    Amazing Hair and Makeup!

    As a person who does not wear much makeup, E2 beauty was such a pleasant experience. They have different packages, and I got both my hair and makeup was done including a trial. I did not have much of an idea of what I wanted, but Sarah and Vanessa assisted in finding the best look for me. Even though I’m a bit shy, they are both wonderful to talk to and the entire process was very relaxing. I’m so happy I choose them to work their magic on my special day!
    They also provide groom hair and makeup, and my husband was so surprised at how clean his skin looked! Honestly, worth it for the photos.

    I remember feeling overwhelmed with the thought of researching hair and makeup vendors. I don’t usually wear a lot of makeup and I have A LOT of thick hair so I knew I needed people who could tame my hair and help me achieve a more natural look. One of my bridesmaids referred me to E2 Beauty, and after looking through their photos (check out their Pinterest page!), I knew my search was done. I scheduled a trial for my engagement shoot and met Rofyah (hair) and Ashley (makeup). Rofyah is friendly and easy to talk with. I showed her some photos and talked about how I wanted my hair to look, and what she did was more beautiful than what was in my head! Our conversation flowed naturally and she kept me laughing and relaxed. Ashley is also easy going and knowledgeable about makeup. She listened to my concerns and made sure that the makeup looked natural to my eyes. I was very pleased with how it turned out and by the end, it felt like I had been catching up with old friends. On the day of the wedding, Rofyah and Ashley arrived promptly and with smiles. They made myself, four bridesmaids, and flower girl look gorgeous! My bridesmaids loved working with them too. My hair and makeup stayed intact the entire day (14 hours) and I absolutely loved how it turned out. I am so grateful that Rofyah and Ashley were a part of my wedding day. They are true professionals and worked with me to make sure I looked and felt beautiful.

    I LOVE the E2Beauty team! My hair and makeup were PERFECT! My bridesmaids looked amazing! My mom and mother-in-law looked stunning! I’m not a picky person so I just gave them a general idea of what I wanted and they made it into something so much better than I could have imagined. The hair and makeup stayed put after three outfit changes and lots of dancing. Also, they’re easy to work with when it comes to setting up a trial and making modifications to the contract .
    I highly recommend E2Beauty!

    Genie was an absolute pleasure to work with. I asked her several times to make modifications to the contract and the schedule, and she addressed all my concerns, making sure the bride is happy =) During the trial, she listened to all my requests and even gave suggestions if she thinks something else suits me better. I truly felt like a princess walking out of her salon that day. Random people even stopped me on the street just to say how pretty my hair and makeup were.

    I also love how Genie’s makeup was flawless and lasted all day! On the day of the wedding, I didn’t even need to use the touch-up kit she provided, even after dancing and sweating for hours. Genie and her team (Sarah, Rika, and Anna) did such an amazing job for me and my bridal party. Everyone loved their hair and makeup.

    I highly recommend E2Beauty!

    Elaine did a phenomenal job with my hair and makeup for the wedding! It was seriously perfect, and exactly what I wanted. She is organized and professional and complete sweetheart. She and Daisy also did the hair and makeup for all my bridesmaids. They all seemed pleased with the results, and I thought they looked stunning. This process can take a long time and Elaine and Daisy were on top of it and kept us all on schedule without being rushed. I highly recommend them!

    Genie was so awesome to work with! She did my hair and make-up for my trial/engagement shoot as well as for the day of my wedding event. Both times, she did an incredible job, and was so fun and chill throughout the whole process. I even got a haircut a week before the wedding, and it turned out wonderfully. My mother and mother-in-law looked yearrrrssss younger, much to their delight. Genie also gave me a touch-up kit, which turned out to be a complete life-saver after I stuffed my face with hors d'oeuvres like a starved maniac. I honestly wish I could give her a thousand more stars because she remained totally cool and unaffected by the sheer madness of my family, which, believe me, is no easy feat. Huge thanks to Genie and her whole team!

    Genie was absolutely wonderful to work with and totally exceeded my expectations for my wedding day. She was so easy to work with and very professional. She was easily available through email and phone and communicated with me through the entire wedding process. She made everything stress free, especially on my wedding day! Once I met Genie I knew I had to have E2beauty to do my hair for myself and my wedding party! Genie was able to do exactly what I had envisioned for my wedding day hair, including my hair piece and extensions. Her hair specialists were also so amazing and made my wedding party look beautiful. They were able to do exactly what each bridesmaid wanted. I absolutely loved everything about Genie and E2beauty. I would HIGHLY recommend them to all of my friends and family.

    Genie was such a pleasure to work with! She is so sweet and talented with both hair and makeup. I originally selected her as my hair and makeup artist because she has experience working with asian brides and is talented at doing both hair and makeup. During the trial, I showed her a few pictures, and she executed both my hair and makeup better than I could have imagined! I didn't have a single complaint. On the day of my wedding, my makeup and hair ended up looking just as good at the end of the night as it did when she first applied it (and I have SUPER oily skin, so I still have no clue how she managed that). Additionally, Genie ended up throwing in a bunch of perks without asking for anything in return. My mom decided to get fake eyelashes, and Genie offered to do it even though it wasn't in the contract and I didn't pay for the service. I was supposed to receive an emergency kit, but since Genie forgot it, she offered to just come to the venue after the ceremony and touch up my makeup for free! To top it off, after Genie had already touched up my makeup and had every right to leave, she stayed after because my bridesmaids were having trouble bustling my train. She just jumped right in and stayed way later to help bustle my train. If you want a sweet, talented, genuine makeup artist/hair stylist, you need to book e2beauty!

    On a separate website (yelp), I provided a detailed review as a "bride-to-be" client of e2beauty. I raved about my "beauty dream team" through e2beauty on my wedding day (hair, make-up, and assistance preparing for a dual-culture wedding).

    I am pleased to continue with further review, nearly a year and a half after being happily wed, to evidence the quality by which these ladies have supported my hair and beauty needs, where I returned as a client. I felt confident and beautiful thanks to my hair and makeup. The e2beauty team members are wizards in their talents. They recreated the same warm fuzzy feeling I had when I was getting married for this special occasion. Every girl needs to experience the fairy dust of this beauty team.. be it wedding, fancy event, or.. hell.. just because they want to feel pretty. This is the dream team and I promise that they WILL see me again! Highly recommend beyond 5 stars. THANK YOU e2beauty!

    Genie and her team nailed it on my wedding day – timely without a shade of feeling of rushed and 3 bridesmaids, 1 mother of the bride, and 1 bride looking and feeling absolutely fabulous. Genie and her team were our warm, supportive girlfriends with magic wands in their hands. Their hair and make-up work stood the test of a morning wedding, lunch reception, and a dinner reception. The pictures are proof.

    I really enjoyed working with Genie because I didn’t have a strong opinion about hairstyles and make-up when we first started. So when we met in April for the engagement photo session, she took the time to ask great questions to hone in on what I liked and she was very flexible as my taste evolved with more research. We spent a fair amount of time on email exchanging pictures and recommendations. All of these interactions, I think, helped all of us nail it on the wedding day.

    Great value for the high quality of service and professionalism!

    Genie and Elaine are AMAZING to work with!!! Throughout the planning process, I mostly communicated with Genie and she was absolutely wonderful - very sweet, supportive, and flexible. She was always quick to address any concerns I had, regarding the day-of schedule, and accommodated several last minute changes that had to be made. Genie did both my hair and make-up for my engagement session, which I absolutely loved and received many compliments on, so I was confident that I would love e2beauty's services on the actual day of my wedding!

    Sure enough, their services were beyond amazing. The morning of the wedding, they showed up at my hotel promptly at 6:45am, just as they stated they would. They set up very quickly and promptly went to work. They carefully listened to each of my bridesmaids' preferences and they really tried to understand each person's individual style. The end result was just stunning - all of my bridesmaids looked absolutely amazing and kept complimenting Genie and Elaine on their amazing work! In fact, my sister even commented that she wish she had known about e2beauty back when she got married because she liked them better than her own stylist! They also did an amazing job with both my mom and my husband, as they made them both look exceptional!

    As for myself, I could not believe the work they did with me - up until the day of the wedding, I started to get some weird blemishes (probably from stress) and Elaine managed to cover them up and made me look flawless! Haha, I seriously didn't even know I could look that beautiful! :) Genie did my hair up in a gorgeous side up-do that I received many compliments on - it was intricate, elegant and super fancy...just the look I was going for! I also ordered a custom hairpiece through Genie's other company, Petit Plum, and let me just say - the comb is SO beautiful that I am keeping it as an heirloom to pass down to my future daughter! Thanks, e2beauty!!!! :)

    Genie and her team at E2Beauty really did an AMAZING job for both me and all my bridesmaids!! Genie is super sweet, easy to work with, and responsive to emails. I always dealt with some acne problems to it was important for me to find someone who could really do wonders for me on my wedding day and still have me look natural and like myself! Genie and her team went above and beyond to ensure that we all loved the way we looked on the wedding day and she even helped me put together my hairpieces and veils that I had gotten overseas! The pictures from the wedding day turned out SO GOOD thanks to her wonderful hair and make up job that lasted the entire day!! Thank you so very much for making us all look so beautiful on my special day!!

    E2beauty team definitely deserves 5 stars all around. The process from beginning to end was smooth. Genie made a timeline for me and her artists and they stuck to it. The team arrived on time and quickly set up to start on all the women.

    I'm a bit particular about makeup and hair, but e2beauty team definitely exceeded my expectations. The makeup and hair stayed all day. They were able to transform us in a way we still felt like we looked like us. Sometimes some artists play around too much with features with the makeup or hair and we don't look like ourselves, but that's one thing I didn't have to worry about with the quality of work from the e2beauty team.

    I am so happy I booked the e2beauty team for my wedding, Genie, Mindy, and Rika, really made us look so beautiful. Thank you so much girls! I love how we all looked in our pictures too and that definitely says something about your work ladies! You all rock!!!

    Genie and Elaine from e2beauty were such a pleasure to work with! Genie did my hair and all my bridesmaids' hair and Elaine did all the BM make up. The girls loved both their hair and make up and everything was still as it was by the end of the night! They're both super professional and easy to work with. Genie is an artist with hair! The girls gave her an idea of what they wanted through photos and Genie was able to create it all with a few twists of bobby pins and tons of hairspray! My sister was a BM and she's picky with make up, but Elaine did it exactly as she imagined!

    I absolutely LOVED my hair and I got so many compliments on it. The way it turned out on the day of the wedding surprised me because it was even BETTER than the trial! The hair stayed put ALL day and made me feel beautiful. :) We're already referring both of them to other brides!

    Genie (Eugenia Chung) did an amazing job on my hair and makeup - she was able to take in everything I wanted and turn it into reality! My mom and mother-in-law also loved loved loved how their hair and makeup turned out as well!! I always notice how Korean mothers' makeup and hair turn out a little off (too glamorous? dark? and often make them look older!) Genie brought out their beauty without making them look overdone.

    Genie was so easy to work with, and her prices were very reasonable compared to other stylists (which is unusual, because I'm pretty sure I had the best wedding makeup/hair person ever!) She also had an assistant with her to do my bridesmaids' hair (which all turned out beautiful, by the way)

    I am more than happy to share photos - just contact Genie and ask her for my info (my wedding day was Dec. 29, 2012)

    Genie is extremely talented and creative. My wedding was in January this past month and Genie really pulled through. I contacted her semi-last minute and she was able to return my emails and coordinate with me quickly and efficiently. She even created a schedule for the morning of the big day so I could sleep in a bit longer :P. My hair was amazing and all my guests commented on how great I looked. I was quite skeptical when Genie told me my hair would last all night. Usually, I'm lucky if it lasts through half the day, but whatever magic she used made my hair pretty all night long. Her work with my bridesmaids were amazing as well. She didn't need much guidance on what I wanted, it was like she just knew when I described the tone and theme of my wedding. One of my bridesmaids had just cut her hair and so she had considerably shorter hair than the others but this did not deter Genie at all. She was able to make them beautiful each in their own way but also at the same time somewhat similar. I was very impressed. My mom was extremely happy with her hair as well. She was surprised and felt extremely pampered since it had been a while since she's had such a beautiful updo. I would recommend Genie over and over again to all my friends and family. I just hope there is another occasion I can use as an excuse to get her to do my hair again :).

    Elaine did my makeup for my wedding in October 2011! I am also a hair and makeup artist, so I only trust certain people to do my makeup and Elaine was my pick for my special day! She listened to all my requests and concerns and made me look and feel beautiful! She incorporated some pretty purples into my eye look as well! Loved my makeup and Love Elaine!!

    I had the pleasure of working with Genie last year for my wedding. I contacted her early in the planning process and was initially surprised by her extremely reasonable prices. My motivation for wedding planning quickly wore off, however, but luckily for me, Genie followed up with me about a month later. As a NorCal bride planning a SoCal wedding, I didn't have the luxury of doing a trial with Genie before signing the contract, but what the heck, I liked what I saw, she was at a convenient location, and she seemed friendly - so far so good.

    A few months later, Genie did the hair and makeup for my engagement session, with the makeup serving as a trial for the wedding day (I did a separate hair trial). I arrived at her home studio and was greeted by one of the sweetest people I've ever met. Since my engagement session was going to be running all day, I asked if she could do an updo that I could easily take down in the evening for 2 different looks. Genie expertly obliged. The makeup was perfect too - I wanted something fresh faced and natural. After we were done, she showed me some of her Petit Plume work, which me made realize that I needed a Genie-crafted hairpiece for my wedding day as well. I walked out that morning, feeling pretty, and very confident and excited about hiring Genie for my wedding day.

    Before the wedding, the hairpiece Genie made for me arrived and it was beautiful - the perfect complement for my wedding day look. I had actually ordered a couple hairpieces off of Etsy that I considered, but there was a noticeable difference in quality and uniqueness of style with Genie's hairpiece.

    Genie and her assistant, Clara, arrived promptly on the morning of the wedding and got straight to work. They did hair and makeup for myself, 3 BMs, my mom, and MIL. My BMs all chose different updos and Genie did a fantastic job on all of them, with minimal direction from the girls themselves (I believe one of my BMs told her she wanted "Taylor Swift hair" :P). Clara did a great job on their makeup as well. My MIL decided to walk around in the sun all day before with no sunscreen and came into the hotel room looking like a lobster, but they were skillfully able to cover the redness up. Genie and Clara were always attentive and accommodating to create the looks that each of us wanted. Prior to the wedding, Genie had sent me the schedule for the day after I had told her what time we wanted to be ready by. Honestly, I was enjoying myself so much that morning, I have no idea if we followed that schedule exactly, but I do know that we definitely finished on time.

    Overall, I was thrilled with Genie's work, and she was one of my favorite wedding vendors! Not only is she incredibly talented, but she's such a nice person. She clearly loves what she does. If she lived closer, I'd be tempted to have Genie do my hair and makeup all the time! I was incredibly happy with my wedding day and couldn't have asked for anything more.

    I can go on and on about Elaine and how amazing she was at doing my make up. We did a trial/engagement make up session and she made the make up look flawless! My mom even called it "perfect", and she's a definite perfectionist. I loved working with them and would recommend Elaine for a make up professional.
