Karis was amazing! She was extremely nice and super-professional. She was very easy to work with and after meeting her for my trial, I knew I had to book her. She made me feel at ease and I loved the way I looked. She showed up on time for both my trial and the day of. I am super thankful that I found Karis and that she did my hair and make-up on my wedding day!

Karis did an AMAZING job on my hair and makeup for my wedding. I was so pleased with how well she was able to replicate both hair and makeup from pictures. She is very professional and I would definitely reccommend her to any bride who wants to look "stunning" on her wedding day.
Thanks Karis!!!

Karis was great!!!!! I loved my hair and make up and never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. Everyone raved about my hair and make up and it looked perfect from 12pm to 12am. I recommend air brush! It kept my skin flawless all day and night. I recommend Karis 100%!

Karis was amazing! She did my hair and makeup for my wedding, plus five of my bridesmaids. I was so happy with her work. My makeup looked perfect, and very natural. She used extensions in my hair and it looks amazing! I could not have been happier with her work. She was professional, on-time, super-sweet and great at what she does. I would absolutely recommend her.

This review is overdue but I wanted to make sure everybody knows about how I had a good experience with Bella Blush. As the bride, I wanted to look special but not over the top. Karis, the owner, did a GREAT job with my hair and make-up! She was on time for the trial and the big day. She really listens to the look you want for your day and she throws in good ideas as well. She also did the moms' hair and make-up and they looked great! My mom is very picky about how I would look and her as well of course but Karis impressed my mom. She had good prices, responded timely, and flexible with your availability. I definitely recommend her for your wedding or any event! Thanks Karis!

I have been a bridesmaid nine times and have had my hair and makeup done each time, never ending up completely happy with my look. I have met and worked with several artists in the Orange County area, but none of them even come close to the talent and expertise that Karis brings to her brides. Karis is able to create a perfect, customized look for each client according to their skin/hair type, personality, and personal requests. I was actually shocked at how much I loved the way I looked, and all night long my guests were telling me they were stunned as well. I looked and felt like me, but more beautiful than ever. All my bridemaids and my mom were completely pleased as well. Karis and her team are calm and professional. They are also super fun and really add to the excitement and energy that you should feel on your wedding day. The makeup and hairstyles lasted all night - through eating, drinking, dancing and sweating. I could not be happier and have already referred three of my friends to Bella Blush!!

Karis did a beautiful job on my hair and make-up for my wedding day - I could not have been happier with how everything turned out! Really enjoyed working with her and she was great about asking me if there was anything I wanted changed and always being positive. Would highly recommend to any bride!

Karis was my very first trial and I booked her immediately because she was such a good listener. My hair/makeup looked exactly like the inspiration I gave her during the trial. I changed my mind on hair numerous times before the wedding and Karis was always very nice and open to suggestions.
On the day, she showed up 10 minutes early and did a beautiful job. It turned out exactly what I asked for. She did a great job on my mom too. I would highly recommend Karis to any bride. She's a terrific listener and ALWAYS punctual.

Karis did the makeup and hair for me and my three bridesmaids, and my mother. She did a beautiful job, was always on-time, and very professional. She was great at staying calm even as there was chaos around her. My make-up and hair lasted the whole day and looked very natural. I did a trial with her before, and she was very responsive to any changes I wanted, although we needed very few. My bridesmaids' hair all last through the night, even after taking photos on a very windy day. I would definitely recommend her. Her prices are good, and her services are even better. Thanks again Karis!

Karis was AMAZING! We did my hair and make-up without a trial and I was extremely happy with the way it turned out! She also fit one of my bridesmaids in last minute to get her make-up done. She's professional, nice and does a wonderful job! Thank you!

12-7-09 - Just got back from my honeymoon and am seeing pictures from my wedding. Karis is AMAZING- she is professional, prompt, perfectly natural and just completely sweet. She worked with our group of women who weren't all sure what they wanted, and we were all late as women can be, and she got us all done in time and looking GREAT- she is the absolute best in orange County - and probably elsewhere. Also she is reasonable in price and very flexible in schedule. thanks Karis for making my day much more special than I ever dreamed. I rate karis all 5's - if there was a 10 I would rate her that. All the best - Deborah Cannon

After having a horrible experience with a pervious hair and makeup artist, I called Karis frantic looking for someone 3 weeks before my wedding! She was able to calm me down and we schedule a preview. I brought my mother to the preview with me. At the preview Karis had me show her pictures of what I wanted and what I didn?t want, what my dress looked like, what kind of veil I had, and what kind of jewelry I was going to be wearing. She really paid close attention to all the little things. I wasn?t sure if I wanted my hair up or down on my wedding day. Karis showed me a few different hair styles and from that I was able to make my decision! I was so impressed with Karis at the preview that I hired her on the spot! I loved how she did my hair and makeup! On the wedding day Karis arrived at 6am to get started on myself and my 2 bridesmaids. She kept us all on schedule and we were done on time. My hair and makeup came out better than I could of imagined. On the wedding day she made sure everything was perfect. My hair and makeup turned out amazing in pictures! My bridesmaids (which are my sisters) loved how Karis did their hair and said they felt so beautiful that day! I couldn?t of asked for anything more from Karis she is extremely talented, carring and truly loves her job which is so important! Pick up the phone and Book Her! You won?t be disappointed!!!!

A good friend of mine recommended Karis saying that I would "just love her," and she was right! Karis is very down to earth, and wanted to know and hear about how I wanted to look (different from many other stylists who want to do their thing). During the trial, she was great about asking how I felt every step of the way, modifying as we went along. Then, she took a bunch of pictures so that she knew exactly what I liked. On the day of, she and her assistant had to do hair and makeup for me (the bride), two mothers, 5 bridesmaids, and the flower girl - clearly a lot of work - and she did so easily and with a smile. I decided I wanted a slightly different style from the trial - no problem, Karis asked what I wanted, and we played with it until it was just right! Things were super calm - she did a fantastic job at making sure we all stayed on schedule, looked beautiful, and most of all had fun! She skillfully made everyone - from ages 6 to 65 - look their absolute best..... a wonderful experience!

Karis was actually recommended to me by a friend who used her a few months earlier for her wedding hair and makeup. After seeing the pictures from her wedding, I knew I was in good hands, and by the time I actually met Karis, I was sold! She was SO nice. And better yet, she did exactly what I wanted with my hair. I normally have problems, as my hair is super-fine and thin...but Karis got my hair to do exactly what the picture did.
On the day of the wedding, Karis had already been to the HOSPITAL with an allergic reaction...but she showed up, right on time, ready to go. I couldn't believe it, but she showed so much dedication. I love her to death!! She did a wonderful job on me and a few of my bridesmaids, and I'm so glad I found her! Honestly one of my favorite vendors!!!

This review has been a long time in the making, but regardless I must commend Karis and her crew on all their excellent hair and make-up skills! I was married on June 12, 2010 in Arcadia and Karis was more than accommodating. She and her team drove to my mother-in-law’s house (in Arcadia), arrived early, and worked fast and efficiently to get 10 people ready and looking absolutely beautiful for the big day. Even though I was the bride, I only had a slight idea of what I wanted, which I described to Karis. She knew what I was saying and ran with it. Honestly, she does tremendous work at such a reasonable rate. I received so many compliments on my make-up and hair that day and ever since (as people look at our pictures). A friend of a friend recommended her to me and I now recommend her to everyone. Kudos to Karis!

Karis did an great job at making my bride look stunning and still like her "natural" self. Karis is a talented artist, as wells as her assistant, together they worked their magic to make all of our bridemaids look beautiful with coordinating hairstyles, as well. After the trial, I knew my bride was in good hands and she was beaming from successfully finding a artist. Great Job!!
