perhaps it wasn't quite the look for me, she was so patient and understanding with the modifications I wanted to make for the big day. She helped me learn what parts of the look would make me feel like the beautiful version of myself and constantly encouraged me to let her know how I felt about each part. Come wedding day, the look was PERFECT. Not only did I adore how I looked that day, but my family members loved how they looked as well! They all raved about how much they loved Hailey as an artist and a person. I don't think I'll ever look that beautiful ever again (unless of course, I call Hailey to do my makeup haha). Pick Hailey! It'll be one of the best decisions you make!

st self. She artfully elevated my features without overdoing it and my makeup looked great inside, outside, on polaroids, iPhones, professional pics, you name it. If you're looking for a reliable make-up artist who brings the good vibes, look no further than Hailey. I can't say enough great things about her!

oft glam bride) and still made me look great in photos and in person! She was easy to coordinate with through out the entire process and is really fun to hang out with. She was a great addition to my get ready room, and also did a great job with all of my bridesmaids. Whatever your vision is for your wedding day Hailey can make it happen!

ng day makeup was amazing and lasted late into the night. She was a calming force for me. She kept me present and helped me work through my nerves as well. Truly could not recommend her enough - for weddings, birthdays, any life event! Hailey is professional, fun, and incredibly talented. Worth every penny!

nes to pinks tones (cause I tend to change my mind) and she listened to what I wanted and made my dreams a reality! She is super friendly and made the getting ready day so much fun! I cant recommend her enough!

d room switch mid bridal makeup and all. I was so excited for my mother and sister to have their makeup done by Hailey, to feel like the most beautiful version of themselves, and she delivered tenfold; my mother kept saying “I didn’t know I could look like this!” Hailey masterfully switched from heavy disco themed bridesmaid glam, to natural 66 year old mother of the bride (who never wears makeup) to the bridal makeup of my dreams - I didn’t even know what I wanted, but Hailey did. Hailey is more than an extremely talented professional makeup artist; she is the bringer of calm vibes, good advice, confidence, and literal perfection. I cannot recommend Hailey enough for any occasion, but ESPECIALLY your wedding day!

tight when I booked her, she was incredibly responsive, detail oriented, flexible, understanding, and she totally saved the day. For the day of the wedding, she arrived on time, fully prepared, and brought such a calm, professional, happy energy to the room. Each bridesmaid's look was customized perfectly based on their inspiration photos, and everyone was thrilled with the results. Hailey even provided us with a bit of lipstick and powder puffs for touch-ups. All of our makeup lasted 13+ hours. If you're looking for a talented, professional, fabulous makeup artist who truly delivers, Hailey is your girl. I HIGHLY recommend (and will be booking her for every time I need makeup in the future).

dding day makeup turned out. I couldn’t recommend her more!

brides. She was super easy to book, completely stress free. She kicked off the day for us and everyone loved their time in her chair, she was super relaxed and approachable. She was flexible and enthusiastically went with my sudden inspiration that I wanted fairy colors on my cheeks! I highly recommend Hailey for a professional, breezy, talented makeup experience!

nd and simply amazing to work with. You will never be disappointed with her services.

. Everyone loved their makeup and sings Hailey’s praises to this day. My mother, who has dementia was absolutely beaming and felt so beautiful. Haileys communication is amazing. She’s professional, punctual, flexible. She is not just a makeup up artist but a kind soul who is encouraging and positive, melting so effortlessly in with wedding parties and family members. I could not imagine my wedding day without her. She also did my makeup for my engagement photos, and has in the past for events. Not once have I disliked anything she did. I have loved it all. She is open to feedback and so great about making sure you are happy in the end. I know every time I work with Hailey that I’m in the best hands possible.

my wedding. Hailey is so knowledgeable and kind and made my experience so great! I thought I looked great. Not overly done and not nothing either. We went through options during my trial so the day of the wedding I had no notes and it was a stress free experience. Also, Hailey makes great conversation so we had so much fun both times she did my makeup! She also did my wedding party's makeup and everyone looked stunning. We have all different skin types and tones and Hailey was easily able to handle everyone! Couldn't recommend her more and so thankful that I found her!

professional judgement allows perfect application and a lasting result.

y and also helped me find a hair stylist. She made scheduling very, very easy. She was professional to work with, a nice addition to the wedding day prep, and most importantly, I loved my makeup! I am not someone who knows much about makeup and Hailey helped walk me through the process for a glamorous, but still natural, look the day of. I got a ton of compliments and couldn't be happier.

oked absolutely incredible on my wedding day! Second, Hailey is so professional and incredibly kind. She is so thoughtful and makes sure that you’re comfortable throughout the entire process. She was always early, was easy to communicate with, and is such a calming presence. 10/10 recommended!!

emented my skin and kept my freckles out, while still giving me a soft glowy look. Working with Hailey was a wonderful experience and I am so glad that we booked a trial appointment in advance - it was so fun to try some different finishing touches and have time to "live in" the make-up look for a day - I was also able to book my hair trial the same day, so it was perfect! I am so glad I got to work with Hailey and I am so absolutely happy with how my make-up looked on my wedding.

on time in the wee hours of the morning ready to go! She had everything from a stool for me to sit on, to little containers to take things like lip gloss, and lint free squares to dab all my happy tears away - things I would never think were important until that very moment. My make up was absolutely amazing. Hailey asked for my thoughts on lip color before hand and if I had any inspiration photos just to start the conversation so she can nail down exactly what I wanted. The day came and she got to work! She was lovely at telling me what she was doing throughout the whole process and told me we could do this “kardashian style” so I could still chat with people and drink my coffee instead of just being a frozen statue. My makeup made me feel so beautiful and was exactly what I wanted for the big day. I wore that face from 7am until 12a, hiked up a trail on warm sunny day, cried my happy tears, kissed my husband a bunch, smiled for a million photos, and continued to hike and pose for photos until dinner later in the day - and when I tell you this makeup did not smudge… I looked as good as I did when she first applied it if not better. I was so impressed. The people who you hire on your wedding day, make your wedding day. Getting ready was the most fun and stress free experience thanks to Hailey, and I’m forever grateful for her! 10/10 recommend!

azing on our special day. With two brides with very different requests she was flexible and tailored each look. She worked with a variety of aged skin from 13-72 for our bridal party and really made each person feel incredible. Hailey is so kind, flexible, resourceful, helpful and not to mention absolutely hilarious. She's even good at calming anyones nerves. If you're looking for a makeup artist, look no further!

ut the best in you. I always tell her, “I want to look glamorous, but like myself”, and she does exactly that. I would trust her to do my makeup for any event and know she will give me nothing but perfection. She is the best of the best, and the greatest makeup artist I’ve ever worked with! Highly recommend her!

mmend her enough!!

o and did the exact color palette suggestions I imaged on my wedding day. I'm especially particular about my mascara, and she took the time to do individual eyelash placements to get the exact look I was going for. I would definitely recommend Hailey!

er on my team for such an important day!!

ook natural but everything popped in the perfect way. Every single woman in my bridal party and both mothers looked gorgeous after Hailey finished their makeup. Also, the makeup lasted beautifully from 8 AM until everyone went to bed at midnight! Hailey is also a delight to get to sit and chat with so it made the morning getting ready fun, relaxed, and easy. I cannot recommend her enough!

ame and contact for my daughter’s wedding. The makeup artist was Hailey with Off Black Arts. We hired her for my daughter's July 25, 2020 small Covid year intimate family wedding and again for her big wedding on July 23, 2021. Hailey is an amazing and gifted makeup artist. She makes her clients looks as though they are ready for a magazine shoot. My daughter's makeup was gorgeous and her wedding pictures are excellent. As the mother of the bride, I was so extremely happy with Hailey's makeup artistry on me, I hired her when I needed business professional headshot. I have had countless compliments on my business picture. To top it all off, Hailey is extremely kind and sweet. We give Hailey a 5 star ratings – she is truly exceptional.

her. My makeup was flawless, she is so sweet and is so beyond talented. I ended up crying after she left my wedding venue, I texted her as soon as so could and begged her to come back. Little did I know she didn’t need to be begged, she was already turned around heading back. I love this girl and love her work, I’ll be booking her for everything in the future

t was like she had on the beauty filter! The Moms, who were out of their comfort zone, felt heard and looked so nice. Her work speaks for itself but I really would like brides to know that she is a calming presence and can match the ambience of room seamlessly.

wedding makeup she did was absolute perfection! I’m picky when it comes to others doing my makeup, but she listened to what I wanted, knew what would work and it was amazing! Would hire her again and again!

services.

she kept us entertained with interesting stories. We were very happy with her work, especially since it can be difficult to find a MUA that has a lot of experience working on darker or warmer skin tones.

00% recommend her to anyone wishing to look fabulous to their event!

ven put lotion on my legs and feet right before my portraits. She waited around until she knew I looked perfect. I am so lucky to have had her help on my day.

g on and off all of the ladies makeup didn’t budge at all! No weird nose or cheek marks! My bridesmaids told me repeatedly that their makeup never looked so good, and I personally never felt more beautiful ! My mom with more mature skin (sorry mom) even loved how hers turned out and was shocked she didn’t have to re-touch anything! You won’t be sorry if you book with her! Thank you again!!

l the details of application and best practices for using brushes and varying products. We used as many products of mine that I already owned and she gave great recs for supplementing my collection. I don’t wear a lot of makeup and she helped me find a look that felt natural. After the session, she checked in to see how my practice was going and continued to offer tips based on photos I sent. My makeup looked 💯on wedding day plus I now have all these cool tips for everyday use. She was just lovely throughout it all.

ipstick touch ups throughout the day! I will recommend you and would be honored to have you do my makeup again!!! Also, thank you for calming and reassuring me when I needed it! You're amazing ❤️

xious when I met with her on the day of. She instantly made me feel so at ease keeping me occupied with fun conversation and even let me be included in what we were selecting to use for my makeup (although I gave her full control and she did not disappoint)! I've had my makeup done multiple times as a bridesmaid in the past and always been disappointed. Hailey knew exactly what to do to make me look and feel my best. You can tell she truly loves what she does and wants her clients to be 1000% satisfied.

trial but she insisted so that I was completely happy on the day of. I had family members that have never had their makeup professionally done, not to mention a few that were immunocompromised, and each of them loved their glam look. Hailey made everyone feel very comfortable and safe with her easy-going personality and sanitation steps. I highly recommend her for any special occasion!

e had safe working practices set up for COVID, which was wonderful to see. My makeup stood up to a long day with my mask going on and off all day, and it remained gorgeous. She also gave me a lipstick to keep which was a lovely touch. Anyone looking for a great makeup artist should work with Hailey!

son I am docking one star is her pricing was higher than everyone else I had been quoted by when researching. Ultimately felt its worth it though for ones big wedding day!

will feel beautiful and special on my wedding day. She first attempted to connect me with makeup artists in her network in Wisconsin. When those artists were not available on the date of my wedding, Hailey agreed to the next viable option- a makeup lesson. As a girl who only uses mascara and a little blush on occasion I was definitely nervous to take this on for such an important day! Hailey arrived for my lesson promptly and once we got started I felt much more at ease. Hailey is laid back, yet attentive. She remembered exactly what look I was going for from my consult many months prior which made me really feel heard and understood. She looked at my home makeup supply to maximize the utility of what I already had while flawlessly matching a concealer shade and pointing out some other useful products along the way for my investment. I was comfortable practicing with her in this 1:1 setting free of judgment where we took turns with each step in the application process (her doing one side, me doing the other). Book her already! Since my lesson, I practiced the routine a few times prior to the big day. Definitely going into wedding week with much more confidence!

was with a friend. I had her do two very different looks-one for the ceremony and one for the reception. She nailed both of them perfectly. I had given her a few inspiration photos and she understood exactly what I was going for. I left feeling ecstatic and confident about my wedding day look. She was so flexible with my schedule the day of and I really appreciated the calmness she brought. It's was relieving to not only have someone that understood the look you were going for but also did it with such joy and love. I could not have asked for a more perfect person to make me beautiful on my wedding day.

were on the same page about what I wanted and she made sure of that. On time, professional, fun, and extremely talented.

as Hailey’s, and being an Asian woman I was nervous about finding someone who would understand how to enhance my features while still looking and feeling like myself on my wedding day. From the very beginning I felt like I could trust Hailey, her work speaks for itself and she is such an easy going and caring person. I immediately felt taken care of, which, during a Covid wedding is a huge gift! I have never felt more seen or more beautiful than I did on my wedding day, and that is what all brides hope for. Hailey is fantastic in every way and I would recommend her to anyone who wants to look and feel like the very best version of themself. Thank you Hailey!!

venue), Hailey was super flexible and offered to give me a makeup tutorial instead! We went step by step together, picking out the perfect colors for my look, and she taught me new techniques so that I knew exactly what to do. She was so patient - showing me each step, then letting me practice a few times until I felt confident I was ready to move on. She is very professional, but also made me feel like it was just a fun afternoon playing dress up. Highly recommend - even beyond the wedding -my makeup game just got so much stronger :)
