Where do we even start?!?
She was amazing?
We had a last minute elopement and I took it upon myself to find my wife a hair and makeup artist to get her ready in Santa Barbara, Vesselina was the fastest to reply and instantly made me feel like she would take care of all of our needs for the day. She didn’t hesitate when told we needed her at the hotel, where she took it upon herself to reach out to the hotel to get a private room for her to do hair and makeup. She completely understood the assignment that my wife gave her, which might I add was not very direct as my wife was on the fence for various looks. Immediately upon finishing my wife reached out and said, “you did an amazing job picking her to do our services, I LOVE HER” I knew at that moment the rest of the day was going to go AMAZING. She looked great she felt great. What more can I say? Ladies give her your time and money, she will not disappoint!

I can’t say enough amazing things about our experience! She did my daughter’s hair and makeup for prom, and the results were absolutely stunning. From the moment she arrived, she made my daughter feel comfortable, confident, and truly special.
She took the time to listen to exactly what my daughter wanted and brought it to life perfectly, enhancing her natural beauty while still giving her that glamorous, prom-ready look. The makeup was flawless and lasted all night, and the hairstyle held beautifully without looking stiff or overdone.
Beyond her incredible talent, she was warm, professional, and genuinely cared about making the whole experience memorable. My daughter was left feeling like her best self, and as a parent, that meant everything.
We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for hair and makeup for a special occasion. Truly a 5-star experience!

I cannot rave enough bout Vesselina! I wish I lived in the area so she could do every event I attend. I had her so full face and hair for a wedding I was attending in the valley and it was superb! My make up lasted all night even when I was sweating to death. I got so many compliments. She was super responsive and even let me add a friend to get her hair done last minute. She even helped one of our guys with his hair. Truly this was 100/10 experience!

I cannot recommend Vesse highly enough! I hired her to do my hair and makeup for my son’s wedding, and she exceeded every expectation. I wanted something natural and elegant that would complement the occasion without feeling overdone, and she delivered exactly that. My hair and make up lasted all day too!
