OC Beauty by Elizabeth

ress-free. Elizabeth was super organized and responsive, which made planning hair and makeup for two brides, six bridesmaids, and the mother of the bride go so smoothly. She remembered small comments we made during our hair and makeup trial, and made adjustments to be sure that we were happy with the end result. Everyone on her team was so kind, calm, and fun to have around the morning of the wedding. They made sure everyone felt beautiful and comfortable with their look. As people who don’t usually wear much makeup, we really appreciated that they nailed the natural, glowy look we wanted. Everyone still felt like themselves - but fancier! We’re so glad we booked Elizabeth and her team! They were such a lovely part of our day!

ly throughout the entire day and night," or "No touch-ups were needed.

both super sweet and great at what they do. Elizabeth is fair priced with great quality. I highly recommend her and her team! 

g for someone to do my hair and makeup (a family friend was taking care of my bridal party), and a lot of vendors turned me down because I wasn’t booking a full group. But when I spoke with Elizabeth, she told me that Amy would be happy to work with just me, and I’m so glad she did. From the moment I met Amy at the trial, I knew I was in good hands. She had such a calm and comforting presence and really listened to what I wanted. I told her that I don’t wear much makeup normally and that I have a lot of freckles I didn’t want to completely cover. I wanted to look like myself, just a little more polished. She totally got the vision, and after the trial, I was already obsessed with the look. My hair was a bit trickier, as I have naturally curly hair, and for the trial, I had asked for regular curls. After seeing the style, I realized I wanted to try something different for the actual day, and Amy was so flexible and understanding. On the wedding day, she absolutely nailed it! My hair looked even better than I imagined, and both my hair and makeup lasted all day without a single touch-up needed. To top it off, just a few weeks before the wedding, my mom decided she wanted to get her makeup done as well (after seeing how amazing Amy’s work was). I asked Amy if she'd be willing to add her last minute, and without hesitation, she said yes. She was so kind, professional, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. I’m so grateful to Amy for making me feel confident and beautiful on my wedding day. She made me feel like the best version of myself and honestly, like a princess. I would 100% recommend her to any bride looking for someone who’s not only talented but also truly listens and cares.

t! She is so calm and friendly, which really helped us relax while getting ready for the wedding. I highly recommend Elizabeth for any of your hair/makeup needs!

ere just perfect and more than what I could ask for. My bridesmaids could not get over how efficient she was and how amazing it looked. My matron of honor even said she wished she had hired her for her wedding. I provided my hair accessories, and she just knew how to fix it in my hair to make my vision come to life. I so very much want to recommend her to every bride to be. You will not regret her amazing work! She will definitely make sure you will feel and look incredible on your big day.

my hair and makeup trial, even encouraging me to share any thoughts the next day so she could perfect the look. On my wedding day, Elizabeth exceeded all expectations. She arrived early to set up, was perfectly on time, and came fully prepared. Her flexibility and professionalism made the morning so smooth. I was also so impressed with how long-lasting her work was. My hair and makeup looked flawless for about 12 hours, and at the end of the night, I didn’t even want to remove all her beautiful work. Her transparent pricing was another highlight—Elizabeth was the only hair and makeup artist I found who clearly advertised her rates. I can’t recommend Elizabeth enough—she’s talented, professional, and such a joy to work with. I would confidently refer her to anyone I know!

edibly talented and my hair/makeup was just stunning. We are so glad we found her!! She also is very calming which is so helpful when you have chaotic family members ahah! I loved spending my last moments as a bride with Elizabeth and I would continue to recommend her to EVERYONE!

g party and I on the big day. Everyone was so happy about the outcome! I highly recommend Elizabeth and her team - I might just use her again for other special occasions!

I didn’t know how to vocalize that; I didn’t know myself what was off about the look compared to what I expected. Elizabeth, however, immediately noticed I wasn’t as excited as I could have been, and offered to rework it the next day, unprompted. We did and she nailed the look I was hoping for. It meant so much to me that she was willing to listen and try something different. I felt like she really cared that I was absolutely happy with the look- which is so important! Day-of also had a bit of trial and error, as can be expected in getting the look just right, and again Elizabeth was patient and gracious with me. Overall it was a wonderful experience working with Elizabeth and I would highly recommend her!

thrilled with my hair and makeup, and my bridesmaids, mother-in-law, flower girls, and mother were all equally pleased with their looks. Not only were Elizabeth’s prices more competitive than other vendors, but the quality of her work was also superior. I highly recommend her services for hair and make up.

ning process and she was so patient, and then so on top of it during the wedding day! My hair also was gorgeous, and exactly what I wanted! All of my bridal party and family also loved their hair/makeup and the false lashes were a hit for everyone! Cannot recommend her enough!

d executed a look that was better than what I had envisioned for myself. I felt beautiful the entire day. Myself, and the bridal party have gotten so many comments saying how beautiful we looked. She and her team were wonderful with my bridal party. I am so happy that Elizabeth was able to give me exactly what I had envisioned but made it better. I would highly recommend her and her team.

at I had envisioned for myself. I felt beautiful the entire day. She and her team were wonderful with my bridal party. They were polite, patient and fun to be around. The morning was so chill which was much appreciated. Every member of my bridal party as well as my mother and MIL felt like a princess . They sure looked like it.

like I could trust Elizabeth from the beginning.

tyles during my trial, and when I couldn’t pick between two lipstick colors, she gave my both! She also says responds quickly and was so accommodating to me when adding/taking away a person from my original estimate. I loved my make up and hair— she even rescued me when I forgot my Pearl pins! My bridal party loved their make up and hair too. Highly recommend!!!!

commend!

efficient.

as perfect the entire day into the night. My makeup was a beautiful elevated bridal look, and my now Husband thought I looked beautiful. She responds quickly to email and text, and provided flexibility in the schedule when things changed about a week out from wedding day. I look forward to the day where I need my hair and makeup done for special event, so I can book Elizabeth again! Thanks so much!

e no matter what your age 🥰 She was recommended by my wedding coordinator Cheryl of Jessica Lynn Weddings.

lasted the entire night! Elizabeth also did my trial for my engagement photos and everything came out perfect. Not only is she super talented and professional but also super friendly and caring. We really felt like she was an honorary member of the wedding for the day!

h and her team had done a friend of mine's wedding and everyone notably looked like themselves, but polished and beautiful. Elizabeth delivered nothing less for my wedding and engagement shoot. She was able to accomplish something similar to the inspiration pictures we gave about hair and makeup for everyone, even exceeding our expectations. She is willing to come EARLY for morning weddings, will come to your hotel, and is a great conversationalist. She also took beautiful pictures of my makeup and hair with my mom, which I will cherish for a long time. :)

t I wanted for my hair. I showed Elizabeth some photos of what I liked and explained what I was wanting- and she did her magic! It was a vintage inspired updo that was perfect! Elizabeth made me feel so special and I have never felt so beautiful! I would highly recommend her!! Thank you Elizabeth!

ly what I wanted for our special day. She nailed the look, and was so attentive. She was very clean and efficient, and any bride would be lucky to have her be a part of their wedding day look!

children, and by the end of the day, we were ahead of schedule! Her & her stylists listened to what each person wanted and they made everyone look stunning! I chose Elizabeth because of the natural look she provides. I don't normally wear makeup so I wanted something on the lighter end for my wedding day. Elizabeth did an amazing job, and I wouldn't change a thing! I highly recommend Elizabeth Hickman Hair/Makeup!

for my hair and makeup, the general styles I was aiming to embody in relation to my dress style, and expressed that I wanted to still feel like myself, since I don't wear makeup on a daily basis. She absolutely nailed it! I was obsessed with my hair and makeup following our trial run and knew that I made the right choice. I got so many compliments on the day of the wedding and am still fawning over her work! My makeup was beautiful, yet was natural enough that I felt like myself, and my hair (a high pony with Hollywood-esque waves) was exactly what I wanted! Not only is Elizabeth an incredibly competent hair and makeup artist, but she is also a delight to be around. She's so nice, fun, and was super friendly to my family and friends who were present while she was getting us ready. Highly recommend!! :)

n with a rough idea of what style I wanted, and Elizabeth helped bring it to life perfectly. She seemed to know exactly what I was looking for, even though at times I felt that I had a hard time articulating exactly what I wanted. But the biggest bonus in working with Elizabeth is how flexible she is. I had a few adjustments that I realized I wanted made to my hair/makeup style after our initial trial, and she welcomed my new ideas with a completely open mind and integrated them seamlessly into her styling on the wedding day. Furthermore, a few months before the wedding I unfortunately got a horrific sunburn that turned into a very dark (and very large) sunspot in the center of my back -- my dress was completely open in the back, of course. I went into full panic mode realizing a couple of weeks before the wedding that the dark spot wasn't fading. I reached out to Elizabeth with my concerns and some photos, and she was so reassuring and really put me at ease with her confidence about being able to effectively blend the dark spot using some body/stage makeup products. She has extensive experience in this area, and it shows! She blended out the spot on my back entirely, and it wasn't visible AT ALL. I can't thank her enough for the services she provided on my wedding day, and I'd highly recommend her. Thanks again, Elizabeth! You rock.

my fiancée tag along too. She was very communicative which is important as bride when it seems like you have to wait forever for vendors to respond. On the day of the wedding, she was punctual with her partner. All of my girls LOVED their hair and makeup and everyone felt beautiful!! She made everyone feel at ease and just blended in with the craziness that ensued with getting ready. I would recommend her again and again and plan on going back to her for any other event! Her prices are super reasonable. Thank you!

and absolutely loved the result. It was honestly my favorite makeup/hair look of all times. Beyond her gorgeous work, Elizabeth is so personable, attentive, professional, and really made me smile at every stage of my special day. The trial was extremely helpful and I got a lot of good tips. Thank you so much Elizabeth for all you did, you are wonderful to work with!

r the day! I felt like a princess the entire day and my wedding party were perfect! She also worked with me all the way up to the wedding as I adjusted schedules and even locations week of! Amazing!

solute sweetheart. The hair and makeup she did was flawless. I literally had no adjustments needed. If you’re looking for a seamless experience with a sweet, professional, an amazing stylist…Elizabeth is your girl!! Thank you, Elizabeth, for helping to make my day special!

and she did a great job of maintaining our natural texture in our updos. She arrived promptly, had all of us finished with plenty of time to spare, and both the hair and makeup stayed put throughout the rest of the day and night. I wish I could have her style me more often!

py with our hair. She is very talented, sweet, and responsive!! She really takes all of your preferences into consideration and makes it happen! I highly recommend booking her! XOXO
