    I am SO GLAD that I chose Crystal and her crew, they are simply THE BEST!!! For my hair trial Crystal did a total of 3 hairstyles (!!) for me. The first two were two updos, and the third was a half up half down style. I thought we would just do the one hairstyle and that would be it, but Crystal was the one who suggested we take my hair down from the updo for my bridal shower. Instead of putting it down fully she did half up half down so I could see this style, as I was fluctuating between doing an updo or half up half down. I LOVED the updo she did, and the half up half down came out beautiful was well. For my makeup Shonte did a fabulous job and really listened to what I wanted. Everyone was complimenting me so much throughout the day on my hair and makeup, and it lasted 12+ hours! I took pictures earlier in the day and then closer to midnight that night, and everything still held up and looked great! I knew that I had to book them for my wedding day!

    I booked Crystal and Shonte for hair and makeup services for me, my mom, my mother-in-law, and my flower girl. Day of they arrived right on time, and since the other hair and makeup company had started much earlier that morning for my bridesmaids in the living room of the hotel suite, Crystal and Shonte setup in the bedroom. Despite the cramped quarters of their work space they worked efficiently and smoothly. My mom and mother-in-law are minimalists with their everyday makeup, and Shonte made sure to follow their direction on what they were envisioning. Overall their hair and makeup looked stunning, and they were VERY HAPPY with their looks. Crystal did my flower girls hair (10 years old), and also did an awesome job. For my hair and makeup, all I can say is WOW. It was everything I've ever hoped for, and I was so so so pleased with how I looked. Crystal and Shonte were a dream to work with, and I highly recommend them! Thank you Crystal and Shonte!!!

    Crystal and her team did a fantastic job - everyone looked and felt beautiful, and I was so happy with my hair and makeup with the wedding and reception. I had a traditional Indian wedding, and I could tell Crystal did her homework in terms of helping me create a hairstyle that would hold the weight of my chunni. She was attentive, listened to me, and was knowledgeable about what would work in front of the camera. Her makeup artist, Shonte, was also wonderful and did an amazing job with makeup. I had nothing but positive experiences with Crystal from the time I first spoke with her on the phone. I highly recommend her services.

    Wow! Crystal is talented and so professional! We had 9 people needing hair and makeup, and she brought in 2 assistants and got us all ready according to schedule. As the bride, I only had a Pinterest board full of various ideas...she came over for the trial and didn't leave until I was happy. She was always ontime, patient, and very professional. She was super responsive anytime I'd e-mail her. I cannot say enough about Crystal and her team. I loved how everyone's hair and makeup turned out -- thank you Crystal!!!

    I first learned of Crystal Razor when they did hair and makeup for a wedding I was a bridesmaid in. I loved everything about them and knew immediately I wanted to book. Crystal Razor was unbelievably talented, professional, reliable, and most importantly personable. Crystal at her team were very responsive throughout the process. Crystal was flexible, and even accommodated my mother who kept changing her mind about getting her hair done. Crystal and a makeup artist came to my house for a hair and make-up trial. It came out exactly as I wanted. Prices are fair, with the same prices as many competitors in the area. On the day of the wedding, they arrived exactly when they said they would. We ended up finishing ahead of schedule, which was shocking for me. As a bride, you expect hair and makeup to run over. I must say I felt and looked beautiful on my wedding day all due to Crystal and her team of talented beauticians. I received so many compliments on my hair and makeup all night.

    Crystal did a fantastic job with my and my wedding party's hair and make up, and was extremely helpful and professional when I wasn't entirely sure what I was looking for. She knew exactly how to make us look for our outdoor wedding, and made us look fantastic the entire day. I would definitely hire her again, and recommend her!

    Crystal did a phenomenal job of making me look both like myself and better than myself (I'm both very pale and have freckles, so this was no easy feat!). And she's now gotten me hooked on false eyelashes…she's created a monster! :) She and her assistant Deanna made my entire wedding party look absolutely stunning!

    Crystal Razor has the patience of God! The professionalism and flexibility that she displayed during the makeup trial and wedding while dealing with my high maintenance and at times difficult mother was exceptional. Crystal and her assistant answered all of my mother's questions with such grace and skillfully incorporated her suggestions into the execution of her hair and makeup. In addition to her professionalism, she and her assistant are incredibly talented beauticians. They are able to quickly look at a picture and provide the same exact desired look. They showed up on time for both the trial and wedding and worked efficiently and swiftly to ensure that we were on time for our ceremony. My hair and makeup stayed put the entire wedding despite the weather and all of the dancing that took place that night. All of my bridesmaids looked absolutely gorgeous and I received so many compliments about my own hair and makeup throughout the night. Crystal Razor was a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her!

    Crystal and her team did a beautiful job for my wedding day hair and make-up. Crystal took such great care of me, my bridesmaids, and my mom. We felt and looked amazing. Crystal was on time and prepared for my early morning hair and makeup. She arrived bright and early at our hotel ready to go. She and her team listened to each of our requests and did an amazing job making our vision come true. I truly appreciate being able to work with Crystal and would highly recommend A Radiant You!

    Crystal Was wonderful. She was on time, she was able to listen to what I wanted my hair and makeup to look like and did exactly that. She was also able to do 2 more people at the last minute and their hair and makeup came out beautiful. My hair and makeup lasted all night without one touch up. I would definitely recommend her to all my friends. I never felt so beautiful!!!!!

    Crystal and her fellow artists made looking beautiful easy. She had great ideas about hair and makeup, was flexible and responsible, and didn't mind driving to the middle of nowhere several times until I could make up my mind. Her work was flawless and stayed in place all night, through hours of crazy dancing! She placed each piece of hair so perfectly that I never even felt her working on my hair. And she was pleasant and fun, calming my pre-wedding jitters. I highly recommend her.

    I was referred to Crystal Razor through my venue and couldn't be happier that they were there for hair and makeup at my wedding!

    We had 10 bridal party and family members doing hair and makeup, each one with a different hairstyle. The entire team was so creative and able to work with the ladies to make their hair and makeup perfect! Everyone looked flawless and gorgeous and stayed that way throughout the entire wedding! I seriously felt so beautiful, but still looked like myself, which is another thing I loved about Crystal Razor and the whole team. Everyone who had their hair and makeup done received countless compliments from our guests and it's no wonder why-everyone looked AMAZING!!

    I did two trials with Crystal after I somewhat switched up my hairstyle 2 weeks before the wedding. Crystal was completely accommodating and quickly came over to style my hair for the second time. Both times she was so helpful and knew exactly what would look good on me. Even the makeup artist, Kana, knew exactly what would look good on everyone!

    All the women who came to do our hair and makeup were so wonderful and personable! We had a great time with all of them! I can't wait until I have another event where I get to use them again! Thank you Crystal, Gina and Kana!!

    This beautician was nothing short of amazing. She did a great job and worked hard when we arrived late back at the house. I would recommend her in a heartbeat.

    Her hairstyles were perfect, and she listened to any and all concerns. The make up was fabulous as well! I recommend this team..excellent work for a reasonable price.

    I can't recommend Crystal enough! She did hair and makeup for my two aunts, mother, mother-in-law, and two bridesmaids. She did such a great job on everyone! I have to admit I was a little worried when she said it would just be her and an assistant, but not only did everyone look amazing, she finished with time left over! Crystal traveled to the beach where I was having the wedding and she showed up early and well-prepared. She is so professional, she knew exactly what to do. She was also very responsive throughout the entire process. I would get an email back from her almost immediately after sending, she's amazing!

    She gave me exactly what I wanted for my wedding day, and she was very patient during my trial when I kept changing my mind. She was so fun and such a pleasure to work with. She was also much more affordable than any other stylist I looked at. I also loved that she's willing and able to do edgier looks since I didn't want anything classic (which she of course can do!). I highly recommend her!

    Crystal was amazing! I got married outside in 90 degree heat. It was intensely hot and humid. Even in this weather my hair and makeup looked fantastic for the entire event. My bridesmaids looked amazing. The best part was that each girl had a style that was tailored to her. Crystal was so fun to work with. She was laughing with us the whole morning. I received so many compliments on my hair and make up - I owe it all to Crystal!

    Crystal (and her assistant Shantay) did a beautiful job with my (and my bridal party's) wedding hair and makeup. I met with Crystal for two trials leading up to the wedding and changed my mind about the hair-do and headband several times. She was so flexible and patient, and helped give me suggestions of what looked good on me. The attention to detail was spectacular and we all felt so beautiful on the day of the wedding. Crystal and Shantay came right to our venue and spent several hours with all of us in the bridal suite. They were on time and brought everything needed to make us look stunning. I decided to use temporary eyelash and hair extensions and Crystal made them look so natural on me! No one would have been able to tell if I didnt spill the secret with a few close friends! After hair and makeup was done I took pictures outside in the freezing cold and very gusty wind. My hair and makeup held up beautifully and when I came in from outside it looked as if I just had the makeup applied! Amazing! Thank you so much to Crystal and Shantay for making us all look and feel beautiful! I highly recommend A Radiant You!

    Crystal and her assistant came to my house in the morning for my Sunday wedding. They arrived early to set up their mobile salon and started on time. They made the morning effortless, allowing me, my bridesmaids, and my mom to relax and enjoy. Their work was stunning--I cannot begin to describe how many wonderful comments I received all throughout that evening and for days afterward! I can say, with confidence, that I looked my most beautiful in my whole life on that day and it's all thanks to Crystal! As for the beforehand, Crystal was easy to get in contact with and was checking in with me all along the way. The trial hair and makeup also went fabulously!! I couldn't have wished for a better stylist to be making me and my bridal party all beautiful, while allowing us the comfort of my own home, and the relaxation that came with her, too!

    I can not express how wonderful Crystal was to work with on and before my wedding day!

    Crystal was very clear with the fees and techniques she offered. I showed her a hair style which three others stylists said they werent sure they could do. We tried it during my trail and one part of it did not work. She was able to work it out to make sure the look I wanted had the same affect and sure enough, it was perfect. She also convinced me in my trial to just "try" eyelashes which I was totally against. Now, I cant wait to have an event I can wear them again! This was my first go at airbrushed makeup. I am so glad I went that route because it stayed on all night. Im so glad Crystal provided that option.

    When my photographer decided to move up our pictures by 3 hours, she immediately reworked hers and my wedding parties schedules to make it work.

    Further, on my wedding day I was an emotional mess due to my beach wedding being moved inside due to rain and having a million people around me all day. During my trial, I told Crystal if I am acting like a Bridezilla, tell me to chill. About half way through...that is exactly what happened. She was finishing my hair and calmed me down so effortlessly (or so it felt to me!).

    Whats more - My hair did not budge after 4 hours of dancing and 3 hours on the beach after. Maybe it was me being paranoid and asking her like 5 times to make sure it was super tight! Ha Again, I was so impressed I took pictures of my hair to send Crystal at the end of the night.

    Without hesitation, I recommend Crystal and her team. If the situation ever arises to be able to hire her again, I will without a doubt!

    Crystal was FANTASTIC! Whenever I'd contact her she'd respond ASAP, her pricing was incredibly affordable compared to the competition, and she was so friendly! Day of my wedding, she and her assistant did hair for about 7ppl and, aside from the bride of course!! :) , each girl felt like they were the most important person being taken care of! Everyone looked beautiful and Crystal's timing was spot on! I got to see her again when she did my friend's wedding about a month after mine and once again...EVERYONE looked FAB!! LOVED CRYSTAL...highly recommended!!

    Crystal gave me EXACTLY what I was looking for! I contacted Crystal to set up a trial, she instantly responded and we continuously kept in touch! She was on time, even a little early and did numerous hair stlyes until I was happy! Crystal was also much more reasonable then what other stylists were asking for! The day of the wedding she was on time and captured exactly what I wanted for each girl! My hair was one of the most important things for me and I was so nervous that it wouldn't come out like I envisioned, but Crystal was PERFECT and did exactly what was done at the trial. I couldn't be happier with the choice I made, she will NOT let you down!!

    Crystal did a wonderful job. She was on time and well prepared for whatever myself and the wedding party wanted. My wedding party did not have an idea of how they wanted their hair for the day until that morning. They showed crystal a picture and she matched it. Everyone was talking about our hair and makeup all throughout the wedding. It was also great to have her come to the hotel room seeing that I had a 10 am ceremony and no salon would have been open. Crystal made what would have been a hectic morning very easy and enjoyable!
