    Stunning hair and makeup!

    I fell in love with Christine's work as a MOH for my best friend's wedding. I knew I had to have her and her team do my wedding hair & makeup. The moment I booked my venue, I went home and immediately requested Christine, despite it being almost a year and a half in advance.
    I absolutely loved my bridal look and my bridesmaids couldn't stop talking about how amazing their hair and makeup was even though they were wary beforehand because of bad wedding makeup experiences in the past. It's hard to find an artist that specializes in Asian American features and hair. We loved the little touch up kits she provides as well, and it came in handy multiple times. I really can't recommend Christine enough!

    Amazing Team!

    Christine & her team were amazing to work with. We trusted Christine & her team with our wedding day. I knew they would kill it & didn't even do a trial!

    Working with Christine was a dream!

    You MUST hire Christine and her team! From my trial to the final touches on my wedding day, Christine and her team were so professional, attentive, and charismatic. They really made everyone’s vision come to life and ensured that it complemented everyone’s features, skin tone, and color scheme. I received SO many compliments on the Hollywood waves look that my stylist Dom perfectly styled. Additionally, my makeup was absolutely gorgeous and lasted 12+ hours (despite the many happy tears and tons of dancing into the late evening). I cannot recommend Christine and her team enough. Whenever I had a question or change, she responded in a timely manner with great advice. The day of her team was prompt upon arrival and we even stayed ahead of schedule with 9 individuals getting hair and make-up done. Their calming presence and attention to detail helped me feel confident and ready for the wonderful day ahead!

    The best!

    Christine's work is true artistry! I love that the makeup felt so lightweight even though it was actually a lot. I cried a few times during the wedding, and yet my makeup still stayed, and that should speak volume.

    After Dominique did my hair, I literally told her that she should've taken a before and after pix to show what an amazing job she did with my hair.

    Overall, it was a wonderful experience working with Christine and her team. They're very professional and will do what ever it takes to make you look beautiful for your big day.

    Beautiful make up - highly recommend!

    Christine is very talented, professional, kind, responsive, and punctual. Her studio was clean and comfortable. She did a beautiful job on my makeup and hair! I highly recommend her!

    She brought life to my special day 💫

    Christine is very friendly, accommodating and kind. Indeed, she is professional but also knows how to build a connection with a client. Everybody loved my make up during the wedding, as much as I adored it! She definitely brought life to my special day and look forward to connecting with her again soon!

    I recommend availing her air brush make up! It lasts the whole day and you wouldn’t have to worry much with retouching (depending on skin type I guess) but for me, it worked perfectly!

    Wedding Hair & Makeup

    I absolutely loved working with Christine and her team (shout out to Dominique and Alicia). Christine did amazing with my makeup and it lasted all night and I have oily combination skin. I only had to touch up my lipstick. My bridesmaids and mom loved their makeup and hair as well. Christine and her team were so easy to work with. They were very accommodating and ensured it was a stress-free event. They made us feel so comfortable. So, if you get the chance I would book with her and her team. You can tell she's been in this industry for a while with her knowledge and how organized she is. I have been recommending her to friends and family already. Thank you again to Christine, Dominique, and Alicia!

    The CTX3 team are true artists.

    Christine and Dominique made me, and all of the ladies, feel so special and we looked like the absolute best versions of ourselves on the day of my wedding. They both took such care in truly listing to what the ladies envisioned for their looks and their skills took all of our breath away. There isn't a team who could have been more on point and I am forever grateful to have had the honor of having them be a part of such a special moment in my life.

    Highly recommend!!

    Christine and her team are amazing! It was very important to me that I hired a MUA who knew how to do eyeshadow for Asian features. Christine's make up technique is flawless and the results were beautiful! My makeup did not budge at all despite all of my happy tears. Christine and her team are very friendly, well prepared, clean, and professional. It was such a pleasure working with her and everything was so worth it. Highly recommend!!!

    Wedding Hair and Make up

    Christine and Dominque were absolutely phenomenal! I was the bride and I hired Christine and her team for my glam squad for my special day. Both ladies work quick and knocked it out of the park with the looks that I wanted. I instantly cried when I saw my hair. My bridesmaids, Mom & Mother in law looked stunning. I would highly recommend Christine and her team for your special event. These ladies were worth every penny. I highly recommend on getting a glam squad so you can enjoy your wedding morning/ day stress free.

    10/10 would reccomend!

    I am so happy I got to work with Christine and Eddie. They are amazing, and I would 10/10 recommend them both to all the future brides out there. Christine was very responsive and I felt heard with every idea I had in mind. I also threw in a few changes last minute, and she was so flexible and did everything she could to make my vision happen. My every day make up is very minimal, so I really appreciated that Christine created a natural look for me that made me feel both comfortable and beautiful. I barely needed to touch up, since the make up stayed on all day. It also looked great in photos. Can't thank Christine and her team enough. Christine is very talented in her craft, and you can tell she really loves what she does. If you're thinking about booking her, act quick because she gets booked fast! That is how amazing she is.

    Simply Stunning Makeup!

    I'm incredibly grateful to Christine for her exceptional makeup artistry on our wedding day. She made us my family and bridesmaids feel absolutely stunning. Christine was not only a pleasure to work with but also a true professional. She was quick to respond to any emails and was extremely accommodating to a few last-minute requests. She listened to our preferences and delivered makeup that was both flawless and long-lasting. If you want to feel your best and look amazing on your special day, I wholeheartedly recommend Christine. Thank you for making our day even more special!

    BEST Hair and Makeup Artist Ever!

    I had the most amazing experience working with Christine and her team for my wedding hair and makeup for our special day. Their talent and expertise were absolutely outstanding, and I cannot recommend them enough.

    From the moment I first met them, I knew I was in good hands. They took the time to understand my vision and worked closely with me to create the perfect hair and makeup look for my wedding day. Their attention to detail and ability to bring my ideas to life exceeded all my expectations.

    Not only were they incredibly skilled in their craft, but they were also a joy to work with. They made me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process, and their positive energy and professionalism were truly remarkable.

    I came to Christine’s studio for my rehearsal dinner hair and makeup, and she nailed it! I was wearing a traditional Vietnamese khanh dong and she was able to incorporate it flawlessly with the look I wanted.

    On the day of the wedding, they arrived early and fully prepared. They flawlessly executed the hair and makeup looks for me and my bridal party, ensuring that everyone felt and looked their absolute best. They were attentive to each individual's preferences and made sure that everyone felt comfortable and confident. Even my mom, a super tough critic, absolutely loved her look.

    The final result was absolutely stunning. The hair and makeup stayed flawless throughout the entire day and night, and I received countless compliments from guests. Christine and her team’s ability to enhance my natural features while still making me feel like the best version of myself was truly remarkable.

    I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with such an incredible wedding hair and makeup artist. They played an integral role in making my wedding day even more special and memorable. I would highly recommend their services to any bride-to-be looking for a talented and professional artist to bring their bridal vision to life.

    Thank you so much for your exceptional work and for making me feel like a true bride on my wedding day!!!

    Thank you Christine!!

    I cannot express enough how thankful I feel to have had Christine and her team take care of us on my wedding day. Christine was the only wedding vendor I knew I wanted to work with, even before I was engaged, and she absolutely exceeded all expectations.

    We booked Christine and her team to take care of hair and makeup for a total of nine people, including six bridesmaids, two mothers, and myself. The day unfolded so smoothly, and the level of organization was impeccable. Christine and her team made everyone feel relaxed and pampered, which was exactly what we needed!

    For any significant event in my future, I will be booking Christine for makeup without hesitation. Thank you, Christine, for making our special day truly unforgettable, and for making me feel like the most beautiful version of myself!

    Absolutely gorgeous work!

    Christine and her team were absolutely professional, personable, and timely with their communication and work. Christine and her team really paid attention to the look we wanted to go for and brought it to life. I wasn't expecting to cry so much during my wedding (happy tears of course!), but to my surprise, my makeup, lashes and hair looked just as good as when I first got it done! Thank you Christine!

    Best hair & makeup team!

    Christine and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with! I had originally hired Christine to do my wedding makeup and someone else for hair (not from Christine’s team). However, my original hairstylist went MIA after taking my deposit. I reached out to Christine to add hair services later on and, luckily, her senior hairstylists (Dominque & Sara) were available on my wedding day. I can’t thank them enough! Christine gave me her "signature bridal glam” which looked so stunning in person and photographed beautifully! She also takes feedback very well. She listened to what I wanted and gave suggestions on what would look best on my skin tone and eye shape. My hair & makeup looked flawless from 6am til midnight!

    HIGHLY recommend booking one beauty team for both hair & makeup. Your getting-ready timeline will go much smoother I promise! I really believe hair & makeup sets the tone for your wedding day as they are the first vendors you’ll work with in the morning (so if hair & makeup is running late, everything else will run late too). Hire Christine and you won’t regret it!

    Best makeup team! Highly recommend.

    Christine and her team truly delivered on mine, my bridesmaids, and my mom's makeup and hair. I've been in several weddings and I've never actually had any makeup artists and hair stylists stay on track with their timeline. They actually finished early, which is a first! Not only that, they did beautifully on all our makeup, and my mom, who is very picky and has never liked makeup done by anyone else, actually liked her makeup. It's very hard to find artists who know are experts at Asian makeup. My Hollywood waves also stayed curled all night. I never felt pressured for a different look than what I wanted, and Christine definitely delivered! I would recommend them in a heartbeat. Christine even checked back the next day on how everything went with the wedding and my makeup.

    Makeup & Hair

    Christine and her team (Kerry & Jenny) did an amazing job! I had 4 bridesmaids, my mom, mother in law, and daughter done, our timeline was pretty tight the day of but surprisingly they finished all girls right in time for the ceremony! She was one of the first vendors I booked for my wedding and kept me up to date the entire time. Unfortunately I was not able to do a bridal trial because of my schedule but I trusted her and her team and they came through! It’s hard to find a makeup team in my area(Temecula) that can bring out the Asian facial features, I’m so glad she was able to travel! My makeup stayed on the entire wedding + after party that ended around 2 AM, Amazing!! :)

    Christine and her team are INCREDIBLE!!

    Christine and her team are INCREDIBLE!!! I don't typically wear makeup and was a little nervous about full coverage makeup for my wedding, but she made me feel so beautiful and still like myself! The team is incredibly professional and also super talented. Dominique did my hair and was able to get the exact look I was going for (Hollywood waves but a little looser/separated). I would highly recommend doing the trial too. I felt so confident going into my wedding day knowing exactly what my hair and makeup would look like. Plus, we were able to make small tweaks from the trial so that my hair and makeup the day of was absolutely perfect! I would highly recommend Christine and her team for your wedding day! Truly so so talented and professional!

    Chris is amazing

    Christine did an amazing job on my wedding makeup! After another makeup artist had to cancel for my wedding, I searched for a new makeup artist and luckily I found MakeupbyChrisTranx3. She was very quick to respond to my inquiry email. The contract was very well organized and detailed and her terms & conditions were very clear. I scheduled my makeup trial 2 months before my wedding where I met Christine at her studio which is a cute space near Kearny Mesa. She was playing 2000s throwbacks while she did my makeup and she was very easy to talk to. I was nervous about having my makeup done for my wedding because I have freckles and I wasn't sure how a makeup artist would be able to make my skin look without covering up all my freckles. As soon as I sat down Christine asked if I wanted my freckles covered or if I still wanted them to 'peek through' and I'm so glad she asked, she was able to keep my freckles so I still looked like me. I'm not a big makeup wearer and by the time she was finished it barely felt like I had anything on, my face the makeup is that lightweight! Christine also gave great tips for prepping my skin for the wedding day. On the day of the wedding she did the same look as the trial but suggested we go a little bigger with the lashes. She held up a couple of different options for me to see what they'd look like and I'm so happy with the ones we chose. All my bridesmaids and my mom were incredibly happy with their makeup looks also and I couldn't recommend Christine more for your wedding day.

    Flawless Wedding Glam by the Incredibly Talented Christine!

    I had the pleasure of working with Christine who provided makeup services for my wedding, and I can't say enough amazing things about her! From the moment I contacted her, she was incredibly responsive, professional, extremely organized, and easy to communicate with. She listened carefully to my make up ideas, offered suggestions when I needed it, and took the time to understand my vision for my wedding day look. Christine is such a talented make-up artist, and does exceptionally well for hooded and monolid eyes which is difficult to apply eyeshadow on. She also made sure to use high-quality products that lasted throughout the day and night, so I didn't have to worry about touch-ups or smudging and the result was absolutely flawless.

    I had hair services provided by Metz, and she was wonderful and took the time to listen to my hair preferences. She worked with me to create a hairstyle that was exactly what I had envisioned. Throughout the process, she checked in with me to make sure that I was happy with the way things were going and made adjustments as needed, and I loved the way my hair turned out!

    My hair and makeup stayed in place throughout the day and night, and I felt so glamorous. Each bridesmaid was beyond happy with their hair and makeup as well, and they were able to accommodate everyone’s personal style and preferences.

    Christine and Metz are so skilled and talented, and I highly recommend their beauty services!! They go above and beyond to make everyone feel beautiful and I can’t thank them enough!

    Perfect hair & makeup!

    Christine and Dominique did my bridal hair and makeup, along with hair and makeup for 4 of my family members. On my wedding day, they both arrived on time and did a fantastic job! For my hair, I chose to do Hollywood glam waves. I appreciate Christine’s recommendation to add hair extensions. My hair is normally super straight and flat, but Dominique gave my hair volume that I didn’t know was possible… and the waves lasted all day! For my makeup, Christine was familiar with my photographer’s style and had considered that for my makeup. Christine’s techniques and products worked so well! My makeup lasted more than 12 hours, even when some rain fell on my face. I highly recommend Christine and Dominique for their expertise and talent!

    Hair/Makeup artist review

    Christine and her team were absolutely amazing. My entire bridal party was taken care of from glam to hair. The detail and professionalism Christine and her artists work with is so valuable. My girls and I loved our looks. We felt truly pampered and beautiful because of this team!

    Phenomenal makeup artist

    Christine did a phenomenal job for my wedding! She did the makeup for three of my friends and me, and everyone looked fantastic. She was very thoughtful when picking colors and textures for each girl, and took the time to make sure everything looked perfect.

    As a bride, Christine was a joy to work with. She was quick to respond to emails and texts, easy to schedule a makeup trial with, and very organized. She made sure to understand what look I wanted and added her own recommendations. Everything with Christine ran smoothly and on time, which was essentially for a stress-free wedding day.
