Leslies Arts

ride is unquestionable, and her experience and knowledge is invaluable. Not to mention she’ll make you look GORGEOUS! When I first contacted her she was already booked on my wedding date but still took me on — providing full consultation and preliminary services, and set me up with a wonderful associate of hers to provide my wedding day hair and makeup services. Then, post ceremony she went above and beyond, bending over backwards to make it to my wedding for after styling! Leslie exceeded all expectations and played such an intricate role in making my day perfect. Thank you Leslie! Can’t wait to share my wedding pics with you! Much love!!

air. Put all this together - I was dreading hair & makeup. All fears melted away after my first phone call with Leslie. Don't know what jewelry or shoes to wear with your dress? She'll source them. Not sure how to heal your acne? She'll send you a customized skincare regimen. Leslie consulted with me for months - what makeup artist does that?! All my accessories were picked by her. On wedding day, she came prepared with disability-friendly resources and a calming, soothing demeanor. She didn't mind I didn't have a wedding party - she was willing to travel just for me & my mom. I am not exaggerating when I say I have never looked so beautiful in my life. I have never received so many compliments on my hair or makeup before, and I likely never will again. I walked down the aisle feeling like a princess. Most of all, I appreciated Leslie's willingness to share her decades of knowledge and experience with me. I learned so much! To say she goes above and beyond is an understatement. There's really nothing bad I can say - I can't recommend her enough!

rly hair to then have them re-curl it. I honestly didn't know what to do. Yes ladies, imagine this happening 4 days before your wedding. My husband contacted Leslie without me knowing and she not only spoke with him over the phone, but she also gave him other alternatives as well. This was supposed to be the only day off that Leslie would have had in over a week and she decided to come to the rescue. After my last experience I was a bit nervous but Wow, did Leslie amaze me! When she came to our Airbnb she and Carlita had their own tables, chairs everything you can think of. They were a true mobile salon. As the morning began Leslie started with the most amazing aromatherapy bath that honestly made my eyes roll to the back of my head. While I was getting the ultimate pampering my best friends are getting beautified by Carlita and all I hear is laughter radiating throughout the house. The energy and vibe that these ladies have is envirgating. Leslie was able to give me my dream boho look while using my naturally curly hair. How she braided portions of my hair and weaved it with the flowers was remarkable. I honestly felt like Daenerys Targaryen from Game of Thrones, powerful and beautiful. Her make-up was lovely, she brought out the green in my eyes and gave me such a delicate natural look. Don't waste your time looking at any more hair or makeup artist. Leslie is the ONE! If you are undeceive of the Holistic skin treatment, DO IT! You will not regret it. I felt like I had just left a yoga retreat before getting married. Can't stop reminiscing about the beautiful experience that my girlfriends and I had, just magical. She was truly my fairy hair/ makeup artist! So in love with the type of service Leslies Arts offers. High quality!

. She will try and steer you the way she wants it. Don't try and give your opinion she will shoot it down. Leslie, took advantage of my inexperienced with makeup and hair and charged me for it. Her knowledge doesn't come free, is what I learned. Watch out for people that just want to use brides as dollar signs. Go to someone who wants to enjoy your day with you.

t into what Leslie deemed the right way. I ended up paying more for a hotel in Boulder so I would not have to pay more than the $1800 I was already paying Leslie for. Really know the laws and read your contracts for any professional you deal with. There was tension between my whole bridal party and Leslie. If you can just focus on what needs to be done, Leslie is a great choice.

roughly go through every aspect of my wishes, wants and helped me make them happen. I honestly believe she was the foundation for such a beautiful success on the day I was married.

... every time my goes over to her place for a trial run, my wife said Leslie really take care of her. I would recommend Leslie to be any brides makeup artist! She really enhanced my wife’s beauty that day! -Jason

the information she imparts is evidenced-based. She contributes to product research and studies which I, daresay, is what we need in this world so as to protect us from harmful beauty brands. I started using some products she had recommended and I like the results! 2. She has an A-team of hair/make-up stylists that comes with her. But she is a full hands-on hair and make-up artist. On the day of, she will focus on the person who will be the "focus of the day". The bride. Her hair and make-up skills is an art in itself and of course, you are the canvas. She is a master in bringing out your best beauty assets. 3. She offers an after-styling service. She does MUH for commercial and prints and as a former model herself, she knows that during photo shoot, the subject , without any assistance, juggles with a lot of things (e.g. shoes on wet or muddy grass, train of the dress, light/drizzling rain, etc.). This service she offers, takes care of these little annoying, albeit minor things. While the photographer focuses on his own craft, at times, he is not aware that certain unwanted parts are exposed e.g. "back fats", askew hat/dress, etc. She spots these and corrects it. In my case, after she left, the photographer took us for late afternoon shots and while the photos were fabulous, that certain part mentioned had popped out and was most likely caused by the "readjustment" of the gown from hugging and doing other movements. I know exercise and diet would fix this ,too. :) But anyway, if I extended this service, that could have been easily avoided. 4. If you don't have one yet, she will suggest and/or will work with you on what accessory may go with your dress and hair. She got mine from at a gems and jewels show though she has a nice collection as well. The fees are a little pricey but I have no regrets because I reckoned it is reasonable. I did a little research before signing in with Leslie Arts though, and compared it with other MUHs. Her services surpass theirs.

ith makeup and hair, but in how to take care of your skin and body in the months leading up to the wedding so you can look your best, naturally. Her after-styling services on the day of our wedding were superb and so helpful, not to mention her hair and makeup work were absolutely perfect.

ke up and helped me with outfit choices/color, accessories and even the best route to take to downtown Denver. She also gave me tips on how to present myself on camera. She was able to perfectly capture the look I was hoping to relay on camera. The producer was so impressed with my hair and make up the he asked me who the artist was and said that she really knew what she was doing and it looked great on camera. He also said the outfit choice and color was perfect. Leslie really takes pride in what she does and wants her clients to look their best and wants her clients to be successful. It paid off, during my shoot I was asked to be a spokes person for the company I was shooting for. I highly recommend Leslie!

comfort her mother as much as possible. Leslie did well getting everyone's opinions on what they like for their make up and hair styles. Leslie not only educated everyone on their skin care and hair but she also helped educate people on health tips. She did a great job making everyone beautiful and helped everyone enjoy the time getting ready for the big day!!!

was originally intending on spending, but she was 100% worth it! My hair and makeup looked perfect the entire night and we didn't even need to use the emergency kit she included. She also did my eyebrows that morning and I don't think they've ever looked better! She does those eyelashes that come in individual clusters, so they look more realistic. As a short girl, with a bit of a baby face, I was a little worried that my hair would make me look like I was going to prom. Leslie was very reassuring with my concerns and made my hair look absolutely elegant. I looked (and felt) like a bride. I would highly recommend Leslie's services. She's well worth it!

assistant to help her so she could take care of me, my sister, both mothers and the flower girl. We didn't have a chance to do a consultation but she was very professional and made great suggestions for all of us. Her products were high quality and my makeup looked great all day and night.

t only talented but a wonderful person as well. She provides an after styling service for brides and it was the best thing I could have ever spent money on. She will help make sure you look fantastic in every picture and be there to touch up your makeup after the ceremony. Definitely a must do!

ways ended up with why what we had been doing before was wrong and why we should do it Leslie's way. At the wedding day it felt like Leslie took over and was even described as bossy by someone who hadn't met her before. Her makeup and hair work is beautiful but definitely have a trial and decide if her strong personality will fit with your wedding party.

e offered good advice and gentle guidance on making sure we would be able to be flexible if need be regarding the original plans. Ended up having the ceremony and party at our Boulder home as our venue was closed due to flood damage. Leslie arrived at the house in the morning, and stayed with us till 7 that night. Making sure the bride and her mother looked beautiful for photos and the party. She did an amazing redo on my daughter's hair after the ceremony as the original style (which had been done by someone else) didn't hold. Leslie is a lovely woman, kind, honest and extremely talented. I would highly recommend her for your special day.

eslie put me at ease quickly. She was fun and friendly and spent a LOT of time with us so we could feel comfortable with her and with her process. She honestly feels like a good friend at this point and I am looking forward to having her at my side for the wedding. She is marvelous.

nstead of having a beauty day I had a self conscious see all my flaws kinda day. then I had to leave early to pick my daughter up from daycare and head to a family dinner and she felt rushed to finish on time when she was late to begin with. The day of the wedding I feel like there was a personality difference with one of my bridesmaids and do not feel she was treated equally and had comments from others that you could cut the tension with a knife, not a feeling you want to have on your wedding day. On the good side my hair an makeup looked good. so if you can ignore everything going on around you and just get your pretty on I would recommend her otherwise maybe find someone you have more a comfort level with.

arrel curls schellac-ed to their heads, and it was the best decision I made. With the preliminary appointment a month ahead of time, Leslie gave me great advice on my skin care, which helped my skin look worlds improved by my wedding day. She also advised me extensively at that prelim appointment on styling around my dress, jewelry, and hairpiece so that I had time to make good final decisions. On the day of, she did an amazing job of managing people, ranging from attendants and mothers to the photographer during after-ceremony pictures-all of which helped keep me as relaxed as possible! I loved how I looked-it was what I wanted and asked for, and it looked unique and suited to me. I think the best complement I received was when I emailed a snapshot from the wedding to an old friend in Boston, who used to work at several big television shows in NYC, and she commented on how amazingly beautiful my styling was, including my make-up, hair, dress, jewelry and shoes! Several other people commented on what a relaxed and smiling bride I was, and I credit Leslie with making me feel beautiful on the outside but also keeping me relaxed on the inside, which made everything come together. Worth every single penny to anyone looking beyond the cookie cutter!!!

o incredibly comfortable with her. She was very attentive, caring and extremely helpful from beginning to end. I recommend her, 100%!

ay. She uses quality, healthy products and chose the makeup look and a hairstyle that were beautiful but fit my personality to a tee! The afterstyling was a huge help in that she helped me with posture, angles, and most importantly, made us laugh! I felt more beautiful that I ever dreamed possible! If I could give Leslie 100 stars, I would!

easure to work with. She stayed after the wedding, through the photos and was a great help! I would highly recommend her!!!
