I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Haneen from Hair by Haneen. Her communication was flawless, always available with questions from the moment I hired her to my wedding day. She was professional but so friendly I felt I'd known her forever. I was nervous to say the least but she reassured me every step of the way by showing me step by step what she was doing and seeking my approval before moving on. My hair and makeup was complimented all evening. Haneen is your girl for any event.

My experience with Haneen was so much better than I could’ve hoped for - she’s the best! I wanted relatively simple makeup and to keep my naturally curly hair texture in a half updo, and she really listened and beautifully adapted my inspiration to my specific needs (colors, undertones, etc.). She is also the sweetest human! Highly recommend!!

Haneen was an absolute rockstar. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who wants to look their best on their big day. My whole bridal party was blown away with the results. As a ...
family of fine-haired women who don’t wear a lot of makeup regularly, Haneen made every single one of use look so good & comfortable. My hair & makeup help up all night through LOTS of moving around and sweat. I wish I could take her with me everywhere!

Haneen is extremely sweet and talented! She did my hair and 8 of my friends for my wedding. She also traveled to my hotel for a make up trial and for the wedding day, which was a S...
unday. The make up trial was extremely helpful and she took my notes to make my final look absolutely perfect and made me feel Like a glam version of my natural self. We did not do a hair trial, but she totally understood my vision and executed it beautifully. Extra bonus she was so kind and a pleasure to work with! Highly recommend!!

I cannot recommend Haneen enough! She did my bridal hair along with 10 other women on my wedding day, all by herself, and every single one of us loved our look. She really listened...
to what each person wanted and made sure we all felt beautiful and confident before she left. I was nervous about hiring someone I didn’t personally know before, but Haneen instantly put me at ease and by the end of the day it felt like we were friends. She was so easy to communicate with leading up to the big day, came fully prepared, and was incredibly reliable. She truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. I am so grateful to have had her as part of my wedding and would book her again in a heartbeat!
She even made it so I had a second look!

my wedding that took place in Maine last weekend. The booking process was seamless, the trial went beautifully and on the day of, Haneen came to our airbnb to make all the magic happen! I was a blubbering mess the entire day (so many emotions) and she was so sweet and patient with me. It really helped to calm me down! My hair came out beautiful and makeup was on point, looked great in all levels of light and stayed on perfectly! Could not have felt any more beautiful! She also did an amazing job on my sister and mother (mom said she felt like a princess herself! Thank you so much!

My wife and I just had our wedding on 6/20/25 and we had Haneen as our hair and makeup team. Words cannot describe how grateful we are for her. We had an early start time and there...

She is the absolute best hands-down. I just had my trial done by her and she is so personable. She totally makes you feel comfortable. She ask you each step of the way if you’re ha...
ppy with it if not, she’ll change it. I have never met such a down to earth wonderful person like her before. I consider her now my friend. She’s so humble and welcoming. I was extremely nervous about having my hair and makeup done and she made me feel so comfortable and listen to all my ideas and thoughts. She was extremely spot on on what I was looking for. I have talked to numerous make up artist and every single one of them have told me that what I want is unachievable and that no make up artist could do it. They were 100% wrong because Haneen’s made it happen. I’m so honored to be able to have her do my hair and make up because I know it’s going to come out absolutely beautiful. If you want somebody that is personable and will listen to your ideas and thoughts. And is extremely patient. You definitely want to go with her. She is absolutely amazing. Thank you you so much.

Haneen and her assistant were pleasant and do amazing work. I have curly african hair and the two other trials I did they didn't know how to do black hair but it turned out perfect...
ly with Haneen. I was so relieved too, as the bride, to have some experienced with deeper skin. My bridesmaids looked amazing too but I was less concerned about their fair skin and straight hair. I just felt so beautiful.
