| - I'm a "up and coming" HMUA artist who is starting to dabble in special effects, and I needed stuff to kill some chicks for a shoot.
I asked a few friends in the business where I should go for products, and this place was mentioned a few times, of course I had to go check them out.
They offer huge assortment of dance apparel, costumes, and really anything you would need in this niche of the business, or even a Halloween costume.
I talked to this amazing woman who showed me so much, and kinda put together a little starter pack for me to do this shoot. She didn't sell me stuff she thought I might need, and was genuinely interested and attentive with me. She was so awesome, and went as far as doing a demo with some of the products I was buying. She gave me lots of tips and tricks, and even took my business cards which I appreciated b/c as a freelance artist at this point work is attained word of mouth mainly.
My 6 year son even chatted it up with another employee about magic (they also have magic sets), and Dead Mau5 who was all to kind keeping him occupied with conversation while I was getting my life together for this shoot.
I am planning another trip b/c there are a few other items I'm gonna need to grab.
While I can probably get things a little cheaper online, but it doesn't come with the service this place has, and I love to support local businesses.
