Yin did my makeup and hair for my pre-wedding photos. She was very professional. Her studio was very clean and my experience with her was very pleasant. Highly recommended for anyone.

I couldnt have picked a better makeup artist for my August 2020 wedding than Yin. I asked for a natural, sweet look with a little va-va-voom of lashes back in late 2019 for our makeup trial and she captured exactly that in her quaint home studio. I kept the makeup on for some time afterwards and even went out to eat and the makeup stayed in place (apart from lipstick of course).When COVID hit, I reached out to Yin to figure out what we could do since I didnt want to expose both of us and her family. She agreed to teach me over camera across a few sessions and she even gave me a couple options for what to cover in each lesson. Yin takes her work very seriously and asked that I treat the learning process seriously as well, including doing makeup homework, so I was a bit nervous having never done much other than some eyeliner and concealer. It turned out to be one of the best COVID mini-projects Ive done!Yin was warm and friendly, explained adjusting the makeup to my face shape clearly, was receptive to feedback in-between when I thought something was a bit too much, taught me to put on fake lashes, provided product recommendations, and gave me good tips for taking care of the makeup for an outdoor possibly humid day. I dont know if she will always accommodate online learning, but she was truly flexible and professional with me in a tough situation.Would I hire her again? Yes, especially if it means I dont have to buy hundreds of dollars of makeup and tools to do it myself.

I got married 6/22/2019 and Im so happy I choose Yin and Kettia. After trying another stylist and being very leery after they didnt know how to treat my hooded eyes, I was very pleased with my trial with Yin. She made sure to check what level of makeup I usually wore, my dress style, and then did the makeup in stages so I could see the effects and adjust. She took note of small details like that one eye was more hooded and therefore needed more false lashes on that one. She also took pictures at all angles to ensure we could recreate the look.On the day of my wedding, I had hair and makeup done for myself and 6 other ladies in the bridal party. Yin and Kettia were fun, energetic, and took the time to understand each ladys style and makeup preferences, especially since we were quite a diverse group. My MOH loved the fact that Kettia knew how to style her dreads. Each of my bridesmaids told me they really enjoyed their look and feeling their best, and our getting ready was very relaxed and full of laughter. I can attest that the makeup did not budge all night, and it looked even better than the trial that we did. It looked very natural in pictures even though it was heavier than my usual. She also taught my bridesmaid how to attach my veil and take it off without ruining my hair, and left me extra lip gloss for touch ups.I really appreciated Yins attention to detail in all of her followup and reminders. The night before, she even reminded me to send my room number to them when I checked in (which I would have totally forgotten to do)! She is a true professional and worth every penny!

Yin is amazing at understanding and executing on the look you want! I had initially gone with a hair stylist near my house out of convenience but the lady did a horrible job with my thick, long, Asian hair. Luckily, my photographer recommended Yin and I was so lucky she was available on my wedding date!Yin is extremely professional and takes extraordinary pride in her work. Before our meeting, she asked me to send her pictures of myself, the hair styles, and the makeup styles I wanted. I could tell when we met for the first time that she had analyzed the themes of what I wanted and pinpointed the specific the themes around the hair and makeup that I liked. I appreciated that Yin listened to what I wanted, while also being very professional in recommending what she thought would be better suited for me. When I got to see the final look on my big day, I couldnt been any happier. My makeup was so natural while accenting my features and hair was AMAZING!! Beyond anything I imagined. You wont regret going with Yin!

Yin is AMAZING! She is super responsive and organized with emails. Also, I don’t usually wear make up and Yin helped create a look I was comfortable with. On the day of the wedding, she was prompt, energetic and my sister and I just loved her company while getting hair and make up done. She was very patient with my mum and even my aunts (who I had just met) who requested for an add-on service. She was really kind and considerate of their request and consulted with me first to make sure I was comfortable. But most importantly, I loved my hair and make up! I received so many compliments and it just worked so well with the theme and dress. We did hair and m/u early for our first look and it lasted well into the evening! Love love love everything about the whole experience! Thank you Yin!

I recently got married on April 20th, 2019. Yin is absolutely amazing. Not only is she a professional, but she is very approachable and personable. She has a great personality! She is also very accommodating as well. Yin did my bridal hair and makeup and makeup for 5 of my bridesmaids. They all looked so beautiful. I wanted a natural wedding look and she totally nailed it. She understands a persons features and knows how to enhance your beauty.

Yin did my hair and makeup for my small City Hall wedding. In a word, she is amazing! Yin was super easy to communicate with and pricing was laid out very clearly, which I appreciated. I did a makeup trial with her first and it was amazing how perfect a look she created for me, given that I only sent her a few photos and spoke to her for a few minutes before she got started. She created a very natural look that still photographed very well and lasted ALL DAY. On the day of the wedding, she somehow managed to take the 10 random and very different hairstyle photos I sent her and create a hairstyle that suited me perfectly. My hair did not budge even after 12 hours! Although it was a small wedding, Yin still put 100% effort into everything and it shows. I was completely thrilled with the result. Yins services are worth every single penny and Im so glad I made the investment. I would definitely recommend!

Yin did a wonderful job with my makeup for professional headshots. The photos came out great, very natural looking and just what I wanted. And she is a lovely person too, really welcoming and fun to chat with. Highly recommended!

Yin Tom was wonderful! She did my wedding hair and makeup and made me feel like a princess on my special day. She knew exactly what my style was and made me look flawless! I received so many compliments. Highly recommended!

Yin did my hair and makeup for my wedding on June 25 and everything came out so beautifully! My hair was medium length and I didnt think I had enough hair for a nice looking bun but she pulled it off and it looked so perfect and full! She also definitely knows her colors. She was able to pick the best color combination of eyeshadow, blush, and lipstick for my complexion. I never considered the colors she had picked and in the end the effect was stunning. Lastly, she is very meticulous and careful with the makeup application which I really appreciated. I never felt she was rushing and she constantly kept stepping back and checking her work to make sure everything came out perfectly. My whole experience with her from booking the trial to scheduling the actual wedding day and the real makeup application was so easy. Not to mention my makeup lasted the whole afternoon and evening!! Id highly recommend her for any bride or for any of your special event makeup/hair needs!

Yin is an absolutely amazing make up artist and hair stylist! I needed help for a professional headshot photo session this past Monday. Yin gave me a very natural makeup, with absolutely perfect coverage, color matched to my skin tone, and subtle but effective contouring. The eye shadow and lipstick colors were also great, subtle but not overpowering. The hair styling was also pitch perfect for what I needed. For the high quality of her work, her price is really reasonable, totally great!Also, the joy Yin has in helping her clients put their best face forward is palpable. She is so easy to communicate with, she quickly understands the needs of the client and delivers. She is also polite and kind, and puts her client at ease while she works.Yin is on top of her craft, deft and speedy, but always in control and the results perfect. I am absolutely thrilled to have found her and Im sure to be a repeat customer for other occasions. Thank you so much!

Yin is amazing! One of my fave wedding vendors. Yin and her team did a great work on my wedding day. They did my hair and makeup and my 6 bridesmaids. They did an amazing job with everyone. I have already recommended her to a friend for her upcoming wedding.When I was looking for a makeup artist/hair stylist for my wedding, I really wanted someone who would understand my Asian hair and makeup concerns. She really listens to what you want and make you look your best both in person and in photos. In additionl, her pricing was very reasonable. I can not speak highly enough of her skills and would recommend her.

Yin did an amazing job creating professional looking makeup for a Halloween event that my husband and I were attending. Her work was fabulous - we were receiving compliments the entire evening from people we had never met! Yin is extremely talented, creative, professional and personable. We would highly recommend her.

Yin was absolutely fantastic! I wanted a more natural look for wedding day, and she knew exactly what I meant. Its not easy to find someone who knows perfect makeup for Asian faces. I also love how easy it was to work with her in terms of communication. Payment is super easy and Venmo is an option. And we got so many compliments on hair/makeup of the entire wedding party. Shes super organized and was able to squeeze in last minute requests as well. Also a huge blast to hang out with on wedding day and very calming with her presence. I cant say enough good things about her - Ive been raving about her to all my friends. Several of them have already go their sights set on her for their own weddings. Thank you again Yin for being a highlight of our day!

Highly recommend Yin to be your hair and make up artist! She is responsible, friendly, and accountable! I received many great feedback for my look from my wedding! She did lot of researches and gave many ideas for the hair and make up styles during trial, and she was very efficient on responding to you via emails with any requests you might have. Excellent services!

Yin is the best! I could not express how grateful and thankful to have Yin to be part of my wedding vendors.My wedding was on June 8, 2019. I anxiously looked for makeup stylist as I started planning wedding. It is very difficult to find a good Asian makeup stylist in Boston, especially I have single eyelids. Yin made everything to be very straightforward. I did not usually wear makeups daily, so I was not quite clear about what makeup style would look good on me. Yin is a good listener. She asked me to send the makeup pictures I liked. During the trial session, she communicated with me regarding how to convert the makeup style into the style that look good on my face. She also explained why she would do A not B for bridal makeups. She was also generous sharing her experiences of wedding planning and makeup procedure for all my wedding parties.Before the wedding day, Yin shared with me regarding the makeup timeline and the order of the bridal party makeup. I can tell how experiences she is in terms of the plan she gave to me. On the wedding day, Yin and Kettia arrived on time. They did everything perfectly. Our parents and bridal parties loved the makeup they received from Yin and Kettia. Our makeup stayed perfect on our face during the entire day. I changed my hair style three times during the day. Yin was very kind to spend time working on this with me.Overall, if you are looking for makeup stylist, Yin is the top choice. She is professional and fun to work with.

We just got married today, and our weeding would not be perfect without Yin which is why Im writing this review now. Yin is full of passion, and really patient. She is very organized and super serious on giving us the best looks on our big day. She gave us a feeling that she is our friend and really cares about our wedding. We strongly recommend her as your beauty artist!! Thank you Yin!

Where is the 6th star!!!!!!!Yin, you are just magic!!! The event, Celebration for Kids, is not only super meaningful and close to my heart but one of the only extravaganzas that I get all dolled up for throughout the year!The set-up, Seaport Hotel waiting for a few friends I unfortunately get to see only a couple of times a year due to scheduling etc., we are waiting for Yin to arrive ( never ever meeting her before --- just went by the google search ) we make a cocktail... talk about how amazing it is to get pampered and the bell rings! Yin, a beautiful and full of energy PRO enters......uh oh I think.....we are way over our heads. My friends and I are not New York fashion models.....BUT Yin made us feel that way.She took her time, asked us questions about what look we were aiming for and then the FUN began!!!! She even looked over what we were wearing! Such detail and concern for each one of us. We all felt like princesses, even if it were for one night.I even asked Yin if I could set up an appointment with her at her studio to go over a tutorial on quick yet effective natural looking application of make-up for everyday biz. The answer was, of course!!!Lastly, I must say even though Yin was so extremely professional and artistic..... I felt the urge to invite her to the event!!!! We all loved her so much and we had a blast! It was really cool to point to Yin herself when others asked where did you get your make-up done ;-)I feel so grateful that the google stars aligned and my friends and I found our artist!

Yins skill as both a hair and make-up artist is impeccable. Paying attention to detail and enhancing the unique features within all of her subjects shows how much she cares about her work and those she works with. A total pro with great, positive energy to be around. Looking forward to our next shoot together!

Yin Tom is one of my favorite makeup and hair stylists I have encountered!She is fast, reliable and she has the latest tricks and makeup products & techniques.She even has makeup that you cannot find anywhere else (from Asia). The look is flawless and she can do both very simple and elegant and well as very sexy and edgy.I went to her for a makeup look for an event as well as for a photoshoot and even though the looks were completely different. She aced them both and didnt disappoint.I highly recommend her, as it is so rare to find someone who can do both hair and makeup and her prices are more reasonable than others.From  the very moment I sat in the makeup chair and saw the special lights, the makeup and her inquisitive and adventurous nature, I knew I was dealing with a pro!

I recently got married on June 29, 2019 and had my hair and makeup done by Yin Tom. My girlfriend who got married back in 2017 recommended her to me and I am so happy I did. Yin is sweet, passionate and an artist who truly goes out of her way to make you feel and look beautiful.My wedding party consisted of 3 bridesmaids and 2 moms and Yin made sure she’ll have additional help on my big day. She brought her friend/stylist, Kettia, and boy is she great at her job. She’s energetic, funny, and very easy to work with regarding what hairstyle you are looking for and offer suggestion when needed.I am so happy Yin and Kettia was apart of my big day because without them my wedding party and I wouldn’t look our best. They are extremely talented at their job and goes out of their way to make sure you feel like yourself and more. Yin even showed my bridesmaids how to put on my veil and how to keep it intact. She is that talented! And also, she is very accommodating because I changed my hairstyle last minute too.Ladies, please book with Yin and Kettia to do your bridal hair and makeup. I can’t thank them enough because they made us look like celebrities. Thank you so much!!

Yin was great - very personable, and tons of expertise! she gave me a lot of great advice

Our Fantasy Photography By Daphne studio has used many makeup artists over the years. But, Yin Toms makeup and hair-styling services have always been so creative in bringing out the perfect look for our boudoir, glamour, fashion or business clients. We can always count on Yin Toms artistry, reliability and trustworthiness.

Yin and Kettia are a great team! Yin did both my hair and makeup. She also did the makeup for my bridal party. Kettia did the hair for my bridal party. Yin and Kettia are both energic. It is easy to see how much they love what they do and excited to be a part of your special day. They were both patient, good communicators, willing to listen to my ideas prior to and on the day of my wedding. We had nine ladies scheduled to do both their hair and makeup. Due to Yins organizational skills, everything ran smoothly. They both seem to have lots of experience to help guide me through this process. I really appreciated Yins suggestions for my hair and makeup. The makeup was natural but just enough to stand out for photos. The updo was clean and classic. Thank you Yin & Kettia for your amazing work!

Yin and Kettia did my hair and makeup for me (the bride) and 5 of my bridesmaids, and everyone looked beautiful. My hair and makeup did not budge at all throughout the night despite a lot of crying, dancing, and hugs throughout the day. While Yin and Kettia were experts in their hair and makeup, they were also incredibly kind and made us feel so relaxed during the stressful prehours of the wedding!

It is awesome i never knew my thin hair can keep a tight braid, but yin was good at showing me how i can keep it still and tight for a simple summer look. Also,one style that can be use as classic for bridesmaid.The only thing is for me a lot of work taking down the bobby pins, but yin was fast and efficient that i didnt notice how many it takes to keep my hair up.

Yin is very professional and attentive to the very tiniest detail! I highly recommend her for all your beauty needs.

Excellent, professional service and beautiful hair and makeup.

Yins the best! 100% recommended
