The Hair + Makeup Company

at my own wedding. I did two trials with Sarah because I couldn’t decide what I wanted, and she was very patient with me changing my mind and adding to her already busy schedule. Both trials turned out so well despite being done in far less time than the actual wedding day. On the day of the wedding The Hair + Makeup Company team arrived very early in the morning to start on my six bridesmaids, two mothers, and myself. Everything was well organized and smooth. There was a wall of photos showing everyone’s desired hair and makeup photos and we even ended a bit ahead of schedule. Thank you to Sarah and her team for making all my bridesmaids, my mother, mother-in-law, and of course me look beautiful and feel amazing for a day!

TLY what you want at your trial! If it isn’t what you want, go somewhere else because it will NOT get better on your wedding day, chances are (as was my case) it will be even worse!!! Following are just a few things that went wrong. First, she makes you pay for all of her services up front in order to book. Second, she cancelled my hair and makeup trial (the night before) and NEVER contacted me to reschedule. Lastly, she was running late on the day of the trail and I had to wait OVER and hour for her AFTER I had left work early in order to accommodate the time she said she was available. After all the frustrations I had experienced I was praying for a smooth trial. Sarah refused to re-work a headpiece and to use airbrush makeup. So what was the point of the trial? I was confused because I asked Sarah previously what happened if I wasn’t happy (since I had already prepaid for everything) and she assured me that she would work with me at the trial until everything was exactly how I wanted. This was obviously NOT the case! WEDDING DAY had finally arrived and I was beyond excited (obviously!) until it was 7:45am and Sarah still had not arrived. After an hour, Sarah showed and the chaos ensued. First, Sarah and her artists were discussing how hungover they were from the night before, talking about doing Adderall in order to do our hair/makeup and having SO many inappropriate discussions SO loud I couldn’t even talk to my bridesmaids! Second, each of my bridesmaids was asked what hair/makeup style they were looking for and asked to show pictures. What was the point in me spending HOURS putting together a slideshow for Sarah with this info? Third, the stylist doing my girls’ hair was completely incompetent, took twice the time allotted and in the end everything had to be redone! Fourth, not a SINGLE person (even the BRIDE) received airbrush makeup which was previously confirmed with Sarah multiple times! Lastly, since Sarah didn't stick to her schedule, we had only 15 minutes to get all of our pre-ceremony photos completed. Obviously, this was NOT enough time and a complete disappointment! The worst of it all was the fact that I booked Sarah with the understanding that SHE ALONE would be in charge of my hair/makeup on my wedding day (the whole point of a trial). Sarah told me that someone else would prep my makeup but Sarah would finish it. While doing my makeup, the artist said, “Wow, you’re a really chill bride for letting someone else do your makeup”. And it was at that point that I realized Sarah never had any intention of doing my makeup and blatantly LIED to me in order to get me to agree to what she wanted. On top of everything that went wrong, Sarah didn’t even deliver on her biggest promise to have HER devoted to completing MY hair and makeup on MY wedding day!!!!! And I NEVER received any apology!!!! I hope to help other brides avoid the same disaster with Sarah! Instead of Sarah putting me at ease and making the day start smoothly, it was a train wreck of confusion, incompetence and undelivered promises that started my day with complete chaos and put us so far behind schedule that there are many priceless moments I will never be able to recreate and capture.

bridal party also looked great. I wish they lived closer to me, I would hire them to make me look pretty for any event I have to go to. They were on time, reasonably priced, and were also super accommodating, finding extra people last minute to makeup my family members. Overall it was a great experience and wish I could do it again.

esponsive. Any question I had was responded to immediately. She nailed exactly what I wanted for my hair and make up and it turned out better than any of my inspiration photos! Sarah was also very helpful and provided advice for getting my hair and skin ready for my big day. She is so kind and talented! I could not have asked for a better hair and make up team. I have already recommend her to my friend who is getting married later this year (she has now booked Sarah for her wedding) and I cannot wait for her to do my hair and make up again (as a bridesmaid this time)!

st importantly, they made me look and feel beautiful on my wedding day.

there were no times available that worked for us. No refund! We are now flying in a group from Dallas Texas. What ever happened to the Customer is Always Right?

spoke several times leading up to the big day. She reviewed and discussed my pinterest board ideas and inspiration photos, as well as published photos of her own work, so that I felt very comfortable she understood my style and desired look for the wedding. On the day of, even though there was road construction, I and my bridal party were unshowered from yoga and I had accidentally not counted one bridal party member who needed her service, she was lovely, professional, calm and kept the schedule flowing perfectly, so that I and all the other girls (and my mom) were beautifully done and ready in very good time with out feeling at all rushed. When I was unsure about the look of the eyeliner, she listened, discussed and worked with me to actually change it slightly, with out undoing any of the rest of the look or disrupting the schedule/flow. She helped me to feel calm and beautiful, knowing that in my own head I needed the slight change, even though it was probably unnoticeable to anyone else. She was a fun, calming and at the same time enthusiastic presence, did a beautiful job, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to achieve a flawless, beautiful look - whether dramatic, edgy or like what I wanted which I would call "enhanced natural." I had never had nor seen airbrush make-up done before, and I was delighted that it just made my skin look flawless and not "made up" - I was so happy the day-of and incredibly happy with the way I look in our wedding photos. Thank you Sarah!

and her assistant arrived with everything they would need, and quickly set everything up seamlessly. I love how Sarah was so on top of everything, constantly checking the time and making sure that we were on schedule. As you can imagine, during the day of your wedding everyone is so excited, as well as a little scattered, and I so appreciated Sarah’s professionalism in making sure we didn’t fall behind schedule. She was very focused, but yet calm mannered and made the “getting ready” portion of the day non-stressful and fun (emphasis on non-stressful as this is very important on the day of your wedding. Not only was this part of the day enjoyable, but my hair and makeup stayed put well past the end of the wedding reception and through the after party (4am!). I couldn’t have asked for more! She did such an amazing job on my hair/ makeup and her assistant was amazing too! It was such a pleasure working with Sarah, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for makeup/ hair services for their wedding, or any event! She is the BEST!!

did an amazing job, I've never felt more beautiful and glamorous in my life and all of my bridesmaids and my Mother looked AMAZING! I am definitely going to use them again and can't say enough how pleased I am with their service!!

appy. She pays attention to every little detail and meets all of your expectations. Her and her team were on time and fit in with the bridal party perfectly. I am very picky about my makeup and Sarah met all of my expectations. Thank you for making me feel so wonderful. Can't wait to hire you again:)

r too long. It was actually really nice and I used it to spend some time with my new husband. I felt like a celebrity having Sarah and her team there with me all day. I highly recommend Sarah and her team!

eup to be super specific. She's a total pro. Kept us running totally on time and I felt so pretty! She's amazing and I would recommend her to ANYONE. Truly. Thanks Sarah!

t people. I looked at others, even did another trial run with someone else, but when I did a trial with them I knew I had found my team! They are also very reasonably priced. In my search it seemed when you put "wedding" in front of anything and the price skyrockets. They were easy on the overstretched wedding budget. Plus they went over and above to make me look my best. Use them!!!

ught was the best look for me. She made me look beautiful and glamourous, but I still looked like myself and I photographed well. She was very personable, professional and reliable. I would highly recommend her for any Special Event.

lly. She simply does an amazing job. Not only did the pictures turn out perfectly beautiful, all the make up was very light and looked completely natural - bringing out my best features. The same goes for all the ladies in my bridal party. Everyone was so happy and impressed and I will certainly be using her for any future events. I would recommend her to anyone!

with from other vendors of different sorts. My make-up looked beautiful all day and was exactly what I asked for! Thank you, Reflection Artistry!

sted all day. My mother who hasn't worn makeup since her wedding day looked beautiful and natural. I recommend this team to do anyone's makeup on their special day.

a tremendous job in both my hair and make-up, I received lots of compliments on my wedding day telling me how gorgeous/beautiful I looked! I give her A+ for artistry and creativity! Sarah is truly amazing at what she does and I highly recommend her.

orked with me to create the look I was going for. Day of she was the best. She did 6 women's make up (including the bride) and she did not miss a beat. She was so fun to have with us while we were getting ready. My make up was flawless. My ladies make up was flawless and I could not have wanted anything more. I got so many compliments. I want to have Sarah do my make-up everyday! Hire her and you will not regret it.

of the day and did flawless work with my makeup. I got several complements on my makeup and it held up for the entire night. I was a little nervous booking someone without a trial, but lucky Sarah is extremely talented!
