A beautiful, smooth and enjoyable experience!
Linda's presence all throughout our time together on my wedding day was warm and kind. Her passion for this industry truly showed and her perfection was flawless.
I can't express how happy I am with my bridal hair and makeup. She created exactly what I envisioned and well and truly exceeded my expectations. I am so thankful I had Linda to help us all look our best on my wedding day. I couldn't recommend her service any more, especially planning a wedding abroad. Her guidance and advice even before the day was extremely valuable. You will not be disappointed. I wish I could give 10 stars. Mahalo xxx

Nailed it!
Linda absolutely nailed it and I have never felt so beautiful as I did on the day of my wedding. She also did MOBs makeup, MOGs hair/makeup, and a bridesmaid hair. Everyone looked fantastic. Linda uses all high end products and it definitely showed! The makeup looked great late into the evening and Linda was super patient with several scheduling changes throughout the day. Super easy to work with and highly recommend! 🌺 Mahalo 🌺

Linda is amazing!!!
Linda is wonderful – she’s super talented and is just a great person. She did my makeup and hair for my wedding, my mom’s makeup and my sister’s hair. I live in the desert, so when I go somewhere with humidity, my hair gets crazy. I showed her a photo of what I’d like my hair to look like and she did it perfectly – and my hair wasn’t frizzy! I don’t wear a lot of makeup normally, but she made my skin glow and I still looked like myself for the wedding, which was very important to me. It was pretty hot during the ceremony, but my makeup stayed on (even with me crying! Lol) for the entire ceremony and reception. I highly recommend her. She is passionate about what she does and really takes the time to understand what you’d like. We all looked great for my big day!
