Choosing Meleah for my wedding day was one of the best decisions I made! She was an absolute dream to work with. Her expertise and creativity made me feel like a true bride. My hair and makeup were flawless and lasted throughout the entire celebration. Not only did she enhance my natural features, but she also managed to capture the exact style I envisioned. Meleah is not just a talented professional, but also a calming presence during the chaos of a wedding day. I cannot recommend her enough for her skill, professionalism, and the joy she brought to my special day. Thank you for making me look and feel beautiful!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:

She was incredible to work with for our choreographed dance. I came into it with anxiety around what my partner and I wanted to accomplish in such short time. Meleah guided us and taught us so many moves and helped us with our choreography in such short time that we have put together a great dance very quickly with plenty of time to spare for practice. Her energy also made the process of learning fun. She also did my partners hair and makeup for our engagement shoot and the results were stunning. I highly recommend her for any of her services. -

Maleah is an amazing makeup artist and stylist. She did an excellent job for me and my sister's hair and make up on my wedding day. I received so many compliments about my look. She is very caring and truly a professional. She also gave me and my husband dance lessons for our first dance and everyone praised how well we danced. She went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and helped make our special day even more special. I would definitely recommend Maleah for makeup/styling and dance lessons!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Natasha, you are definitely one of my favorite brides so far!
Your kindness, appreciation and general awesomeness made the entire process so much fun. And your sister was just as nice.

Amazing Hair Stylist!!!
My experience with Meleah was absolutely fabulous! I cannot even express how much I loved working with her! From the hair trial to the actual wedding day, Meleah was the best! She was very prompt in her responses to me when I reached out and very thorough in her instructions on how to prep my hair before our first appointment. Meleah’s energy and lovely personality made everything so much more fun. She came over to my house to do my hair on my wedding day and having her bright energy there truly made the start of my wedding day so much better. And MOST IMPORTANTLY, my hair was amazing! The curls held perfectly all day and I truly felt like a princess. She makes sure you LOVE your hair and shows you her progress along the way with pictures. She really hyped me up all morning and you can tell she loves her job. She is truly the best and I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Meleah!!!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Elyse! You were amazing as well. Awesome results take teamwork and you prepped your hair perfectly. Thanks for sharing the photos...they were spectacular. -

Meleah & her team were great to work with! Meleah did my hair & makeup for my destination wedding in San Diego. I did not have a trail but I wasn't worried bc Meleah asked for inspo pictures for my hair / makeup prior and even gave me prep work to ensure my hair and makeup lasted all day and night & it did! She was so wonderful and easy to work with throughout the planning process as well as the day of. All of my family who also did their hair/makeup were really impressed with their work and super satisfied with how they looked. I definitely recommend booking Meleah for your wedding/next big event!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
You all were so great to work with. I loved the energy and love they clearly had for you. You have an amazing group of friends and family. thank you! -

Absolutely wonderful!
Meleah is absolutely wonderful!
I got married a few months ago in July and found her through the Knot App and loved her style for hair and makeup. Meleah is very organized and thoughtful when it comes to your style. Her and her stylists also did hair and makeup for my whole bridal party. Everyone looked amazing!
In addition to hair and makeup, my husband and I also took dance lessons with Meleah. My husband and I were both inexperienced with professional dancing but Meleah was amazing in guiding us as she choreographed a dance to a song my husband and I chose. We nailed the dance at the wedding! 11/10, would recommend going to Meleah for both hair and makeup, and definitely for dance lessons!
Meleah, thank you so much for all of your help. Steven and I appreciate all the time you took for our wedding. Hope to see you again soon for some dance lessons!

Hi guys, you were one of my all time favorite couples! You and Steven worked endlessly to get it right and it all paid off. Well done! We loved working with your bridal party as well...such a lively bunch! It was a pleasure from start to finish. Big hug to you and Steven. -

Lisane Sent on 08/18/2023Meleah is Amazing!
Meleah is amazing! I was so nervous about getting my hair and make up done for my wedding but everything went great! Meleah stayed in touch with me before the big day, she sent me amazing instructions and help me with the piece for my hair. I explained to her that I was not a make up person and her magic hands made me feel like a princess. She is really friendly and kind. She did not help me only on my big day but she also gave all kind of tips to deal with my curly hair and products for my face. You will not regret hiring her to have your hair and make up done.Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Lisane, you were so nice, warm and generally great to work with! You looked beautiful. I am always here for you if you have questions or need beauty advice. -

Caitlin B. Sent on 10/26/2023An amazing addition to our wedding day!
We took five dance lessons with Meleah and performed an incredible choreographed dance at our reception. Neither of us had much ballroom dancing experience, but she created a beautiful set of choreography that was one of our favorite parts of the day. Our friends and family were super impressed! The learning experience was also a blast. Meleah was very encouraging and made us feel confident and willing to try almost anything. I’d highly recommend Meleah for her dance instruction!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Caitlin, you and Jon did an incredible job! You worked so hard and really pulled it all together. You were bold enough to try new things and brave the lifts... Well done! -

Maddy C. Sent on 01/24/2023Makeup and Hair Artist
One of the hardest parts of planning my wedding was finding a makeup artist to respond to my queries, but Meleah was the first to do so and she did it so timely! I opted not to do a trial session for my courthouse ceremony and yet she still made the appointment seamless despite having never met her before! Both my hair and makeup looked stunning (and stayed the entire day), and she even gave me some great pointers for my eyebrows and skincare. She truly is a master of her craft and I would recommend her to any bride who wants to look and feel amazing on their special day! Thanks Meleah!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Maddy. I'm so glad we met. You are definitely a favorite bride for this year. You looked amazing and I'm so glad you were happy. -

Melissa R. Sent on 12/28/2022Kind, experienced hair & makeup artist!
Meleah got back to me within minutes of reaching out and was such a joy to talk to during the wedding prep phases. Meleah and her crew did 23 total services for myself and my bridesmaids + family. They were absolutely phenomenal -- on time, took their time with each person, ensuring they felt glamorous, and crafting perfect looks for our wedding. They finished well ahead of schedule and were able to have a relaxing time before the wedding began. Would strongly recommend for anyone looking for a kind, talented, experienced hair and makeup artist in San Diego!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Melissa. You were so awesome and your group was really fun, playful and a joy to work with. -

Catherine T. Sent on 12/21/2022Meleah was the BEST to work with for my wedding
From planning to prep to the day of the wedding, Meleah was so helpful and knowledgable, and extremely talented at both hair and make up. I (the bride) do not typically wear make up so I wanted a more natural look, and Meleah nailed it on the test run and again on the wedding day. She also did the most stunning twisted bun for my hair that looked elegant and stay put through the entire night. Meleah was very helpful in answering and offering guidance through the entire process. She even offered to jump on Zoom calls with my bridesmaids to talk through any question they may have. Additionally, she went above and beyond in helping with prepping the veil so it fit perfectly with the hair. I highly recommend Meleah and her team, they do an outstanding job with hair and make up and will be a phenomenal addition to your vendor team.Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Catherine. I was my pleasure to help. I loved your hair and makeup and I'm glad to hear it lasted all evening long. Your maids were awesome and it made the job every easy. -

Made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day
Hair and makeup was by far the most difficult vendor for me to book when planning my wedding. When I found Meleah (recommended to me by my coordinator) she was the third HMUA I had tried and I'm so happy I found her. She took all of my notes from my first two hair and makeup trials that didn't go well with other artists and asked me questions to make sure she knew what I was going for. Our trial went so well and I was excited to immediately book her.
On the day of, it was her and two other HMUAs that came to our Air BnB. They came on time, left on time, and made me/my bridesmaids/mother of the groom feel and look so pretty! There's so much pressure to look your best on your wedding day and after getting out of Meleah's chair, I felt so calm and ready to get the rest of the day going! Every time I look at our pictures, I'm so happy with how the hair and makeup came out. And it lasted all the way through the wedding night, even after all the dancing/sweating/happy crying. Book Meleah and you'll be glad you did!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Bree. I felt an immediate connection as soon as I met you. I knew we'd get along perfectly and analyzing your previous trials helped me create you perfect look. Thanks for being awesome. -

Meleah is Incredible!
Meleah is fantastic to work with! All of her experience and knowledge of skin types, hair color, and texture made me really feel at ease during the whole process. I chose to get my makeup trial done for my engagement photos and it turned out amazing! I don't wear much makeup working from home, nor do my bridesmaids and she & her team did an incredible job. It looked so natural and we felt stunningly beautiful!!
She did a great job ensuring we were all prepared for the day-of. We sent inspirational makeup & hair photos ahead of time and how we need to prep our hair and skin too.
During my makeup trial, she showed me a picture of the hairstyle I described and one she recently did. It was exactly what I wanted, so I didn't even do a hair trial. And my hair was so gorgeous, I received so many compliments. Our venue was outside on the water during the ceremony and all of our pictures were on the water. I was worried the wind would blow out my curls, but it stayed perfectly curled and in place the entire day!
I would hands down recommend Meleah!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Amanda. You were a dream to work with and I'm so happy that you were as thrilled as I was with the result. -

Michele C. Sent on 10/15/2022An absolute gem to work with!
I was blessed to stumble upon Meleah for my makeup just a few months prior to my wedding. She took the time to chat with me about my style, preferencea, etc., and made sure I was happy with my trial before we executed a contract. She was extremely flexible and my wedding party loved their makeup! She even provided a few dance lessons for our 1st dance! :) Meleah was so wonderful to work with; such a beautiful spirit and personality.Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
You were a joy to work with Michele. I'm so glad we were able to do dance lessons as well as makeup. -

Would 10/10 Recommend!
Meleah is absolutely incredible! Her hair/make up services and dance lessons are phenomenal! My husband and I took just a few dance lessons with Meleah and she made us look and feel like we were pros! She's a great instructor and really knows how to teach! Her hair and make up is also beautiful! I told her I wanted to look like a mermaid for my wedding and almost all of my guests told me I looked like a mermaid!! I would absolutely recommend her services to anyone getting married. She does a fabulous job!Makeup, Hair & Dance By Meleah's reply:
Thanks Jessica. You guys were a dream to work with and you have the most amazing hair that I've seen in a long time. We need more mermaids like you! -
