07 gal crashing Hair/Makeup Vent

For those ladies who are considering booking Mia of ************* please read<------it will also make sense why this is blocked out.

She is totally overbooking herself. When I went in for a hair/makeup trial for my e-pics Mia was working on a trial, had another bride to be without an appointment waiting on the couch, and me. She had me sit in my chair (20 minutes post start time) then went on the couch and worked with this other bride's weave she brought with her. Then 10 minutes into working with me a friend who also is a makeup artist stopped in to 'hang' with her. This girl was up in my face watching Mia work & her technique, and offering suggestions. The girl stayed through out my ENTIRE hair & makeup trial. The two of them chatted it up the whole time even as Mia put her to work such as taking apart her new shipment of lashes. The girl went out to get pizza for the two and I was going to raise hell if they ate together during my time. They didn't but trust me with the look on my face I think they got it. Mia backed out on her word of doing my bridal party & my mom. Instead, she booked a date twin of mine and said she could still do it so long as we pushed my start time back and she was able to get an assistant to do my gals & mom. Ummmm can you say no! I don't know this assistant's work and I wanted her. Her friend the makeup artist took my hair down from the trial and then set my hair for my e-pics. Not exactly what I wanted but at that point I was out of time. Had we started my trial on time I would have been fine. Well after seeing her lack of professionalism (time with client), greed with booking clients and $$$, and her oh I have to do this & I have to call this person throughout my entire trial I said no way. Just thought you gals should know. P.S. She is banned from this site as a result of not showing up for some events she was scheduled to.

I've seen her work and was in awe. She was offended the 1st hair style was not the one. She even said me opting out of a tiara was making it hard. Ummm may brides opt out of using a tiara work around it! It's not like I told you mid trial it was the 1st thing I said along with showing all the pics of hair I did and did not like. I also wanted to play with a couple of looks but after me telling her the 1st was not it she was nasty when she said 'you do know you and I are having a communication problem.' No were not having a communication problem you just don't like the fact that I didn't like the 1st look and you have to do another one. I paid $150 to hear & deal with that! Sometime when people become too popular it goes to their head. Plus some of the 07gals are doing side projects with her so don't believe all you read. Remember this site can turm posts & raves into a lot of $$$$$$
I was not late thanks to a heavy foot but many accidents could have happened to me & as a result of me Plus I did not pay to have another MAKEUP vendor take down and reset my HAIR. Plus this makeup person was going from the hangout session to COSMETOLOGY school to learn hair!!!!! Seriously gals I cannot make this shiit up.

I posted this on the 08 board but I too had a bad experience with Mia, I was so angry I swore it was my LIW duty to get the word out :

Thank you for posting this, I had a very bad experience with mia too. I called her to book her, not even set up a trial and she said she's really busy and she'd call me back. I waited 3 weeks, never heard back from her, and came on to LIW one day and found that a girl with the same date as me set up a trial with Mia. Meanwhile, Mia assured me that my date was not booked and no one was even looking into it. She is unreliable, unprofessional and I am glad that I found this out BEFORE i booked her.

Re: 07 gal crashing Hair/Makeup Vent

Yeah thanks for sharing, I had booked an appointment with her and then another bride (my date twin) told me she booked with her already, if I booked with her as well it would have been a disaster bec we have the same wedd date. The artist didnt realize that she already had booked someone else for my date, thank goodness I didnt go all the way over to her salon for nothing. She prob thought she can make $$$ off of my trial or something. Very unprofessional

There are many gals who are having similar problems but some gals choose not to post for their own reasons.

people can be so selfish sometimes... shes trying to make an extra buck while you guys are trying to make the best day of your life go as smoothly as possible.

i hope she gets her hand stuck in a hair dryer.

LOL
meanwhile, she did the same thing to me
she got really piiiisssed when i HATED the first style and so did my mom
like my mom told her, it was NOT a reflection of her work, it didnt look good on ME

i do think she is overbooking and double booking to get $$ out of trials and then say 'OOPs' im booked on your day!!!
