Cheryl was perfect! I've had and seen some BAD wedding makeup as a bridesmaid in other weddings, but Bianca and her assistant made myself, mom, and bridesmaids -- of various skin types and ethnicities — all look gorgeous. We went for a natural look, and nothing was overly caked on or done - just everyone looking their absolute best but still looking and feeling like themselves. I also have very sensitive skin, and I had zero skin issues with her high quality personal makeup line. She also had some of the most reasonable prices for bridesmaids, which was an extra bonus for my wedding party in keeping their costs down. I'd happily have her do my makeup in the future!
CHERYL IS AN ABSOLUTE MAGICIAN, A WIZARD!!! I hired her for makeup/hair for my wedding and I didn’t even know I could look this good lol. She transformed me and my bridesmaids. It was so fantastic. Cheryl has such a bubbly fun spirit and was so helpful in recreating the vision I had based off a bunch of Pinterest photos I showed her. She made the whole experience so fun and she was able to do all looks from natural look to full glam!
I had Cheryl that day and holy cow, she's amazingly talented and so sweet. She made me feel so beautiful and I never dreamed my hair could look so good. Best part? It stayed all night! You won't find better.
Cheryl is an absolute gem and an expert at what she does. I could not believe I was lucky enough to secure her to do my hair and makeup for my wedding. I can honestly say I have never felt more beautiful in my life as on that day. I came to Honolulu from Canada and chose Cheryl just from her amazing pictures online. I got a trial two days before the wedding at Cheryl's in home studio. She was so sweet and welcoming and I felt totally comfortable and confident with her on my wedding day. She is professional, friendly, made everyone in my party feel at ease and most importantly, she is right on time which is so essential when you have a tight timeline. I wish I could have Cheryl do my hair and makeup for all of the events in my life and I hope that I will return to Honolulu and see her again!
Cheryl & her makeup team were my first and only choice when it came to booking hair and makeup for my wedding. I had been in contact with them for the 2 years of planning. Ipo handled every single e-mail and question I asked and she was amazing.
I was able to schedule a hair & makeup trial the day before my wedding & I’m so glad I did because I was initially going to go into HMU the day of my wedding blind and not knowing what I wanted.
During my HMU trial, Cheryl made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. She has such a vivid and fun personality! The way we talked made me feel like I had known her for years already or she was like my “ate” (“big sister” in Tagalog)!
I also normally freak out when anyone comes at my eyes with anything and for some reason, I didn’t freak out at all. ESPECIALLY when it came to applying the lashes. She was SO quick with it I didn’t even have time to freak out.
The day of my wedding, Cheryl, Ipo, & Crystal came on time and got all of us (7 in total) done in a systematic fashion. They were all so funny and that helped me calm my nerves. I was SO happy with my hair & makeup. My makeup felt so light and stayed on through all the crying and sweating I did and she even provided me with a touchup kit! My hair did frizz up, but that’s just my hair and even the strongest spray couldn’t stop my hair from frizzing LOL. But everyone looked perfect. No one’s makeup was too heavy or too light.
Also, they were able to send another MUA to another hotel where I had 3 other family members requiring HMU.
Cheryl & her team listen to you and don’t try to force more makeup on you if you don’t want it. They provide their opinions and you can basically tell them yes/no!
They are all so amazing and I would 100% recommend Cheryl & her team for anyone needed HMU services.
I can’t say enough about Cheryl. She is just so incredibly talented!! I don’t usually wear a lot of make-up, but I obviously wanted to look flawless in my wedding photos, so Cheryl worked with me to get that full-coverage/airbrushed look without feeling or looking like it was caked-on. She also did my hair in this gorgeous and romantic-looking half-up half-down do. I highly recommend her!
I am so happy that I chose Cheryl and her team to do our hair and makeup! They are hands down the best at what they do! She is SO nice and down-to-earth and really made me feel beautiful on my wedding day. My makeup and hair stayed intact and looked great throughout the whole day! She also gave me a touch-up kit, which really helped in between all the snacks (and drinks) we had throughout the day. Cheryl and her team also did makeup and hair for my 6 bridesmaids, my mom, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law and they all LOVED it! They also were very professional and had everyone's makeup and hair done on time, actually even a little early so we could sneak in a few more minutes of picture taking! I would 100% recommend Cheryl and her team to anyone!
Destination Wedding: 10/4/18
Venue: Haiku Gardens, Kaneohe
As with everything else for our wedding, I (bride) waited until about 4-6 weeks out to seriously look into vendors. How I was lucky enough to secure Cheryl for our wedding day, I'll never know!
Closer to our day, Ipo, a member of her team sent me the timeline for our day of. Prior to our day of, they were so accommodating to some schedule changes at the request of my videographer. Due to our ceremony starting earlier in the morning, Cheryl and her team needed to plan for a 4:45am start (yikes, sorry!). They arrived exactly on time to set up and get started. Everyone was so professional, kind, funny, and easy to talk to. Cheryl gave me the fishtail half up-do of my pinterest dreams!
I did not do a trial as there was not enough time between us flying in from Denver and the wedding day. However, I wasn't worried in the slightest bit. I think the most important thing is that she and her team listened to my/bridesmaids' request when it came to makeup and hair. I told my bridesmaids to pick a hair/makeup look that would make them feel most comfortable and beautiful. We all had some inspo pictures ready and all the looks were achieved.
I would highly recommend Cheryl and her team! My makeup itself lasted the best it could through the heavy humidity that day, my sweaty dancing, and the endless amount of tears. I should also note, my skin already is oily/combination and was in crazy oil production with the fast climate change. The only items that faded were lip product (eating, drinking), and bottom lash shadow (crying...lots of crying...all day).
Thank you Cheryl, you were a dream!
Cheryl and her team are the absolute best MUA in Honolulu! She truly is a master of her craft.
1. She is the sweetest! She gave me the fattest, warmest hug when we first met for my trial.
2. Booking is a breeze and no deposit is required. Be sure to lock down your date with her ASAP though because she books up fast!
3. Communication is always easy and prompt. Ipo is always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Because this team is so hip, everything can be done online, even paying your invoice. A big plus -- they accept credit cards and don't charge a fee for it!
4. She's extremely patient with "faking" it for the camera. We wanted to get in certain shots and Cheryl patiently obliged.
On wedding day, Cheryl arrived early to work her magic before her team trickled in. She set-up within minutes and was ready to beautify us. And beautify us she did! One by one, my bridesmaids, mothers, and I were transformed. The before and after photos are amazing. My makeup didn't feel caked on, but the coverage was so good! It also photographed extremely well. I couldn't have been more pleased.
I swear I wouldn't be one of those sobbing brides. Boy was I wrong. I literally sobbed my entire way down the aisle. Thank goodness I didn't end up with raccoon eyes! In fact, my makeup didn't run AT ALL from the tears and sweat. It was also an outdoor wedding and my makeup remained flawless all night! It also didn't rub off onto others' clothing when I hugged them.
It was so hard removing it at the end of the night, not because the makeup wouldn't come off, but because I just wanna look like that all the time.
Thank you Cheryl and team for your beautiful touch!
Cheryl was out of town for my wedding day, but she sent over one of her amazing stylists, Leesa, in her place.
She nailed it on how I wanted my whole look to look like and was quick yet professional. My hair and makeup held up the entire day and we had an outdoor ceremony with 2 hours of pictures before dinner!
Fantastic all around! I definitely recommend Cheryl and her team of stylists!
Cheryl and her team nailed everything myself and my bridal party wanted! Both my hair and makeup lasted all night, which was a surprise since we had an outdoor wedding. They were so fun and really set the tone for our perfect day.
Cheryl is the best in the business hands down!!! I was a little concerned not having a trial run due to having a destination wedding but as soon as Cherly walked in I was at ease. I had a few ideas but was a 100% sure on what I wanted and she just went with it. Do not look any further you will not regret hiring her it will be the easiest decision you make!!! She has her own makeup line that is amazing so you can purchase whatever she uses on you. Hire her already!!!
I love Cheryl! Everything (and everyone) turned out absolutely gorgeous. Cheryl and her assistant were on time and even finished early despite 2 last minute additions to hair and makeup. I did not have a trial but she made sure there was extra time to change anything if need be. NO CHANGES needed! I loved my look and everyone turned out better that imagined. They were so sweet and fun. I recommend in a heartbeat.
Thank you so much Cheryl!
I had such a great experience getting my hair and makeup done for my wedding. They came to our house and just made it such a fun time for me and my girls getting ready. They really understood how I wanted to look and made me feel beautiful on my wedding day!! Such a pleasure to work with.
Boy was I thrilled with Cheryl's work on my wedding day. Hair and makeup work was stunning. My makeup stayed the whole day through sweat and tears. What I loved most about Cheryl was that she didn't nickel-and-dime her customers for early arrival, eyelashes, etc. Scheduling was easy, and she even gave a touch-up kit for free. It was such a joy to work with her.
Your search for the best hair and makeup artists in Hawaii is over! Cheryl and her team are amazing! I cannot say enough good things about them.
First of all, Cheryl is the sweetest person ever and she is so easy to work with! Cheryl already had a wedding booked for the day of my wedding, so she enlisted the help of her wonderful team, Katie and Star.
They did a beautiful job! My bridesmaids and I looked GORGEOUS! Cheryl has her own makeup line called Cherbu. It made us all look flawless.
I absolutely loved the way I looked on my big day. After seeing myself in the mirror, I was ready to walk down the aisle. I wish I could hire them to do my hair and makeup everyday! And their work is groom-approved... Trust me, he will not be able to keep his eyes off of you :)
Looking at my wedding pictures everyday and i can´t Thank Cheryl enough for the awesome and easy going art she did on me and my Party. Guests friends and the whole family keep complimenting how beautiful, strong but natural the make up was. Not only was her work smooth and awesome. Her make up reflex Cheryls personality. I was attached to her the first time i saw her. Great and fun to be with. SUPER Nice and i thank her from the bottom of my heart for being part of my wedding! MAHALO ATE!
- try out! -awesome and fun
- she´s on time
- you can rely on her
- nice
- LOVE HER!
Cheryl is pure magic! She gets back to you so quickly and is really easy to work with. I asked her if I should book a trial appointment before my wedding and she told me I was welcome to do so but she guaranteed I'd be happy with my make-up without one. Bold statement I thought, and sure enough, on the day of my wedding Cheryl put together my hair and make-up perfectly. She has an iPad so that you can choose the exact hairstyle and make-up that you want. Brilliant! I've worked with a lot of make-up artists over the years and I can tell you that Cher is the very best! Not only is she professional and talented, but she's extremely positive which is so important energy to have around you on your special day.
I hired Cheryl after reading great reviews on her from The Knot. I live in California and was having the wedding in Hawaii so I was really nervous to hire someone I found on the internet. I contacted Cheryl and set up a trial when I was scheduled to visit Hawaii. When I met Cheryl she was very personable and understood the look I was going for. She and her assistant did my hair and Cheryl did my makeup. I absolutely loved it all. She was able to duplicate the look on my wedding day. I receives a number of compliments on my wedding day. I loved Cheryl's work, she was very flexible to my million last minute schedule changes. Her and her assistants were able to do 15 ladies hair and makeup on time. Cheryl only charged about $120 for hair and makeup because I had such a large party.
My husband and I flew to hawaii to do a romantic wedding with just the two of us. Cheryl did my hair and make up, she came to the hotel and dolled me up. She is extremely personoble and makes you feel relaxed. She gave me a touch up kit incase I needed it ( I didn't! My hair and makeup remained flawless all the way to the following morning). I never felt more beautiful then I did on my wedding day. I highly recommend Cheryl to every bride! She made my wedding dreams come true.
I spent only 5 weeks planning a very small wedding in Ko Olina, Oahu. Given the tight planning schedule and not being a resident of Hawai’i, it was challenging to select reputable vendors, such as a florist and makeup artist. When I began my search for a makeup artist, I read several reviews and searched through many photos. Ultimately, I hired Cheryl based on her reviews on The Knot….and I could not be happier with my decision.
Cheryl and her assistant (Katie) did an awesome job! Cheryl did my hair and makeup, as well as the makeup for my maid of honor. Katie did the hair for my maid of honor and mother of the bride. Everyone looked so beautiful.
Cheryl was such a joy to work with. I did not schedule a trial session, but Cheryl made the process so easy. Not having a trial is extremely risky, but Cheryl was confident that she could make it work. And it did! Cheryl has so much experience and knew exactly what would work with my skin complexion and bone structure. She also encouraged me to be open with her about what I liked and did not like. While it is common for a bride to be stressed out the morning of her wedding day, Cheryl helped to put me at ease. She really cared :)
I am so grateful to have found Cheryl via The Knot. She gets my highest recommendation. If you are planning to get married in Hawai’i, you must hire Cheryl!
About 5 months ago, I started looking for makeup/hair artists on yelp. During the search, I found Cheryl, who had wonderful reviews on yelp. I emailed Cheryl for an inquiry. However, I was hesitant about booking with Cheryl because I didn't hear back from her until two weeks later. However, I still decided to give it a try, which I am very glad that I did. When the date got closer, Cheryl emailed me with a timeline that she had set up for me, my 2 bridesmaids, my mom + mother-in-law. We had to make some revisions, but Cheryl made it really simple!
Finally, I arrived in Honolulu on Oct. 20 (my wedding was on the 25th). I booked my trial session with Cheryl just three days before the wedding. Cheryl was so welcoming and friendly yet very professional with her services. She made me feel relaxed that I was able to trust and leave my makeup/hair designs up to her. Cheryl's makeup skills are so professional and wonderful. As an Asian girl, she was able to bring out my features very well w/o overdoing.
Fast forward to the wedding day. Cheryl and her hair stylist, Monica, arrived at our hotel at 6:30am. Monica did all the moms and bridesmaids hair. Cheryl did all the makeup plus my hair + makeup. Everyone loved their looks, especially my maid of honor. She was so happy with the makeup and hair that she really wants to hire Cheryl to be her makeup artist for her upcoming wedding in Cali! Lol, considering expenses, she gave up on the idea. Anyway, I loved everything that Cheryl did for me on my wedding day. She even showed my MOH how to pin and remove the veil and the flowers for my hair. The MOST INCREDIBLE thing to mention is that Cheryl has her own line of makeup, Cherbu. Her makeup is absolutely amazing! My photographer was so impressed because when I had my portrait shootings under the scorching sun, my makeup did NOT melt AT ALL!! No eyeliner or mascara smears even hours later. You will not regret booking Cheryl as your makeup/hair artist!!!!
PS. My mom loved my makeup. She said that Cheryl did enough makeup to make me look great for photography, yet did not make me look like a different person.
Cheryl was extremely easy to work with, friendly, fun, and did a fantastic job on my hair and makeup for my wedding. Good price too, especially with the yelp deal. Her good ratings, reviews, and good price is what attracted me to select her. I wasn't sure how it would go since I selected her purely from what I found online, but I was very pleased to find that the reviews were very accurate. Definitely recommend her and would go with her again if I ever needed pro hair and makeup in the future.
Cheryl is amazing! I was planning my wedding from another state so I relied a lot on recommendations and wedding sites. I emailed her first and set up a consultation when I returned home. Hit it off instantly. She's so talented and so personable. She really found the perfect style and look for my wedding day. She helped me set up a timeline for getting ready that I could coordinate with my planner. Day of, she was short her assistant but she managed to do my MOH and my hair and makeup perfectly. She really made us look amazing. Cheryl was always professional, responded to my emails quickly and was just such a joy to work with. I only wish I had more occasions to work with her!
Cheryl and her team were fantastic to work with. They arrived early on the day and put us at ease immediately with great conversation and many laughs. There were six ladies and two flower girls having hair and makeup done on the day and Cheryl and her team were very obliging and fulfilled each and every request. Every lady was extremely happy with the results! Having organised the wedding purely online from Sydney, Australia, it was always going to be a risk. However, I have nothing but praise for Cheryl. I would highly recommend her services. You will not be disappointed!
Cheryl was amazing!!
After reading the amazing reviews online, I contacted Cheryl from Australia by email. She was super fast at replying to me and was happy to give me ideas and make up styles for my wedding day. I sent her photos of make up and hairstyles that were professionally done and Cher was confident and so happy to do anything.
I arrived in Hawaii from Australia and emailed Cher to confirm our booking. No probs at all and we met at my hotel room on the wedding day. Cher arrived with her lovely assistant early and were so friendly and made me feel at ease. It was just like hanging out with the girls! Cher and her assistant got stuck in with the hair and makeup, I actually couldn't believe how fast she finished and how amazingly beautiful she made me look.
My bridesmaid was a little fussy with her hair and chers assistant was more that happy to change it up for her (about 4 times haha).
Out make up was completed and looked so good :) Cher left me a touch up kit and made sure we were all !
My photographer said I look like a model and should be in a magazine!
Thank you Cher (sorry this took so long to write) I will get in touch when I'm back in Hawaii for a catch up xx
Cheryl was amazing! She was so friendly and professional! We all loved are make-up!
I organised my Hawaiian wedding in Australia and booked Cheryl Hazelgrove for my bridal hair and make up based on the outstanding online reviews I had read about her. It turned out that everything I had read online was absolutely correct as Cheryl was incredible and truly made me feel and look beautiful on my special day.
Cheryl always responded very promptly to my e-mails and was very organised with her questions and providing me with a timeline so everything was arranged before my wedding day.
I had a trial with Cheryl a couple of days before my wedding. Cheryl is so warm and friendly that she put me at ease immediately and it was so much fun to see her transform me. I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted but as soon as Cheryl did my hair and make up I knew that was what I wanted.
On the day of the wedding Cheryl came to my hotel room at the Hilton Hawaiian Village with two assistants. As my wedding was small all the female guests were having their hair and make up done so there was 7 of us in total. Cheryl organised everything perfectly and monitored the timing as she did everyone's make up. It was such a fun day and I was really relaxed and I believe this is due in large to Cheryl and her team's professionalism and friendliness.
I loved my hair and make up and as other people have stated in their reviews, the false eyelashes make everyone look that extra glamorous and are a must! It was so exciting to see my family getting all glammed up by a professional make up artist and we all took turns admiring how amazing each other looked.
My make up lasted the entire day even though it was a very hot 35' Celsius and an outdoor wedding.
I cannot speak highly enough of Cheryl and if you are looking for a talented hair and make up artist who is also an extremely kind and funny woman, you have found what you are looking for in Cheryl Hazelgrove.
Cheryl, you made my wife look even more stunning( if even possible) for our daughters wedding. Thank you, Rob Listy
Cheryl, is truly an outstanding make-up artist! I look back at the pictures of my daughters wedding and I believe I look beautiful! Make make-up and eye lashes were PERFECT!
Thanks you awesome lady!
Before I review Cheryl, a word of advice to brides: Don't do what I did when it comes to selecting your hair/makeup artist! I got a recommendation from a friend, checked out the artist's website, thought the pictures looked okay (not great, but okay), then booked my trial just a few weeks before the wedding. Whoops! Did the trial and was totally disappointed. She didn't do anything I asked and my makeup looked like something I could have done by myself. So bummed. And I had to deal with the added stress of finding a new hair/makeup artist right before the wedding! Eek! So the lesson is: do your homework/research and be sure to do a trial with enough time to book someone else if needed!
In comes Cheryl. I luckily found her on Yelp! and saw that she had amazing reviews. Her photos were also spectacular! It was clear that she was a professional and brides had nothing but wonderful things to say - not only about her work, but her personality as well. I emailed Cheryl and she wrote back, saying she would be able to squeeze me in! I sent her some photos and got some advice. Her emails and texts immediately put me at ease, which is SO important for brides right before the big day.
On the day of, she showed up with her assistant right on time. They started to set up, got going on my hair, and BOOM! Power at the hotel goes out. I ain't even playing. No. Power. Meaning, no way to heat up curling irons or hot rollers, and most importantly - NO AIR CONDITIONING. IN AUGUST. IN HAWAII. But Cheryl and her assistant were amazing, even in the sweltering heat. They stayed calm, which kept me calm (more or less), and did the makeup for my sister, mom, MOH, and me. My wonderful friends were able to get a generator and brought it to the hotel, so Cheryl's hair assistant plugged in her tools and got started. At the end of it all, we looked fantastic! And Cheryl's awesome, bubbly personality kept us all in good spirits throughout the power outage. By the time she left, it felt like I had made a new friend in Cheryl. I should also mention that the power came back on right when we were leaving the hotel. Go figure.
My hair and makeup did not budge during photos, the ceremony, and the reception. It was incredibly hot and humid that day - our ceremony was outside, we took photos by the water, and our reception site was also really warm. But our hair and makeup looked stellar all night long! And the pictures - oh, the pictures. Cheryl really knows how to do makeup that photographs well. She is professional, friendly, courteous, and incredibly talented. Hire her!
Wow, where do I even start? I was lucky to stumble across Cheryl by Yelp reviews. Her reviews were amazing and I decided to send her an email. I live on the mainland and I had a destination wedding in Hawaii. Trying to plan a wedding overseas is stressful enough and having to worry and fret about your make up as a bride...Even worse, but she replied immediately and gave me the breakdown about her services. She included a touch up kit and lashes all within her price. I was so happy to hear that. And she said she could do my moms hair and make up as well. Cheryl then began sending me pictures showing me different looks she could offer. I was super nervous to get my self done up on my wedding day without doing a preview, but I decided to go for it anyways. And boy, I am sure lucky I did. The minute my mother and I stepped into Cheryls beautiful home she welcomed us with a hugs, laughter and delicious Hawaiian chocolate. She was very eager to please and so caring towards people she had just met. Honestly, she makes you feel like you have been friends forever. I had cancelled my mothers appointment last minute because she is very particular about her hair and makeup, but the minute she saw Cheryls work on me, she asked if Cheryl had the time to do hers. Usually, there was an extra fee to add services the day off, but she didn't charge us nor seem upset that we changed our minds once again. She is such a super hip chick that really listens to what you want. And if you have an issue with the way she styled you (which I doubt ANYONE would) she did whatever she could to fix it and make you happy. I looked at her makeup products and asked her why she had so much, turns out this woman has her own makeup line! And she has traveled everywhere. For a woman with so much experience and professional background she was so down to earth and so sweet. I would recommend Cheryl to anyone and everyone. If you really want someone who genuinely cares about you as a woman and wants you to feel beautiful go to her! I got numerous compliments on my wedding day from numerous strangers. I was in the hot Hawaiian sun and my makeup remained perfect all day and all night. She has wonderful product and techniques. I have had my makeup done by numerous professionals like Mac and artists, but I was never satisfied... And I will come to Cheryl for business again and again, I would be crazy not too!
I recently eloped at the Kahala and hired Cheryl based on her yelp reviews and pictures. Since it was a small affair I opted to skip the trial run (which I would totally suggest doing if you're having a full blown wedding). But for my purposes it worked out perfectly! Cheryl was super busy juggling weddings but made good time to make it to my Kahala suite and do both my hair and makeup. I had some vague ideas in mind but really depended on her iPad of sample photos to find the look I wanted. I normally wear light makeup so I wanted something more dramatic than the normal wedding makeup (light and natural) and she came through for me. I loved it and my (now) hubby almost cried seeing me for the first time (which made ME cry lol). Thank goodness everything she has is not oily, waterproof, and I absolutely love that she gives an extra baggy of goods for me to retouch my lipstick or fix that shiny nose. And I need to emphasize - the fake lashes... OMGOSH it made ALL the difference in the world. Even if you're getting light makeup, DO THE LASHES. It really makes your eyes pop, especially for photos. And my hair was a bit complicated because it's blonde ombre highlights on black but luckily, homegirl has the same hairstyle! I know I wanted braids and curls and she made it perfectly matched. Thanks again Cheryl!!
Cheryl was so great to work with for my wedding. She really understood what I wanted as a bride and made it happen!
I came to Hawaii to get married and Cheryl did my hair and make up...LOVED HER!! She did an excellent job on both and I highly recommend her. I showed her a pic of how I wanted my hair styled and she was able to create it with no problems. I wasn't too sure on how I wanted to do my makeup, but she had pics on hand and I was able to choose that way.
I also loved that she was on time and very professional not to mention a very sweet lady. She transformed me into the beautiful bride I was destined to be. I would DEFINATELY use her again if I ever have the need.
Cheryl Hazelgrove is an amazing makeup artist! She did my hair and makeup for my wedding and I could not have been happier with how it all turned out. My hair and makeup lasted through the ceremony, hours of photography and dinner and drinks after. I looked as fresh at the end of the night as I did at the beginning. She is not only a lovely and fun person, but she has a real eye for what makeup and hairstyle will work best for you on your big day. She is a true professional and is so easy to work with. I had a blast working with her and was sad when I had to say goodbye. She makes you feel special and unique. She listens to your ideas and goals and ends up providing you with a look that is better than what you asked for. She knows what features should be accented and what colors will work best for you and asks lots of questions to make sure you are comfortable with all aspects of the process. I received so many compliments on my makeup and hair! I have worked with a lot of makeup artists in my career and she is by far the best one I have worked with. She also has her own makeup line that is amazing. I loved her makeup so much that I am planning on buying some for everyday use. I would recommend Cheryl for your wedding or any event you want to look your best. You will not be disappointed!
Cheryl and her assistant were amazing! I hired Cheryl a couple of months beforehand, based on her portfolio and reviews online. She corresponded with me via email, and was always prompt in responding, and trying to work with me on what I wanted. I didn't book a consultation because I was so confident with her pictures and reviews, and because I had a destination wedding, so time was very limited the days leading up to the big day. I kept having to change the number of hair and makeup jobs, all the way up until 12 hours before she was supposed to come to the hotel, and she was completely accommodating and so nice about it.
I knew what I wanted for my hair and makeup and showed Cheryl pictures, and she replicated it perfectly! I can't say enough how perfect my hair and makeup was, it was exactly what I had imagined for my wedding. She made all the ladies in my party look so beautiful, and I would recommend her to anyone!
All I can say is that I am so glad that I found Cheryl! The wedding party and guests were coming from all over the world. I appreciate the positive reviews about Cheryl not knowing who I should hire to do the brides makeup. I wanted the bride to look stunning and her makeup to last all day long and into the evening. Well Cheryl made that happen!! Not only did the bride look amazing, Cheryl equipped the bride with a makeup touch up kit in case there was need to touch up throughout the day. What I loved about Cheryl is how professional she was. She got back to me right away to make appointment for the bride and she was extremely friendly and made the bride comfortable. I would highly recommend Cheryl as a makeup artist. You can't go wrong. Sheila Wright
I had a destination wedding and had to plan from afar. I booked a month before my wedding and Cheryl remained helpful and responsive through out the whole process.
She did my make up and someone else did my hair. I absolutely loved my make up and also got a touch up kit for the rest of my day. She had someone else do my hair, and she was unfortunately in a rush and didn't put my veil or tiara on. Cheryl did try to secure the veil to my hair but it came off during the ceremony. I don't blame her as I don't expect her to have any hair pins or anything like that in her kit.
My bridesmaid also got her hair and make up done and looked awesome. I give Cheryl a 10 for beautiful make up, timeliness, personality and flexibility!
I had a destination wedding (live in SoCal, wedding in Hawaii) so I didn't have any recommendations from friends. I had a package deal for my wedding and they had a recommended artist but I wanted to see my options. I found Cheryl's website and saw her photos, reviews, and the awards she won and definitely wanted to go with her. I contacted her via email and booked my date!
She was super friendly and professional. she was on-time at 6:30am and finished early enough to give us time to get to the ceremony on time. She was able to take care of parking on her own at the Hilton Hawaiian Village (which charges guests $8 for the first 30 min and then bumps up to $27 after the half hr).
Life was super hectic and busy leading up to my wedding so I didn't get a chance to give her an idea of what style I wanted. Based on the portfolios she had readily available, I was able to pick a hair and make-up style but wasn't completely sure. She did a great job figuring out what I wanted and then doing it. My hair was so awesome!
I also had a bridesmaid who didn't know what she wanted and was WAY off in what she wanted (think EDM / Rave make-up) but Cheryl was so polite in meeting her half way w/the colors my bridesmaid wanted but not making it look like she was going to a rave (based on a photo my bridesmaid picked).
I normally don't wear make-up but for this very special day, i decided to do it. I was not used to it at first but she said the make-up would look "less" in the photos and it did.
The coolest thing is that when I was taking my make-up off at around 10-11pm that night, my make-up looked exactly the same, despite the long day, super hot and humid weather from Waimanalo to Waikiki, and then going through the airport hustle and bustle from Oahu to Kauai at night. I couldn't believe my eye shadow hadn't smeared (normally i get some kind of crease junk) but whatever primer stuff she used kept my whole make-up intact.
Cheryl was the best!! She was so professional and easy to work with. I didn't do a trial run for my wedding hair and make up. I just took a leap of faith and she did perfect! I gave her an idea of what I wanted and she made it come to life and I never felt more beautiful than that day! She was so sweet and made the day fun. Can't say enough good things about her!
I wanted to look glamorous for my March 2014 Hawaii wedding. Cheryl came highly recommended to me by one of my good friends. I had my wedding hair/makeup trial with her in September of last year, since I was going to attend a wedding that same day. Might as well look all done up with a place to go! She did exactly as I asked. Hair half up, half down and smoky eye makeup. I was complimented throughout the day. When I got back to San Diego and went through my photos, however, I decided that I didn't want my hair that way after all and also didn't want my makeup that smoky. I changed my mind on my whole wedding look. I thought she was going to kill me when I asked for a second trial. Instead, she was so patient and helpful. I booked the second trial for January 2014, the night of my bachelorette party. This time I wanted big bombshell hair and lighter makeup. I went out that night and once again received a ton of compliments. When I got back home to San Diego and looked back at the pics, I couldn't believe how good my hair looked! It was absolutely perfect! As for my makeup, I let her know I wanted to try a different look. Not as light- more dramatic. I'm surprised she didn't fire ME. She said that was fine, so I had one more eye makeup trial the week before my wedding.
Let me tell you- it was worth me nitpicking myself. It was exactly what I wanted! At my wedding, she made me look absolutely gorgeous! She brought her team, who helped with my bridesmaids' make up and hair. They're already pretty girls, but they looked even more beautiful. Two of the bridesmaids had never had fake lashes before and it made such a difference in their look! Not to mention my 9 year old niece. She put curls in her hair, eye glitter, and lipgloss, all complimentary. She felt and looked like a little princess.
Cheryl was not only extremely professional during my whole "mini bridezilla" ordeal, but she was so kind and personable as well. I am grateful I found a makeup artist who was so accommodating to my somewhat diva nature- I know I'm not the easiest person to deal with! It was fun to work with her. She contributed to the joy of my wedding day! I will definitely see her again when I have an event in Hawaii!
Cheryl was absolutely awesome! I was really worried because I've never been successful in having a stylist understand what I'm going for or share my vision - Cheryl and her team were not only fun but embraced my requests and made me look and feel amazing on my big day. I wouldn't recommend any other make-up artist or stylist on Oahu!
I planned our wedding from Australia not knowing what to expect from any of our vendors. Planning a wedding from overseas can always be a little nerve racking and pictures online can sometimes be deceiving.
I chose Cheryl as my hair/makeup specialist as she was voted #1 on "The Knot", owned her own beauty product line and her pictures and reviews were great. I still wasn't too sure what to expect, however, Cheryl was so kind and made it all a breeze. She was always prompt to get back to me, go over hairstyles/makeup with me, send photos, etc. When I actually met her in person I fell in love with her, she's just an amazing person, so professional yet so free spirited and all of my bridal party just loved her and her assistant. She made me feel so incredibly beautiful!
All of our family and friends commented on how amazing my hair and makeup looked! She exceeded my expectations. Not only does she do amazing work, she does it at an affordable price and was very flexible on the day with bridesmaids changing their minds to get it all done.
Believe me, you get MORE than what you pay for with her! I highly recommend her to every bride/bridesmaid/mother or friends. Cheryl, thank you so much for making me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world on my wedding day xx!!
I have recently used Cheryl Hazelgrove's services for my event and I am so happy that I did! She was so awesome and helped make everything wonderful. I totally recommend her for hair and make up on such a momentous day.
If I had one Word to describe Cheryl, It's "AMAZING". She did a wonderful job with make up on me and my girls. Everyone was very happy with how they looked. We all felt like beautiful princesses. Her and her crew with hair and makeup did wonders. She is very professional and very caring and personal. She doesn't make you feel rushed and she really LISTENS to what each of us wanted. To me that's so important, to bring out our own individuality. She made all of us feel so comfortable, without any worries. On your special day you don't want any worries, and with Cheryl, everything from being on time to her quality of work, it was AWESOME!
Cheryl and Lessa were wonderful hair and make-up artists. I showed Cheryl a picture of a vintage hair style which was something I pulled off the internet from Pinterest and she made my hair look just like the picture. To the last curl, seriously. She was very enthusiastic and personable when it came to doing my trial and day-of wedding. My two bridesmaids were also getting their hair done by Lessa and make-up by Cheryl. The timeline they estimated was more than enough time for them to set-up and have us ready on-time. I loved my hair and make-up the day of the wedding because it lasted all day. Honestly, the only thing I really had to re-touch were my lips. With the Hawaiian weather and climate it lasted the entire day. OH and my hair, was an up-do, with the wind blowing by the beach...it stayed intact :) I definitely recommend Cheryl and Lessa for any special occasion to any of my friends and relatives. Thank you ladies for making us look beautiful and flawless on my wedding day.
I could not be happier to have chosen Cheryl to be my makeup and hair stylist on the day of my wedding! I have always been good at applying my own makeup so I knew it would be difficult to find a makeup artist that would completely blow me away with their talent. I actually went through many trials with other makeup artists before I finally had my trial with Cheryl a week before my wedding! I was absolutely blown away and sooo relieved to know that she was available! Not only is she very talented, but she is so fast at responding to any texts and emails, she is so personable and fun, and really just lightens the mood of everyone around her. I was hesitant to choose her as my makeup artist at first since a lot of her pictures seemed to showcase her models with a lot of makeup, and I didn't want to look like I was wearing so much makeup on my wedding. However, her skills are very versatile and I was impressed with how beautifully she was able to apply darker makeup while still looking natural. I can honestly say that she is the best on the island. I really felt like I looked the most beautiful I ever have in my life, and every girl deserves that on her wedding day!
Great great service!!! She was very kind with her partner they were both great provided excellent service for my wife and I and my sister and my mom they took there time no rushing very gentle with everything I am so happy and so was my family and wife they said you all did a amazing job and i wouldnt mind having you again Thank you Cheryl again !!!
I was so happy with the makeup and hair Cheryl did for my wedding. She was absolutely great. She knew so many tips and tricks and made me look more beautiful than I ever thought possible, It was hard not to cry (and ruin my fresh makeup) when I saw myself in the mirror! My hair looked wonderful too and stayed put all night... She even gave me a little lip gloss and powder, bobby pins, etc to carry to touch up. She was patient and listened to everything I said about how I wanted to look and made it happen perfectly. I could have asked for more!
