“I can literally not say enough good things about Beauty by Joniece. I've been going now for a few months and have never been more pleased with my eyebrows. Back in high school I used to get them waxed with the cloth strips and they were wicked painful so I started plucking them myself, overplucked it once and screwed up the shape. Took me years to get them back to normal length and now Joniece has restored my trust in someone waxing them and that my brows can be twin sisters not fraternal cousins . She uses her own special wax and some how afterwards I'm not super puffy and it doesn't hurt. She really is a magician and has created a wonderful day spa/waxing studio. Trust me you must go to Beauty by Joniece.“

“I was referred to Tammy at Hair Affair by my aunt, whose cut and color I have always admired. After a couple of years of Covid hair cuts and box color, my hair needed some serious love. Tammy Lynn was just the person to have my hair looking fantastic. She fixed my roots, gave me the beachy highlights I was looking for and a cut that looked just like the photos I sent here. The color held up well and gave my hair body. Love Tammy Lynn at Hair Affair!“

“Sarah and Eloisa Salon are an absolute dream! Best vibes, cut, style, and time I've had at a salon. Sarah is a master of her craft and her salon is the perfect place to unwind!“

“Jean Claude did an amazing cut and style for my wife.
We will definitely be back..“

“Brenda at Adore Rouge is incredible! She did the makeup for my wedding and it was everything I had hoped for. I wanted an “enhanced” look: enough makeup to translate well in photographs but not so much makeup that it looks unnatural in person. Brenda struck the perfect balance. I have never had makeup I liked as much as the makeup I had on my wedding day. Brenda really brought out all of my best features–and did so in a way that worked perfectly for the venue and for the season. She also did my friends’ makeup, and they all looked incredible. One of my friends even said it was better than the makeup she had for her own wedding!What really amazed me, though, was how well the makeup held up. My wedding was outside and it was over 90 degrees that day. It was so hot for the first few hours, and I kept checking my makeup assuming that it had run or there were creases in my eyelids or I looked oily or something–but each time I checked it, it looked perfect. At 2:00 AM–after lots of sweating and dancing and partying, I went into the bathroom to take off my makeup and, before I did, ran back out and said to my husband “LOOK AT MY FACE MY MAKEUP LOOKS PERFECT!” He was maybe less excited than I was but admittedly impressed. What kind of magic is that! I couldn’t believe it.Brenda is also a lovely person and a calming presence–which is more important that I realized for the day of your wedding! I cannot recommend her enough!Service: Makeup services“

“Guru Salon is the only one I’ll go to. Awesome stylists who know how to deal with my coarse, curly hair. Expert colorists. Love them!“

“I have been going to Michelle for over 20 yrs for cut and color and always look fantastic! I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair. She also did my hair for my wedding and it was gorgeous.“

“Holly did my lashes and then bridal make up for my party and i at my wedding. Holly partnered with hair stylist Allie Green and together they were sweet and so fun to be around. Everyone enjoyed the process and our hair and makeup came out top notch. We would recommend both of them over and over again!“

“A friend recommended Jamie to me for my teenager since he is friendly, affordable, and offers a queer-safe space. My kid’s hair came out really nice and he engaged them in age-appropriate conversation throughout. I highly recommend Jamie!!“

“She has been cutting my hair for more than 25 years. COVID safe is the name of the game here. She is great!“
