    My dream wedding

    Cristina did my hair for my wedding and I’m so thankful I found her given such short notice and current pandemic. She did such an amazing job, everyone at my wedding was asking for her contact information!

    Glamorous!

    Cristina was literally a heaven send for my whole wedding ordeal! She was so easy to get ahold of and very detailed when we talked from the beginning. After meeting in person her personality and sheer talent completely won me over! After a lot of online searching I found I wanted glamorous touchable waves that lasted all night and a classic makeup look. She listened to me about my hair and makeup wants and did exactly as I asked! I can’t begin to say just how many compliments I received on my hair and makeup that lasted the WHOLE night. After kissing, drinking and dancing I still had the most beautiful hair and makeup as I did hours earlier. Seriously amazing! If you’re looking for someone not only extremely talented in hair and makeup, but someone who is a joy and will help enhance your day off experience this is the girl!

    Wedding hair

    Cristina is amazing! I have gone to Cristina for quite some time now and let me just say, she always satisfies and gives you exactly what you want. Cristina did my hair for my wedding back in May and I am so glad she was able to on my special day. My hair looked so perfect and lasted ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT. Cristina will meet your expectations and more!

    Cristina was quick to respond when I first reached out to her. She was able to meet with me pretty quick for a bridal trial. She did my makeup and a quick updo and she was easy to conversate! Meeting with her was convenient because she came to my home.
    The day of my wedding she was on time and gave me the perfect bridal look. She also helped me calm down with all of the chaos happening around us. Cristina also did my bridesmaids hair and makeup and they also loved the final look! I recommend Cristina because not only is she professional but she is also great at what she does!

    I had the honor to hire Cristina for my wedding makeup and Viviana did my hair. I couldn't have imagined it any better. They both are very professional and do a amazing job. I love the fact that Cristina always replied to my tex or phone calls and she was very understanding and flexible to my needs. I'm very pleased with their work. I will definitely use their services again if needed.

    Married on 4/22/17

    Cristina was amazing! Cristina was great about responding quickly, answering questions I had, and listened to my concerns. During my trail, she listened to my concerns regarding eye sensitivity to eyelashes and recommended individual lashes which she applied on my wedding day. She also asked for inspiration photos so that she could get a better understanding of my style. She not only did my makeup and hair for my bridal shower and wedding, but now currently still does my hair. The day of my wedding was pretty hectic, however Cristina arrived on time, was professional, and delivered beyond expectation. I am so glad I met her not only is she sweet and patient, but she is also very knowledgable and is passionate about her craft.

    My bridal party and I love Glam and Glow Makeup! Cristina recently did the make-up for my wedding on May 31, 2014 in Riverside. She was super punctual to both my makeup trial and the getting ready portion of the wedding day. She completed beautiful makeup for six bridal party members, my mother, and me, and we were all super impressed with the work she did. Cristina made every girl look amazing, and I could not have been happier with the job she did on my makeup. I was nervous about how I would look on my wedding day, and Cristina created the exact look I had dreamed of for my special day. She was very patient when my hair took a little longer than expected, was super nice to everybody, and is extremely affordable. I would highly recommend her for wedding makeup and beyond!

    Cristina is a wonderful makeup artist!!! She made me look absolutely beautiful for my wedding and I got several compliments throughout the night. She worked well with the hairstylist that I selected and had the ability to handle several girls in my wedding party of all ages. I would 100% re-book with her if I need a makeup artist in the future. She even waited around for me to put on my dress for last minute touch ups.

    Blown Away

    My wedding hairstylist that I had found 2 years prior to my wedding and booked cancelled on me 2 days before my wedding. While I was of course upset, he did recommend Cristina and I reached out to her immediately. She responded right away and we confirmed her for my wedding. When she came wedding day to do my hair she was on time and ready to go. She was so professional and sweet. I told her how I wanted my hair but that I liked 2 different styles of curls. She came up with a style using both of the curl types I liked. It blew me away how incredible it looked. She is beyond talented, professional and friendly. Everything a bride would want on her wedding day. Im so happy my former hairstylist cancelled because Cristina is the way to go!

    So glad she answered me back :)

    I emailed her on my birthday about 2 months away from my original intended wedding date. At that point she said it was still open. Before we pushed with the dates, I asked for prices and all that. Her reviews are what made me chose her and rates as well since the others are more and the same.
    Since my then husband had a few delays due to visa processing, we had to move our wedding date almost two weeks from the reserved one. Believe me when I tell you it's hard to schedule last minute changes with your HMUA and chapel that we chose. Good thing I found a middle ground where all is fixed. Prior to the reservation being 'reserved', Cristina asked for a deposit of $50.00 which I happily paid because you can never trust who will show up and waste your time. I asked Cristina to have my hair up for the ceremony and half down for the reception where I can easily take off the bobby pins and put it down myself. Mission accomplished. Photo above shows the half down do.
    As much as I love to tell you the rates, just email Cristina and she'll be happy to disclose that with you. If she does not reply back, email her again and she definitely will. There are times when she does not respond to me and the next day I'll just email her again with additional questions.
    Also, I did not do the trial. I didn't have the budget for it plus it all turned out amazing. She also did my mom's hair and my mother in law's make up. They both loved it. We started 0600 and ended a little over 0900 which is partly my fault since I didn't dry my hair 100% before she arrived. Cristina is on time and extremely professional. Most of all, she's so welcoming that you won't get tired of her making you feel pretty. I'm so glad I chose her for my wedding day and no doubt recommend her to others for any special occasions.
    :)
