Manning is the best hairstylist that I have ever had! She is very professional, very talented and is a lot of fun to work with. All the styles that she created for my wedding entourage was absolutely beautiful! She also did a great job with my hair. She did a beautiful romantic hairstyle and I wanted it to be secure since it was going to be a long day. It lasted all day and I didn't even need to use the touch up kit. If I ever need my hair done again, she is the first one that I would contact. Also, Theresa's company is absolutely wonderful. They are all professional and also a joy to work with. Thank you Theresa and Manning!

Theresa and her team did an amazing job for my mother, bridal party, and of course myself! I loved how my makeup looked and loved even more how it looked in pictures and video. And my hair was awesome! Theresa and her team were on time and really knew how to make me look extra special without piling the makeup on thick. It was very natural which is exactly what I was looking for. Oh, and a few weeks prior to the wedding, when I had my preview session, I went out to dinner with my sister after and random strangers kept complimenting me on my hair and makeup!

Don't let the pricing of Theresa's services scare you. She is priced higher than the other make up artists in the area but she is definitely worth the price! My preview session went extremely well. I was provided 3 different hair styles to choose from and Theresa was very helpful in helping me decide what looked best on me. She made me feel very comfortable and at ease about looking my best for the single most important day of my life thus far. I have had hair and make up done by another make up team for a friend's wedding back in April and all I'm going to say is you get what you pay for. I think the extra money you have to shell out for Theresa and her team is 'insurance' for looking your absolute best in person AND on you wedding pictures. My hair and make up was great during the preview, but how she took care of me on the day of my wedding was beyond perfection. Her work is not overly done up and has a very natural feel, she has the talent to make you more beautiful than you think you can be and still look like yourself! I got sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooo many compliments on my hair and make up on my big day and not to sound full of myself, I thought I looked freaking HOT as a bride. I only had her do my look first thing in the morning and everything still looked pretty much the same at the end of the night. The make up was so pretty that I didn't want to remove it!Theresa and her team was very professional and attentive to our needs and likes. They provided me with the beauty schedule about a week prior to the wedding for review and approval. The team showed up ON TIME, if not a little earlier. They made sure everyone was satisfy with the way they look before they sent us off to the venue. We were right on schedule for our event and everyone was happy. Most importantly we all looked pretty awesome! I would definitely recommend Theresa and her team to all my friends and anyone who is looking and considering The TH team! Thanks again, Theresa for your beautiful work and I look forward to working with you again in the near future! ROCK ON TH team!!!!!!!!!!!

I had Manning do hair and make-up for me and my MOH. I am so happy with how it all turned out. Our hair and make-up lasted all night, even with all the hugs and kisses that we received. I was sure someone would accidentally knock down my side bun while hugging but it stayed put! Manning is so cheerful and positive. I was a nervous wreck before she showed up to my hotel room. Her great attitude and make-up magic helped me feel so much better. She is the sweetest person and totally talented. It can be awkward to have someone sitting so close to your face, working on your make-up for so long but not with Manning. She made me feel at ease and very comfortable. If I won the lottery, I would pay to have her do my make-up and hair every day!

Theresa changed the way I do makeup. I first met Theresa 8 months ago when I was searching for the perfect makeup artist for my intimate courtyard wedding in Santa Barbara. She came highly recommended by a friend who got married 2 years ago at the St. Regis. We hit it off right away and after the trial session, I knew she was the one for me. Her work is very elegant and timeless, which is exactly what I wanted. I did a photo shoot after my trial session and everything came out beautiful. It was just lovely. I fell in love with her work that I decided to take private makeup lessons. After all, a woman needs to look great not just on her wedding day, but also everyday, right? My now-husband compliments on my makeup every time I wear it. It looks natural and makes my eyes pop. I love it. On the big day, Theresa was amazing and my hair & makeup was flawless. My husband's jaw dropped when he first saw me. That truly was a priceless moment. Throughout the whole night, everyone kept telling me how beautiful I looked, including some of my overly-critical relatives (you know the type). The makeup lasted all day (12 hours) and despite a few teary moments, it did not run or smear one bit. All in all, Theresa is a talented artist who goes above and beyond for her brides and I will definitely recommend her to all my friends. Thanks again, Theresa, for making me a beautiful bride and also for teaching me makeup!

Theresa was by far one of the best vendors I worked with. She was professional, talented and made me feel like I was safe in her capable hands. She has an amazing personality and brings it in to every session. I could not have been happier with her techniques and her ability to make me glow. I will definitely use her services again when the occasion arises.

Theresa was great! She was hired as my engagement photo makeup artist and the photos were turned out so beautiful, then I decided to hire her for my big day. She understands my expectations and has a great taste of the fashion. On my wedding day, she and her assistant arrived on time and did a great job. My two moms and I were getting lots of accomplishments. I'll definitely recommend her to my friends.

Every bride-to-be knows that weddings can be VERY expensive... so you need to carefully pick and choose what to spend your money on. Makeup and hair are very important, because you will see it in all your photographs and your guests will remember how beautiful you looked that day. With that said, you must consider Theresa Huang and her carefully trained hair and makeup stylists for the big day. I booked a preview session with her lead artist, Manning - she listened to and acted on all my concerns and preferences, and made great suggestions to suit my bridal gown perfectly. We decided on a specific look during the preview session, which she implemented flawlessly on the day of. She and another artist, Nicole, were also hired to do my bridesmaids' and mom's hair and makeup on the wedding day, and both of them were very professional and fun to work with at the same time. They did a great job as my bridesmaids were very happy as well. Theresa's style is natural beauty - she and her stylists will beautify and enhance your natural features, and give you that dewy glowing look that every bride should have!

Theresa's team did an amazing job providng makeup and hair services for me, my bridal party, mom, and mother-in-law. I did a preview session with Monica a few months before my wedding. She was great to work with! She was very understanding and listened to what I want and the style I was looking for. She also provided helpful suggestions on my hair style that best fit my dress and wedding style.On the day of, Monica and the rest of the makeup team was on time and organized. They went right to work and stayed on schedule with the day of timeline. Theresa's makeup/hair team did a great job on my bridesmaids hairdos. Their hairstyle was a great fit to the overall bridal attire and accessories. Monica did a fabulous job on my makeup and hair. It was exactly the look I wanted and it was very similar to my look at the preview session. I truly felt like a beautiful bride. I definitely recommend Theresa Huang's makeup and hair design to all brides-to-be!

Theresa and her team are awesome!A week before the wedding, she sent me a timeline of the day so I knew exactly what to expect. She and her team arrived on time the day-of and went to work straightaway. My bridesmaids and I had such a fun time getting our hair and make-up done; her team was extremely professional, but also incredibly friendly and fun to hang out with. The team and my bridesmaids were all cracking jokes and having a great time.I loved how my hair and make-up turned out. Theresa gave me a touch-up kit and told my maid of honor how to reapply my blush/lip gloss if necessary, but I didn't need it at all! The make-up stayed on for the entire afternoon and evening (and that's through typical August SoCal weather, so that's saying a lot!).Theresa was one of my favorite vendors to work with during my wedding. I couldn't recommend her more.

Theresa definitely knows what she's doing and for Asian brides this is very important since the way you put on eye makeup is very different than from caucasian eye makeup. I have monolid eyes that can be difficult to work with, but she did a great job and it looked great! Only disappointment I had was that when I saw my makeup in the sunlight, you could see all the blemish scars under my nose. I thought that she had touched it up, because she said she was going to, but it never happened. It kinda made me a little anxious, but thankfully people didn't see me from up close except my husband. For the most part, the service provided was worth the money (she is on the expensive end), and I would definitely recommend her and her staff.

Theresa and her team of ladies were the BEST!!! The first five minutes that I met Theresa (main artist), I knew she was the one for me! We definitely clicked right away and I knew I can trust her. I let her do her thing for my trial session and she made me look and feel beautiful!On the day of the wedding, she showed up with her team of ladies and they were all amazing! She was accommodating for the amount of people I had. I had 4 bridesmaids, 2 moms, and a sister-in-law waiting to get beautified. Theresa brought in 3 other ladies and they showed up on time and had an organized schedule set. Everyone was happy with their hair and make-up and I was definitely loving mine. I received a plethora of compliments and I owe it all to Theresa. She's the best! She's bomb dot com!It also helps that Theresa is so beautiful herself! <3I will definitely want her to do my hair/make-up for any other events that I may have in the future.

Theresa and her team did a fabulous job!! She was highly recommended to me by my planner and she did not disappoint. She had me after seeing her portfolio (http://thmakeupdesign.com/blog/). I gave her complete freedom with my hair and make-up and by far it's the most beautiful I've ever felt. Advice to future brides: not everyone's face structure and hair type is the same. Seeing something you like on a magazine may not look the same on you. You may give your artist a direction to start with but giving them freedom for creativity with yield better results. They are the professionals after all!TH Make-up design is a little on the costly side but WELL WORTH IT! They provide a detailed timeline and provide artists based on the size of the wedding party. Having a talented, organized, and professional team relieves a lot of the stress especially on your big day.

Theresa did exactly what I always dreamed of for my wedding day - she made me look and feel absolutely gorgeous! I honestly could not have asked for anything more - my hair and makeup were just perfect and exactly what I envisioned for myself! It was such a relief to be able to look exactly how I wanted to and feel the best I've ever felt. Seriously, you cannot go wrong with Theresa - she is amazing and worth every penny. Her assistants were total sweethearts and made my bridesmaids look stunning, too.

Theresa Huang makeup n hair team made my wedding day less stressful and did my makeup and hair perfectly, just like what I request for during my trial session, I was a happy bride. The team was so professional and there were 3 makeup n hair artists assisting us, so me and my brides maids and my mom didn't have to wait for too long and our makeup and hair were done as we requested. Only thing might need improvement is the time to do bridesmaids hair felt a bit rushed, other than that everything was perfect! I highly recommend their team for weddings and special events!

I had my makeup and hair done for my wedding by Caroline from the TH Makeup team. She and an assistant finished my hair and makeup as well as four bridesmaids and my mom right on time. They were very professional, punctual, and flexible (they met us at our hotel room with no problems). Everyone's makeup was dramatic, yet not over the top and we all looked great in pictures. They kept our hair similar (everyone had an updo), but unique enough that we didn't look like robots. I did splurge and get the airbrushing, which I thought was worth it. If you want lots of compliments on your hair and makeup on your wedding day, go here, seriously!

Theresa and her team did an awesome job on our hair and make up along with the hair and make up for my bridesmaids during our BIG day! She also did my make up during engagement shoot which is fabulous! She brings a lot of ideas and suggestions that are not overwhelming or pushy. Very easy to communicate with - she answers all your questions and responds to email quickly. And most importantly, she wants you to look even more beautiful than ever! My bridesmaids were also very happy with their hair and make up.I love her hair and make up style... We felt like a Hollywood Celebrity! :)I would absolutely recommend her to a bride who wants professional atmosphere and look exceptionally GORGEOUS. Thank you Theresa! :)
