I would highly recommend Crizen Hasegawa for any bride or bridal party (or anyone else who wants their hair and/or makeup done for an event).
Results were perfect and more beautiful than I could have dreamed - including my bridal hair (2 lo...oks) and makeup, hair and makeup for my 7 bridesmaids and one flower girl. Two assistants helped with various bridal party members as needed.
Crizen is creative, meticulous, and professional and worked very patiently with me as I worked to figure out what I wanted. She takes and implements feedback exceptionally. She clearly takes great pride in her work.
She also showed great versatility, responding to the needs and desires of many bridesmaids with divergent styles, hair textures, facial features, and complexions. Every single member of the bridal party looked both *stunning* and wonderfully individual, and that's owed in no small part to Crizen.
Logistically speaking, Crizen was very flexible and accomodating with our demands, which included a large group, very early morning start time, and additional afternoon touchups. She also showed great flexibility in scheduling trials, which was important for planning from a distance.
As a bonus, she is generally wonderful to have around, with a boundlessly positive attitude and great converstion - something I came to appreciate having during the many hours I spent in her chair (at trials and on the day)! She's simply great to work with and results could not have been better.
