About

Glam by Gabi is a San Diego hair and makeup business led by its owner, Gabriela Ortiz. The business launched its own website in 2019, the year it became fully independent, after years of freelance work and beauty roles at retailers and at Sephora.

Services are booked by request. Each service has its own request form, which asks for the service, start time and location. The business replies within 24 to 48 hours, but a request does not hold a date until it is approved. Approved bookings need a signed contract and a deposit that secures the date and counts toward the total. Deposits are non-refundable if the appointment is cancelled, and cancelling in the week of a wedding or event means paying the full booked amount.

Bridal work is the core of the business. Options include bridal hair or makeup, combined bridal hair and makeup, trials for either, and touch-ups on the wedding day after the ceremony at 100 dollars per hour. Halloween looks run from 200 to 250 dollars depending on the look and location, and include lashes.

Prices may change based on location and add-ons. A travel fee applies to locations outside the San Diego region and is quoted from the address provided. Parking for the artist must be arranged or compensated on the day of the appointment. The business may end or refuse services if the work environment is toxic or behavior is rude or unacceptable.

Work is booked through a request form for each service, with the business responding within one to two days and holding the date only once a contract and deposit are in place.
