Connie was punctual and fully prepared to perform her job with excellence. She had a high makeup chair with all the comfort along with all the essentials for any kind of hair and makeup one could desire. She had a clear understanding of what was required to achieve a stunning outcome.

As someone who rarely wears makeup, I was completely clueless when she inquired about the desired look. However, I was hoping for a natural appearance, and she exceeded my expectations! Both my makeup and hair were flawless, lasting throughout the entire day and night.

Connie is truly exceptional! Her expertise and professionalism were greatly appreciated, and she made me feel beautiful by working closely with me.

Additionally, she is incredibly kind. I wholeheartedly endorse Connie and highly recommend her services.

Connie is a talented makeup artist and hair stylist! She provided services for my wedding in 2022 covering bride, groom and their moms, totally 4 person’s makeup and hairs. She worked efficiently and effectively on handling that among different people/preferences/styles. She has great professional techniques and variety of products from luxury brands, which made the process reassuring and enjoyable. Connie also familiar and experience with Asian makeup and able to communicate in Chinese, which is a big plus for someone who is looking for these criteria. I highly recommend Connie!

Connie of Face + Crown did my makeup for my wedding and it looked incredible. Honestly, I have never looked that good in my life and I probably never will again without Connie's assistance. It was a huge relief to find someone who was adept at working with South Asians and intuitively knew what colors and products would work for me. I also appreciated that she tailored the makeup to the wedding venue and photographers, so that I could have the best possible pictures. Unlike most makeup artists, Connie also disinfected the makeup and brushes, which probably explains why this is the first time I've gotten professional makeup done and not broken out the next day. Connie was also super nice and responsive and happy to provide general hair and makeup tips and helped keep me calm and happy right before my wedding ceremony.

Connie did the hair and makeup for my fiance, three bridesmaids, and two mothers. She was absolutely professional and amazing! Connie gave us skin and hair preparation tips. On the day, she was well prepared and arrived at the getting-ready place 20 minutes earlier. She was very concentrated and delivered six people's services efficiently, and all looked beautiful! Connie did my bridesmaids' hair with cute braids, which matched my hairstyle! Communicating with Connie was always easy, and she was very responsive responding to emails. I really enjoyed working with her, so highly recommended!

In this town, more often then not you get what you pay for. I was worried about the cost of Connie's services, but i felt the money would be well spent for piece of the mind that the end result would be amazing. I wanted to look like the best version of myself on my wedding day, not a glamazon with make-up caked on. Connie achieved my desired look and so much more with limited guidance from me. I felt beautiful all day and my bridal party looked amazing as well. Connie was also a wonderfully calming presence during the wedding day. Her relaxed nature was a gift as i got ready for the wedding. Additionally, she handled my mother, a challenge to work with and who was very concerned about her look, amazingly. My mom looked great and Connie showed no signs of struggling to handle her. Finally, unfortunately one of Connie's assistants had to cancel on her the night before the wedding. Connie was able to resolve the problem with no inconvenience to me or my bridal party and she put in the extra time herself to make sure we were all gorgeous and ready on time.

Amazing vendor. Connie worked with the images I sent her to customize the look I liked to my own face and skin/hair type. She even came to my house to tryout the look. On the day of, she did the hair and makeup for my two bridesmaids, myself, my mom, and my mother-in-law. Everyone got to choose their own hair and makeup style and got the same customized treatment. She even stayed throughout the event to help the photographer adjust my dress for pictures and to keep my makeup and hair pristine. The look lasted long past the event and I felt like a proper princess (and looked like one!) on my wedding day. If I ever get an excuse to do some fancy hair and makeup again, I am definitely calling Connie.

Connie is such a professional and her passion for hair and makeup is clearly evident from the second you step foot into her home office. I was blown away by her attention to detail and truly appreciated the time she spent getting to know me and my individual features. I have never felt comfortable in a full face of makeup due to my asian/non-caucasian features and somehow Connie was able to highlight everything I like about myself while minimizing the things I don't feel comfortable with. I had to cancel my wedding due to the Covid-19 pandemic and Connie was so gracious and understanding, unlike some of my other vendors. She's a great person both professionally and personally and I would have loved to use her services on my wedding day.
