    Amazing service, unbeatable price

    Amazing service! Was able to get bride, 7 bridesmaids, officiant (SIL), and 2 moms HMU done with 3 stylists in 5hrs. Even offered a discount for the large group. The stylists were all so friendly and we looked amazing!! And the price was unbeatable compared to other bay area companies. Would highly recommend to any bay area bride! My bridesmaids are still raving about how good their HMU looked at the end of the night :)

    Wow pretty!

    Jira did my hair & make-up for my pre-wedding photos & on my wedding day. I have short hair and was so happy that she was able to be creative with the hair accessories creating a tiara effect with the pearl silver vine wrapped in my hair. The make-up for both days were beautifully done!
    I was so anxious leading up to my day & Jira made me feel so comfortable. I completely turned myself over to her. She did not disappointment!
    Highly recommend Jira for your wedding and all of your special occasions!

    Wonderful!

    Jira is very friendly and professional! She was super prompt with emails, appointments, and was on time (if not early) for the big day! She did such a fantastic job with my hair and makeup and I can't thank her enough!! She and Anna worked with my bridesmaids and they all looked amazing also! We all got many, many compliments. Wowpretty was also able to schedule me with limited notice after I had a negative experience with a previous stylist. I recommend them to everyone! Thank you!!

    WOWPRETTY Makeup and Hair Agency's reply:

    Thank you for the review, Kristen. We are so sorry for the delay. We just saw it. We hope you are having a good holiday coming soon.

    Would highly recommend!

    Jira did my hair and makeup for my wedding this year, and I highly recommend her! She is amazing at Asian makeup and also very attentive to personal preferences. For instance, I was worried about my bangs blowing in the wind, and she helped style and spray them so it wasn't a problem. I had a lot of dance performances during my wedding, and the hair stayed up all night! My makeup also lasted through the day and night really well. On top of all that, Jira is extremely responsive and on top of her email, which makes coordinating logistics very smooth. I'm really happy with my wedding hair and makeup. Thank you so much Jira! :)

    I was glowing!

    I reached out to Jira's team for myself and my mom for my wedding in Santa Cruz. She matched me with one of her stylists, Anna, who came onsite.

    Prior to the wedding, I also did a trial in their Burlingame location and Jira totally nailed the hair and makeup look I wanted! It was incredible!

    Back to the wedding - Anna arrived on time at 9am. She started with my mom who was indecisive about what she wanted - Anna quickly was able to narrow it down and produced a beautiful updo with natural makeup - my mom was so pleased.

    Then came my turn - we had great conversations during the whole process! She was so easy to work with and although it "felt" like a lot of makeup (I never do foundation etc personally) it came out looking so natural, clean and pretty, and also didn't feel heavy at all. Airbrush makeup is wonderful. I was legitimately GLOWING on my big day and every picture came out perfectly.

    I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful team. Booking was easy and scheduling the trial was extremely flexible. If you want to look your absolute best self (wedding or any other event) you have to choose Wowpretty!

    Love you. thx so much for your email. I will pass this review to Anna. ;-). You are awesome. see you at the salon soooooon

    What can I say!? Everyone loves Wowpretty Makeup & Hair and they are AMAZING! Our wedding planner (A Monique Affair) put us in touch with Wowpretty because they have won all of these amazing awards over the years and really know how to pamper you for your wedding. My fiance and I wanted to make sure that our moms had a great hair and makeup artist, as they were coming in from out of town and wouldn't have their usual stylists available. Ask for Anna - she's amazing! She arrived at our house 10 minutes early and got all setup to take care of our family without any issue. Our moms got so many compliments throughout the wedding and reception, and being able to have your hair and makeup done at home without having to make it down to the studio is just a treat. Oh, and Wowpretty has a few Mandarin speaking artists on staff if your parents are more comfortable - just ask! They were very responsive by both email and phone. Oh, and they do book up fast so I'd call at least a month in advance.

    Jira is worth every penny plus more. I am so glad I found Jira one week before my wedding, after very disappointing trial with someone else. I did a trial with Jira and as soon as she started working on me, I knew I could trust her. She was so meticulous with everything. My skin was flawless! My eyes were beautiful. Everything was perfect.
    The most important thing to note is the longevity of the makeup, which is very important for wedding day. I felt beautiful after she worked on me and after 10 hours (2 pm to midnight), the make up is still perfect. I felt really sad taking the makeup off at the end of the night. I would recommend her service to anyone!

    Can't be THANK YOU enough to Wowpretty Agency, their team is so amazing. They finished my wedding party within 4 hours, total 7 girls Makeup and Hair. Nancy and Yong were our stylists for all my girls. Makeup and hair stay all night long even that day was not a nice day with the rain. Jira is my stylist.

    We will go back to get the hair cut and color done soon with Jira and Victor
    Love.

    Chose Wowpretty, the most reason is closest to my venue and heard from our venues recommendation. We ended up getting makeup and hair done at Jira Couture Salon in burlingame ( their new salon location) along with my 5 bridesmaids, 2 mothers makeup and hair. Everyone looked so fab, flawless skin thanks for the airbrush, hair stay all night (even so much wind on the day). I love my 1st hair style and makeup but I love even more my evening look. we love everything about this company, clean blushes (salon), reasonable price, good customer services, respond my email fast.

    Can't thank you enough to WOWPRETTY TEAM. One the most important to make my dream come true, is Jira of Wowpretty. I met Jira 10 years ago for my 1st wedding in Oakland.
    10 years after I never thought I would meet her and her team again. Thank you facebook to let us connect. Why this company is so good?
    1. So many stylists working there different rates, that you can choose of. I had a tight budget but I chose Jira.
    2. They do hair cut and color as well at their new location. How convenient is?
    4. They has a VDO team as well " San Francisco Videos" and photographer.
    5.This is my 2nd wedding, I didn't want to spend money Jira helped me and gave me the best deal.
    6. I have full time job but Jira helped me for my wedding planning. It was so helpful. I spent 10K for my wedding and I got everything.
    I m already booked with Jira to get 101 makeup lesson with Jira. Thank you to this company again!!!!!!

    It was my wedding last Sat, the Nov 21st, 2015. We had a small wedding only 200 people but It won't have enough to thank you so much to Jira and her team Sooyeon to fit in our budget and made Our Dream Come True. After trying out endless bridal make up trials that left me unhappy, yes I was super picky, I was starting to get discouraged. Luckily, I met Jira team on Yelp and wedding wire. Their team did an amazing job and i would highly recommend this team to all my friends and family. no matter the occasion. They is super cool, easy to work with, professional, spend time all the details and all my girls.

    This review for Jira, Sooyeon, Yoong.
    My wedding was St Regis hotel in SF, I hired Wow Pretty for my m&h and 7 bridesmaids. They arrived 15 min before the timeline for setting up the area.
    Jira has so many kills, she knew everything, stress free. She wrote all details down on paper my trial day but She did the same but better. Yoong took care of my girls makeup, everyone looked flawless, glowing. Sooyeon was hair stylist, she is good blow dry all hair dos. After wedding I went back to Jira (salon) to cut my hair short and darker color, love it. vivine -

    I was the most nervous about makeup and hair on my wedding day. The story, I booked one makeup artist, she took my money and did a trial but 2 weeks before the day, She just gone. I found Jira salon from 2 of my girl friends used her services. I booked Jira w/o a trial right away after I saw her workes. I was so worry but the day turned out so relaxing.
    Jira was the best arrived one hour before, I needed her extra time because I didn't have a trial. She finished the look that I wanted with 2 hours. I didn't need to say anything. She always said " Yes " to you but " No" when she had a best reason. Without her, I won't be the beautiful bride in my life ever. I owe her so much. Started writing her reviews all over the place.

    Jira did an amazing job for makeup and hair for a photoshoot! The makeup was fresh and natural, felt beautiful! Fast response with calls and emails, easy and fun to work with! Wish I was able to use her for my wedding day, but as my wedding was a destination wedding in Maui, was not able to fly her out. Wish I did! Thank you, will come back again!

    My stylist didn't show up on my wedding day. Last min, I called this company. They had 3 stylists for my wedding.

    Thanks god! And thanks wedding wire. I found wowpretty at 10am this site. Jira picked up the phone. She was on her way to SF for a wedding.

    Right after 10 min. Jira called me back and she said, She will bring 3 girls to take care of my 5 bms and myself. My tear came out and I m owe her so much.

    On my wedding day, Those stylists were professional. I love then forever. They have so much skills, stuffs clean, wash thier hands before touching my face. They have 4 big suitcases, everything inside. You don't need to do anything just enjoy your special day.

    Can you imagine, if your makeup gone w/o telling you and you get married that day.

    After I came back from my honeymoon I came back to meet Jira and her salon. I took all girls for dinner. Not only just how nice they are but they also are lovely person and positive. I made so many fiends after my wedding special Jira.

    I went to Jira make class this Oct, 2 hours 101 with her for 2 hours , color and cut. Love all that... I also love lily, she is a nail girl. Jira Couture Salon is super clean.

    I have my 3 G friends gerting married 2016. I told them about this company. Thier prices are a liitle over my budget but it s worth it. I know I m married only one time. It is good investment.

    Found Wowpretty from Yelp, Wedding Wire. Project Wedding, Style me Pretty, The Knot and all wedding sites. This company has so many good reviews all over the places.

    We got 5 stylists to take care of my wife, 13 girls our family for our special day. Jira is super fun person, easy to work with, professional, quick with respond emails.

    3 days before our wedding day, We went to Jira Couture Salon. Such a beautiful salon. It's clean, easy parking, good staffs, one stop beauty shop.
    Jira gave me a 1st hair cut and a cut, color, wedding makeup trial for my wife. Also my wife and our families got nails done there but late in the after noon the same day.

    I was married on 2/14/15, found this company online and after speaking with several stylists I decided to choose them. $700 more than my budget but it was worth it.

    I want to thank you the most very helpful, was Jira, who took care and respond all fast emails but she also were there for me whenever I needed. My first time got married, so do you? I didn't know anything and what happend on the day
    But Jira spent her time share her experience and gave me such so many ideas, where to got veil, hair styles, makeup, groom hair cut. My hair color, flower in the day color and hair pins. Jira also cut my hair and color and her girl did my nails, her mane s Lily. I has a a small wedding only 175 guesses.

    Jira also recommended me a good team for my tight budget last min VDO team " san francisco vedios" base in bay area as well. Jira was so beyond amazing and so easy to work with. As a new bride I had so many questions and she would respond so quickly to me through emails.

    During my trial we tried 4 different hairstyles and Jira were all so good I had a hard time choosing but ending up picking one and was so happy with it! I got so many compliments on my hair and all my 5 bridesmaids absolutely loved their stylists. Jira had 3 assistants on my wedding day since I had so many ladies. 3 of my girls were so OMG picky but they nailed it.

    Last month I heard my 2 friends, are going to get married they were my birdmaids on my wedding but the they already booked Jira team /company already. Yes they are good. It s worth it.

    A few year ago my sister had Jira did her makeup and hair for her wedding. I was very impressed on her work. She has done a marvelous job. I always wanted to learn how to makeup that way she makeup for the brides so I decided taking a makeup class with Jira last month. Every day now I use Jira's makeup technique and Jira Couture products day and night. I always receive compliment from my associates and friends

    Thank you very much Jira.
