Makeup and hair looks for your wedding that are fresh, polished and contemporary. We are fun and professional and can travel anywhere in the tri-state area and internationally.
I am already thinking of the next occasion where I can work with Sharon again. She is truly so talented! I was nervous before meeting her, as I’ve had experiences where I’ve asked for natural makeup and walked away with a heavy look. But Sharon...
is a true master of her craft. She asked questions, listened, and offered guidance. I’ve never been so happy with my makeup!! I felt like the best version of myself, and it shows in all our pictures. Sharon is also extremely organized. She uses separate brushes for every person and leaves you with a little kit that includes your lip color to reapply. I highly recommend Sharon. My 2 bridesmaids, mom, and husband’s mom also loved their makeup. I only wish I could replicate what she does!

I ugly-cried all the way through my wedding ceremony -- truly, like, nose running, tears dripping off my chin -- and literally NO ONE who attended my wedding seems to know this. Was not evident to anyone at the reception (and obviously I have a...

I had my hair and makeup (plus a gua sha/facial treatment) done by SB Beauty beforehand, and I don't know what dark magic Sharon and her two stylists Rebecca and Dani harnessed, but trust me, you want it working in your favor on your wedding day!

ife. For my wedding, I wanted to have a natural, subtle look. Sharon interpreted that perfectly and made me feel "made up" without making me feel like a different person.
Hair: I have a shag haircut which I love, but which I fully recognize doesn't always lend itself to updos. Sharon was able to give me the sleek, refined updo without a shellac of hairspray and painful pins :) She also was able to incorporate some last minute, kind of heavy, hair accessories that I truly never thought my hair could handle :)
In short - highly recommend! Loved my experience!

I cannot recommend Sharon and her team enough! I am Type A and booked all of my vendors fairly soon after getting engaged…except for hair and makeup. I thought this part would be easy, as there are many great artists in NYC. After two horrible ...
trials with another vendor, I found Sharon. She put me at ease with her professionalism, thoroughness, and overall knowledge of hair/makeup. We spoke at length on the phone before and after my trial, and she had great recommendations while still listening to what I wanted. On the day of my wedding, she was organized, on time, and a true pleasure to work with. I decided to have her stick around for touch-ups and highly recommend doing this. Sharon was one of the best vendor decisions I made and I truly recommend her!

Patrina, who did our hair, was so sweet and also totally nailed her job. My big bouncy curls held up all night (they never do!) and my sometimes picky little sister loved her updo.

That paid off on wedding day, when Sharon and her army of stylists came in and made up myself and TWELVE others. It was a marathon of a morning, and they were champions. Not to mention, Sharon had three weddings that weekend and brought the energy and enthusiasm to every one.
Sharon knows how to match the look you're going for - whether it's super done up or more natural. I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup and would use SB Beauty again in a heartbeat.

Sharon was an absolute pleasure to work with from the moment I first contacted her for a trial through my wedding day.
The trial was easy to set up. We found a weekend morning in February to meet up at her Lower East Side space, where Jenna j...
oined us to work on my hair. It looked perfect--it was exactly what I envisioned. Sharon and Jenna were sure to take lots of pictures so they could recreate the look seven months later.
On my wedding day, we had Sharon, Jenna and one other person on hair for six people (including me) getting makeup done and seven people (including me) for hair. The team had military precision. Seriously, not a single person ran over. Even the photographer was impressed by how spot on time everything was!
Also, Sharon was seriously a miracle worker when it came to making sure my makeup lasted all night. I danced up a storm, and at one point I literally had beads of sweat on my face, but at the end of the night, I still looked awesome (in my humble opinion...haha). And even when we were getting ready, when my dad saw me in my dress, he started crying and so then I started crying! But Sharon was right there with q-tips to save her masterpiece and to keep the tears from running down my face.
If you are looking for someone to create your perfect wedding makeup - look no further. Sharon has you covered.

In three words: “Sharon is fantastic!” Not only she is professional and so very good at what she does, she is energetic, fun and the sweetest! We scheduled a test for both my hair and makeup at her studio. Oh boy!! We had so much fun! First, she took the time to listen exactly what I wanted. It was a great process to work together and create what it turned out to be my final look. It was so comforting to know she was there for me. She listened!! I knew it was important for her to know what I wanted, she looked thoroughly at the inspirational pictures I had. She took the time to get to know me and my style better as well. She made sure I felt comfortable and beautiful! The whole process was perfect! Sharon used only very good products and she knew what she was doing with all those brushes! I was impressed.
On the wedding day, everything went super smoothly! We started early enough so my mother and I where all happy and done right on time with no stress at all! I felt like a princess. Before she left, she gave me a kit to do some touch ups on my make up during the party.
If you are a Bride, you need Sharon on your big day! Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!

Skype and illustrative photo examples. I had selected my specific styles and shared these with Sharon and she really made it all happen on the day!

After the trial Sharon took my opinion seriously - I was adamant about airbrush and knew I'd need false eyelashes.

On my wedding day Sharon kept the vibe laid-back, and not only did my makeup look exquisite, but it felt great! I felt gorgeous and comfortable and not like I was wearing globs of anything on my face. I'm a compulsive powderer, and I didn't have to think about my makeup or touch my face once over the course of very, very long night of partying. Whatever magic Sharon worked, I'm so glad I trusted her for the biggest day of my life.
