    The Best Hair & Makeup Ever

    I am obsessed with Lauren and her team. They did me, my mother, my husband's mother, and my bridesmaid's hair & makeup for my wedding, and all of us were totally in love with what they did. Most of my friends are married or have been in a ton of weddings and they ALL said this was their favorite hair & makeup they have ever had. Lauren and her team were so attentive, thoughtful, and calming during the pre-wedding trial process and day-of events. We were all so happy and they really helped us feel extra confident for the day :). LOVE Lauren and her team - book them...you will be THRILLED and will look amazing.

    Hair and Makeup Wonder Team

    Lauren and her team were so great and it felt like I was hanging out with friends. They were very professional and asked all the right questions when it came to how I wanted to look and feel on my wedding day. I never felt pressured to purchase any of the optional add ons which was lovely. My wedding was less than 2 weeks before Lauren's own wedding and you'd never have known it as she was so calm, kind and professional. I felt so confident and beautiful on my day thanks to the St. James team.

    Best Makeup/Hair Experience!

    I couldn't recommend St. James Salon more. For our party of 11, they sent out 5 girls to complete hair and makeup for everyone. I loved having everyone at the wedding venue instead of traveling to a salon and they were able to get through everyone in a few hours. I loved working with Lauren in particular, who was extremely professional, made sure her team was on track and put me at ease. 10/10 would recommend to anyone having a wedding in the Napa area!

    Perfection!

    It was just truly perfect. Lauren 100% nailed my vision and I was nervous about it since it was a last minute change but it couldn't have come out looking better! They were my favorite vendor out of everyone!

    Perfect Wedding Looks!

    Lauren and her team were professional, fun, and most importantly, made us all look beautiful! All of my bridesmaids said that their make-up looks were the best that they'd ever had. After my bridal hair and makeup trial, I wanted to make a couple changes and Lauren executed my vision perfectly. We could not have been happier. Thanks, St. James The Salon!

    Simply Amazing

    I had a negative trial experience with another salon and my planner helped me get connected with St. James about a month before my wedding. The level of professionalism and care is out of this world. The team really listened to my wants/needs and wanted to know what didn’t go well with the other salon. My preview session was amazing. For the day of the wedding they perfectly styled hair and makeup for all of my bridesmaids and myself. I highly recommend booking them!!

    Amazing! I got exactly what I wanted

    My experience with Lauren and the entire crew at St James Salon was above and beyond what I could have hoped for!! I wasn’t able to have an in person consultation but they were still able to perfectly understand the look I was going for. I felt totally supported by St James Salon the moment we began working together! They were completely flexible as I made last minute changes & added more guests (who ended up looking amazing as well!). I really can’t recommend them enough!

    The BEST overall experience!

    I cannot speak highly enough about my experience with St. James Salon. The team was attentive and answered emails and phone calls in a very timely manner – even with Covid-19 and natural disasters happening all around us! Every person who had their hair and makeup done was absolutely thrilled with the results – including my mom and aunt who are a little harder to please. I had some notes for the team after my hair and makeup trial and every detail was addressed on the day of our wedding. The team arrived right on time, and even finished early! I was thrilled that 4 hair/makeup stylists were sent so that we did not have to start too early in the morning as well. This made for such a relaxed morning and afternoon with beautiful results when we were done! I cant wait to see more photos from our photographer.

    Amazing team to work with!

    Lauren is amazing to work with! I canceled my wedding twice due to COVID and decided to go for a micro wedding last minute and she worked with me to get a makeup artist and hair stylist to my hotel room even though they already had a wedding scheduled that day.

    The women she sent were fantastic! They were efficient and did everything I wanted. I couldn't have asked for a better team to work with.

    Thank you for making my special day even better!

    Great trial, and I can't wait to re-book for the actual wedding

    St. James Salon was wonderful to work with! Unfortunately, due to COVID restrictions, I wasn't actually able to use them for my wedding, but the hair and makeup tests they did were gorgeous. Everybody was not only kind and friendly, but very health-conscious, and they took all necessary COVID precautions. I look forward to re-booking with them when we host a do-over, hopefully next year.

    Lauren and the ladies at St James are amazing! They are skillful, creative, professional and kind. Not only did they effortlessly bring my wedding day vision to life, they helped me every step of the way to facilitate the planning process. I would highly recommend St James for wedding hair and makeup needs to any bride to be!

    Wedding Day!

    St. James Salon went above and beyond, from my trial hair and make up to the day of! Having such an amazing team with me on my wedding day made being a bride so much more memorable. Lauren communicated with me along the way - she gave me advice on wedding day details that stretched beyond hair and make up to ensure I had the best day imaginable! Most importantly, St James Salon kept me calm and relaxed on my wedding day and reminded me the day was going to fly by so to enjoy every minute of it.

    Great Experience

    I used St. James salon for bridal services. Victoria and Angelina were incredible. They were extremely patient and accommodating. Victoria executed my hair style and makeup perfectly and made me feel so, so beautiful! I would highly recommend this salon for bridal services.

    St. James did an amazing job with hair and make up for my winery wedding!

    Lauren and her team at St. James the Salon did an amazing job with our hair and make up for the wedding. Lauren and her team were professional, personable, and listened to everything myself and bridesmaids wanted. When I had a few changes, Lauren responded right away and had no problem updating my invoice and hair/makeup schedule. The staff met myself, bridesmaids, and mothers at my venue and already had everything set up and began hair and make up right away. When some of the bridesmaid weren't sure what they wanted to do with hair and make up, the team helped and offered suggestions. Everyone's hair/make up came out exactly as I had hoped! When were were finished Lauren and the other stylists touched us all up and made sure everyone had what they needed for the rest of the night. I had a great experience with this salon and would definitely recommend!

    Talented Bridal Hair & Make-Up Team!

    Lauren and her team made my bridesmaids and I (the bride) feel so at ease on my wedding day! The entire process, from reaching out to schedule a consultation, to getting my hair/make-up trial, to the big day, was seamless. Lauren and her team were also so friendly and a breeze to work with. She was one of the few vendors who actually checked in and remained extremely communicative and accommodating throughout the process. Not to mention, my hair and make-up looked amazing and it was exactly what I had hoped for and more! I would highly recommend booking the St. James Salon team to any friends and family who are planning a wedding in the Sonoma wine country area!

    Great Hair and Makeup

    Lauren and her team are awesome! Lauren did my hair and makeup trial and worked with me to get the exact look I was hoping for. She is super nice and her team was lovely. They were on time and kept to schedule, but were funny and personable so we all relaxed and had a good time.

    LOVED working with the St. James team for my wedding day this past September. They are all so kind and accommodating to your needs. Steven did mine, and my bridesmaids makeup for the day of and did an AMAZING job! I felt so beautiful and glamorous and with our early start, I still looked fresh and in tact at the end of the night. Koree did our hair flawlessly, I am still getting complements on my up-do, it was stunning! I would highly recommend this team for any bride, they are a great way to start your special!
    Warmly,

    Great little Salon!

    I was planning my California wedding from TX where I live. I chose my vendors strictly off online reviews as I was not able to travel frequently. I was quite happy with St. James Salon. When I met Lauren (who did my hair and makeup), she was extremely easy-going and professional. We met previous to wedding and she helped me create a look that would be perfect for my wedding day. I had scheduled a family gathering/photo shoot the day before the wedding at a winery and she did a blow out and my makeup beautifully. On the big day, her and her team came to me on location and brought everything we could need. My 4 bridesmaids and step mom all used them as well and loved the final looks. When one bridesmaid was more specific on her looks, her team was extremely patient and understanding to make adjustments as needed. I would recommend Lauren and her team to anyone.

    Lauren with St. James salon Did my hair and make up for my wedding as well as my moms. She did such an amazing job! She made us feel so amazing. It was the best day ever and it started with how she made us feel. She gets to know you and your style and doesn’t try to make you look like someone you aren’t. I didn’t know how I wanted my hair and make up. The way she did it was perfect it was totally me. I couldn’t imagine anyone else working with me the way she did! I got married in July and decided I wanted my hair down. She noticed at the wedding I was way to hot. She pulled me aside and did an amazing updo. Thank you Lauren!!!

    St James Salon was an AMAZING choice for our wedding day. From the trial to the day-of, they were great with accepting my suggestions and scheduling. On the day, they got all 7 of us (me, three bridesmaids and two moms) done in just a few hours, and were incredibly punctual. They also took our varied requests in stride... two of my bridesmaids NEVER wear makeup, so they have them a beautiful natural look, and one wanted a HUGE hairdo, and they went with it and it looked incredible. I loved every one of their ideas and they really came through in pictures. What’s more, their prices were competitive! Thank you so much to Lauren and her mom and their team!

    5 Stars!!!

    Hi Lauren - On behalf of Jessica and I, we wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the amazing hair and makeup service and team you brought to us Sunday at the Fairmont. You were on time, kind, and professional throughout the process of getting 11 of us ready for the wedding day. In addition, I think you captured what each of us wanted our look to portray. The three of you were also a joy to work with and we would be happy to serve as references for you at any time.

    All the best to you, Stevie, and Nicole

They also specialize in large parties and actually ran ahead of schedule! All my girls looked gorgeous! What a great salon!
