    Veronica is the best!

    Veronica is the best! I wanted minimal makeup for my wedding day and she absolutely delivered while giving me advice about how professional makeup could look different in professional photography / under various lightings.

    During my trial, she spent almost 3 hours on my hair and make up to make sure everything was the way I wanted, not including an additional 45 mins we spent discussing and taking photos. She asked detailed questions about my venue, dress, photographer, etc. so that she could make sure my hair and makeup fit with everything. I wore falsies for the first time and she was super accommodating to find the shortest, most natural looking falsies per my request.

    On my wedding day, I loved my hair and make up, as well as the moms’ and wedding party’s. So many people told me that I looked beautiful or that they loved my make up, and that the make up was still holding up really well at the end of the night.

    Thank you Veronica for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day!

    Veronica brought my vision to reality

    Veronica was my makeup and hair (M+H) artist for my engagement photoshoot and elopement day. At the trial meeting, I showed her a few ideas on how I wanted to look on my big day. She asked to see a photo of my wedding dress to ensure that it all coordinated well and gave her honest, professional opinions. Both times that we met, I left feeling and looking like a gorgeous bride.

    Veronica brought my vision to reality. I can't explain how much I loved the outcome of my M+H on both days. It was an absolute dream. Veronica made the whole experience memorable. She was so easy to talk to and amazingly talented! I really admire her attention to detail and the extra mile she went to make sure I loved the way I looked before finishing.

    Although we already eloped this year, my husband and I plan to celebrate our marriage with our family and friends next year! I have already booked Veronica for our next big day in 2021 and can't wait to have my M+H done by her again!!!! :D

    Fantastic experience

    My bridesmaids and I loved working with Kelly Zhang Studio. Emily did my hair and makeup as well as my Matron of Honor and Vianne worked on the rest of the bridesmaids. Emily was great to work with from the trial to the day of. I loved my hair and makeup and it held up really well throughout the day. As I and my bridesmaids don't usually wear make-up, we all wanted a natural look and we were all very happy with our results. Emily and Vianne took their time with each of us and we never felt rushed. They even had time after to do touch ups on anyone who needed it. I would very much recommend Kelly Zhang Studio to anyone who is looking for hair and makeup for their wedding.

    Kelly is the best!!

    Can’t imagine my makeup and hair without Kelly’s magic touch on our wedding day!

    The entire experience from booking to postponing, rescheduling and then final wedding day was as smooth as it can be! I didn’t have to think too much about the look and specific hairstyle, Kelly just made it happen, naturally. Still in love with my ponytail on my wedding day😊😘

    Made me, my mom, and my bridesmaids look and feel so beautiful!

    I hired Veronica as my hair and makeup artist for my wedding day. Because I live on the East Coast, I wasn't able to get out to LA to do my trial until a few days before the wedding. Nevertheless, Veronica took my vision (loose curls in a half up/half down; glam natural makeup with glowy skin) and made me look and feel so great after my trial (pic of me in the collared shirt). On the wedding day, Veronica and Emily did hair and makeup for me, my six bridesmaids, my mom, and MIL. They did a fantastic job personalizing each woman's preferences and doing touch ups. My mom, who never wears makeup and was concerned about this initially, was so happy with how Veronica made her look. My hair and makeup lasted all day and night, through multiple outfit changes. I couldn't recommend Veronica or the Kelly Zhang team more highly.

    Flawless and Natural Glowy Makeup!

    I'm particular with my make up and wanted a natural look with a glow and Kelly Zhang Studio fit my needs. I used Kelly Zhang studio for my wedding anniversary. Veronica was my makeup/hair artist for my wedding anniversary on 4/28/23 and she is so sweet and detailed-oriented. She provided a touchup kit on the day of, too. I'm happy with my hair and makeup that night. I was more impressed that both hair and makeup stayed put throughout the night after all the dancing! Thank you Veronica!!!

    Fantastic experience!

    Valarie from Kelly Zhang did my hair and makeup for my recent micro-wedding, and I couldn't possibly be any happier with her or the studio's services. From the very first time I reached out via email, the staff was helpful and super responsive in helping me select a makeup artist (Valarie) who had the soft, romantic makeup style I was looking for. In addition, the staff we super helpful when I needed to reschedule and change my location for services from my original wedding date and venue to my new, COVID-friendly micro-wedding date and venue. Valarie truly wowed me during my trial, and she delivered big time on the day of with gorgeous hair and makeup that was EXACTLY what I wanted. I have never felt more beautiful in my life. Valarie and her assistant were also warm, friendly, and fun to chat with -- they felt like a part of my bridal party as we were getting ready on the big day. I cannot reccomend Kelly Zhang generally and Valarie specifically more highly!

    Flawless experience =)

    Not sure if the KZ team needs another 5-star review, but I wanted to leave my comments specifically for Veronica (make-up artist) and Caroline (coordinator). From my first day of inquiry all the way to after the wedding day, Caroline was always such a delight to communicate with. She was always so sweet, and flexible. We had a lot of back-and-forth on assigning me to a hair/makeup artist because my first choice was unavailable for my wedding date. Throughout the whole process of matching me up with somebody, Caroline was patient and offered all types of suggestions based on personal style and wedding aesthetic. She ultimately matched me up with Veronica and I am so grateful that she did!

    Veronica is exactly my type of girl - honest and straight to the point with no added frills. I used my trial with Veronica the morning before my engagement shoot in east San Diego county. Although I was going for a slightly different hairstyle and because i was so indecisive, Veronica was able to try both hairstyles on me. I loved how everything turned out and most importantly, the make-up and hair stayed intact the entire day!

    On the wedding day, Veronica and Kadet showed up right on time at 5:30am and got straight to work. Getting ready for something with friends has always been my favorite part of going out or a big event, so the laid back, fun vibe that we had with Veronica and Kadet present was perfect. It even made me feel so at ease when they commented that they were ahead of schedule which rarely happens. A bride definitely wants to be hearing that! My one and only recommendation is that you should test out your skin to see if it receives airbrushing well. That was my mistake because I realized that my skin didn't take it too well and I found myself doing touch-up multiple times throughout the night. Other than that, I loved how my peachy makeup look and textured low-bun hair turned out.

    SoCal brides are lucky to have an endless choice of amazing HMUA teams, but Kelly Zhang Studios stands out not only because of their professionalism, but also because of the quality work they provide. I thought that their prices were pretty reasonable comparatively to other high-end studios out there and you are definitely getting what you pay for. Other than that, huge thank you to Veronica, Caroline and Kadet for their exceptional service and skills! All my bridesmaids and even my mom (who is very picky about makeup) loved their looks so much!

    Beautiful and professional!

    My make up artist was Veronica. She is truly a professional who is passionate about making you look the best you can on your special day. I have uneven eyelids but Veronica was able to make my eyes look beautiful! I really can't recommend her and Kelly Zhang Studio enough. There were seriously no bad angles of me at all on my wedding day; that's how good the make up was!

    Priscilla was Awesome!

    The KZ team was awesome!! Special shout out to Priscilla and Yuzu!

    I was looking for a make-up company that can do Asian faces and the KZ team did not disappoint!

    Everything was super fast and seamless. From the moment I emailed the team, I got a quick quote with the breakdown of all of the costs. Cindy the coordinator, was responsive and super helpful! She helped me picked the perfect make-up artist for my special day.

    Priscilla did my make-up trial and my wedding make-up. She was super friendly and made our sessions so much fun. I wanted a more natural look and she did just that. It also stayed flawless for the entire day! Special thanks to Yuzu as well for making my bridesmaids so beautiful!

    I would definitely recommend the KZ team to any bride!

    Yuzu is awesome!

    I was looking for someone who had experience with Asian hair and makeup (especially since I have monolids, it can be tricky for some who don't know how to work with our type of eyes). Yuzu was the one!

    I did my trial on the day of my bridal shower (I wasn't too worried about people seeing me, my then fiance actually saw me too) and she gave me her professional opinion on my hair and makeup. She listened to my concerns and fixed the problem areas.

    On the day of the wedding, my makeup and hair held through hours of wedding activities! My face gets oily quickly and none of the makeup, eye shadow, or eyeliner started fading or "melting off." I loved how my makeup looked on my wedding day!

    Jenny at Kelly Zhang Studio

    Kelly Zhang studio is amazing! Jenny did my bridal trial and hair and makeup the wedding day and did an amazing job! My hair and makeup stayed on the whole day and looked great in pictures. She captured exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much!

    One of my favorite vendors!

    Veronica Lau did my hair and makeup for both my wedding and my best friend's wedding and I was extremely happy with her work. For my wedding day, I expressed to her my concerns about not wanting too much makeup since I don't usually wear any and she totally understood what I was going for - an elevated version of myself. I felt like a princess on my wedding day. The makeup was very natural but still bridal and my loose updo was perfect. When it came time for my best friend's wedding, she suggested I do a little bit "darker" with my makeup (basically just a little bit more eye shadow) since I was a guest and not the bride and I was hesitant but went for it and so glad I did. She also has a very funny personality and will be completely honest with you about what she thinks works and does not work and is spot on! I would recommend her without hesitation.

    Throughout the booking process I coordinated with Caroline and she was so sweet and helpful!

    Absolutely perfect!

    Oh my goodness I do not have enough words for how much I loved Kelly Zhang Studio and my experience for my wedding! I reached out two weeks before my wedding and received an instant reply from Caroline who was AMAZING throughout the whole process. She was kind, patient, descriptive, clear, and made everything from the trial to the day-of so easy! I sent my "inspiration" photos to Caroline for my hair and makeup and she matched me with an artist who fit my style and look the most :) She then sent me the Pinterest of my artist so I could look at her prior works of art! :) It was the best! Thank you, Caroline!

    I went to my trial and fell in love with the studio! It's clean, so cute, and everyone there was so kind and energetic. My mom came with me and it was one of our favorite mother/daughter wedding experiences. My makeup and hair artist was Valarie. I LOVED her! She instantly felt like a friend. Beyond her awesome personality and warmth, her skills as a makeup and hair artist are indescribable. I felt so beautiful and amazing even on the day of my trial. She listened and was attentive to my wishes and implemented everything I was hoping for beautifully. They took photos of my hair and makeup and followed up with communication to determine if I wanted to change or alter anything for the big day :) I didn't! Valarie captured everything I was hoping for and more! My mom and two sisters were also getting their hair and makeup done on the day of the wedding, so Caroline sent a schedule for the big day and that made it even easier to organize and feel prepared on the day of the wedding :)

    On the day of the wedding, Valarie just completely blew me away. After she was done with my hair and makeup, I looked in the mirror and cried. She made me feel so beautiful and confident. My husband also cried when he saw me for the first time and said "I am just taken away at how beautiful you are!" and I truly owe so much of that to Valarie and her skills! Valarie even sent me a message the following day that was so heartfelt and I truly believe her and I will be friends in the future! Before she left she gave me a kit with powder, my lip color, hair spray, and more to ensure that I had everything I needed to touch up for the rest of the day!

    My mom and sisters had another artist, Mieko, who was equally as amazing! They felt transformed and were so happy with their hair and makeup! She did touch ups before she left and again, captured their desired look perfectly!

    Overall, it was an amazing experience and truly made my wedding process and day so enjoyable, peaceful and exciting! I would 110% recommend anyone to Kelly Zhang Studios!!

    10/10! Would definitely use them again and will be recommending their services to EVERYONE I know. Valarie was amazing on my wedding day and prior to that, Cindy was great at setting everything up and handling all my questions and concerns. They helped make my day just a little bit less chaotic on my big day and my hair/makeup lasted the entire day and well into the night.

    I've had a really wonderful experience with Kelly and her team. I had very bad experience with other makeup artist. But Kelly did a great job on me. I loved it! Kelly truly felt like my close friends with me on my wedding day. She is there in a very early morning, She is patience and calmness in dealing with the ordinary wedding stresses. I want to thank them for doing such a great job and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for talented makeup artists.

    The team at Kelly Zhang studio were outstanding from start to finish. From coordinating trials, to contract and pricing, to finding an artist, they made it easy and fun. They were all so professional and very accommodating. I had Jennifer Thai as my artist and she did amazing work. People are still raving about my hair and makeup. I highly recommend this studio.

    I had Valarie as my main HMU artist and she is wonderful! I loved working with her. She was very responsive to me when I wanted to change things here and there, and was very helpful during our makeup and hair trials. On the wedding day, the entire team was so much fun and upbeat (great thing to have when you start HMU at 6 am!). Everyone looked beautiful, and they gave a really cute little kit for touch ups during the day. Highly recommend them! My HMU looked AMAZING!!!

    Mieko Ito and an assistant came to our hotel to do make-up for the bride and bridal party. They were able to do hair and makeup for 6 people in 5 hours. Mieko did a great job with hair and makeup . She was easy to work with and very efficient. She was able to curl Asian hair (as long as you don't use conditioner for a few days) which is hard to do. She did a great job with makeup and I got a lot of complements. They are a great value, very organized, and easy to work with. We would recommend them to others in the future!

    I had seen Kelly Zhang Studio mentioned in numerous wedding blogs, so I knew that booking them would be a safe bet. I ended up booking Jenny Ung as my hair and makeup artist for my wedding, and I am so happy with the results. I looked through so many photos of brides to look for hair and makeup inspiration, but nothing was quite what I wanted, so I ended up having to give Jenny a description of what I wanted, and she did a great job with it. The hair and makeup trial was really important, as I thought I wanted one look, but ended up having to adjust it because I changed my mind afterwards. Since I didn't have a clear picture of what I wanted and couldn't go back to the studio for a re-trial (because I live in Chicago), I was nervous that I wouldn't like my look on the day of. However, Jenny did an amazing job regardless. She has really great taste and was able to put together a perfect look for me! Plus, her fun and upbeat personality made the 3-4 hour sessions much more enjoyable.
    We also hired 4 assistants to do hair and makeup for my bridal party and family members, and they all did great. Everyone was friendly, easy to work with, and right on schedule. Maria, who does the scheduling, is very helpful and quick to respond to emails. Thanks to the whole team!

    I've used professional make up service twice in my life before my wedding. Both times, I either cried my make up off in horror or excused myself to wipe off the atrocity on my face. After months of researching Asian make up artists (because that's what a girl with uneven eyes requires), I found Kelly Zhang Studio, and ultimately Mieko.

    I had a make up trial with Mieko about 6 weeks out and, through no fault of her own, I totally changed the look for the wedding. I must have sent Cindy and Maria a novel of an email detailing what I liked and didn't like with visual references. They were so helpful in forwarding my feedback to Mieko who took it like a champ and even went out to Sephora to purchase products that aligned more closely with my requests. Although there were a few technical problems with my make up trial (smudges, eyelash popped off, waterline ran) I was confident that she would be able to fix it at the wedding.

    The entire team was incredibly communicative and helpful during the booking process, trial, and the week leading up. On the day of the wedding, Mieko and her assistant Lisa arrived about 20 minutes early and were ahead of schedule by 30 minutes the rest of the day. They took care of 1 bride, 1 groom, and 7 other ladies (make up only).

    When my aunt's eyelash started falling off, they were fixed it as many times as they needed to. They were able to work with me when I requested my make up to be done first (for a 3pm tea ceremony) and then hair later (for the 5pm wedding). Mieko was so calm and accommodating. Never once did I hesitate to ask for exactly what I wanted because she remedied it immediately.

    Something that couples should consider is make up for the groom, which Kelly Zhang Studio offers. It only took 15 min and he looked like himself but flawless—they smoothed out his complexion, covered blemishes and under eye circles, and made sure he didn't look washed out or shine for the entire night despite the hours of dancing.

    I found out about Kelly Zhang Studio from my wedding planner who recommended her and her team very highly. After looking through some of her before and afters online, I was sold! I booked my wedding day hair and makeup trial with Kelly on the day of my engagement photo shoot. My mom booked a hair and makeup trial with one of the other stylists. The studio is so cute and chic, we felt instantly at home and completely pampered when we arrived. We were both blown away with our finished product! Kelly is incredible with both hair and makeup. I felt perfectly polished and beautiful but not overly done-up. My mom looked amazing, too! We decided to definitely book Kelly and her team for the wedding day. I knew my mom, my bridesmaids, and I would look incredible.

    On the day of the wedding, Kelly and two of her other stylists arrived. They got right to it. Kelly began on my mom and the other stylists worked on my bridesmaids. They were quick, yet thorough and everyone ended up beautiful and perfect! Kelly is so sweet and has a very calming demeanor which meant a lot to me on that day. She did my hair and makeup after everyone else was done. She paid attention to every detail, every eyelash, every brush stroke. I ended up looking the best I have EVER LOOKED! Thank you, Kelly! I felt so beautiful that day. The makeup and hair stayed put ALL day and ALL night! Through the sun and sweat and all the dancing! Not only did we all feel so beautiful, we all looked great in the photos. So glad to have chosen Kelly and her team. They are true hair and makeup artists!

    I was so impressed with her salon during my hair and makeup trial, I have actually continued to go there for regular haircuts and color! It will be my go-to salon from now on for sure!

    I had Leanne for my wedding day and she is just wonderful. I loved my trial and my wedding day hair and make up. She came to the hotel early to set up, so she could start right on time. I highly recommend this studio and Leanne.

    If you're looking for makeup & hair services with an easy booking process, personable staff, & highly trained artists who use quality products, then look no further than Kelly Zhang Studios.

    My orig. MUA from another company bailed so in my search for a replacement, I made a spreadsheet to figure out who offered the best value for all the services I’d need (as any true planner/smart shopper would). Although they weren't the cheapest, I really liked their work & Kelly's responsiveness.

    I shared my Pinterest with her to give her a sense of the look I wanted. She then suggested artists that were available for my date that also had expertise in the style I wanted. I reviewed their portfolios thereafter & chose to go with Jennifer Thai for the trial session.

    Jen was attentive/knowledgeable. I asked for 2 looks: an updo & a half-up/half-down do. I was so in love with BOTH of my looks from the trial that I booked her for my wedding on the spot. Also, Maria followed up promptly with my Before & After pics & to see how the look held up for the rest of the day.

    The booking process was easy & hassle-free! They didn't try to upsell me (like other vendors). They’ll assign an assisting artist to help you stay on schedule if you book 6+ services. I highly suggest this. Services I booked: bridal makeup+hair, makeup for 3 bridesmaids & 2 moms.

    Jen Thai & her assisting artist, Veronica, arrived 30mins early to set-up. We started at 8:30am & finished at 1pm. Jen recreated my look from the trial PERFECTLY. I had a few dark spots from old zits that she covered up. She made my skin FLAWLESS & I was a GLOWING, BEAUTIFUL BRIDE!

    Jen gave me touch-up kit all labeled for my convenience. Honestly, I only needed to touch up my face once & my lips twice. My look lasted til the very end (10pm). My mom hates when I wear any makeup at all but she said it looked light/natural. All of my friends & family were fans as well. I highly recommend them to ANYONE, not just brides!
