Meleah is a fantastic stylist and a even better person. We started working together four months prior to our wedding with a trial, where she both showed me what my hair was already...
capable of, as well as giving me instructions for how to make it even better for the wedding. She was extremely responsive, giving immediate feedback when I sent videos from my hairdresser after putting in the layers Meleah requested. The day of, she and her colleague were extremely professional, showing up on time and quickly working through 8 people, getting us all ready on the big day. My hair has never looked better and it's thanks to Meleah. If I had to get married again, I'd pick her for my hair every time.

We took dance lessons from Meleah for our First Dance. Meleah was excellent — patient and thorough. Even though my wife and I had absolutely no experience with foxtrot, she made th...
e learning so easy & fun. I like the way she structured the lessons by slowly building things up from the fundamentals. I thought her way of giving feedback was just right — not overly positive or too harsh. Towards the end, she made us practice backwards from the end of the song to the beginning, and I thought that was a smart touch. Overall, it was such a fun experience to learn from her. Would highly recommend!

I was married in September 2025, and only had about a month to plan my out of state wedding in San Diego. I found Meleah online and it was an absolute blessing.
Prior to accepti...
ng the job, Meleah and I exchanged emails and had a web meeting to discuss my wishes and I sent her photographs of what I was looking for.
Meleah was very up front about costs (which were very reasonable), honest about what would work best with my hair type and length, sent me a professional contract for services, and accepted a very manageable deposit prior to our appointment date.
I requested a last minute change to the appointment venue which Meleah was able to accommodate.
Prior to the appointment, Meleah sent me clear and easy to follow instructions with suggested product to use.
The day of my wedding, Meleah was on time, was very professional and prepared and was extremely fun to work with. She has a great personality, and helped calm my nerves on my big day.
My hair and makeup turned out better than I could have ever hoped for. I highly recommend Meleah's hair and makeup services for any wedding or special occasion.

Bottom line up front: you should go with Meleah & Co for your hair and makeup. You WILL NOT regret it!!
I had thought about doing my own makeup for a bit and I’m glad I didn’t. We ...
did a trial and she was honest with me about what would and wouldn’t look good or would be imprudent on my wedding day. She was right about everything she suggested and said. Her whole team was just phenomenal!! I had multiple nieces 11 years old and under and she selected stylists that just worked amazingly with kiddos. All of my bridesmaids turned out GORGEOUS and we couldn’t have been happier. Besides all of this, I learned a ton from her: from how to prevent oily hair and washing properly to best products and uses of mousse. She was calm and helpful when I didn’t have my hair fully dry after my shower, yet, the morning of the wedding and helped me so we stayed on schedule. She personalized each of our prep based on our hair type and length and communicated exceptionally well. As you can tell by the length of this: I cannot say enough good things about her and her team. She deserves the good reviews she has from others and me. Thank you, Meleah & Co!!!

ng as I do not tend to have the best coordination. But she was very patient and able to adapt her teaching to help me learn. In the end everyone was impressed by our first dance!
Additionally, I wanted a simple/natural makeup look which Maleah achieved perfectly. My hair doesn't hold a curl well but she was able to help me prep my hair so that it held the style all night. My mom was also very happy with her hair/makeup.
All around I had an amazing experience working with Maleah. She was a big factor in helping me feel confident going into my wedding day both for the first dance but also for my hair/makeup look.

here i can find and she worked with diverse group of women in different ethnicities so this made me confident that with her 20+ years of experience she will know how to do hair and makeup for Filipina like me. I love natural, elegant look and she did it. It really makes a difference to have a trial session, highly recommend! She takes lots of notes and by wedding day, I was so in love with how it turned out after taking some notes to improve after the trial session. I changed the hair style too but it was no problem, she pulled it off just by showing her my hair inspo photo. She is super amazing to work with, very responsive, on time, flexible, good with follow ups, have a great team working with her, helps on scheduling a lot and really strategize with you to make it work for wedding timelines. She is truly a hidden gem, plus the price rates are very reasonable compared to other artists out there. I can't recommend her enough, book her for your wedding and even add dance lessons if you're local in SD ( i wish we were so we had first dance lessons!) She also have her own line of makeup and skincare which are so fantastic, i love her lipstick and glow mask. (i got it when she recommended it to help with my scars and facial texture and works like magic, loved it!) Note: i provided my own lashes and the hair accessory :)

k with. She gave specific and personalized instructions for each bridesmaid's hair type, and was keen to bring each gal's vision to life with excellence. She is responsive, organized, kind, compassionate, creative, and a hard worker. I have never loved my hair more than when Meleah did it for both my trial and big day – to say she knows what she is doing is an understatement. She and her team members are simply the best.

I was very happy with the quality of the hair and makeup services Meleah provided. After my trial a few months before the wedding, she followed up and asked for photos, which I rea...
lly appreciated. Using that feedback, she made a few adjustments on the wedding day, and the results were great. My hair and makeup lasted the entire night and looked beautiful in photos. I received lots of compliments and felt confident throughout the day.
That said, there were a few hiccups with the service. Meleah didn’t follow the wedding planner’s parking instructions, which resulted in me having to pay for her parking twice. Additionally, after she packed up, I realized my dupatta hadn’t been placed in my hair. Even though I had mentioned it several times before and on the wedding day, she seemed surprised when I brought it up.
Overall, the quality of her work was excellent, and I’d still recommend her, but a bit more attention to detail on logistics and communication would have made the experience even better.

ow I wanted my hair. She gave me lots of good ideas to prepare for the day, including a plan of exfoilating to ensure my face and neckline looked amazing at my wedding. She has great emails with details on what to expect, and what is needed. The week of the wedding, she sent a reminder of the things that I needed to do, including how much mouse to put into my hair that morning. On the day, she arrived exactly ontime at my friends house, we looked at a few different spots to find the perfect light. She was super flexible and easy going, the best light was in the bedroom, so she spread out a towel and all her makeup on the bed. She made the time fun, and since we'd done the trial, it went quicker than I expected. She was fun, made me feel so beautiful, and my hair ended up being prettier than I thought possible.

We absolutely loved every moment of working with Meleah! She is a true professional and expert at what she does. Extremely responsive, and so detailed and knowledgeable!
I really ...
appreciated the checklist and documents she had ready for everyone getting their hair and makeup done - it saved me so much time and she also communicated directly with each person about their needs and how they should prep!
I was SO nervous about finding someone to work on my hair. It’s extremely curly and thick and every time I’ve had my hair done for a formal event, I always end up redoing it myself, so I don’t trust just anyone to do my hair, especially because I wanted to wear my natural curls for the wedding. I felt immediately comfortable with Meleah. I truly felt like she listened and asked several questions to understand my hair type and its tendencies and my vision for my hairstyle. I cried after our trial because I loved it so much and she made it look gorgeous. I’ve never had an experience like that before with my hair. The day of the wedding it was flawless and I didn’t even give it a second thought the entire day! Her makeup style is so amazing too! I have lots of freckles I didn’t want to cover and wanted to aim for a lighter and natural foundation and she totally nailed it! 15/10 on communication, she asked questions and checked in every step of the way to make sure I was fully satisfied.
My husband and I also did dance lessons with her which were so worth it! I’ve had experience with dancing, but my husband hadn’t and was very nervous. Everyone at the wedding was so excited to see him dancing so smoothly and he felt so confident! Meleah is an excellent teacher! She does it all!
As far as pricing, she is really reasonable too. She is an absolute delight to work with and I’m so glad she was a part of our day!

My hair lasted all night - even after 3 hours of dancing - and my makeup was perfect. I truly felt like a princess on my wedding day and it was in large part to my hair and makeup!
My husband and I also decided to do some first dance lessons in order to feel more comfortable having the spotlight on us and the lessons were so much fun. Meleah did an amazing job teaching us a dance in just 5 lessons and everyone was blown away by our moves. The first dance lessons were definitely a highlight of the wedding planning process and we are both so glad we did it!

Meleah's experience enabled me to be more informed about how to complete the preparation she laid out in an easy to follow, simple, and clear guide for creating my desired look the day-of, and she provided feedback during our in-person hair test day that improved my hair style on the big day. Meleah was very amenable to all my makeup adjustments and preferred products, incorporating them alongside her own to create a look I was comfortable in and that lasted through the day and into the night's celebrations. I highly recommend booking with Meleah if you'd like to feel calm, confident, and look absolutely beautiful on your big day!!

When women think about how they want to look on their wedding, the image of a princess generally comes to mind. Meleah's talent and endless care ensured that I didn't just look lik...
e a princess, but felt like one too.
I had my initial hair and makeup trial with Meleah in December, three months before the wedding. When we met, my hair was dry and difficult to manage, and I truly didn't recall a time in which I had enjoyed wearing in naturally curly.
Within that three month period, Meleah dedicated herself to finding products, techniques, and cuts to help me love and manage my hair - entirely at no additional cost to her! She accompanied me to a hair appointment conducted by another stylist and stayed for the full 2 hours to make sure that it was something we were both happy with at the end.
On the day of the wedding, the hair and makeup appointment was held at our hotel block, and it was so easy, fun, and seamless. Throughout the day, everyone commented on how beautiful my hair and makeup looked. She took something that I was so nervous about leading up to the wedding and made it such a glowing point.
Meleah is truly the best of the best!

I was worried I wouldn't recognize myself in makeup as I don't usually wear it. I wanted a natural, glowy, blushy look with copper and gold tones to match my ethereal dress, and Meleah knocked it out of the park!! I felt just like myself with all my features enhanced. She was very communicative throughout the whole process via email. Her assistant was also awesome working with my bridesmaids the day of. Best of all, both my husband and I had our hair and makeup stay perfectly all night! Even after sweating on the dance floor, our guests said we looked flawless!

Meleah is absolutely wonderful!
I got married a few months ago in July and found her through the Knot App and loved her style for hair and makeup. Meleah is very organized and tho...
ughtful when it comes to your style. Her and her stylists also did hair and makeup for my whole bridal party. Everyone looked amazing!
In addition to hair and makeup, my husband and I also took dance lessons with Meleah. My husband and I were both inexperienced with professional dancing but Meleah was amazing in guiding us as she choreographed a dance to a song my husband and I chose. We nailed the dance at the wedding! 11/10, would recommend going to Meleah for both hair and makeup, and definitely for dance lessons!
Meleah, thank you so much for all of your help. Steven and I appreciate all the time you took for our wedding. Hope to see you again soon for some dance lessons!
-Best Regards, Megan & Steven

Meleah is amazing! I was so nervous about getting my hair and make up done for my wedding but everything went great! Meleah stayed in touch with me before the big day, she sent me ...
amazing instructions and help me with the piece for my hair. I explained to her that I was not a make up person and her magic hands made me feel like a princess. She is really friendly and kind. She did not help me only on my big day but she also gave all kind of tips to deal with my curly hair and products for my face. You will not regret hiring her to have your hair and make up done.

o pictures for my hair / makeup prior and even gave me prep work to ensure my hair and makeup lasted all day and night & it did! She was so wonderful and easy to work with throughout the planning process as well as the day of. All of my family who also did their hair/makeup were really impressed with their work and super satisfied with how they looked. I definitely recommend booking Meleah for your wedding/next big event!

y makeup trial done for my engagement photos and it turned out amazing! I don't wear much makeup working from home, nor do my bridesmaids and she & her team did an incredible job. It looked so natural and we felt stunningly beautiful!!
She did a great job ensuring we were all prepared for the day-of. We sent inspirational makeup & hair photos ahead of time and how we need to prep our hair and skin too.
During my makeup trial, she showed me a picture of the hairstyle I described and one she recently did. It was exactly what I wanted, so I didn't even do a hair trial. And my hair was so gorgeous, I received so many compliments. Our venue was outside on the water during the ceremony and all of our pictures were on the water. I was worried the wind would blow out my curls, but it stayed perfectly curled and in place the entire day!
I would hands down recommend Meleah!

ing and makes sure you are happy. I did a pre-trail with her and booked her on the spot for the wedding day. She took great care of my mom, my bridesmaids and myself. She gave detailed instructions on what to do prior to her arrival which was greatly appreciated. Her and her assistant Constance were beyond amazing. We had great laughs, they were very organized and even ensured to be sensitive to my mom with some of her medical issues. Everyone turned out absolutely beautiful. I loved the added gold glitter to our hair that she did. Really made it pop. I also love that she sells her own makeup (I have already bought a few things from her). I highly recommend her for weddings and any special events.
