Reviews for Special Event Hair & Makeup
GUEST




Lea did my hair as well as my 6 bridesmaids'. They all turned out amazing! I loved my bm's hair, and also loved mine! Lea was wonderful, from the first meeting through the last moment she finished my hair. She not only is one of the sweetest people I have met, she has a real talent for hair! A joy to work with, professional, very accommodating, thoughtful and helpful, and provided a hairstyle that I loved and will love seeing in all my wedding photos! Would highly recommend! You are lucky if you can get her!

Lea and her crew were awesome and I hope to be able to use her in the future for other beauty needs! She was very prompt, a great listener and she had great follow through!!! We all loved her personality on the big day! Lea is super savvy and is up to date on all the latest wedding updo's and hair style's. Her make up skills are just as strong, which makes her a beautiful artist all around! You can tell she loves what she does from the services she provides!
GUEST




Lea is awesome! She did my hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids for my wedding at Wine and Roses, Lodi. I LOVED both the hair and makeup, it couldn't have turned out better. I have really thick long hair and I wanted a side chignon that was elegantly messy, not too slick but not too poofy and not too much curls. She really came up with exactly what I had hoped for but way better in that the updo she did on me was not tight and strained with a million bobby pins. It was looser and I felt very comfortable wearing it all day. I had a trial run with another stylist and the hair do was so tight and painful on my head that I couldn't wait to take it down, but that was not the case with Lea's. As for the makeup, I don't wear much make up, but what she did for me and my bridesmaid was very simple but flawless. We looked beautiful and I can't thank her enough for her work. She is a great value, with great work. I looked very long and hard on yelp, and many other similar hair and makeup artist but I consider myself very lucky to have come across Lea. Just like the last review mentions, she does have a very fun and bubbly personality.
Thanks...

Lea was amazing I couldn't had asked for a more professional fun person for hair and make up I would highly recommend to any bride who wants to look beautiful and have someone who knows what she's doing!!!!
GUEST




I had Lea do my hair and make up for my wedding and I loved it. She was very friendly and easy to get a hold of. We did a trial appointment to make sure my day would be perfect. My up do lasted all day and looked great. My make up was fabulous and looked great in the photos. I would recommend her to anyone who's need great hair and make up.
GUEST




Lea with Special Event Hair & Makeup was a pleasure to work with. She did a fabulous job with my makeup for my wedding. She has a charismatic personality and is a true professional. I would recommend Lea to anyone looking for a makeup artist that is easy to work with, and does great work.
GUEST




Lea is very friendly and does amazing work. I was so pleased with my look the day of and so were all of my bridesmaids. I would absolutely hire her again and recommend her to all of my friends and family.
GUEST




Lea did a fantastic job on my hair and makeup. Our wedding was outdoors and the temperature was a little over 90 and it was windy, but both my hair and makeup still looked great at the end of the night.
Lea and her assistant were both very friendly and prompt as well. I felt very well taken care of. Thanks, Lea!
GUEST




Lea was absolutely fabulous! She made everyone in my bridal party including friends look and feel beautiful!
Lea came to my rescue after I had a few bad trials with another lady, I didn't even have to say much she just gets it! A few of my girls came the day of with just a picture and Lea was able to do every hairstyle at the drop of a dime! I recommend her 100% to anyone getting married! I will be using her for anything I need hair/makeup done for in the future, as well as all my girlfriends who were at my wedding too!
GUEST




Leah was absolutely a pleasure to work with! Very prompt and did a great job on both my hair and makeup. Would recommend to any bride! Price is fantastic too!
GUEST




Lea did such an amazing job. She was able to give me exactly the hairstyle that I wanted and it lasted the entire night. The make-up was also perfect. I wanted it to look natural (like me, but enhanced) and she did an excellent job. It was perfect. I can not say enough good things. She also did all of my bridesmaids' hair and make-up too and they looked gorgeous. She came to my wedding venue was on time and affordable.
GUEST




Lea and her team did an amazing job for my wedding, doing makeup and hair for not only myself, but my bridesmaids, my grandma and the groom's mom. Our wedding day ended up being windy and rainy and our hair and makeup made it through it all perfectly. Lea and her team showed up on time and were done by the time that we had originally planned. They were all very friendly and professional. Lea was extremely flexibility when making herself available to do a trial run. I would highly recommend Lea and her team to do your hair and makeup for your wedding!
GUEST




Lea is a real artist! She did makeup and Hair for our wedding, and every single person was thrilled with her work.
Lea has exactly the calm and friendly personality you want around you on your wedding day. She really listened to exactly what I wanted, and I was thrilled with the outcome. I didn't want to look overly made-up, but still have makeup that photographed well. Her work was flawless and my hair stayed put all night long.
My sister/MOH has gone through her share of stylists and make-up artists, and this time she couldn't find a single thing to criticize. Everyone was really happy with how they looked, and that confidence really shows through in the photos from our day.
I would recommend Lea heartily.
GUEST




Lea and Ashley did a great job with my hair and make up! I received so many compliments and I felt amazing that day. Lea was so flexible the day of the wedding. We had a lot of out of town guests who were looking for a hair stylist, and Lea was able to do everyone's hair with a last minute notice. Thank you for helping my day turn out great :)
GUEST




Lea is talented and professional. I would use her again in a heartbeat. She is friendly and relaxed so it makes your wedding prep atmosphere really laid back. Everyone was really happy with their hair and make up. She has got the wedding thing down and will make your day that much more special.
GUEST




I booked Lea at the last minute for a pre-wedding event, Mendhi festivities for our Indian wedding. I found her through the very helpful KCRA list where she came in 2nd place!
Lea did a fabulous job with my hair and makeup which was flawless. I received many wonderful compliments on my look!
I would recommend her to anyone.
GUEST




Lea is the best! I was trying to find a stylist for my wedding hair through referrals but ended up finding her online. I scheduled a trial with her because of her great reviews, and I'm so happy I chose her! She was so helpful going through styles because I didn't really know what I wanted (we had to do 2 trials). She was so easy to communicate with by email, phone, or text. She was very relaxed and patient with me, which are priceless qualities to have in a wedding vendor. On the day of she was on time, her assistant was great, and she helped make my wedding day fantastic. Professional, kind, creative, and fun... I couldn't have dreamed of a better hair stylist!
GUEST




Lea was amazing, she made me feel so special on my day. We had not done a trial run, so when she got to my house I told her what I wanted and when I looked at myself in the mirror it was perfect!
She was everything I wanted in a makeup artist and hairstylist. I looked exactly like myself, but more polished and my husband couldn't take his eyes off of me!

Lea was great she made everything i wanted come true and helped calm my nerves. We hadn't done a trial or met before so i was a little nervous but she was exellent!!!!
GUEST




Lea of Special Event Hair and Makeup is the best! She was so fun to work with! She really took the time to make sure that everything was just how I imagined it would be. She went above and beyond in everything she did. I was so lucky to have found her!!
GUEST




Lea's services and professionalism are outstanding and top rate. I had 2 requests when I met with Lea for my trial run (1) long curls as I've let my hair grow for a couple years to have long curls, and (2) my make-up be natural as I do not wear makeup regularly.
The plan for my wedding day hair during the trial run had to be changed at the last minute due to windy weather. When Lea arrived she expressed her concerns with the high wind and explained how she'd like to make a small change in the style. Everything turned out beautifully and my husband LOVED the hair and make-up.
Additionally, I must say I was a bit of a basketcase just before the ceremony and Lea being there for "last minute touch-ups" was amazing. She helped me put on my jewelry as I couldn't get my hands to cooperate. She definitely helped put the finishing touches to my wedding day look.
Thank you Lea!
GUEST




Lea made my wedding day so special, not to mention the trial run prior. Her rates are about the same as a salon, but in my opinion totally worth the cost. Not only was she flexible with the undetermined mind of a bride, but she also comes to you! Keep in mind that she also does make-up, and additional people. She was great, I am truly considering making her my permanent hair stylist. Few people actually know how to handle my extremely thick, non-curl holding, puffy, crazy hair. Lea made my hair breath-takingly flawless. She was fast, brilliant, honest about what my hair options were but still able to achieve a look that was beautiful and pictured in my head. She did a great job and any bride that booked her would be lucky, smart, and be in the best hands. Lea was a pleasant woman that knows her craft, and made my seemingly impossible vision a reality. And no this is not some false testimony, I have pictures to prove it! Soon to be on her site if they aren't already. :) thank you so much Lea! You are amazing and brilliantly talented!

Lea was amazing! She did my make-up and my Maid of Honor's. We were running late and Lea was so great and fast. She was able to get our make-up done quickly and beautifully. She kept our make-up very natural looking, which is what we both wanted...and, it looked beautiful! I got so many compliments.
GUEST




Lea is WONDERFUL!! I would highly recommend her for both hair and makeup!
GUEST




Lea is phenomenal!
About a week before my wedding I realized I hated my faded box-color hair color. Great timing, right? I had already booked Lea to do my hair and makeup (and my six bridesmaids) on my wedding day. I asked her if she could fit me in such short notice to do a hair color. I told her I wasn't sure what color I wanted, just as long as all of the reds were taken out and some of my natural dirty blondes came through. Not only did she make time for me, she did an amazing job on my hair color! A true artist.
On my wedding day, she exceeded my expectations again. All of my attendants looked gorgeous and had never felt so beautiful in all my life. She was professional, talented, and so easy to talk to.
Highly recommended!
GUEST




Ok so Lea was absolutely amazing my bridesmaid are had to impress people and she was able to make them happy. On my wedding day I looked and felt amazing with my hair and makeup done by her. I enjoyed her so much that she will now be cutting and highlighting my hair on a regular.
GUEST




Lea was great. Even though I didn't have a trial run she made my day so much better. My hair and make-up came out wonderful and everyone loved it. Lea, you are amazing. Hopefully I will be able to have you do my hair in the future as well. The make up turned out so pretty. I never knew I could look so pretty. Thanks Lea for everything.
GUEST




I absolutely LOVE Lea. She made me beautiful for my wedding. I loved my hair so so so much and got a lot of compliments. She is also great at make up. After my trials, we found a perfect style and just what I wanted. She did all of my bridesmaids hair as well and they all looked stunning. She is fun and a sweet girl to work with. Her prices are excellent. Thank you Lea! You are THE BEST!

Lea is such a great bridal makeup and hair stylist! She really helped me out at the last minute when I was unable to find a stylist I liked, luckily I found Lea! I got tons of compliments on my hair and makeup on the Big Day...and it lasted the whole day! She was very professional, her work was amazing, and it was really affordable! On top of all that, she also has a great personality! I highly recommend Lea for bridal makeup and hair :)
GUEST




Lea did a great job on me and my bridesmaids for my wedding. She has very reasonable prices especially for the great job she does. If you have a special event coming I would highly recommend Lea for the hair/makeup job. Trust me, she will make you look and feel beautiful!
GUEST




Lea took on a lot, did an excellent job, and offered awesome prices. I would recommend her for any hair or make-up position. She was very pleasant to be around and was so calm in a stressful environment. Excellent work, flexibility, attitude, and professionalism.
GUEST




I can't say enough kind words, She has a true talent
"" knack for making you look beautiful. Extremely patient, accommodating, and will go the extra mile if you need something. I will definitely recommend her If you happen to stumble across my review your one step closer to finding the best hair/makeup designer yet. You will not be disappointed if you so choose to go with with her for any special day! There's a lot of people out there to choose from, way over priced, poor customer service, the list goes on and on! Take my word, if you haven't already
GUEST




Lea did an amazing job on my wedding! She was great with communication beforehand and arrived on-time (early even) on the day of. She even did all my bridesmaids hair & makeup. Got them all done in a timely manner and they looked gorgeous! Everything stayed on and hair stayed curled throughout the long evening wedding. Everyone was ready ahead of schedule and it was nice not to be running late on the biggest day of my life.
Beyond all she did to make everyone look amazing, she has such a great personality and I enjoyed having her with us getting ready. She's super mellow and was an incredible asset that day. She made everything so much fun!
I highly recommend Lea, she will make you look fabulous!!
GUEST




If you pick Lea to do your hair and makeup for your special day you will NOT be disappointed. I am VERY picky about my hair and makeup and I was SO nervous about finding someone who would do it right and not charge an outrageous price. I found Lea through an add online and called, she was extremely nice, had great prices AND she agreed to meet with me only days before the wedding because I was living in San Diego and I wouldn't be in the area until the week before my wedding in Sacramento. I literally got off the plane and called her and she was more than happy to accommodate me, my mother and maid of honor. We went to her home and she did a full consultation, free of charge and she really listened to me! I left feeling SO excited and relieved that my hair and makeup on that day would be perfect!
On the day of the wedding, Lea and her assistant came, totally prepared, 5 hours early. When it was my turn she took her time and made sure everything was perfect and she even stayed until minutes before I walked down the aisle to help me with every last finishing touch! My bridesmaids hair and makeup was absolutely perfect also! Lea was a huge part of making my day relaxing and perfect!
I absolutely loved working with Lea! She is a great hair dresser and I can't wait to work with her again.
