Ladda P. at Jose Luis is WONDERFUL and so sweet and amazing at what she does! I recommend her 100% to brides looking to get their perfect bridal hair and makeup done!
Let me say that I was dead-set on doing my own makeup, because I thought "no one can do it like I do it, no one will do it like I like it, I'll be upset and stressed out and end up looking like a clown". But I needed my hair done, and I'm big on reviews, so I found Jose Luis Salon and they had SEVERAL glowing reviews...but mostly for styles, coloring, and cuts. But I decided to book a consultation and an appointment for my bridal portrait pictures, and they set me up with Ladda. I also saw that they had airbrush makeup, did some research on that, and considered it an option.
Ladda was really sweet, took time to look at the pictures of updo's I had, and talked to me about how I wanted to look for my bridal portraits. She made me feel better by saying the style I liked she had done several times and we talked about airbrush makeup, what I wanted, what I didn't want, etc. She listened closely, and at the end of the appointment, I really felt like we were on the same page, so I felt comfortable going to her for my hair and airbrush makeup for my bridal portrait pictures.
My hair and makeup for my bridal portraits was great! I was so surprised that, as minimalistic as my makeup was, I looked beautiful! And the pictures showed flawlessness in my face. My hair was done like I asked and looked really pretty, but that's the beauty of bridal portrait pictures...you can see how you might look on your wedding day and make adjustments, which I did. I decided I wanted my hair either half up/half down or all the way down for the wedding day (just because that's how I'm most comfortable), so I scheduled another (free) consultation with Ladda and we talked about it. That was totally my preference and not at all reflective of her work.
By the time that consultation was over, I felt REALLY good about my day-of look. We talked about increasing the smoky eye a bit more and how I'd wear my hair, and on the day of, she NAILED it! My hair and make up turned out BEAUTIFULLY! I asked her about 3 times to keep going darker/smokier around my eyes, but her approach is one I respect...start off light and go darker as the client asks for it. She was super patient with me and even got excited when I asked for smokier and smokier, until BAM! It was perfect. And what a sweetheart...she told me she woke up that day excited for me and was happy to see me!
My ONLY slight complaint was that right before I went to take my pre-wedding pictures on the day-of, I had a piece of hair that seemed to come out of it's bobby pin and I had to have someone pin it for me, but it wasn't too big of a deal. Througout the night I had to push a few of the wider-mouthed bobby pins back in place and I thought maybe my hair would look like it fell in the later pictures, but no...it stayed strong all the way until I took it out, and looked GREAT throughout the night, even in pictures (I also PILED on hairspray). And the ONLY time I cried that day was while dancing with my daddy, and the makeup stayed in place and the only thing I reapplied or touched-up that night was my lip gloss! And I looked beautiful from start to finish!
I would HIGHLY recommend this salon, and espeically Ladda to do your hair AND airbrush makeup. She will be on the same page as you and make you look how YOU want to look, not how she or anyone else thinks you SHOULD look. And she puts your mind at ease and will meet with you to make sure you are 100% confident about how you'll look that day! The prices may be on the high end by about $10, give or take, but it's a really high-end salon, so I know I got what I paid for and felt good about that.
NOTE: They don't take tips on credit cards, so be prepared with a cash tip or tip by personal check!
Go to Ladda (or one of their other highly qualified staff) at Jose Luis for your wedding day beauty needs...you'll be really happy with the outcome!!!
