to my service. I truly loved chatting with her during my trial and wedding day service. I felt so comfortable and heard regarding my vision! Highly recommend!
I cannot recommend Ella enough! She worked her magic on my wedding day, and I felt absolutely beautiful and flawless from start to finish. Ella gave me the mermaid hair of my dream...
s, and I was blown away by how stunning I looked. Even with the humidity of Waikiki in June, my makeup stayed flawless all day, my face didn’t melt at all, and my eyelashes were intact the entire time! Plus, my naturally curly hair didn’t frizz!!! Which is HUGE for me; she truly knows how to work with different hair types. Beyond her incredible talent, Ella was a calming presence when I was feeling overwhelmed. She really knows how to make a bride feel at ease, which made such a difference on my big day. As someone who tends to be a bit of a nitpicker, I was left speechless by her work—no small feat! If you’re a bride in the Waikiki area, do yourself a favor and hire Ella. You won’t regret it!
Ella did an amazing job on my bridal makeup as well as my bridesmaids and flower girl. She was punctual, professional, kind, organized, and she is immensely talented at what she do...
es. She created a day of schedule for all the makeup looks as well as supplied all makeup in any skin tone and look that myself or my bridesmaids requested. She replicated the look I shared with her flawlessly. I would recommend her to any bride looking for a makeup artist on their wedding day. What a gem!
I had the absolute honor and privilege of having Ella as my hair and makeup artist for my wedding! I was pretty nervous about getting my hair and makeup done after a not-so-ideal t...
rial I did elsewhere, but from the moment Ella walked in, I was completely at home with her, it felt like we’d known each other forever. She was hands down the best vendor I worked with for my wedding.
First off, her work is stunning. If she's the one doing your hair or makeup, you'll be getting compliments all night. But what really stood out was how warm and welcoming she was. Ella made sure I felt super comfortable and really listened to what I wanted, even down to the minor details of my makeup. She has this incredible ability to connect with people and make them feel special.
On my wedding day, Ella went above and beyond. A family friend who’s going through chemo texted us about her hair being a mess. Even though Ella already had a full schedule with 7 or 8 ladies, she told us to bring our aunty over and she’d fix her hair for free. That level of kindness and selflessness made me and my family tear up with gratitude.
Ella helped me get ready for one of the biggest days of my life and also made my mother-in-law feel at ease for her best friend’s funeral. In both situations, she made us feel beautiful and cared for.
If you need a hair and makeup artist, go with Ella. She’s incredibly talented and such a kind-hearted person. You won’t regret it!
Ella was amazing! She asked me so many details about how I wanted to look and feel for each special event. She really has a gift with makeup and with people. She also is very metic...
ulous about making sure the service is hygienic for each client. The biggest compliment I could give her is that she made me feel so confident in my own skin that I was just free to enjoy the occasion. Not only did I enjoy the service, I really enjoyed getting to know her. I highly recommend seeing her for any special event.
Meeting Ella on my wedding day was a breath of fresh air. Instantly, she made me feel at ease, like I was with a trusted friend who just happened to be exceptional at makeup and ha...
irstyling. Her down-to-earth and approachable demeanor set a relaxed and enjoyable tone for the entire experience from the very beginning.
From the moment I met her, Ella had this incredible knack for making me feel instantly at ease, almost like I was catching up with a longtime friend who just happens to be incredible at makeup and hairstyling.
During our session together, she really took the time to listen attentively to what I envisioned for both my makeup and hairstyle. What impressed me most was how she effortlessly balanced offering her expert advice with respecting my preferences—it never felt like she was just going through the motions. Her insights into which products would complement my skin type and bring out the look I wanted were spot on.
Ella's hairstyling skills were equally impressive. She created a hairstyle that perfectly complemented my features and wedding dress, and what amazed me the most was how well it lasted throughout the entire day. My hair stayed beautifully styled from the ceremony through to the evening reception, thanks to Ella's expertise.
Throughout the process, Ella remained completely focused on perfecting every detail of my makeup and hair. It was evident that she takes immense pride in her work and genuinely cares about ensuring her clients feel their absolute best.
By the end of our session, I not only felt beautiful but I also felt incredibly grateful for having spent time with someone who not only understood my vision but also genuinely cared about making me feel comfortable and confident on such an important day. Ella's unique ability to seamlessly blend top-notch skills with a friendly and professional demeanor is truly what sets her apart. She was an irreplaceable part of my wedding day, and I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a talented and caring makeup artist and hairstylist.
While weddings are often nerve-wracking, Ella truly made the day so much easier with her support, professionalism, and kindness. Choosing Ella was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day. Her talent and passion are unmatched, and I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a skilled artist who genuinely cares about making your wedding day as perfect as possible. Thank you, Ella, for making me feel like the most beautiful bride and for being a part of my unforgettable day!
I was an absolute wreck, Ella made me so comfortable and I totally trusted in her for my hair and make up! I’m not a girlie girl and don’t do a lot of makeup! She made me into a to...
tal princess(which I’m not again like that) that I absolutely was in awe, my husband to be as well! She is truly a blessing and a so real rock star! She’s an amazing beautiful lady! I wish I could take her home to do my hair and makeup everyday!
