Very happy with the final product. Really appreciated how prepared Chelsea was and the timeline she organized for us. She was very flexible to add in additional services last minute so we could have some family members get all glammed up. Ness and Karina were great both in my preview and did an excellent job day of. Karina even edited together an instagram reel which meant the world to me as we didn't have a videographer. Ness also literally carried the back of my dress as I walked down the hill so it didn't get dirty. Just above and beyond. So pleased to have had these ladies around on such a special day!

From our initial preview to executing on the day of, Chelsea truly goes ABOVE and beyond during the entire planning process in order to bring your HMU vision to life. She is very thorough and takes pride in her work and it is very apparent because she is a total rockstar and a master at her craft. My hair and makeup was everything I wanted and more and all of the bridesmaids were stunning!! Not only should you book FUSE for your wedding because of their incredible services offered, but truly one of the sweetest people I had the opportunity to work with and I am so thankful to have crossed paths with Chelsea. I felt like a princess and her attention to detail continued throughout the entire evening, where my look lasted the entire night after dancing the night away!
I booked FUSE from a recommendation from my venue in La Jolla California. They were ABOSLUTELY the cherry on top of the cake! Throughout the entire wedding planning process, they would check in and see how everything was going. Always responded to every question I had and on top of it all, they did an excellent job! They did the hair and make up for all the girls and even made time for one of my girls that didn't schedule her hair appt. The team was top notch! Chelsea, thank you for everything!
Any questions?
Words cannot even describe how perfect everything came out. Ness did such a great job on my mother and I’s hair and makeup! We were so blessed to have Ness as our stylist! She really went above and beyond to make my special day come true! We were so glad to have added the touch up package so that my stylist could touch me up during photos and before the rehearsals started. If you are looking for a stylist for events I highly recommend Fuse Hair and Beauty! Great team and the response time to emails/messages are on point.
Chelsea and her team were so easy to work with. They were so excited about my vision and executed it perfectly. We had a total around 11 gals of all ages and stages of life and they all looked amazing! I booked my engagement make up and hair as well and I still love everything about my hair and make up. So if you are like me and were struggling to find a vendor who caters to the Alternative bride i.e. dark and mysterious who tends to love that gothic vibe, look no further!!! Chelsea and her team has got your back!!!!
Chelsea and her team were excellent to work with. Every girl looked absolutely beautiful.
Gave such detailed prep instructions and Ness was beautifully creative.
Chelsea and her team went above and beyond for my special day, and we're able to adjust the schedule to fit in two last minute hair styles. The team did an A-class job also fitting the makeup and hair to everyone's personalities as well. It wasn't just bridal hair, but styled to fit the person. One of my bridesmaids had the coolest viking braids hairstyle with edgy makeup that fit her perfectly, while others had glam and classy styles that fit them better. Overall, an amazing experience! 10/10
Thank you for ensuring both brides and our squads looked amazing!!! Your support and prioritization of the brides wants and needs made everything amazing!

Thank you Elizabeth!! You ladies looked so beautiful with each of you having your own team of stylists from FUSE to service you at the locations of your choice; since you both were serviced in different locations! Thank you so much for choo...
sing FUSE Hair & Beauty as your Bridal Beauty Professionals!
Absolutely amazing team!! I had a large bridal party that included my mother in law and my aunt, and these girls made us look AMAZING!! Chelsea the owner was wonderful to work with and supe commutative. Thank you so much Ness, Azucena, Britney, Jesi and Gabby for busting your butts and getting us all done!! Wonderful human people and so much talent! Did not feel rushed at all! Timing was so well planned and it helped all of our days go smoother.
Ness stuck with me to make sure my hair and makeup was flawless for every single picture before and after the ceremony!! And she is such a bad ass at hair!
Azucena was super sweet and gave me the exact natural look I was looking for! Couldn't have asked for a better make up artist!
Gabby and Jesi did such an amazing job with everyone's makeup and absolutely went above and beyond for requests.
Britney was the cutest, she allowed my very pregnant and tired to sit on the bed while she got her hair done. And did an absolutely amazing job!!
Thank you girls for making my day super special

ents. It was an honor to share such an incredible day with the people who matter MOST in your life on YOUR wedding day! Thank you.
Fuse helped myself and my bridal party + mom get ready for my big day on 9.18.22! They were super friendly, professional, and did a wonderful job! We were able to get all 9 of us ready (hair and makeup!) between the hours of 9am-12:30pm. Fuse was great with making sure my vision was created and Ness went above and beyond on my look for both my trial and on the big day. I would definitely recommend using Fuse for a wedding or big event, you won’t regret it!
Chelsea and Britney made a fantastic team for my wedding day -- I would highly recommend reaching out the the FUSE team for any and all wedding/occasion hair and makeup! They did just what my wedding party and I wanted, and we all looked fabulous. The makeup stayed all night, even through the sweat and tears (it was hot that day and all of us cried at least once), and I had the best time getting my hair and makeup done with them.
I have nothing but great things to say about Fuse Hair & Beauty! They did an amazing job on my wedding day and my bridal party looked absolutely phenomenal.
Hair and makeup turned out great with Nessa for my day. And great pricing on bridesmaid hair and makeup, but very expensive for bridal hair and makeup.
The makeup for the whole wedding party looked fantastic! Everything was comfortable and lasted! no touch ups needed, even on the great lashes they provide. We all felt beautiful and none of the products they use irritated anyone!

Tawny and Ness were an absolute dream to work with. They took my bridal vision and made it reality. My mom and bridesmaids looked flawless and glam to the max. I cannot recommend them enough for your wedding day dream team. Thank you ladies for everything!

Thank you so much Alexa, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us and we're so grateful to have been part of your wedding day! You were absolutely stunning! Xoxo
Chelsea and her team were reassuring and helpful, especially with COVID. Chelsea always reached out to check in on any updates we'd had with the venue. Finally, we reached our wedding day and her and her team went above and beyond to make sure we all looked beautiful by rescheduling earlier due to changing ceremony time. We all felt comfortable and ended up picture perfect! Thank you!

Thank you so much for your review Brittney! We really appreciate you taking the time to post such a wonderful review and sharing your feedback. We are so grateful to have been part of your wedding day! If you ever need anything, please don't he...
sitate to reach out to your girls! We love you! xoxo!
Well..at first Chelsea was great! Super friendly and (seemingly) flexible. Although I will say, you always have to be first to text her to confirm appointments (you would think the business would reach out to the customer to confirm appointments that were made 3+ months ago). This is a bit unsettling for a bride.
Then as soon as COVID started happening, my texts were not being answered, my trial (1 on 1..no covid rules being broken) was cancelled 3 times for no good reason, and the contract was not honored when I was forced to cancel.
Brides please pay attention to pages 4-5 of the contract if you're going through something similar! This is a natural disaster situation, and every vendor including our venue (shoutout to wedge wood Indian Hills!!)has given AT LEAST partial refunds. Chelsea is NOT doing this even though it's written in the contract.
Chelsea stated she could not give me a prorated portion of the Total Cost (as written in the contract), because she does not have the money to do that. She yelled several times "What do you want me to do? What am I supposed to do?!! I don't even have $5 to give you!!"
That was the only reasoning I was given. No credit was offered, no partial refund. Nothing.
Extremely unprofessional. I understand with the pandemic everyone is struggling. Heck I'm struggling, losing thousands AND thousands of dollars on this wedding.
It is NOT the clients responsibility to make sure the vendor has enough money to honor their contractual obligations!
Nor should the client be made to feel guilty for simply asking for what the contract spells out. How very unprofessional! I have never in my life had a vendor tell me "well what do you want me to do?!" as if it is my fault for simply asking for what's due to me.
We are NOT friends. She was hired to provide a service for me..when services can't be provided we go off of the agreed upon contract. We do not just settle for "oh I don't have the money, oh well sweetie. Goodbye!" Because, again, this is not a friend to friend situation, this is a business deal.
No successful company does that.
First of all they do not divulge financials, as Chelsea did. I was stunned by this.
Secondly, if they don't have the money, PROFESSIONAL businesses either get government help, they offer credit, or they do both. To not only yell at me, but to also not offer ANY incentive, is not a business I would consider.
I believe that this company should really work on being more professional and honor their contracts. Or they change their contract to something they will feel comfortable honoring, if they do not want to honor their current contract.
Brides beware! This company turned what was already a difficult situation into a nightmare.
If you're a military family, you know how orders/deployments/PCS changes all the time. For those milso's looking for hair/makeup, I would NOT recommend this company.
They will not honor your contract if/when things must change (as they always do in the military). They are NOT a flexible company. They will stop responding to texts/calls.
This is the only wedding vendor that I have encountered since the COVID pandemic that has not been military friendly so far! Awful experience
My wedding was so wonderfully perfect. Chelsea was amazing and so easy to work with. She was willing and able to make changes on the spot, and worked with all of my lovely ladies! Melissa was there with her and did some lovely work too.
OH!! And LGBT+ friendly!!! (My wife and I are gay lol). So thanks Chelsea!!!
Chelsea is literally the best! She's so easy to work with (and also the sweetest human ever), I literally gave her a photo of what I had in mind and she nailed it for the trial and day of the wedding. The day of the wedding it was Chelsea and Ness for myself, 4 bridesmaids and my mom - they made us all look and feel so beautiful and they even finished sooner than we expected for our timeline. All of our makeup and hair stayed in tact all day and thats from first thing in the morning through a long session of photos and busting out on the dance floor - and we all look flawless in all the photos. So HUGE thank you to Chelsea and Ness!! Also, she has her own line of lashes and they're the best lashes I have ever worn, highly recommend using her lashes for the wedding! xx
Chelsea was so amazing! I had gone to one other vendor before her and was super disappointed with the quality. When I saw the finished product at my trial with Chelsea, I was blown away! She truly knows what she is doing and I felt the way I had always imagined I would on my wedding day. She and her girls were prompt and prepared on the day of the wedding. Even in the odd space we were in and the odd outlet issues, they knew what to do and got right to it. I had 7 bridesmaids, my 2 nieces, and 2 moms getting hair and makeup done and they handled it like champs! They were so fun and made getting ready an awesome, stress-free experience! I even had a last-minute change on what I wanted to do with my hair and Chelsea made it happen-and it was beautiful! Everyone looked beautiful and felt great thanks to the Fuse team! I would 100% recommend them to anyone considering them for their wedding!
I was a bridesmaid in a wedding a couple of weeks ago, Fuse hair did my makeup and hair. I was so pleased with everything!! I'm really picky about my hair and they did an exceptional job. My makeup looked so beautiful, it wasn't overdone and it was perfect. They even touched me up right before we left. The service was amazing, they really listen and take in account what you want and are comfortable with. I would definitely use them again for a special event!
Wow!! Chelsea and her team absolutely killed it at my wedding!! As a bride I was afraid of being overdone or not looking like myself. Chelsea did such an amazing job on my hair and make up everyone kept telling me I looked like I came out of a bridal magazine!! My hair was perfect and stayed the whole night ( I danced a lot). My make up clean and stayed the whole night as well and it was so smooth!! My bridesmaids looked so beautiful and even they loved the team. And I have some girls who are very picky but they nailed it!!
I deff will use Chelsea and FUSE again for any special event I have to go to!! Chelsea is not just a vendor but she becomes your friend and you just feel so safe and trusting with her!! Love this company and the girls!! Thank you for making my day so perfect!!!!
My SIL used FUSE for hair and makeup for her wedding a few weeks ago and they did amazing! 9 bridesmaids and 3 mamas within a few hours and we all looked gorgeous. My makeup lasted the whole day and night. Thank you FUSE for making ya look beautiful for my SIL and bro’s wedding!!
Chelsea is great! She was very attentive to everything I asked or needed. She gave me the most wonderful team in Tawny (makeup artist) & Abby (hairstylist) they were wonderful and everyone looked beautiful. I highly recommend them for and event!
Chelsea and Chasity did the hair and makeup for me and my bridal party, and they did a GREAT job! They are both so sweet and kind. They are professional and made sure everyone got ready on time. The hair and makeup looks lasted all night! I am so happy we booked Fuse Hair & Beauty!
Chelsea is amazing at what she does! Her artistic hair and makeup skills are Superb. She did my hair and makeup, my mother's and my sister's hair and makeup to perfection. She was even able to squeeze in another close friend of my sister's last minute. She is super friendly and really knows how to make you look incredible on your special day. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone. I hope I get the chance to use her services again soon.
Let me start off by saying I am so picky!! As I am also in the beauty industry, I also do hair and make up so you can imagine how picky I would be but there’s no one else I’d rather do my hair on the biggest day of my life than Chelsea. She made my vision come to life! Pick FUSE because you will not be disappointed!
Chelsea and Ness worked on myself and 2 friends for a pinup Bachelorette party and the results were outstanding! These ladies are extremely talented and professional. Chelsea has been doing my hair and makeup for multiple events for years. Her work is flawless and I’m grateful for how beautiful she makes me feel.
Chelsea and her team were absolutely incredible on my day! Her work is amazing and she is such a pleasure! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.
I wish I lived closer so I could have her do my hair and makeup for EVERY special occassion. I can’t rave enough about her!!!
Chelsea went above and beyond to make sure I looked stunning on my special day. I have never had so many compliments on my makeup. She was friendly, professional, on time, and I could go on and on with how pleased I was with Fuse. I will recommend her to everyone I know looking for a makeup artist. Beyond pleased and satisfied and fir this reason I gave 5 stars.
Chelsea did my hair and make up for my wedding a couple weeks ago and did an amazing job! Everyone looked so beautiful she made the day perfect!
Chelsea and her team are AH-MAZING!! They helped make my bachelorette party absolutely perfect. It was a 1940s theme and I walked in with a picture from pinterest of hair and make up that maybe might work and My hair stylist suggested that I might make it more of a bob style to shake things up a bit because I have very long hair. I said sure that sounds like fun. Not understanding how absolutely perfect it wouldn't turn out. I had many friends who thought I had cut my hair!! They nailed the looks, their team worked efficiently and professionally and even more awesome- got all the girls done ahead of schedule! My wedding was a small destination wedding out of the country otherwise Chelsea would have been the only person to do my hair and makeup on my big day!
Chelsea did an amazing job with mine and my bridal party's hair! She was very quick and professional and made sure we had everything for any hair mishaps, which wasn't necessary. Our hairstyles lasted all night and looked fabulous. She was prompt and made sure we were done in plenty of time.
I was recommended to FUSE hair & Beauty Inc. by my friend. I LOVED their services! I was lucky to have Chelsea come & do my makeup/hair. She did exactly what I wanted. I was extremely pleased & I can't wait to book her services again! Thank you Chelsea : )
Chelsea and her team are simply THE BEST! Not only is she professional, reliable, economical and a pleasure to work with, she will make you looking beautiful on your big day! I highly recommend Fuse 😍
Recently had Chelsea and Ness to my hair and make up as well as my daughters, sister and moms for my sons wedding. We all looked beautiful. They are very professional and do such a great job. They also did my wedding almost 2 years ago. They will always be my go to for any even I need hair and make-up! Love you both! I can't thank you enough for the fantastic job you both did.
Chelsea is the best for both hair & makeup. Very professional and really knows her stuff! Any bride looking for makeup artist, go with Fuse. 👍
Chelsea is the best ever. She transforms people into feeling nothing short from amazing. She improves the self esteem of so many models and brides. I highly recommend her.
Chelsea is awesome. She did my hair and makeup for my wedding and baby shower. I wouldn't go anywhere else! Very professional and beautiful makeup!
I don't often take the time to write reviews, but this one is worth it! Hiring Chelsea and her glam sqaud was seriously one of the best things I did for my wedding. I had myself, 5 bridesmaids, a flower girl and 3 moms who all need hair AND makeup done. Chelsea and her girls were not only on time, professional and fun, but they made us all look SO incredible! Each person had a different face shape or skin type and we all looked so stunning and flawless. We were all so inpressed that my maid of honor went on to hire the Fuse glam girls for her wedding! So here's a tip from a former bride to a soon to be bride, hire fuse so you can feel like the best version of yourself on the biggest day of your life! Trust me, looking fabulous should be the last thing you will want worry about!
Chelsea and her team are amazing! Chelsea listens to what you want, your own vision of how you want to look on your big day and works her magic to make it into reality. She is very professional, worked with the photographers/wedding coordinator to set up a timeline to ensure that each bridesmaid and others in the wedding party will have enough time for hair and make-up. The end result of her and her team’s work is just gorgeous. They make each girl look and feel beautiful! The best part is one of my bridesmaids loved her work so much that she booked Chelsea for her own wedding! I highly recommend Fuse Hair and Beauty!
Chelsea is amazing!!! I am so happy I found her and had her do my hair and make-up for my wedding day. Being out of state it was really hard searching for the right person, plus I wouldn't be able to do a trial which is really scary. Just from our interactions and following her Instagram I knew she was the one.
Communication was great, she arrived to our hotel the morning of the wedding and did my hair and make-up as well as my moms. I felt so beautiful and got so many compliments through out the day. Plus everything stayed in place! Even my wedding planner mentioned how it looks like I just had my make up and hair done even though I was dancing like crazy!
I tend to get really flushed when under stress or dancing around a lot and you would have never noticed.
No doubt that if I have another event in the area I will contact Chelsea. She is so sweet and easy to talk to. She even had the best tips for me regarding my wedding...like dealing with the dress and the restroom. I felt like I knew her for years.
Chelsea and Ness worked on myself and my 6 bridesmaid on my wedding day. They were absolutely amazing! Coming from out of state, I thought it was going to be hard finding someone who was so willing to work with me. Chelsea made it so easy to work with and it was so nice because they came to us the day of! My bridesmaids and I were getting compliments all night about how great our hair and makeup turned out. Thank you guys so much for the amazing job you did and for making it fun! You guys are great!
Wonderful experience! I was able to meet Chelsea after having a horrible experience with another hair and makeup business. She was so sweet to me. She listened to me vent about my previous experience and immediately made me feel at ease and comfortable. She is crazy talented and did an awesome job with my hair and makeup! I feel so fortunate to have found her and that she was available for my wedding!! I would recommend her a million times!
I seriously cannot say enough good things about Chelsea and her company Fuse Beauty! I first met Chelsea when I was a bridesmaid in a friend's wedding and I was so impressed by her work that I hired her and her team for my wedding! She is seriously the best at what she does and so is her team of awesome make up artists and hair stylists! My best friend who had her makeup done by Fuse for my wedding went on to hire them for her wedding which was just a few weeks ago. OMG...Chelsea and her girls really outdid themselves this time! I was literally OBSESSED with my hair and makeup and the Bride was stunning!!! Chelsea is not only an amazing make up artist and stylist, but she's so warm and friendly! You seriously feel like you have been friends with her your whole life!! The rest of her team is equally amazing and friendly!!! Fuse Beauty really is the best you can find!
My best friend used FUSE Hair and Beauty and after meeting Chelsea I knew i just haf to use her for her for my own!!
Chelsea and her amazing team are truly the best! Chelsea is very responsive to text and emails (which I was having issues with my other vendors :/) but she will respond to your text right away!
She does an amazing trial run, And honestly makes you feel like you have been friends for years!
I had 8 bridesmaids, my mom and the mother of the groom, so a total of 11 girls that needed to be ready by 1:00. Chelsea and her team of girls showed up on time and finished all 11 of us right on time (which is so important for a wedding).
Chelsea is so sweet and truly cares about you. She made me feel like one amazing bride for my wedding (not gonna lie I was obssed with my hair and makeup)! You can tell she has 100% pride in her company. We all Loved spending the mornjng with her and the team.
If you are torn between who to use for your hair and makeup, I 100% recommend using Chelsea!!
On my wedding day everyone completely dropped the ball on me. I was alone with Chelsea (and the flowers girls I was forced to babysit) in my dressing room getting ready for the most important day of my life. I started crying and she comforted me, we were forced to switch dressing rooms TWICE and she didn't complain at all(and she in her third trimester of pregnancy!) and she made everyone, including myself, look AMAZING. I loved the way she did my hair and makeup and I love that my hair actually looked great all night. I normally have a problem with my hair quickly falling apart so I am grateful she made sure that didn't happen. I would definitely recommend her to anyone, she won't let you down!
While searching for local hair and makeup services I came across Fuse Hair & Makeup. I emailed for a quote and received a quick response from Chelsea. I made and appointment for a trial. My sister came with me she extremely honest and that is what I needed. We loved Chelsea's up beat personally. She was welcoming, relatable, and amazing at her gift. She did exactly what I wanted. So I booked her. She came out to my venue the day of my wedding with one other assistant. She stayed on schedule made everyone look amazing. She was perfect fit for my big day. Her energy and awesome personality helped me keep my zen. I loved my hair and makeup and all the bridesmaids loved theirs too. So much so that my best friend wished that she had found Chelsea for her wedding. I highly recommend Chelsea a her team for any of you future brides. You will not be disappointed. She will help you feel beautiful on the best day of your life.
I don't wear very much make up and had a difficult time finding hair/makeup for my wedding. I had done 4 separate hair trials with different vendors and was not happy with any of the results. I wanted to look like a polished version of myself, but in every trial I looked unrecognizable.
THEN I was asked to do a styled bridal photo shoot as a favor to a friend where I met Chelsea. She made me feel so gorgeous and was so professional, and is just awesome at what she does. I hired her right then and there for my wedding.
For my wedding we did a traditional Chinese tea ceremony in the morning and did the American ceremony later that day. Chelsea came early and stayed all day doing my first hair/makeup look for the tea ceremony and then the second look for the other ceremony. She also did my bridesmaids and mom. My wedding day got chaotic as expected (with just too many relatives everywhere!) and she kept me calm, she went looking for a strong alcoholic drinks for me, and even stayed until after the ceremony for touch ups. She even helped me get in and out of my very tight dress when I had to go to the bathroom ;) The hair and makeup was gorgeous and my bridesmaids loved her, but she was just also so helpful with just being there for me that day. I honestly wouldn't have been able to do it without her! Thank you Chelsea!!
I actually found Fuse through The Knot, and I'm beyond thankful that I did. Chelsea was such a sweetheart when I contacted her. Ness and Megan were the two ladies that helped me figure out what I wanted for my hair & makeup. When I went for my trial, I didn't have anything specific in mind for my own hair/makeup, and both Ness & Megan did an amazing job at improvising based off of what styles I liked. When the wedding day came around, getting ready was one of my favorite parts of the day. Ness & Megan got along so well with everyone in my bridal party, and we all had so much fun. They also had the best playlist which was an entire throwback to my highschool days. Forever thankful that those ladies were a part of my wedding day.
Chelsea was an awesome makeup and hair stylist. she was all about satisfaction. She gave me a soft flawless look. She did airbrush make-up on my face. It was exactly what I wanted; flawless skin that felt super light. She did exactly what i requested!
Chelsea also did my hair, and did such a beautiful job. We tried a few different looks and she didn’t give up until I was completely happy. Chelsea is completely genuine and understanding of the importance of her customers happiness and satisfaction. Thank you!!
They both were great! They were willing to work with my budget and came on location for the wedding day in Lake Arrowhead. Chelsea was very accommodating and was willing to do a hair/make up trial two days before my wedding! I have a very loud, large family (running around the location the entire morning). Chelsea and Ness were able to work with through it with ease and executed gorgeous make up on myself (the bride) and the bridesmaids. Bridesmaids were extremely happy about how the make up turned out. Everyone looked gorgeous. Highly recommend the air brush make up-- it looked great all night long- no one had to do any touch ups at all which was amazing!
Trying to find decent Hair and Make Up Artists for the big day can be scary- I went through a few trials before finding Fuse Hair & Beauty. Wish I went to them first! Request for Chelsea and Ness- work great together and will give you exactly what you want!
On my wedding day not only did I look amazing and beautiful I felt it. Fuse hair & Beauty is amazing on time and reliable very gifted and professional. My hair and make up was extraordinary it lasted all day and I loved what contouring and highlights did to my face. I will keep this memory for the rest or my life and I am glad I had them on my team to make me feel like the queen bee on my special memorable day. May God keep blessing you business.
Chelsea was awesome!! Most of all she was very professional, and was very accommodating. I had two pictures chosen for hair & makeup and she got it perfect. I love the way everything turned out. She did an awesome job, even though I live on the East Coast I would totally recommend her to any of my friends that live on the West Coast who are getting married or just want to look good for a night out.
The girls at FUSE Hair and Beauty made my wedding amazing! They were punctual and kept great communication leading up to my wedding. Chelsea in particular was wonderful and really made sure I was 100% satisfied and I definitely was! I've never felt so beautiful! I used them for hair and makeup for myself and my mother. I highly recommend them to anyone I know getting married.
I am not picky about many things, with the exception of my hair and make up! I cannot begin to tell you what a great job Fuse for my wedding. From the hair and make up test to the day of, fuse was reasonably priced and did an excellent job. Even the energy of the stylist was amazing. If you want to have amazing hair and make up, and have a great time, use Fuse!!!
I had the pleasure of working with Chelsea for my wedding day, and i couldnt have been happier with her and her staff. My hair and makeup were done beautifully along with all of my bridal party. Chelsea did such a good job that i have continued to use her services for all of my haircuts since my wedding. Not only is Chelsea a true professional, but shes actually turned out to be a great friend. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who wants to look beautiful on their wedding day, or any other special occasion!
Fuse hair was AWESOME. I had a woman named Ness (Vanessa) and she was fantastic. She really calmed me down for my wedding, was very professional, sweet, nice and did great work. She showed up early and stayed late to make sure everything was perfect. I highly recommend her and this company. I believe the owners name is Chelsea who schedules you with one of her stylists and she was great too. She takes the time to go over everything with you and give you all sorts of options to fit exactly what you need on your special day. GREAT GREAT WORK. I AM SO HAPPY WITH THEM.
I have to say that Chelsea and her crew did not disappoint. She does Flawless Airbrush and gorgeous hair. My Airbrush makeup was flawless and lasted till the next day. My makeup was naturally beautiful she took her time i was thoroughly impressed. Im a very picky girl (as a makeup artist myself). Still I continue to use her for our Military Balls. She gives great prices on groups and offers a Military discount which i Appreciate so much!
She drove out to Point Loma Naval base for our event which was wonderful! Thank you Chelsea for your amazing work and continued support to our Military Brides & Families
I was referred to FUSE hair & makeup by my coordinator. I did a lot of research on Makeup artists/Hairstylists before actually going with FUSE hair. I was specifically looking for someone who did onsite services, airbrush makeup and who was competitively priced. Chelsea provided just that!
Before the wedding, she creates a timeline for everyone receiving services which was REALLY nice cuz everyone was on the same page. On the day of my wedding, she arrived on time and finished on time! My bridesmaids, my mom and I all LOVED our looks!
Even though I initially hired her to do my hair/makeup for my wedding but have gone to her on several occasions (Engagement photos, a special event for my church, my bridal shower, etc.). She is very professional, easy to get a hold of, such a sweetheart and is a pleasure to talk to while she's working on your hair/makeup! I always brought in a picture of a look I was going for. Not only is she able to replicate it, but her work really makes you feel BEAUTIFUL! She is also very flexible... If I didn't like something, she gladly changed it to what I wanted. I've received SO many compliments EVERY TIME she's done my hair and makeup. I feel very comfortable with her and have even gone to her post-wedding for a hair cut! Can't go wrong with FUSE Hair & Beauty! Thanks Chelsea for everything!
Chelsea is an absolute sweetheart and pleasure to work with! She's great at everything she does and has an amazing team as well!
From the first call with Chelsea, I felt confident that she knew what she was doing and she did not disappoint! Throughout the entire process, she was organized and always one step ahead. It was comforting to have a vendor be so organized, it was one less thing to have to worry about!
Chelsea and her team showed up early to get us started the morning of the wedding and stayed until after we completed our vows to do any necessary touch ups and make sure we were still gorgeous for pictures and our grand entrance!! Every dollar spent was worth it and I would do it all over again!
I would highly recommend FUSE hair and beauty!!!
Chelsea is SUCH a sweetheart! I went to her for a hair and make-up trial for my wedding after a less than desirable experience with another MUA, who just made me feel cakey with make-up, didn’t do anything that looked like the pics I showed her, and was borderline rude, telling me that if I want to look good in my wedding pics, I HAD TO wear a ton of make-up. I was horrified when I looked in the mirror and so needless to say, I was a little hesitant to venture out again, seeing as how trials don’t always come cheap, and there’s obviously no guarantee for satisfaction.
Fortunately, when it came to Chelsea, she was all about satisfaction. She totally understood that I wanted a soft flawless daytime look, but not layer upon layer of make-up. She did airbrush make-up on my face, and the blush was airbrushed as well. It was EXACTLY what I wanted; flawless skin that felt super light. She did a great job on my shadow and she was even understanding that I am one of those people who are weird about their eyebrows and was totally cool about letting me do my own.
Chelsea also worked on my hair, and did such a beautiful job. We tried a few different looks and she didn’t give up until I was completely happy. There was no guilt trip or rushy rushy feeling, she is just completely genuine and understanding of the importance of her customers happiness, it is very refreshing!
I booked Chelsea for my wedding and she and Genevie (another member of Fuse) came to my house the day of. These poor girls hauled their butts over to arrive at 4:45 am on a Sunday, bless their hearts, to accommodate my morning wedding. They were so sweet the entire time, working on 6 of us. They did an incredible job dolling us up, I don’t think any of us have ever looked or felt more beautiful.
Thank you so much Chelsea, Genevie, and Fuse for your amazing talent, attention to detail, and beautiful personalities, you guys are awesome!
My wedding day was planned to the very last detail, the venue, florist, caterer, everything. The one detail I had left to book was my make up and hair. I received a referral from a friend who had her hair extensions and make up done by Chelsea at Fuse Hair and Beauty for her wedding. My friend was absolutely breathtaking at her wedding, down to the last curl on her hair to the perfectly placed individual lashes for her make up. Hair and make up are not talents of mine. I knew if I wanted to look my best, I would need a professional which is exactly what I found in Chelsea! After looking at myself in the mirror for the first time, I teared up. Never in my life had I thought I looked this good, yet alone beautiful, which is what every bride should feel on her wedding day, right? My twin sister and mom also received services from Chelsea and I was beyond satisified, I was elated. The pictures turned out amazing because of the hair and make up that we all had. They truly were the perfect touches. Since then, my sister and I have become regular clients of Fuse. Chelsea is now booked to style our hair and make up for my brother's upcoming wedding in October! When you find a good stylist, you hold on to her!
I found FUSE Hair & Beauty and schedule an appointment for the Bride to meet Chelsea. We ABSOLUTELY LOVED Chelsea's personality, and her excitement to make the Bride feel 100% Beautiful on her wedding day. We booked her for the Bride's Big Day and she was great at making a schedule for the Big Day, and kept in contact to assure that the Bride was feeling comfortable up until her Big Day. The pricing was very reasonable for the effort Chelsea and her ladies put into all of the bridal party. From the start of the wedding until the end, Chelsea and her stylists helped create a calm, relaxing, yet fun environment for the all of the Bridal Party. Chelsea was very patient and encouraging to make the nervous bride feel and look AMAZING! I would definitely recommend FUSE Hair & Makeup to anyone, not just Brides and Bridesmaids, but who ever is looking for a great Stylists and Makeup Artist.I know when my Big Day comes, I plan to see if I can book her as well!
What a memorable day Fuse Hair & Beauty created for my daughter and her bridal party - including me! We began bright and early the morning of the wedding when Chelsea, along with two of her assistants, met us in our hotel suite. We spent the rest of the morning and early afternoon being pampered, relaxing, and laughing with these three. When it was time to move on to the wedding venue, Chelsea packed up her gear and came along. She not only provided ongoing makeup and hair touchups to my daughter up to and including the reception's grand entrance at 6:30 pm but also touched up all of our makeup prior to the ceremony. Something everyone, except the bride, didn't expect.
Chelsea and her team were professional, organized, fun, caring, and skillful. I didn't even mention the time Chelsea spent with us prior to the wedding. We met first for a consult. She instantly made us feel at home and was clear - as well as thorough - in explaining the available services she could/would provide. As the date of the wedding approached, my daughter met with Chelsea to do a hair and make-up preview. This is a must! My daughter thought she wanted a certain look for her hair. While Chelsea did a wonderful job creating exactly what my daughter described, it ended up not being the look she'd hoped for. Chelsea offered to schedule another preview day - at no extra charge - and came up with the perfect style at that time! The make-up? We hit the jackpot on the very first try. My daughter looked absolutely ravishing on her special day.
I can't say enough about how pleased we were with the services the Fuse Hair & Beauty team provided. If you choose them for your own special event, you won't be disappointed!
I had the pleasure of working with Fuse Hair & Beauty for not 1 but 5 events over the last year. They did an amazing job not only with my Engagement session, Wedding Preview & Bridal Shower and Wedding (whole wedding party) but I was also pampered and glammed up for a boudoir session. Amazing work and with a totally affordable price!!
Always on time and prepared. My wedding party loved the high level of service. They were pampered and glammed up!
I used Chelsea, owner of FUSE, and she was wonderful, her work was beautiful and it lasted! I used my trial makeup session for my engagement shoot at Disneyland. I was there for 12 hours and it did not smudge, run, or fade. My makeup looked great in my engagement pics but it looked BEAUTIFUL for my wedding pics. There were so many pics where I said "Wow my makeup looks so good." I was so happy with my look, she delivered my vision and it just looked amazing. Chelsea was sweet and attentive to work with! I spent $125 for the wedding day and she travels to you and $75 for the trial so if its in your budget then book her!
I first met Chelsea with FUSE last October 2012 in preparation for my wedding, which was Nov 2012, and since then I have ditched my old stylist (sorry) and chose to start going to Chelsea. To this day (July 2013), I still go to her to get get my hair done, etc. She is super patient, kind, organized, and all about making you look and feel good. Her staff are also great. They are all about customer service and very, very knowledgeable. I cannot say enough nice things about FUSE and can honestly say that you would be CRAZY not to choose the for any beauty service. XO
Chelsea and her girls at Fuse Hair & Beauty really worked hard to make all of my hair and beauty dreams come true for me on my wedding day. The preview process is absolutely essential so that Chelsea can get to know your personal sense of style and wants/needs. No matter what it was, Chelsea was going above and beyond for me even when she fell very ill. She always found a way to accommodate my needs and make me feel very comfortable with her services. On the day of the wedding, we had Chelsea, Genevie, and Charity. They arrived on time and ready to work on my four bridesmaids, flower girl, mom, and myself. All three of the women excel in their makeup and hair abilities and made us all look and feel absolutely beautiful. Chelsea spent time getting me prepped and beautiful, she even put in the hair extensions that I ordered from her (great quality and beautiful). Chelsea also came to my venue and touched me up before and after the ceremony. I definitely recommend Fuse Hair & Beauty for any bride and her bridal party. They will make you feel like a pampered princess for sure!
I came to Chelsea with a few photos of how I wanted my wedding hair and makeup done and she completely delivered! She was so accommodating with my schedule and even invited me to return for a second “preview,” free of charge, so that she could incorporate my clip in extensions in hopes of achieving the voluminous look I was going for (I have very fine hair). My bridesmaids and I all had our hair and makeup done and we all looked incredible (if I do say so myself!).
Chelsea is fantastic! Truly. Not only is she great at hair and make-up, but she listens to you. She worked with me to find a great hair style and make-up that wasn't too made up. She was very professional throughout every phone call, text and day of time. She offers help if you have no ideas and will alter it if you aren't happy. She also helped to keep me calm on the day of! I love her. She is a nice gal and loves what she does. She allows for so much time on the 'trial' day too! She also gave me suggestions for the hair accessories (which were beautiful and cheap)! I felt very beautiful thanks to her work! Plus, she also offers classes on make-up application. She does it all and has a minimal travel fee for as far as she goes. I was blessed to have her be a part of my big day!
Chelsea did my make up for my wedding on Nov 18th and it turned out SO nice! She's very professional and really knows what she's doing. I got compliments all night and I'm still hearing how beautiful I looked :) Thanks Chelsea, you rock!
Chelsea thank you for being so wonderful and occomodating!! I had a trial make up run with Chelsea she was so cute and sweet and really listened to what i was looking for. I brought a picture of what kind of make up i thought i wanted. She was able to do exactly the same kind of make up on my face. It was beautiful. I left and contacted her the next day and told her that it was to much like my 'everyday' make up. She said no problem i gaurantee my work when can you come back in? I came in a week later she did two different make up styles on me and they were both beautiful. I choose my favorite one and she recreated that look the day of my wedding. I have an acne problem but you wouldnt know cause i looked flawless on my wedding day!! The make up stayed on and looked beautiful through the whole day. Not to mention i was worried my hair stylist wasnt going to show up so she made sure to bring an extra stylist to make sure we had a back up plan. My sisters tan gave her a weird tan on her leg that was from a tanning salon so Chelsea brought her mobile tanning booth and set it up right in the living room and fixed my sisters tan. Chelsea is awesome!!! She is prepared for anything! She makes you feel like everything is perfect and she will figure it out if there is a problem. I highly recommend her services. I will be hiring her again for all of my future beauty needs.
Chelsea was amazing, she was able to give me an up-do exactly, if not better then I imagined for my wedding day. I opted to not do a preview and many people would frown upon this but Chelsea was so kind to come way earlier then usual on my wedding day to start my hair, just in case we needed to do a different style. I loved the airbrush makeup also that she did. Chelsea knows what she is doing to make a bride beautiful on her wedding day.
I live in Chicago and was planning a destination wedding in southern California. I found Chelsea on WeddingWire, and because of her good reviews I emailed her for a quote. She called me right away and was so nice and genuine I immediately felt comfortable with her. I was able to do a hair & make-up trial with her when I visited California in November. The thing that really impressed me was when Chelsea saw that I was stressed out about the wedding a few months later, (via a Facebook status), she gave me a call just to make sure I was ok and see if she could help in any way. I thought that was SO sweet!
Of course, she did an amazing job on my makeup and my sister's hair, and Genevie did an awesome job on my hair!! There's not many out there as good as her or many people who truly care and want you to look your best on your wedding day! I would HIGHLY recommend Chelsea & FUSE hair and beauty to anyone!!
Chelsea was wonderful and super friendly!I Not only are they very professional but they did such a wonderful job with my hair and makeup!! I received so many compliments from guests at my wedding ;) They also did a beautiful job with my bridesmaids as well. I'm so glad I chose Fuse for my wedding! Would highly recommend!!
Chelsea was great! Her team was so friendly and efficient. They were done on time too. Her team did myself and bridesmaids hair and makeup as well as both mothers. We all got so many compliments. I was very happy with Fuse Hair!
I had no idea what I wanted to do with my hair and makeup, I went on to Fuse's website and it was there, my perfect hair and makeup! Chelsea executed it beautifully and I was so shocked at how glamourous I looked. She was so friendly, and really made me feel at ease throughout the whole process. She was very professional and I trusted her completely with making me look fantastic for my big day. I wouldn't have changed a thing and would recomend her in a heartbeat!
Chelsea and Gen don't just do your hair and apply make up....they are true artists that are masters at their crafts. I've received tons of compliments and my MoH and mom both looked gorgeous. They are professionals and showed up at the crack of dawn (5am) ready to make the 3 of us beautiful. You won't regret booking FUSE.
I would never EVER recommend these people for a wedding. Things started off great - I really liked my hair during my trial run and I was able to get ahold of my hairstylist fairly easily. I began getting worried when I noticed that they always failed to meet deadlines they set. (For example, they were supposed to email me a schedule by Friday...they didn't sent it until the following Tuesday. They said they would send me updates at 3:00...I didn't hear from them until 7:00, etc.) Anyways, on the day of my wedding FUSE showed up TWO HOURS LATE!!!!!! Their contract states that they will show up 30 minutes prior to your hair start time. My start time was 9:00 a.m. (so they should have been there at 8:30). At 8:45, I received a call that they were "running late" and would be there by 10:00. At 10:00, they still weren't there!! At 10:15, they called because they were lost!! It was shortly after 10:30 when they finally arrived. I was extremely upset. Once they arrived they worked very quickly...which caused several of my bridesmaids to be upset with their hair. We ended up asking them to re-do several of them. My hairdo (the bride!!) also turned out very different from my trial and unfortunately we didn't have any time to change it. I would NOT recommend this vendor to anyone!!!!
Just wanted to say thank you to the Fuse team for everything... They were very professional, listened to concerns, were patient, and allowed plenty of time to determine what looks worked best. Even after changing my mind day of the wedding for my hair, they created a look that was exactly what I wanted! They are kind, personable, and make you feel beautiful/comfortable at all times!
