    Exceptional services & amazing people!

    JD & her team are outstanding to work with, and their hair/makeup results are amazing. We had originally scheduled a 2020 Covid wedding that we needed to reschedule multiple times, and their team was incredibly accommodating, patient, organized, prompt, and professional. Both of our stylists (JD and Morgan) did an amazing job on hair and makeup, and after my trial, they took my requests into account and made it exactly what I had hoped for. They are also so fun & the hype women we needed on my special day! One of the best decisions I made on vendors for my wedding day. They even do a complimentary blowout for brides that I used over 2 years later, and the team was as kind and welcoming as ever.

    Highly recommend for your wedding glam needs!

    Shawna and Taylor were an absolute dream team for the hair and makeup glam on my wedding day! From my very first meeting with Shawna during the hair and makeup trial, she was not only a true professional but also a delight to get to know. Not only did Shawna work wonders on my bridal look, but having both her and Taylor present on the big day elevated the atmosphere, and they effortlessly fit right in. Shawna was incredible in translating my vision into reality. She not only gave me the exact look I wanted but exceeded my expectations. The modifications we made during the trial, guided by her expertise, resulted in a final look that left me feeling better than I could have imagined.
    The team at Status Salon truly made my wedding beauty experience exceptional. It's a one-stop shop for all your beauty needs. They walked me through the process of using clip-in hair extensions for the first time and offered valuable tips for hair and skin prep for the big day. Having them on my team for the wedding day added an extra layer of ease and confidence for the day. Worth every penny.

    Loved this team!

    Status Salon did services for myself, husband, both of our mothers & my maid of honor. Shawna was my artist for both hair & makeup - she is so sweet & we clicked at my trial! Day of the event it was so fun chatting with her & the rest of the bridal party. I'm so sorry I can't remember the name of the other artist, but she was so sweet as well. Everyone loved their looks & it lasted all night :)

    Bridesmaids Glam!

    These ladies were great! Raelynn made my makeup dreams come true! This was a new experience for me and she made me feel so comfortable in her chair. And Lindsey was the sweetest, she took grand ideas and made it into a masterpiece. The compliments alone were worth it. 10/10 would definitely hire for my own wedding.

    Status Salon's reply:

    LOVE hearing this Christiana!!! Thank you so much for sending this shout out to our artists Lindsey & Raelynn!

    Beauty and comfort!

    I was a bridesmaid in my friends wedding recently. Raelynn, Sydney, Lindsey and JD made me feel so comfortable when getting my hair any make up done, and asked what I personally prefer as a bridesmaid. They took what I said and made me look amazing! I will definitely use them for my own wedding!

    Amazing, professional, uplifting staff

    The girls who did our make up were so sweet, friendly, and held conversation with all of us while we sat in their chairs. Personally I felt very included in the process of what would look good hair and make up wise. The girls input their advice professionally.

    AMAZING experience!!

    I highly recommend Status Salon! Shawna and Taylor took care of mine and my bridesmaids glam and they did an incredible job. Everyone looked gorgeous and was extremely happy. And the glam lasted all night!

    Status Salon's reply:

    Love hearing your glam lasted all NIGHT! We are looking forward to seeing the pictures from the ceremony & reception. Shawna & Taylor send their love & Congrats!

    So so amazing!!!!

    I am so happy we chose Status Salon for our wedding events - Shawna and Taylor both did a phenomenal job with hair and makeup for me, my mom and my sister. We booked them for four different events, and we loved each one! We got so many compliments from our guests... I would definitely recommend booking Status for your big day!

    Status Salon's reply:

    THANK YOU for sharing your beauty experience with all our Wedding Wire brides! Shawna & Taylor had a blast hanging with you all for all these wedding events! We hope to see you again soon!

    A beautiful result!

    So thankful to Shawna, Sarah, and all those at Status Salon who made my wedding day so special. Thanks to Shawna, my bridal makeup and hair stayed beautiful all day and late into the night! Our wedding party all looked great- both hair and makeup done by Shawna and Sarah. They arrived spot on time and were ready to get going on wedding day.

    Best decision ever

    JD and Elise were beyond amazing! They made getting ready so fun and took my stress away. Elise is a miracle worker with makeup and made me and my bridal party look STUNNING. JD was able to take my inspirational hair and make it 10x better! I was so happy with them!

    Status Salon's reply:

    Hey Bailee! This was so kind of you to write this review! We will never forget the laughs we all had on your wedding day!

    The best stylist

    Shawna has been been doing my hair for special events for 3 years now and I wouldn’t go see anyone else! First and foremost, she does a fantastic job. She is also professional and fun. Not only do I always love what she does with my hair, I trust her advice to get the most of each hairstyle.

    Beyond Thankful!

    Words cannot express how appreciative I am for everything JD, Elise and Morgan did to make my wedding day glam a possibility! Like many brides affected by the many trials and tribulations covid had on their wedding I was faced with canceling, rescheduling and relocating my wedding several times. The Status Beauty Salon team went above and beyond to ensure my wedding day glam was still a possibility and I am internally grateful
    Working with Morgan was an absolute dream come true! She is an incredibly talented artist who was so accommodating and kind, making a perfect day even more memorable!

    Perfection!

    We were lucky enough to work directly with JD and it was a wonderful experience. JD was responsive and professional throughout our time working together. I booked Status Salon in mid 2019 and with the complications that came with COVID, they worked with me very easily to adjust our date and services needed. In the end, I had three hair and make up services and EVERY SINGLE one of us looked so beautiful. JD arrived early, was fun to hang out with on the day of and did the services exactly as requested. She was kind and helpful in providing recommendations for styles from an expert without being pushy or trying to change our minds. I could not recommend Status Salon more for your event needs!

    Status Salon's reply:

    Hey Mariah!
    We are so glad that throughout all the obstacles thrown at us all these past 18months we were still able to glam up you & your ladies! Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience for all our clients to read!

    xoxo JD

    Status Salon is Top Notch

    Status Salon was a sincere pleasure to work with. Through covid cancellations, wild fires, etc, JD was flexible, gracious, professional.

    The Status team was a huge part of our wedding events including bridal shower glam, spray tans, eyelash curling, extensions, makeup and hair. Their team does it all!

    They listened carefully to the vision of each person in the bridal party. Everyone was very happy with their look. We trust them and their skills and highly recommend their services for any of your special events.

    Thank you Status!

    Status Salon's reply:

    This wedding brought so much happiness to our entire salon & agency! Thank you for choosing us to be a part of the glam & dapper to such a memorable day in your lives! WE CANNOT wait to see more images and see you all in the salon soon to hear about the wedding! xoxo JD & Status Family

    Perfection with Love

    I am a wedding Florist and I have known JD and her phenomenal team for many years. When it was time for my wedding 3/16/20 in Santa Barbara I knew I had to reach out. I had AshMo as my hairstylist. She is fun, excited for you and has a huge amount of positive energy making you feel like the party is ready to start. She reviewed all of my images, placed the extensions in from Extensions by JD to give me all the volume and length needed for the style of updo I was hoping for. The morning of the wedding, she was so calm, focused and communicated the whole process of what she was doing. Her timing was impeccable so I never worried if I was on time. She saw things and reached out to correct them like my son's haircut and my mother's hair and wanted everything and everyone to look perfect for my day. Ashley aka AshMo was the saving grace I needed to keep me calm. I could not have asked for anything else more and truly grateful she was there for me and my family. Trust your vendors! I truly trusted Status Salon to put something so important and fragile in their hands. JD and all of her staff all amazing, hair, makeup, extensions you name they excel's at it and her staff is the most caring out there. Trust your Vendors. I trust Status Salon

    The Best There Is!

    I’ve know JD for almost 20 years and she’s hands down one of my favorite people. I know this may all seem bias but she truly is a master of beauty. Her and her amazing team (Flo and Sierra) glammed us ladies up and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Hire her!! She really is the best there is.

    Feel like a million bucks + endless fun

    Where do I even start?! JD was a DREAM to work with. I am sensitive to smells. First off, she only uses hypoallergenic makeup and when she put makeup on me, she would have me smell it first -- this was huge and allowed me to not have any reactions! I sent JD over pictures of my dream hair + makeup and she did them PERFECTLY. All of our us ladies understand how hard it is to color match foundations -- not to look orange or a weird color. JD did this perfectly. I seriously looked like myself but upgraded and felt like a million bucks. JD is seriously THE SWEETEST and FUNNIEST person too. What some people don't realize is that getting ready is a significant part of the wedding day and so the personality of your makeup + hair artist is extremely important. No worries here! JD is literally the funniest, nicest lady ever! She makes you feel like you are instant best friends, all while giving you the perfect hair + makeup. She kept checking in with me throughout the process to make sure every detail lived up to my expectations -- and wow did it! There were many details in the dream makeup picture I sent over that I didn't even know -- and she allowed me to say yes or no to each step. Also! I was getting ready during lunch and she somehow did my makeup + hair while I ate lunch. She was so encouraging to remind me to eat (a very important thing on your day!). Last but not least -- my mom wanted makeup with JD on the day of but she asked for it the day before my wedding. JD was able to squeeze my mom in after my maid of honor and I, and my mom LOVED her. I am forever grateful to JD. Also! In scheduling, I got to work with the incredible Elise and she is a serious gem as well. They are incredibly responsive in email and text. BOOK STATUS SALON NOW! You literally will not regret it -- you have no idea how talented these ladies are.

    So incredibly talented

    I'm so happy to have found Status Salon- Elise and Flo did an incredible job and made us all look and feel amazing! I loved meeting them for my hair and make up trial, and they exceeded anything I could have imagined on the day of my wedding. All of my bridesmaids raved about how much they loved their hair and makeup, as well as how fun Elise and Flo were to hang out with while we were all getting ready. They made us feel super comfortable, and did an amazing job of making us look natural yet glammed up. These guys are the best- you are in great hands with them!

    Status Salon's reply:

    Meaghan--- Flo & Elise had the best morning glamming you and your ladies up and are so thrilled to hear you all were so pleased! We are just loving all the photos being posted and cannot wait to share them with all our future brides! We hope to see you in the neat future! xoxo JD & Status Family

    Dream team!

    JD is the most amazing person in the world to work with. She absolutely nailed it the first try at my hair and makeup trial. Then, come our wedding day she made me look and feel even more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She really is a dream to work with and I'd recommend her and her team to anyone!

    In addition to JD we had her amazing partners, Elise and Morgan, there to assist. These ladies killed it! They were able to bring each and every one of my bridesmaids vision to life and not a single person left feeling like it wasn't quite what they wanted. I thought everyone (including our mom's) looked absolutely stunning!

    I wish we could do the day all over again because kicking off your wedding morning with the Status ladies and your besties is indescribable! SO MUCH FUN!

    Xx!

    Fun team, talented artists, and well-priced services

    PLEASE hire the artists at Status Salon for your professional hair and makeup services! I cannot recommend JD and her fabulous team more.

    JD, Ashley, and Flo provided hair and makeup services to me, my mother, and my bridesmaids on my wedding day in August 2019 -- I purchased all services for my ladies as my gift to them. They traveled to our hotel in Walnut Creek and setup in my suite very creatively, despite the huge lack of natural lighting; we were able to use diffuse lights within the room and check everything in the one window we did have, before the party left for the venue. All three artists did stellar jobs ensuring we all looked and felt beautiful. Plus, they have the BEST taste in pre-wedding music :)

    I want to give a special shout-out to JD, the owner of the salon -- she is extremely talented, kind, and professional with her clients. During my trial run, I felt so comfortable and that I could be transparent about what I loved/hated about my look -- it was truly collaborative with JD. On the day of the wedding, she not only made me look like an enhanced (not Kardashian-ized) version of myself for my wedding, but she was also attentive to me person-to-person -- I'm sure she has seen all kinds of pre-wedding emotions, and I cannot say enough how much I appreciated her empathy with my mixture of excitement and nervousness.

    In short, Status Salon is fabulous and I highly recommend this team for any hair or makeup services needed!

    Simply the best hair & makeup

    JD, Elise, and the Status team are incredible women with a keen eye for excellent details. For my wedding, each bridesmaid got their hair and makeup done, and separately, each pulled me aside and said, "WOW. I have always hated getting my makeup done, but these ladies are INCREDIBLE." The team at Status truly listens and lets you take the lead, resulting in hair and makeup that you can feel comfortable in, all day. They took extra care with my Matron of Honor, ensuring that her makeup was hypoallergenic and fit to her needs. JD even stayed after our ceremony to help me touch up (tears aplenty!) If you are looking for a professional, charismatic, and excellent hair and makeup team, look no further. THESE LADIES ARE AMAZING.

    Status Salon's reply:

    Emily!! Your sweet words absolutely made our day and we were beyond honored to be a part of your wedding day!!! We had a lovely time with you and your ladies and all the happy tears!!

    Thank you for sharing your experience with our future brides and we cannot wait to see you again in the near future!

    xoxo

    Best in the Bay

    JD and Raelynn did my hair and makeup respectively and I can honestly say I have never looked better.

    From the beginning, JD was very open and clear about about the details regarding consultation, booking etc. Our event was during the July 4 weekend when things get busy and booked up in advance. But JD accommodated my last minute demand of adding two additional hair services.

    On the day of, they came early to set up and were very good with their time management. While I was quite nervous about the event in general, JD and Raelynn helped me relax. I don't wear makeup on a daily basis and did not want a very heavy set makeup for the event as well. Raelynn respected that and did a very natural looking makeup that enhanced my best features. JD did my hair and made sure the bobby pins weren't hurting my head. I did a good thing of trusting their judgement when it came to doing my hair and makeup

    For my bridal party, the girls who were doing their own makeup, Raelynn even helped them out with the lashes and fixing eye makeup etc.

    At the end of the night, I not only got a lot of compliments but my hair and make up were intact even after plenty of tears and a night of crazy dancing.

    I would like to thank them both for making my day so special :)

    Seamless service

    I planned a wedding in which JD and Status Salon did hair and make up and let me tell you everything was perfect. From flexibility, accommodations, consulting, coordinating details with me, and of course the beautiful art in the form of hair and make up on the day of. Our bride was so happy and at ease! Having JD around is a great way to start their wedding day. Five starts all around.

    Absolutely outstanding

    Elise from the status salon absolutely rocked my hair and make up for my engagement photo shoot!!! I showed her photo inspiration for hair and make up and she was able to adapt it just for me. We are in the process of booking the status salon agency for our wedding!

    They were also super easy to book with and very accommodating.
