I would not recommend C. to anyone I know. I did a trial with her and I was horrified, my fiance was horrified, and everyone I sent pictures too was horrified. She came in, and did tell me she was having a rough day so I was willing to excuse a few things, but in the end was very unprofessional and didn't care about making me happy at all. She didn't ask me about my venue, my dress, what time of day my wedding was, or even the look I was going for. All she asked was what I normally do, during which she interrupted me and said she knew just the look that would be perfect. That somehow included a ton of black eyeliner, shadow, a ton of unblended blush, and unevenly applied red lipstick. For all she knew I could have been getting married in a backyard at 11am. I didn't want to hurt her feelings and tell her to start over, but was so confused about what information I possibly gave her to give me this look. I've never seen a bridal photo with this type of makeup, and nothing on her page looks like this. I tried to get her to fix it as she was packing up, saying that I wasn't totally happy and hoping I could guide her in the right direction but she just said that she would take notes and then on the day of it would be perfect. That's not how this works. I regret paying her for her services. Very unprofessional and didn't care about what I wanted at all.
Edited to add that after I posted this review the vendor posted a completely falsified response below and sent me text messages about my 'nasty' review. Please spare yourself the experience I am currently having with this girl.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I am so sorry to all my lovely clients and potential clients who have to read this nonsense This lady was very disgruntled and unhappy with everything I tried with her For her to take it this far is mind blowing as I was the one who had to call the police on HER after she would not stop harassing me It is quite sad that nowadays anyone and everyone can try to ruin your valued reputation on the ibternet. On another note, it does not ruffle my feathers and I will keep flying high! My bus8ness is bigger than ever and this is only one horrible review in comparis9n to the 46 five star I have received in just one year! Thank you to all my beautiful clients who have used me and continue to use me!
I cannot believe I am even reading this! Christa did my bridal party of FIFTEEN two weeks ago and each and every member was beyond satisfied with her talent, her professionalism and her calming effect! To all future clients, please do not let this one bad review effect your decision on using her. There are always going to be very unhappy people in this world and clearly the person who wrote this went really far to put in a business complaint! Keep your head up Christa, not everyone can lIke someone they are not!
Christa at Face of a Princess is the kindest, sweetest and most talented artist I have ever worked with Being a model, I have used her numerous times and have NEVER had any type of problem with her as this person stated above and I find it even hard to believe to be honest here. Shocking really. Keep up the good work Christa, you're the best and thank you for all the joy you have brought into my shoots!
I find this very hard to believe. If you type of this nasty persons name, you will see that she has put in numerous complaints about a variety of businesses Clearly she is a very unhappy person that sets out to ruin people's reputations It's sad that any nut can go on the Internet and do this. smh
Thank you Christa for notifying me and asking me to dispute this for you as it is completely ridiculous nonsense. I also clicked on the person who complained about you and don't fret, she uses this site often to put in complaints. To others reading this, Christa worked on my bridal party last summer and was an absolute pleasure. She was so wonderful at both my trial and wedding. I'm not going to get into too much detail but to all future clients, you will really be missing out if you decline Face of a Princess services. Christa is talented, kind, considerate and caring. Best wishes Christa and I'm sorry someone took things this far!
Katie, you really need to stop. All you do on this site is call people liars, mental cases, pedophiles, p stars etc. Anyone reading this is clearly understanding you have the problem not me. Especially throwing in the word obesity shows you have internal mental problems and should probably get help. You hold personal vendettas. Please do get an attorney because I have proof of you harassing me on my texts, a police report as well as all this childish behavior and name calling. Keep writing nasty reports on EVERYONE that provides you with services. You are clearly a VERY VERY unhappy person and I actually am to the point where I feel sorry for you.
Katie, enough is enough You really need to stop holding personal vendettas against people. When clicking on your name, it shows you call people all kinds of terrible things such as liars, pedophiles, the works. And now you call me obese. I think you are the one with the mental disorder. I hope you really do hire a lawyer because I have all your harassing text messages, a police report and now this. You are really embarrassing yourself tremendously and and are so mentally ill I have compassion and feel sorry for you. So like I said, please hire an attorney but temember, you might just get put into a state hospital. So very sad
Please future vendors, be very, very careful of this girl. She is now again threatening me via text messaging. I believe she is truly dangerous so please be careful on rendering services for her.
Thank you for the compliment on my vm, I am flattered. I consume your mind so much, i must be a REALLY important person. You sound like a crackhead. Thanks again! :)
This is a very normal comment to write. Why don't you leave me alone. This has been going on for years now
It sounds very low class to make fun of drug addicts as well. That is just ignorant. Maybe you should educate yourself on the matter where we are having a major drug epidemic in this country. It's not something to joke about. People are dying everyday and you are making fun of the deceased? You have severe mental problems
Katie i would really ask that you stop tormenting me. Writing more falsified reviews on weddingwire is very childish and dishonest...I just lost my husband a month ago and if you could refrain from tormenring a young widow and have some compassion that is what would be normal.
I am completely sickened by what I am reading. Christa from Face of a Princess is a gem. I did a trial with her last week, THREE weeks after her husband passed away and she still did not cancel. She was kind, compassionate and professional. To know this woman, i guess her name is Katie Weston by what i have read in the previous comments, is tormenting a kind soul who is a young widow is absolutely dispicable, inhumane ans wretched. None of her initial complaint can be remotely true because i experienced something completely opposite, especially while Christa was grieving. It tears me up that this site is even on the Internet so any person can slander anothers name. Well I am writing this to give Christa justice...I will see you at my May 20th wedding and please take care of yourself, I cannot imagine what you are going through and my prayers are wirh you always.
Well after a two year vendetta all over a bad trial this girl will still not leave me alone. She makes up fake fb names and sends me cruel messages, beyond cruel. She is inhumane and sick. She tried to get me thrown off my advertising site but she lost on that one. I can't wait for her to find another victim but one day she will get caught and go to jail. This was her latest message to me. I mean how inhumane and sociopathic can you be?
Makeup and Hair made us 45 minutes late for our wedding! Below is what happened. I had a very small bridal party (4 people including flower girl). Christa came to my hotel room at 8am and wedding is at 1:30pm. However, she did NOT manage the time well for makeup and hair at all and we were late for 45 minutes. We had a major crunch to get out of the door for wedding. It was just not what I needed for my wedding day. All of the events got pushed behind due to this delay. Not happy! I have no photos of my one bridesmaid (who is also my maid of honor) helping me with my dress because she was stuck on the chair to get her hair done at the last minute. She did a good job with the airbrush. However, the eyelashes she put on my mom fell off way before the end of the day. I'm just glad I didn't get false lashes from her the day of the wedding because the lashes she put on during the trial, 3 weeks earlier, fell off in 1 hour and it was very uncomfortable. She or her staff are not professional hair dressers. We wanted updos. But our hair was just curled and pined randomly. The pins kept falling off the entire night! Some started to fall off before the wedding started and kids kept picking up hair pins for me on the dance floor. OMG! Before the cake cutting, my flower girl's hair fell apart with a string hanging down. My Maid of Honor's hair is not even close to what she wanted. She wasn't organized with her stuff and had hard time finding what she needed. In the end, I had to stay behind to wait for her staff to leave my hotel room making me even later. In summary, she made me late, I didn't get what I paid for and she didn't offer any discount. This was such an unpleasant experience, I don't think I will even use Thumbtack again.
Jing, I'm not certain why you keep writing falsified reviews on me. We have gone through this FIVE times already. When we first began contact, you inappropriately and consistently called me hours after business hours and I was nice enough to take your calls because I wanted to please you. I managed my time very well so you were dishonest about that. Then you say you were late because of us? No, because when we left your room you were still putting on your shoes and accessories. In my whole career I have NEVER had bobbypins fall out and heard such a story of people picking up bobbypins off your dance floor. I just can't believe that for one second. And to say you were dissatisfied with the way you looked? Jing, I have photos of you on my cell phone after you were made up smiling from ear to ear and I know a disgruntled bride would not be doing that. I also have pictures of your wedding and you looked more than happy so if you would like me to post them on here, I certainly can. Another question, why after the trial did you not tell me your eyelash fell off? Because it didn't happen or you would have brought it up. This whole story is completely fabricated. I don't know why you feel the need to keep discussing it when you aren't being truthful at all.
Best Wishes
To all my customers and my potential customers! Thank you all for your business, it is so greatly appreciated. I know this Blog has gone back and forth and it has been and falsely written about me which is fine. Please just scroll down a little further under Google search and you will certainly see that this is an illegitimate site that anyone can use to destroy others businesses. Unfortunately the fact has been left out that I did have a restraining order against this woman and that is neither here nor there. All I wanted to add was this is definitely an illegitimate page to complain about people's businesses and how to ruin them. I thank you all for believing in me and my work! Thank you for all who have used me and thank you who are using me in the future! I look forward to your wedding day!
