Bright Facialists was great. She was on time, professional, very knowledgeable, and the wok she produced was beautiful. I asked for soft glam and that's what I got. I received so many compliments, and I really felt pretty.

Monica was very responsive and did a great job with my hair and makeup for an engagement photoshoot in the mountains. She asked for inspiration pictures ahead of time and had products set out based on what I had shared, and checked in with me to see if I wanted to adjust anything about the overall look. I attached a picture from immediately after getting hair and makeup done and I loved how it looked here! Very glam and old Hollywood. The makeup still looked great at the end of the evening more than 6 hours later after a moderate hike. Next time, I'd probably ask for a hairstyle with less teasing because I'm not sure if the wind blowing will cause my hair to look messy - waiting for the pictures to see how it turned out!
