Transformations Makeup Institute

We have personally worked with both Transformations Make Up Institute and Colors Salon on various community events and large-​scale charity functions. We have seen first-​hand the high quality of work done by both their students right up to Master Styling and Makeup Staff. Their students and professional staff are some of the best the industry has to offer.
I know of Ginger as a fellow salon owner. Having attended different functions with her, I can tell you, she cares deeply for her students and the quality of education they receive. And her students love her in return. She works tirelessly on educating and continually giving back to the community. She and her husband, Dean Rhodes who owns Colors Salon downtown are pillars in the salon and cosmetology industry. They are highly experienced and highly regarded by other salons, salon owners, schools, clients and students, past and present.

Ginger Wong is an amazing makeup artist, but she’s also a lifesaver. I had a bikini show coming up on Saturday and two days before the show, the people who were supposed to do my makeup called and told me they didn’t have space — I was screwed. How was I supposed to do my makeup with my fake dark show tan? I didn’t even have those colors in my day-​to-​day makeup bag.
I had heard of Ginger Wong or Transformations Makeup from Mellisa Paul at Sac & Co and thought I would give them a try even if it was last minute.
Ginger told me she was going to be out of town on the day of my show, but she didn’t give up on me. Instead she went out of her way and agreed to meet me the day before to teach me how to do my own makeup for the show. I emailed her photos from previous shows so she could see the look that was needed and how dark my spray tan would be – and she took it from there.
The day before the show, she was extremely patient during my lesson and re-​applied my makeup until it was exactly how I liked it, then showed me how to do it myself. Because I’m picky this process took a couple of hours, but Ginger didn’t care. She said that we would do it until I was comfortable. She wouldn’t be happy until I was happy.
She also had me bring in my own makeup and brushes to see what I already had, but anything I didn’t have (and liked) she had there for me to purchase from the Muse line that she uses. No pressure to buy at all which was nice. I was able to mix a little of my current makeup and only bought the stuff I needed.
I was very impressed with the customer service I got from Transformations Makeup and how they went above and beyond to try to help me out of my sticky situation. I now know how to do my own show makeup, but more importantly, I know I can trust them to do a good job with my makeup for any special event I have in the future.
Ginger Wong and her makeup artist team at Transformations Makeup really are the best professional makeup artists in Sacramento.

I have had no previous training in learning makeup, and then i heard about this two day intense course at Colors Salon and I gave it a shot. So far I’ve finished one day and have learned more than I could have imagined. best decision I’ve made in a long time! They are all about being professional, having good quality, and being your own artistic self. The instructors rock and everyone there is so helpful and sweet. looking forward to my next class :)

Transformations is the best makeup coarse I have ever taken there makeup artist Tammi and Jesse are amazing and Ginger Wong the president of the company is fabulous I would recommend this class to everyone you will learn a lot from the best artists. Take the class it is worth every penny.

I took this makeup class today and this was the best makeup class. I have to thank Ginger Wong owner of Transformations Makeup Institute for being available to all my questions prior to going to the class and her fabulous staff — Jesse and Tammy who were wonderful! They made learning doing makeup the professional way fun and their one on one instruction was warm and friendly and made you feel confident that you can do it too!
