Denise is truly such a wonderful human being who also just happens to be a talented HMUA. From our initial text conversations, I felt like I’d known her for years already. The day of my hair and makeup trial, I walked into her cozy in-home studio feeling a little nervous. Denise’s approach of putting me at ease first, before getting down to the business of hair and makeup, was all I needed to realize I’d made the exact right choice of who to entrust with elevating my look for the big day. Cut to the day of the wedding, and spending my morning with Denise and my MOH was like having two best friends in the room with me. HUGE plus that we can (and will continue to) gossip about all things Bravo. I’m a natural look type of girl, and the finished product made me feel like me but with an added WOW factor. And the hair…OMG, she worked wonders with the extensions; so much so that even people who had seen me the night before thought my hair had magically grown several inches overnight. I lost track of how many guests complimented my hair and makeup, though I made sure Denise got full credit. I don’t think I’ll ever again feel quite how I felt that night. Denise works magic and is pure magic herself.

She may cost a little more than some other vendors, but she was absolutely worth every penny! Our wedding hair looked impeccable and stayed flawless for over 20 hours! Friendly, engaging, and a joy to work with, she gave everyone exceptional attention to detail. Her skill with diverse hair types, including ethnic hair, ensured every style was pure perfection. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

I had to book my elopement in three months, and working with Denise took some of the wedding stress off my plate. From booking my trial to my actual wedding day she was so personab...

le and so informative. As someone who only really wears eyeliner, and has never worn extensions, Denise being so skilled made everything so easy. I suffer from very sensitive skin, and eczema. Those issues were prioritized so that I didn’t have to deal with any breakouts or flare-ups after receiving my services. My make up did not feel heavy or uncomfortable, and the same applied to the hair extensions. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed in the chair. The results made me feel like the best version of myself, she executed the vision I had in mind for my look. I have every intention of booking her again for any future applicable events.

Denise styled my naturally curly hair into an updo for my August 2026 wedding, and did makeup for my mom and sister. We were blown away by her kindness, talent, and ability to put ...

us all at ease. I've never received more compliments on my hair, and Denise's pricing was also very fair!

Ania B

Beauty by Denoise was the best choice I made in my engagement era! Both during the trial and during the big day she was warm, understanding, and listened to all my requests and con...

cerns. Preparing with her eased up my nerves completely. And that doesn’t even begin to express how great of a job she did with the hair and makeup!!! My hair and makeup were exactly how I imagined them being and stayed up all day and night despite some rain during the photo taking. She also gifted me a little kit in case I needed some quick fixes - how thoughtful! Overall I wholeheartedly recommend to any bride especially those who are looking for a two-in-one hair and makeup artist!

Mary B

Denise was truly the best from start to finish! So communicative, laid everything out clearly and doesn’t have a minimum based on size of your group, you just pay for what you want...

. She absolutely gave me my dream look!! The trial was amazing but somehow the day of was even better. Cannot recommend highly enough.

I was nervous about finding someone who could style my naturally curly hair for the wedding, but Denise did an amazing job. She was so easy to communicate with and warm, sweet, and...

just a general joy to be around. On the day of, she did an amazing job with my curls, they stayed perfect all night long and did not get frizzy at all. Everyone getting their hair done loved her - would highly highly recommend!

I wanted to do with my hair, and Denise managed the perfect compromise. My makeup was stunning and exactly how I’d hoped it would look. She even helped me into the dress and did up the inner corset! I would highly recommend her again and again and I’m glad she’s out there putting all the new brides at ease!

Despina M

She did the perfect hair and makeup for my wedding! From the trial to the day of, she was incredibly creative and really listened to even my smallest pieces of feedback to make sur...

e everything felt just right. Not only is she amazingly talented, but she also kept such a calm and positive vibe throughout the whole process, which made the experience even more special. My hair and makeup truly felt like a dream come true, and I couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. She even saved the day by helping me put on my “something borrowed” necklace without a hitch — it ended up being one of the statement pieces of the day! I’m so grateful for her talent, professionalism, and kindness. Highly recommend!

Tyana S

Denise did my hair and makeup for my wedding as well as my moms. We are not usually ones to get our makeup done and Denise perfectly executed that no makeup look while still giving...

us our glow up. She asked questions, was so friendly and made any adjustments we may have had. I first did a beauty hair and makeup trial and she was an attentive listener to what I was asking for and was able to execute flawlessly on my wedding day. Despite all of the wedding hustle and bustle she was calm, helpful, professional and so kind to my mom and I and I can't thank her enough.

Caitlin S

Denoise did my mother & I’s makeup for my 10/31/2025 wedding and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My trial was in August and went so well; she made me feel so comfort...

able in her studio it was like hanging out with a friend. I had only one change to request which she accommodated easily. I wanted a lip focused look that was natural, leaned into the spooky witchy Halloween aesthetic we had planned, but was also special since the last time I got my makeup ever done professionally was for prom in high school at Ulta. My experience was everything I wanted and more! I felt so confident all throughout the day and felt gorgeous. My mom also loved her makeup! She hadn’t had her makeup done professionally since her own wedding in 1991 and loved her experience. I couldn’t recommend choosing Denoise to be at your side on your wedding day enough. She’s not just insanely talented but warm and welcoming and will make this part of your day go as smoothly as can be.

Denise was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding day. From my trial makeup to the day-of, her communication was fast, clear, and detailed, putting me at ease throughout ...

the entire process. Denise did an incredible job with my hair and makeup, she’s a true perfectionist! She was also a fun and laid-back person to get ready with, which helped make the morning of my wedding day feel relaxed and enjoyable. Denise even helped my husband with his outfit, going above and beyond to ensure we both looked and felt our best. I can’t recommend Denise enough! A true professional!

Denise was simply amazing to work with. She understood my vision, checked in with me frequently, and made my curly haired bride dreams come true! My hair and makeup lasted flawless...

ly the entire day and night. Most importantly, Denise simply had my back the entire process and on the wedding day/morning. She constantly checked in with my emotional wellbeing which of course helped me tremendously in looking and feeling absolutely stunning and amazing the entire day. Denise also held my hand and guided methroughout the entire planning process helping to ease my stress. She constantly adjusted plans as needed and really helped make my day incredible.

Amanda P

Denise is the best!!! I was one of those brides who went into this process thinking I knew exactly what I wanted, and it ended up taking me two incredible trials with Denise to act...

ually find out what would work for my big day. She was so patient and really listened to what I wanted as we worked out options together. I have naturally curly hair, and I loved that Denise has experience with curls. She's a true professional - always on time and responsive. And we had so much FUN. I hope I get the chance to be styled by her again for another event in the future.

Julie W

Denise was amazing! I found her when looking for an independent hair stylist who had a lot of experience with curly hair and she did not disappoint. She was super communicative and...

well-priced, and she did such a great job at the trial and on the wedding day. My mom, sister, and in-laws also loved her! She was professional, efficient, patient, and kind, and brought a great vibe to our getting ready room. I'd hire her again in a heartbeat!

Lillie F

I immediately felt at ease sitting down in Denise's chair. From our first trial to my wedding day, her calm and cheerful demeanor instantly grounded me. I had a hard time figuring ...

out exactly what I wanted, especially for my hair, and she was beyond patient with me. She is also extremely fast at texting and a very efficient communicator overall. After two trials and a ton of back and forth, she helped me figure out my dream hairstyle (that we hadn't even been able to find on Pinterest!) Denise just took my vision and invented what I wanted...it was magic! The makeup look she created for me was also absolutely perfect -- glowy yet natural. I wanted to look beautiful but still look myself. Lastly, she helped me find a second artist for my small bridal party ( I got married in the morning so we would've all had to wake up super early for Denise to do everyone's look!) I was stressed about figuring out the schedule and logistics and she made everything so easy. 10/10 would work with her again in a heartbeat and encourage anyone considering her for an NYC or NYC-area wedding!!!!

ming for and brought it to life with such care and precision—my hair and makeup not only looked beautiful in photos (both held up during my outdoor ceremony in the rain), but also felt completely like me. On top of that, Denise has such a lovely personality; chatting with her throughout was effortless and calming. I’m already looking forward to the next occasion where I can book her again.

Her skill and attention to detail are unmatched. I felt completely at ease working with her and would absolutely book her again for future events. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch hair and makeup services!

Melissa R

The best! Denise did my bridal hair and makeup and my bridal party’s makeup. I wanted a natural look but also wanted my eyes to pop and Denise delivered. She went above and beyond ...

on the morning of my wedding. She even helped button my dress and helped me calm my pre wedding jitters lol. She is the sweetest person, and so talented! She also did my bridal shower hair and makeup which everyone complimented. Having curly hair has been a little challenging with other stylists not knowing how to style it but Denise was so gentle with my curls and is so knowledgeable about curly hair care, especially with the amount of heat I needed for the look I wanted. Other stylists have given me heat damage but Denise really went above and beyond and my curls sprung right back into form after I washed it.

Her work was truly gorgeous - she did an incredible job with my bridal hair and makeup, she really made it a point to understand what I wanted and the end result exceeded anything I could have imagined. Denise also went above and beyond to help my wedding party, coordinating with the photographer to ensure I was comfortable in every photo, helping my friends with their dresses, and even going so far as to set up heating when it got chilly. She was invaluable in making our special day perfect, and I would 100% hire her again in a heartbeat.
