Reviews for Hidden Beauty
GUEST
For my daughter's sixteenth birthday slumber party, I hired Hidden Beauty to provide makeup services to the girls. There prices were reasonable and the service was great. Not only did they use high-end products, they were equipped with airbrushing, consultation tips, and lashes for all the girls.
The setup and cleanup was quick and easy and they were on time. Thanks again Hidden Beauty. I would definitely use you again.

Stacy and Lynn were amazing!!! You guys made my day!!!!! I felt like a million dollars for my wedding day thanks to you both.
GUEST
Stacy and her team are AMAZING!!! She did makeup and hair for our daughter's wedding and everyone looked beautiful. She listens to what you want, makes sure you are comfortable through the whole process.
In addition to "day of" services, Stacy checks in with you prior to make sure everything is on track and offers to help. On "day of" we never felt rushed and Stacy even stayed and help my daughter get dressed and took some of the BEST pics of the day!
My daughter (the bride) looked so beautiful and natural. We have had so many comments about her hair and makeup!
Stacy is now my "go to" for any event where I want to look FABULOUS!
Thank you Stacy!

Hidden Beauty is so awesome! They graciously provided their services for our Women of Inspiration Afternoon Tea. They did hair tinsling, hand massages, and henna tattoos for the guests at our fundraiser for Shane's Inspiration, a non-profit whose vision is to create a bias-free world for children with disabilities through their inclusive playgrounds and programs. It was an awesome afternoon for all our guests. The ladies loved the services that Hidden Beauty provided. Thank you so much Stacy, Cynthia and Diana! Hidden Beauty Girls Rock! With gratitude, Marci Moran :-)

I had another mobile manicure party scheduled for my daughters when, two days before the date, they cancelled! I found Hidden Beauty online, and the wonderful Stacey talked me through my options, the different pricing, and the day of my party, I had a manicurist AND a glitter tattoo artist! My girls had a blast, their friends loved the tattoos and getting their nails done, and it was all at a great price. Will totally use Hidden Beauty in the future!!

Where do I begin? I was volunteered to plan my brother's wedding. I was always interested in event planning, so I was given the opportunity to take my interest to the next level. I started the planning process by looking for a Hair & Make-Up Vendor. I came across Hidden Beauty! I talked to Stacy and compared prices with other vendors. First off, Stacy was extremely nice and friendly. After talking over the details, which were many, I hired Stacy and her Hidden Beauty team, on behalf of my brother and his, now, wife, for their wedding. While preparing for my brother's wedding I was also asked to plan my brother's best friend's engagement, which was before the wedding. As soon I was given the go, I called Stacy, talked over details, and eventually hired her and her Hidden Beauty team for the Engagement. Through the many phone calls placed to Stacy, I felt that I could trust her. The day of the engagement quickly came and it was time to get the show on the road. Stacy sent over her team member Maria. Maria did an AMAZING job. Marian the Bride to Be was extremely happy with the outcome of Maria's work. She received several compliments on her hair and make-up. After the engagement I was relieved that one event was down and there was one more left. Stacy called me about every week or so to make sure that I was cool, calm and collected. The time for the wedding has arrived! After talking to Stacy and absolutely loving her, I was super excited to meet her. I felt like she was part of my family. The day of the wedding went off without a hitch! Everything was perfect! Hair was perfect! Make-Up was perfect! The day of the wedding I was an emotional WRECK!!! But just as Stacy promised, my make-up stayed on and lasted until I washed it off. Stacy made these experiences more memorable then they already were. There are no words or actions that I can say or do that will show my gratitude, my thankfulness, and appreciation toward Stacy and her team. I would HIGHLY suggest for anyone to hire Stacy for any event. SHE IS AMAZING!!!!! LOVE HER TO DEATH!!!! Thank you Stacy!!!
GUEST
Wow! What can I say! My daughter was so busy with all of the details of her wedding and asked me to help her find someone to come to her to do her make-up the day of the big event!! I found Hidden Beauty on the internet and called Stacy. She was so wonderful. Though unable to come all from Woodland Hills to Santa Barbara, on extremely short notice, she immediately went to work researching someone from her team, made many phone calls to find someone for us!! The last phone call was to me! She had found someone that would come to our venue, the day of the ceremony! Our "wedding party" was just my daughter!! The woman that came was lovely! She did a beautiful job and my daughter was thrilled. Thanks a million to Stacy and Hidden Beauty for being so nice, professional and accommodating. I would highly recommend Hidden Beauty to anyone wanting to ensure beautiful make-up for any special event. Thanks again to all, your service was amazing!

Stacy did a wonderful job on our makeup. Everything was made simple. No worries!!!! She spent a lot of time with the family prior to the wedding and made sure that everything was just right.
GUEST
Stacy was absolutely FABULOUS. She was easy to schedule a run-through with (I live outside of SoCal, and she was very accommodating to schedule something with me far in advance so I could schedule the trip), and very accommodating with the schedule. And the makeup for me and the bridesmaids! Beautiful. Natural, with just enough to highlight the bridesmaids' beauty. And my makeup was perfect; not too much, not too little. The pictures were beautiful.
And the hair. Oh, the hair was my favorite. I came with a somewhat vague description of what I wanted, and it came out to be more beautiful than I ever imagined. Cascades of curls, swept up elegantly, for all of the ladies. And it stayed in place without too many hairpins or hairspray. No other hairdresser was able to keep my hair in curls for as long as this do stayed.
And to top it all off, Stacy is so sweet. She kept us laughing throughout the entire morning; such an absolute sweetheart.
Can't go wrong with Hidden Beauty; I plan on recommending Stacy to any of my friends once they're engaged.
GUEST
Hidden Beauty was great to work with during my wedding. From the moment I booked them for my big day, Stacy kept in touch with me throughout the whole process. She let me know she was ready and excited about the upcoming date. My hair and makeup artist came to my house on the day of the event and she was on time and very professional. I would HIGHLY reccommend Hidden Beauty for your wedding beauty needs.
GUEST
The makeup looked great and it stayed on all night threw tears and breakdowns! I would recommend her to anybody looking to get their makeup done for any event.
GUEST
What a pleasant experience! Everything was as planned and all of the girls looked absolutely amazing. The makeup looked flawless and made the photos that much more beautiful.

Just used Hidden Beauty for my daughter's 11th Birthday Party. We had a slumber party with 9-eleven year-old girls. We had manicures and pedicures done and the girls had a BLAST. The hidden beauty team was very professional and excellent with kids. They accomodated all of their many requests with enthusiasm and cheerfulness. The birthday girl enjoyed herself so much and we got compliments and sincere thanks from all the guests. Thanks again Hidden Beauty! Next time I'm booking the party for the adults!

Maria did a wonderful job in doing my hair on the trail run and on my wedding day. Every one complemented on my hair and it made feel beautiful and super happy with my hair-do. I would totally recommend Hidden Beauty to do anyone's hair for a very special day.

If you are looking for your hair and makeup to be done either at your home or in a hotel room for a special event then these are the people to do it for you. They are super talented at what they do and the owner of the company is one of the sweetest funnest people you will meet. She will even do one or more trials prior to the wedding so you can make sure that everything is exactly the way you want it to be. The only reason I didn't rate them a little higher was the fact that they are a little on the pricey side (but they do come to you so its worth it) and one of the girls did not show the day of my wedding so we were running late because Stacy and her girls that were there had to pick up the slack of her missing girl.
Here is my personal opinion.
Please brides, STAY AWAY from this vendor! This woman is very unprofessional. Works from her home, hyper and can NOT control herself at all. Answered her phone 10 different times while I was there for my hair and make-up appointment. Didn't listen to my concerns or likes/dislikes on make-up. Her hair stylist was "OK" but had a raging cold or allergies and barely did my hair. Has anyone ever had a make-up artist use an OLD mascara on them? It was so old the product name had been scratched off along time ago. I awoke the next morning with two red eyes. In addition, she insisted that she put GOLD eyeliner on me? Uses CHEAP products from your local drug store, including NYC lipstick, $1.00 everywhere! Looked cheap. My kids called me "Circus Clown"
STAY AWAY from this woman. Non professional. Too expensive ($150.00 for trial $250 on wedding day) for someone in my opinion that has lack of experience and POOR PERSONALITY. Really AWFUL personality. I was also told she is looked down upon by many other high classs vendors in San Fernando Valley. Stay AWAY!
This is my personal opinion.

Prell did my make-up and hair! Unbelieveable perfectionist! Fantastic stylist, we definately connected and she's a A++++! Color scheme was just right...I am going to be beautiful thanks to WWW.Mariahnicole.com & Prell! I owe them my life!
Dear Stacy and Jaime, Thank you so much for doing a fantastic job on my hair and makeup for my wedding! I felt more beautiful than ever and my new husband said, Wow, you look amazing!. I truly appreciate your artistic talent, the trial runs, and your willingness to traveling to my wedding site. You are the best!
-Thanks again, Susan
Dear Stacy and Jaime,
Thank you so much for everything you have done for my girls and I. My day was even more special because of you! We want to thank you for donating your time. When my wedding planner told me that you and Jaime would do my wedding for free because of my father dying of cancer, and our financial situation, I was thrilled! We just cannot thank you guys enough.
-Love, Stephanie
Hidden Beauty has done my hair and makeup for two very special events and I couldn't have been happier. I received compliments from men and women alike! They are willing to work with my ideas and come up with even better ones. My makeup was impeccable and my hairstyle couldn't have been more contemporary. I will absolutely use Hidden Beauty again and again!
- Thanks, Cindy
Thanks Stacy, Everything was awesome and so perfect! I will send you more pics as soon as I get them.
Best regards and take care,
Teresa

FAQ for Hidden Beauty
We do Hair Extensions, Airbrush tanning and makeup. Spa parties are available as well.
Avoid substances that could give you oily skin, swelling or irritations, such as red meat, alcohol, caffeine, and spicy or deep fried foods.
Remember to drink lots of water to keep you hydrated and to flush out all the toxins.
Avoid using Retin A and Alpha Hydroxy creams at least 4 days prior to the wedding day. They can cause dry flaky skin, and or redness.
Exfoliate your skin manually the day before your Wedding. Better yet have a Microdermabrasion peel done a week before. It makes for a clean palate.
If you can, have your eyebrows professionally shaped prior to the wedding day. Eyebrows are extremely important because they frame out the eyes.
Have your hair color or roots taken care of a week before the wedding. If you plan on cutting you hair make sure you do that at least a week in advance. It would be helpful to us if you could have your head piece or bridal veil available at the trial hair and make-up session.
Your hair and face should be clean, and product free when your hair stylist and make-up artist arrive.
Make sure you bring lipstick and powder with you for touch ups as needed. If you have the make-up artist with you all day, you should still carry those items with you.
STACY’S TIPS TO ALL THE BRIDES TO BE WEDDING CAKE BLUES: I’m on a never-ending quest to make your wedding day perfect. We expect wedding cake bakeries to be magical, right? But, can you believe it—some are not. Many just use everyday boxed cake mixes: Ducan Hines, Betty Crocker, etc., fondants and frostings that are ready made—and who knows what else. I know a good portion of your budget goes toward that once-in-a-lifetime wedding cake, so I decided to share this with all you brides to be. You may think you are getting the most fantastic cake in the world—but are you—or are you paying a small fortune too eat the ingredients that come out of a box? So, brides to be—beware, and aware—tell them you want to take a look in the back room to see how they make the cakes, and check out where they keep their ingredients. I do however have some good news: I’m on a search for the bakeries that do everything from scratch. One of the first I have found even includes doing the fondant from scratch, which is a rarity. I went to “Cake Crumbs” in Encino for a “cake tasting” with my favorite wedding planner, Shannon Fleck. Well, not only are the cakes amazing and bedazzling—they taste as good as they look—not like a lump of butter and sugar, but real homemade ingredients. Yes brides, that is the key—custom cakes made from scratch for you on your special day. Cake Crumbs is located at 17233 Ventura Blvd. Encino, CA. 91316 (818) 501-3918. The owner John and Susan Rota are sweet and down to earth, which is also a breath of fresh air. This is Stacy signing off in search of more bakeries that bake from scratch!
