Flynn and her team are awesome! They made my wedding weekend a joy, and I was never worried about how I would look the entire weekend. Flynn herself is incredibly warm, friendly, professional, and fun! I had Faith for hair, and we had two other artists with us for the wedding day, and each team member embodied the same positive, happy energy.
For me, it was important to be surrounded by happy, positive, and professional energy with each of our wedding vendors because I knew I'd be spending a very important day/weekend with them in a very intimate setting. I would hire Makeup by Flynn 10/10 times, and I have friends who are now getting married and planning to book them!

I booked hair for a NYE wedding with her team. I’m not at all from the area but her team seemed amazing given the credits on Vogue and Bazaar. She was extremely quick to follow up about paying right away. On the day of the event, I hadn’t heard from her and emailed her first thing to follow up on when the stylist would arrive. I reattempted emails, tried calling, instagram message. Finally, 30 min before my event she said she forgot to put me on her calendar. At that point, any attempts to rectify the issue would have costed our attendance. I had to make my husband run to a store to get products to do something myself. While I appreciate her paying me back, I felt really disrespected. She took my payment but wasn’t considerate of my travel and time let alone need for help in an area I don’t know. Just because she was featured on Vogue doesn’t mean a non-celebrity doesn’t matter. I paid a lot for her to treat me this way. Appreciate accountability but it doesn’t make it ok by any means. Of note, another NYC artist ghosted me and left me on read before Flynn, so there is clearly some issue with NY stylists not committing well.
response 01/02/2025
Hi Sameera,
I want to sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you've experienced. This ...
situation is unprecedented, and I take full responsibility for the booking mishap.
Each of our clients brides and party attendees alike are viewed as equally valued customers. None is more important than the other, so I would like to stress my sincere apologies for this booking mistake. To make amends, as soon as I realized the error, I immediately issued a full refund and added an inconvenience fee to it. It was never our intention to cause any distress, especially during such an important event as a guest at your friend’s wedding.
I can assure you this will not happen again, and I truly apologize for any stress this situation may have caused.
Any questions?

Flynn was the most incredible MUA for my special day. We had a trial where I explained that I wanted to look like myself but a very glam, elevated version and she did just that! I felt incredible all day. She has a calm and zen demeanor which helped me feel great as I was getting ready. She was upfront about her pricing and referred an incredible hair stylist for me as well. It was a 10/10 experience and I refer every new bride to her that I can!

I highly recommend Makeup by Flynn! I worked with Yana, and she did an absolutely incredible job for my rehearsal dinner and wedding day, making me feel beautiful, confident, and camera-ready.
From the trial session to the big day, Yana was professional, patient, and attentive to every detail. She listened to my vision and gave expert suggestions, ensuring my makeup complemented my dress, theme, and personal style perfectly. The products she used were high-quality and long-lasting—my makeup stayed flawless all day and night, even through happy tears and hours of dancing!
Yana truly went above and beyond, and I’m so grateful for her amazing work to make me feel my best on such an important weekend!

I had the BEST experience with David (makeup) and Faith (hair) from Makeup by Flynn. They both made me feel so comfortable and at ease and are truly the sweetest people. I loved how David made my makeup look polished yet natural. This was super important to me as I don't wear a TON of makeup and still wanted to look like myself. He did the best job. And I loved how my low bun turned out with Faith. It stayed in place the whole night and was exactly what I wanted. They were a dream team!! My family and bridal party raved about them. I would highly highly recommend!

Flynn was incredible to work with! She made everything so easy for me. She aligned me with Marina who would absolutely incredible for Hair & Makeup. My bridesmaids loved their artists too. Flynn was thorough in making her schedule, helping with last minute requests, and all of the artists were on time on the wedding day. All I cared about was really looking like myself still with wedding day makeup and Marina exceeded my expectations. It makes such a big difference when you don't have to stress about hair or makeup the day of and everything just goes smoothly. Thank you Flynn, Marina & team!

Bianca and Brittany incorporated feedback from my makeup and hair trial into the day-of look and I was so thrilled with the end result and photos from the day. Absolutely perfect!

Flynn and her team were simply phenomenal. It was really important to me for my girls and I to feel comfortable on my wedding day and Flynn and her team (Shqipe and Zana) made us all feel so relaxed. It was like we we're all friends. Flynn, Shqipe, and Zana carefully listened to each person's preferences and ensured everyone was happy. They worked efficiently and stayed on pace with my tight timeline, but never made anyone feel rushed or tense. Every single bridesmaid, mother of the bride, mother of the groom, and myself felt so beautiful. Our hair and makeup held up through 12 hours of wedding celebrations. No one felt overdone, but rather the most beautiful version of themselves. Flynn is an excellent communicator and is very organized. I cannot rave enough about her and her team.

Faith (part of the hair team at Flynn Makeup and Hair) was incredible to work with every step of the way! She did hair trials with both me and my mom, and tried multiple looks until both of us were totally happy. She was patient, friendly, on-time, easy to be around, and clearly super talented with hair. This was all true on the wedding day as well. I was really happy with my hair, and still am when I look at the photos! I often have the experience of getting a blow out and having it fall immediately upon leaving the salon, so I was nervous about wearing my hair down for the wedding (even though it was what I most wanted). I was so glad that on the day of the wedding it lasted all day and night. Thank you to Faith and the team at Flynn Makeup and Hair for organizing!

Flynn was absolutely amazing! We did a trial at her studio before the wedding and she was able to really hone in on the look I was going for. At my wedding she absolutely nailed it! I felt so beautiful without feeling like the makeup was caked on or too fake looking. She was such a pleasure to be around and made all my bridesmaids feel super comfortable. Also the staying power of the makeup she did was unmatched! I didn't have a smudge all night and when I rolled out of bed after four hours of sleep to go to our goodbye brunch (and forgot to wash my face) my makeup STILL looked perfect the next day. Spectacular work.

I am not sure if my issue will be resolved or not but here is the first of several reviews I will be leaving. Hopefully I can update it if it's resolved. I was initially happy with the trial for both make up and hair. But come the wedding date it was a huge disappointment:
-I called 3 days before to give directions to my venue and she had NO IDEA if she was doing make up, hair or both. Fine, its been a while maybe she forgot. Good thing I called to remind her.
-At my trail my hair was soft curls in the back. At my wedding my hair was a disaster! It looked nothing like the trial. I was assured my hair would be curled and she said she would, but left without finishing the job.
Here are some photos:

Having Flynn and her team be part of my wedding weekend was one of the best decisions I made. She's not just a talented artist, she also immediately feels like a friend you want to get a drink with.
I can't believe how happy I was with my wedding look and the looks of rest of the bridal party. Everyone was saying it was one of the best wedding makeup experiences they'd had, not just because of how her team has mastered the truly natural makeup look, but they were also so so fun and calming to hang out with all morning. Flynn and her hair artist Faith truly made me feel like the best version of myself. Thank you!!

Flynn is the best! I felt like I was flying by the seat of my pants through all of my wedding planning/ never felt like I knew what I was doing but Flynn made the hair and makeup part easy. Our trial was so fun - Flynn is so easy to talk to and such a genuine nice person. The best part about Flynn is she took my feedback so well and made small adjustments to create my dream look!!! I was so comfortable with her. As an added bonus she was such a calming force on the day of my wedding, like a day-of therapist I didn’t know I needed (my mother was really starting to stress me out but hanging with Flynn and her team was the best distraction)!! I would highly recommend her - I felt so effortlessly beautiful on my wedding day and so did all my bridesmaids. Don’t shop around just pick Flynn!

Their work is truly stunning too. All of my bridesmaids, one of which was a makeup artist, loved their makeup. Flynn and her team gave me the clean but dramatic look I was going for.

Flynn and Faith were an absolute pleasure to work with! I had heard from a friend that Flynn was the first vendor she booked for her wedding and then planned around her and I completely understood why. From the moment I booked her until the day of the wedding Flynn was kind, flexible and incredibly professional. She made everyone look stunning, but not overdone and I have never felt more beautiful. She was also a wonderful person to be around on my wedding day. Everyone loved her so much we’re booking her for upcoming events as well. She’s absolutely the best!

During my trial, she took my feedback very seriously and even purchased a few additional items to help ensure the perfect look on the day of my wedding.
Everything went smoothly and my mom, sister, and I had a blast getting ready on the day of my wedding. :) Thanks again, Flynn & Mable!

My husband was overcome with emotion when he saw me and said he was just stunned at how beautiful I was and that was all because of Flynn and her expertise at making a bride look radiant on her wedding day! Faith did a fantastic job also with my hair that allowed me to wear my mother’s veil with soft curls (which I never knew I had!) and the styling fit my dress and veil perfectly. If you are getting married, you just HAVE to use Flynn and her team at Red Beauty Bridal. Thank you for making my Big Day an extra special day to remember!

Flynn was amazing to work with! She was super flexible with our schedule changes and adding guests and made the morning fun and easy for us. She did an outstanding job on our makeup and her hairstylist Faith did an incredible job on my hair (I was the bride). I would recommend Flynn and Faith to anyone! You won't be disappointed.

I booked Flynn only one month prior to my wedding due to my original wedding and vendors being canceled due to the pandemic. I couldn't be happier about my choice in Flynn as she and Danielle were incredible the day of. I was extremely nervous about not having a trial prior to the day because of COVID, but Flynn knew exactly what I was looking for and delivered. My bridal party looked incredible and I'll definitely continue to book Flynn for makeup work in NYC (when we can start leaving the house again :))

I had the amazing opportunity to book Flynn + her team from Red Beauty Bridal to do my wedding day hair + makeup and I can't say enough about the complete flawless and beautiful work that they did. Not only was Flynn extremely accommodating & patient during the never ending changes that I had as a COVID Bride, but her disposition on the wedding day was something I haven't seen in a long time. As a Wedding Planner I've had the pleasure of working with some incredible wedding vendors in my career, knowing her work & having spoken to her prior to my selection made me KNOW that I had the best person to make me look perfect on such an important day for us.
I couldn't recommend Red Beauty Bridal enough and I am so incredibly happy and thrilled with how the pictures looked and how I felt during the whole day. Not only did it look natural and clean, but it lasted all day and I had absolutely NO need for touchups whatsoever.
I KNOW Red Beauty Bridal will also be a preferred vendor of mine that I will refer to ALL my clients in the future as her work was amazing and one of the nicest and sweetest people I have ever had the honor of meeting!

I found Flynn through Rosa, a friend and makeup artist in the industry in New York City. Flynn was helpful, easy to talk to and helped me stay calm in the process of planning my wedding remotely from Europe.
I knew I wanted to work with Rosa for makeup and Flynn was able to find me another skilled artist to work alongside her to service my bridal party. The result was uniform and gorgeous.
Most importantly though, I will never be able to thank Flynn enough for finding Vassilis to style my hair. I wanted a very specific finger wave style and have been to many stylists in the past who were unable to achieve the look. Vassilis was not only professional and made me feel extremely safe on the day, but he made my hair look better than it has ever looked (or likely will ever look!) again.
All in all, Flynn facilitated a dream team for my wedding. If you're looking for the highest quality in styling artistry, you really can't go wrong here.

Flynn was INCREDIBLE! Not only was my wedding makeup the hands down best makeup I’ve ever had - she is a great presence to be with you on your wedding day. Such a kind and upbeat person! I loved working with her so much and have referred her to many friends and brides. They were all beyond happy with the result and loved working with her! She is the best.

Flynn was incredible! She not only does amazing makeup but her team was exceptional as well! Flynn made myself and all of my bridesmaids comfortable and gave them exactly what they were looking for. She was very accommodating and patience with all of us squished in a tiny hotel room in downtown Manhattan. She never complained and provided us with a fun experience that was worry free. I highly recommend Flynn and her team! I will definitely use her services again someday..thank you for everything Flynn, you’re the best!

Flynn was the best decision I could have made for my wedding! I had been in weddings where she did the bride’s makeup and every one looked stunning... I knew I had to do a trial with her. When I met her she was so nice, fun and really listened to what I wanted, which was a more natural look. It was also important to me to have someone that would bring good energy and into the bridal suite on my wedding day and Flynn did that and more. Also, somehow she’ll do what she did for you at your trial but make you look even better on your wedding day. Needless to say, you should book Flynn before someone else does :)

Flynn was an absolute dream to work with on our wedding day. From the communication prior to the exquisite looks she executed on the big day, every step of the way was perfect. She listened to what I wanted to for my bridesmaids and accentuated their natural beauty. All of my bridesmaids were extremely pleased with their look, and that meant to much to me because I really wanted them all to feel comfortable and gorgeous. In addition to being an extremely talented makeup artist, Flynn is top-notch when it comes to professionalism. She was so easy to work with that it just took so much stress off of me when planning our wedding. Thank you, Flynn!

Flynn and her team made my special day as a bride so seamless and wonderful. I can't recommend her enough. She is a true professional who took my vision of what I wanted to look like on my wedding day and brought it to life. She and her team were also just super easy and fun to be around, which is important when you're balancing so many vendors.

Flynn and her team were an absolute dream to work with for my wedding. From the engagement pictures to the trials (plural) to the rehearsal dinner to the big day, her team was punctual, professional, and most of all easygoing and fun. I was pretty set on my make up but my hair was a wildcard until the morning of, and Flynn and her team were very flexible and calming during the whole process. Thank you Flynn for being such a large part of our day and I can’t recommend Flynn and her team highly enough for weddings, events, etc. She’s the best in the biz!

Hiring Flynn was by far the best decision I ever made !!! To start , she has the most incredible personality . She is warm, friendly, calm , sweet and of course insanely talented. Flynn happened to be the makeup artist for my sister in laws wedding 3 years before mine and she left such a lasting impression I just knew I had to have her! Flynn continued to leave a lasting impression because my other sister in law who got married a year after I did also used her for her wedding. She’s basically become a friend of the family and we wouldn’t have it any other way. You will be in the best hands possible with Flynn .
Hands down recommend ! 10/10
