I'm thrilled I worked with Beautiful Faces for hair and makeup on my wedding day. As a minimal makeup wearer and someone with sensitive skin, and also a woman with curly hair I'm particular about, I was nervous about selecting hair and makeup a...rtists for my wedding. I knew I wanted a professional to help me "elevate" my look on the big day, but I also wanted to feel like myself, and heavy makeup and over-the-top hair weren't part of my vision. I told all this to Janis, the owner of Beautiful Faces, and she understood right away, explaining that she was very comfortable doing more natural makeup looks, and worked with a hair stylist (Amanda, who's also amazing!) who specializes in curly hair. I knew then I wanted to hire Janis and Amanda for my wedding day.
Since I was planning my wedding from across the country, I had very limited availability for hair & makeup trials. But Janis and Amanda were very flexible, and fit me in during a trip I'd planned to the east coast. During the trial, Janis and Amanda listened carefully to what I wanted and didn't want, and worked with me to create looks that made me feel naturally beautiful - and like myself! Amanda was also super helpful in coming up with a style that used my natural curls, which was important to me, and patiently tweaked them after I'd changed my mind!
On the morning of my wedding, Janis, Amanda, and Deirdre arrived bright and early at 7:30 am ready to do hair and makeup for me and my "wedding crew" of 8, including 6 bridesmaids, our officiant, and my mom! Janis listened carefully to what each person wanted for their makeup and any concerns they had, making sure they were comfortable with the whole process. She was happy to adjust to their style - some women wanted minimal makeup and some wanted it heavier, and Janis worked effortlessly to bring out everyone's natural beauty and radiance! And I got that natural, glowing wedding day look I had hoped for. I highly recommend Janis and Amanda!
