting, and coloring my hair made me feel so confident! They are all so kind and easy to be with so the vibe in the studio is so warm. I can't wait to show off my new long bob, and have all my friends come here“

“Best set of lashes I’ve ever had. Julie is thorough and kind and the lashes are still going strong in week 7“

“I moved to the area a few months ago and was looking for a new stylist. Gino stood out to me with his bio and previous work so I scheduled an appointment and I'm so happy I did! The salon is small but bright and welcoming and the people are equally as bright and welcoming. Gino is great at collaboration and suggesting new styles/colors to check out and is always ready to answer any product or styling questions I might have. He's also great for ideas about what to do in the area! Love this place!“

“Nicole is absolutely incredible. I’ve been seeing her for over 10 years, and she continues to impress me with her thoroughness and expertise. She has helped me navigate a variety of skin concerns throughout the years, always showing genuine care and dedication. It’s clear that she truly cares about her clients, and it shows in every interaction. I highly recommend The Art of Aesthetics to anyone looking for exceptional care and an amazing experience.“

“This is my favorite hair salon in San Francisco with a great location and high end ambiance. I received top notch service and I highly recommend Diva salon. What an incredible experience. I had a gorgeous Birthday haircut by Diva and highlights and style by TT. Wow stunning! Andrew has unremarkable ways to make me happy with this one of a kind hair salon. I felt taken care of and I can’t wait to book again. This place goes above and beyond.

Stylist: Diva for a haircut
TT for highlights and style“

“I’m looking for permanent makeup and considered Stella Kim but compared to other artists her prices are double and this is turnoff for me.“

“I know Alisa Flammier for many years and your dedication to the art work and aesthetic is inspiring me and other artists as one of her clients I recommend to come and see her work you will love it!“

“Maria did a great job executing the makeup look I wanted for my event. She was very attentive to detail, which I really appreciated. She made sure I was happy with my look throughout the process. The whole process went smoothly. Maria is very talented, kind, professional, generous, & has a great vibe. Will definitely book her for future events!! Because I know that it will be one less thing I have to worry about lol“

“One word: transformative. I hadn’t gotten my hair cut professionally in 5 years before coming here, but Linda managed to reverse all the damage and split ends within an hour. Everyone I’ve showed my hair to says it’s stylish and beautiful. Linda is also really great company, very honest (she refunded me money for a color consultation when we decided to stick with my natural hair color) and is just an expert. I have not gotten such a good haircut since I left London. Linda brings this European sensibility to her haircuts and is just so, so talented. Already planning to come back every couple months to maintain this look.“

“Felicia did amazing- she recreated the exact look I wanted and paid so much attention to detail. No make up smudges even though that tends to happen to me. Hair stayed perfectly in place the whole time. It was a great natural but elevated/classy look. Couldn’t recommend enough, brides!“

“I have been seeing and following Dede for over 20 years. I started seeing her at Maiden Lane when I was 15 years old and she was the first person to shape my eyebrows. I always get complimented on them thanks to Dede. She is incredibly talented and can texturize my eyebrows like no one else. Where Dede goes, I go! I am very particular about my eyebrows and love that she never rushes anything and takes the time needed. She keeps my eyebrows up to date on trends yet still keeps them classy and full. When it comes to eyebrows, Dede is la crème de la crème.“

“Yahaira gave me a great haircut a few weeks ago. I usually wait to post reviews after haircuts and can confirm my hair has grown out so well! Her attention to detail and style truly stand out and pricing is very fair for the amount of time she spent on my hair.“

“Ada Garcia is an absolutely amazing and talented hair stylist! She has been helping me with my hair for 17 years! Without a doubt, she is the best in the Bay Area and San Francisco. Every time I visit her salon, my hair looks perfect, and I feel incredible when I leave. Her attention to detail and expertise are unmatched. I can't recommend her enough!“

“I hired Jen to do makeup and hair for my wedding entourage and I'm so glad I did! Jen and her team kindly did hair and makeup for 8 of us the morning of my wedding. They were so friendly and fun to work with and we all looked amazing. I didn't want anything too heavy or overdone since I was getting married midday; I had friends who wanted a bit heavier of a look; and I have a 70 year old mom who just wanted to feel pretty. Jen and her team accomplished it all! And she was a dream to communicate with. I would work with her again!“

“Just started seeing Deb recently and I am THRILLED. Dynamite style, super great at listening and communicating about the plan of the day and easy to talk to without pressures of any kind. Phenomenal cut and color job. The ambiance is SO COOL. It’s a sweet vintage loving oasis in the heart of the Mission. Great tunes too!“

“Sshhhh! Don’t blow up this spot - it’s the best! Booking online is a breeze and it’s across from a fabulous grocery store with a coffee bar if you arrive too early. I personally walk a couple of blocks from BART (16th & Mission) and have never been approached or bothered but the place is well served by Waymo, Lyft & uber as alternatives. Great work and relaxed atmosphere. Thanks!“

“I go here for haircuts and Cezanne smoothing treatments and they are the best. I've had Lola for haircut and Ziggy does an amazing Cezanne super detailed and gentle.“

“Just had another haircut from Erika.... and again she showed her talent..... I love it .The cut is great and I am happy..! Exactly what I wanted and already got a compliment from my neighbor !!!!!“

“Every time I go to Clifford, I leave the salon feeling beautiful and light. He gives my hair movement and shine, and I get a spring in my step! I have been coming to Clifford regularly for more than a decade. In that time, he has guided me through many different phases with my hair, and the decisions that go along with it: curtain bangs, long hair, a bob, side-swept bangs, a keratin treatment for smoothing, a pixie cut... Looking back, it's been a journey, and he's *the* trusted advisor. He has helped me incorporate classic looks, trends, and my own impulses with my hair, while always keeping me feeling current and modern. He knows how to work with your natural features (e.g. face shape, skin tone) to bring out your best attributes. He's also a sweet person who is very knowledgeable, and cares about your hair and keeping it healthy for the long term. I trust Clifford to the extent that I sent my mom to him as a gift when she was in town a few years ago. She came back with an amazing color that was perfect for her complexion, and a beautiful cut. She still talks about Clifford and how beautiful he made her feel. So... all that to say... I recommend Clifford highly!“

“Beautiful hair salon with a laid back vibe. I personally come here for Geno, who has been cutting my hair for over a year now. I have never had someone give me such consistently good haircuts. I leave very satisfied each time!

Geno, along with most of the stylists working out of this space, are extremely booked up. So plan accordingly and schedule an appointment ahead of time.“

“Honestly, I don’t have the right words to describe how amazing Christina is. As someone who does not typically wear makeup and generally avoids cameras and attention, I had significant anxiety over my wedding. Christina made the whole process easy! She was laid-back, friendly, and unintimidating. She’s a skilled artist and a consummate professional.

I’m not sure I realized how much time I would be spending with a hair and makeup artist during my wedding weekend…I am so grateful that it was Christina! She was my right-hand man for the whole day and went out of her way to help.

Thank you for everything, Christina! I feel so lucky and grateful that you were part of our big day and I hope to cross paths with you again soon! I would highly recommend her with no reservations!“

“The moment you walk into Sallon Village, you instantly feel at peace.
There’s such a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and it’s clear that every detail was created with love.

And by the way, if you’re thinking about getting your lashes or brows done—just do it. Lana has magic in her hands—my lashes and brows have never looked this good. She just knows what you need.

This place is a true gem ?“
