    Why Choose On Location Makeup and Hair Services

    1. Complete Studio in Your Room
      We arrive with our lighted Italian-made makeup table with a mirror, director chairs and everything else needed to provide full-service makeup and hair application.
    2. Clean Equipment 
      All of our equipment is disinfected prior to use, and our makeup table (which is cleaned after each use) provides a clean surface for our tools.
    3. Save Time
      By having us come to you, you can forget about getting up early, stressing about traffic and parking to our studio before your ceremony.
    4. We Bring It All
      The plug is on the other side of the room? We have extension cords, power strips, and even gaffer tape to make sure no one is inconvenienced. Low light room? Our vanity of lights will evenly light your face, ensuring perfect makeup in any environment. No high chairs? We have comfortable, solid wood director chairs. The only mirror is in the bathroom? Our table has a mirror, allowing us to get you ready anywhere.
    5. Fast Service, No Footprint
      The entire setup is quickly and quietly installed and setup in about 12 minutes, all before your start time. After we are done, we immediately store the equipment and collapse the kits, and are off so you can focus on the rest of your preparation.
    6. Great Value
      Save time, alleviate stress, and be pampered on the most important day of your life, all at rates that are very affordable.
    7. Gorgeous Backdrop
      We get constant feedback from videographers, photographers and brides about how much they love the look and feel of the table, lights, and action. If you want the best ‘behind-the-scenes-get-ready’ shots, our lighted Italian makeup table as a beautiful, timeless prop.

    Triple Twist’s studio is located San Francisco’s landmark Flood Building at 870 Market Street (corner of Powell and Market).  You may have seen the large GAP on the bottom floor, or the Powell Street cable car turntable just outside.

    So what’s new?

    Now centrally located. We are in downtown San Francisco, walking distance to restaurants, hotels, Union Square, shopping, and more.

    Easy access. Take BART (Powell Street), ride MUNI, or park in one of four major parking garages within walking distance — the Ellis O’Farrell garage is just across the street.

    Close to your hotel. We are just blocks away from some of San Francisco’s finest hotels, where many of our clients get ready for their weddings.  The Westin San Francisco, Omni Hotel, Sir Francis Drake, Grand Hyatt, Parc 55, Four Seasons, and the Fairmont are within six blocks of our new studio.

  • Professional Bridal Trial Photography

    After your trial at our studio, you will know how your makeup and hair looks and feels in person, but what will it look like in your wedding photos?

    We offer professional photography at our bridal trials so you can see high resolution pictures of your makeup with consistent, even lighting. You can clearly see all angles of your hair design in color and black and white.

    Our wedding trial photos allow you preview your wedding day look on film and make any necessary changes before your bid day – we hope that it gives you peace of mind before your big day.
