What an amazing team! Engy did an incredible job with my makeup. It was a natural yet beautiful look, exactly what I wanted. Liana did a great job with my hair as well!! I have thick hair, but she quickly and efficiently curled everything to perfection. I’m almost wishing I didn’t have a veil that covered the beautiful hair style! But the look stayed perfect all night, even through many tears and a lot of dancing. I absolutely recommend Beauty Sway for your wedding or any other event!

I booked BeautySway for both hair and makeup for myself, MIL, mother, and a combination of bridesmaids. The booking process with Engy was seamless and she responds quickly to email...
s throughout the entire process. I also did the hair and makeup trial with Engy and her coworker. It looked beautiful. I did give a couple details that I wanted to change due to personal preference not application at all and Engy was great and updated those details for the day of. On the day of it was Engy doing makeup, a coworker doing hair, and a coworker doing both hair and makeup. They worked efficiently and we were even ahead of schedule and they were able to do makeup for two extra people that originally did not book it, but after seeing how the makeup looked, they wanted to add it on. All our makeup turned out beautifully. I was a little nervous since I traditionally don’t wear a lot of makeup, but the makeup also photographed really well and Engy knew exactly what to do to make me feel comfortable and love it! Overall, I would highly recommend BeautySway. I have zero complaints and all compliments!

f on my wedding day, but Engy and Destiny nailed the natural look I was hoping for. On the wedding day we also made quite a few changes from the look I requested at the trial, and the adjustments were perfectly done. Seriously, my wedding day was the first time I’ve worn makeup and was like “oh, I get it now!!” It looked SO good, and they also achieved the bouncy blowout style I wanted for hair, even though my hair is only medium length. THANK YOU for making me feel so beautiful!

Beauty Sway did a beautiful job with hair and makeup for my bridal party and me on my wedding day. Communication with Engy was fabulous when scheduling, getting recommendations for...
products and other services, like facials, and when she was actually doing the makeup. She truly cares about making it a great experience for her clients.
On my wedding day, Engy did makeup, and Luz did our hair. Everyone looked gorgeous. Engy made sure our makeup lasted through crying, eating, drinking, and sweating. I think I touched up my lips once and didn’t even need to use the rest of the provided touch up kit. Luz was able to work with multiple hair lengths and thickness levels to do both updos and partial updos. Mine lasted through lots of dancing and jumping up and down!
I highly recommend these very professional and talented women to anyone who wants a great experience!

. Engy took time not only on my wedding day but before in education of my skin/skincare routine and talking through what to/and what not to use. Engy helped me feel so beautiful inside and out (and my bridal party). She was professional, timely, thorough in communication and also so so kind. Highly recommend her and her business!

Engy and her team came to the rescue when my original makeup artist bailed with my deposit. From the first time we met at the Indy Wedding Expo; she was a true professional. Engy i...
s cool, calm, and collected which is exactly what you need on your special day.
She listened to my exact desires at my trial and replicated the look again wonderfully on the day of. I was 4 months post-partum on my wedding day and was so worried I wouldn’t feel beautiful. That was certainly not the case, Engy and her team made me look and feel like a queen. My hair and makeup were flawless and held up all day/night! She even included a touch up kit with my shade of gloss to reapply through the day.
I would 100% recommend Beauty Sway for any of your beauty needs, not just bridal! Beauty Sway slays!!
Response from Beauty Sway
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Lola! We’re truly honored that we could step ...
in and be a part of your special day. It means so much to hear that you felt like a queen, especially after such a challenging time post-partum. We’re thrilled that your hair and makeup held up perfectly and that the touch-up kit came in handy! It was a pleasure working with you, and we appreciate your recommendation from the bottom of our hearts. Wishing you all the best, and we’d love to be there for any of your future beauty needs!

tears of joy.
Engy did my makeup while her assistant Luz worked on my hair. Both of them were extremely professional, kind, and hygienic throughout the entire process. My event had an unusually early start time around noon on a weekday due to the eclipse, but Beauty Sway took my needs in stride and came to me early enough to have me completely ready on time. They even gave me a little kit for any required touch-ups throughout the day!
I can't recommend their services enough! Thank you so much Engy and Luz for making me feel gorgeous on the best day of my life!!!
