Andrea Juarez: Hair + Makeup Artist

Andrea is an incredible asset for your big day or special occasion, I can't possibly recommend her highly enough. Not only does she have a wonderful personality, but her skills are also impeccable. She's so chill and honest, you can rely on her to make high quality suggestions on your look that take it up a notch. I came to her asking for a waterfall braid and she suggested a completely different look after seeing my dress. I AM SO DAMN GLAD I LISTENED TO HER! She had me lookin' like Jessica Rabbit in the best way possible 😆. I've never received so many compliments. Run, do not walk, to book Andrea!

If you need a H&MU artist for your wedding, do yourself a favor and book with Andrea!! Not only is she EXTREMELY talented but she's so sweet, fun, and a dream to work with. She listened to what I had envisioned and perfectly captured the look I was going for for both my engagement photo shoot and on my wedding day!! If you want to look phenomenal on your wedding day, book with her NOW.

tl;dr: hire Andrea for your wedding day and don't look back! I was a bit overwhelmed as a bride when it came to selecting a HMU team. What should I be looking for? How do you choose? I feel like makeup and hair are both highly personal to each bride/bridal party member, so even pictures don't always enable the best evaluation. Nonetheless, after reviewing quotes and photos from about 5-7 artists in the Austin area, I felt like Andrea would be the best match for the things I was looking for - personality, cost, and style. I think an absolute must for any bride is the trial process. I was a bit nervous going into this, because I only had a very loose idea of what I wanted (more so for my hair) and knew from prior experience as a bridesmaid that it can be a bit overwhelming to get full glam, especially in normal clothes on a normal day. After about an hour in Andrea's chair, I felt confident I made the right choice insofar as her personality and vibes were concerned. She made me feel comfortable, listened to, and excited. She offered feedback and suggestions based on what I told her I was thinking, and she did this in respectful way that honored what I was imagining while also infusing her professional opinion. At the end of the trial, I felt like Andrea really nailed the general vibe of what I was looking for, and I was prepared to make final tweaks for wedding day. Fast forward to the big day itself, and Andrea assembled a team to help me, my family, and my bridal party with ease. They navigated my instructions to our hotel suite and we just had the BEST time! Getting ready with my gals on my wedding day was something that was really important to me, and it will always be one of my best memories from the day. Andrea and her team fit into the scene flawlessly, singing and laughing with us, but also taking their craft seriously. Every bridal party member they put their hands on looked like a million bucks -- like themselves, but elevated! Then it was my turn. I gave Andrea the few feedback points I had from my trial, and she got to work. The ultimate result was absolute perfection, and a look that lasted all night. Oh! And we stayed ON TIME the entire morning - we even showed up at the venue a little early! This was a great added bonus.
