Pamela was awesome to work with. As someone who doesn’t normally wear makeup, I was stressed about finding the right fit for my wedding day. Pamela was that. She is easy going, calm, and truly listens to her clients. Her team also reflects that. I felt so confident with my hair and makeup, and still felt like myself!

Gavi! It was a joy to see your final bridal look after having done the trial so long ago! You were fabulous, as was your entire group. So happy for you!
Pamela was a fantastic and calming presence on my wedding day. She was easy to work with from the very beginning, sending me all the information needed to make an informed decision to book her services. The price was more than affordable for an NYC HMUA.
I have LOTS of freckles and she helped me find a bridal style that allowed the freckles to shine on my wedding day.
We had a VERY early start at 6am for an 11am wedding and she accommodated my HMUA, as well as my mom and MIL. Even in a small hotel room, she got the job done and kept us all calm on the day.
Can't say enough great things about Pamela.

Oh, Emily! You were such a joy to work with! I'm so happy that you felt so confident and beautiful! Thank you for trusting in me!
Pamela and her team completely knocked it out of the park. Everyone in our party looked absolutely stunning and the care towards each individual look was top tier. The entire process was beyond seamless and we received so many compliments on the makeup and hair, many of which requesting Pamela’s info!
One of the best parts about Pamela and her team is how comfortable they made everyone feel. They made a point to start conversations with who was in the chair and laughter filled the entire room. We highly recommend Pamela and her team and are so grateful for their wonderful work on our big day.

And I am so grateful to YOU and your amazing gang of wonderful people who made our jobs so fun and enjoyable!!! 'Twas a great day, indeed!
Any questions?
Pamela Bob and her team is a dream team! They were really amazing and wonderful people. They were very professional, arrived earlier of the call time on my wedding day. They did 9 hair and makeup and they finished it smoothly, on time and finished it with great outcome. We all love their service on us! I would highly recommend them and I will for sure have them again if I need hair and makeup for events.

Cindy! I am so touched- You and your party were absolutely wonderful - so kind and easy to work with (and you all have the best hair EVER!). So happy you were so thrilled with your look, and everyone else's look. It was a total pleasure!
I am so so happy I found Pamela for my wedding day. Not only is she a super talented makeup artist and hair stylist, she is also a very friendly, personable, nonjudgmental person- the exact type of person you want on your team on your big day. I had two makeup trials leading up to the wedding as I kept changing my mind about what I wanted and she pulled off both styles flawlessly. Day of the wedding I decided I wanted to try a different hairstyle from the one I did for the trial and I knew I could trust her to put together a gorgeous hairstyle on the fly. What I love most about Pamela’s work is that she is truly gifted at bringing out everyone’s unique and natural beauty with makeup. Everyone in my bridal party has different facial features and nobody had the same makeup style; everyone’s makeup was perfectly suited to their face and we were all able to enter the wedding feeling beautiful and confident. She especially made my mom feel her prettiest when my mom is not a big makeup wearer. Thank you so much Pamela!!! I would recommend her to anyone!!!

Jacqueline! You and your party were so wonderful! I enjoyed every second we had together-both trials were so fun, and your energy and kindness were always appreciated. And I will always remember your mom's face when she saw her face in the mirr...
or after I did her makeup-Priceless! So happy for you! Thanks for being great!
I. LOVE. Pamela. She is incredible. From the minute we met at my trial, she instantly had this calming presence that made me want to tell her every detail about my life :). She is kind, fun, organized, flexible, and great at what she does. I was in love with my hair and makeup look, and it stayed all day! She also did the hair for 5 bridesmaids and my mom, and brought an assistant Alexa to do their makeup. Everyone looked great! No one's makeup was too cakey or hair too crunchy, they looked like elevated versions of themselves. Pamela kept us on schedule, helped me with last minute changes, and was really more of a friend who was hanging out with me on my wedding morning than anything else. I would recommend her wholeheartedly and would definitely work with her again!

STEPHANIE! You were so wonderful from the start, and I thank YOU for making ME feel so welcome! Your day was so fun and I am so honored to have had a part in it. YAY!!! XO
Pam is amazing - her energy, her talent and her genuine love for people and her job make her a truly wonderful professional to work with. Pam did our makeup for my wedding and transformed my ladies into beauties. Her work is understated yet glamourous. She also added such a fun vibe to make our getting ready a truly memorable experience. I would highly recommend Pam's work to anyone wanting to look and feel their best - thank you Pam for being you and for your help in making our wedding absolutely beautiful.

Gigi!!! Thanks to you and your wonderful family for being so kind and welcoming! It was such an honor to be a part of your day! You made my time with you all very special and rewarding.
Pamela was fantastic! My girls and I all looked amazing, and it held through the day. I really didn't want to take it off because it looked so nice! Hair & makeup were on point the whole day. It was also such a relaxed experience as if you were just having a friend come by to do your hair and makeup. would definitely recommend!

Brittany!!! Thank you so much for this lovely review - You and your gals win 1st prize in being the chillest group EVER! I had so much fun with you all, it was such an honor to be a part of your incredible day. Hugs!!!
Look your best on your wedding day! Pamela will make it happen. Supremely happy I chose to work with her. Pamela was very easy to schedule, and gave me exactly the look I wanted for both my engagement shoot and my wedding day. I was a an elegant Hollywood glamourpuss on the big day- glowing and red-carpet ready, just as I had hoped. Pamela also did my mother and sister, and they were knockouts.
Read her description and you will get a perfect sense of her sensibility and what she does amazingly well. I wish there was a way to post photos, but instead, I'll just say HIRE HER!

Chrissy! I loved working with you! Thank you for being such a kind and wonderful bride! Your look was inspirational and WOW WOW WOW and I am so honored I had even just a little bit to do with the final look. Bravo to you!!! XOXO
HIRE PAMELA. It will be the best decision of your whole wedding. Pamela and Ebone showed up to the bridal suite with the very best attitude and energy and made all of us look phenomenal. And at the end of the night? Everyone’s hair still looked amazing. I truly do not have enough good things to say about Pamela!
From the first moment that we spoke, Pamela completely understood what I was looking for, was so easy to get in touch with, and was so organized in helping me to make a schedule to keep the day running on schedule.
Seriously… hire her!!!
Response from the Vendor on 11/23/2021
Allie, thank you so much for your kind words. It was such a fun day, and you and your bridal party were a joy to work with! Cheers to you on your wonderful day!!!
Pamela was prompt, professional and most importantly she did an amazing job! I felt like I looked like ME, only prettier. Plus, I didn’t feel like I had an inch of makeup on my face. Which I’m pretty sure I did, but I didn’t feel it! I only knew it because some of it rubbed off on my mask 😷
My hair was exactly what we talked about, and it looked great all night!
Pamela was also a great energy to have around my sister as she prepared for her big day. She was funny, calm, organized and just a joy to be around. 5/5 would hire again!
Response from the Vendor on 06/07/2021
Thank you so much, Carly-but YOU and your sister were the joy to be around! You made my day so enjoyable! Thrilled for you and your sister and so honored to have taken just a little part of making the day super special. :)
Pamela is AMAZING!!!! She’s sooo talented and has such a great aura about her. She really took the time to listen to what I wanted and created an awesome look that felt so genuine to me, both for makeup and hair. I asked her for a fishtail braid and she even took time to practice on her 12 year old neighbor just to make sure she’d be ready to do my hair on the big day. Pamela has a great demeanor. She kept me feeling so calm on a very hectic morning. My makeup was my favorite part of my whole wedding day look and that’s because of Pamela’s ability to make it look flawless. I couldn’t recommend her more. You will not be disappointed!! I did airbrush with her and it lasted all day and night through a 90 degree NYC sweltering day. She’s got SKILLS!!
Response from the Vendor on 06/07/2021
Lindsey!!! Thank you so much for being such a wonderful bride! I had the best time with you and your sister--and AW YEAH, the makeup lasted in 91 degree NYC heat, baby! So happy for you! :)
I cannot speak highly enough of Pamela Bob, of Who Does Your Makeup-Bridal. My mom and I are both women who do not wear a lot of make up on a regular basis (my mother, hardly ever anything but some lipstick) and we were both nervous about not looking like ourselves if we had professional make up done. Pamela listened to us, heard our wishes and concerns, and enabled us both to look like the most beautiful versions of ourselves . She made sure we had the right make up for pictures, to stand out on this special day, while still appearing natural. Honestly, we both felt comfortable and gorgeous at the same time. I could not recommend Who Does Your Makeup more highly!!!
When I met Pamela I had already been through 2 other Makeup trials with other artists. I needed an Uber natural, no-makeup makeup look, but the other artists left me looking cakey and not myself. I started thinking maybe I was looking for the impossible. In walks Pamela. In minutes she was able to make me feel beautiful and fresh—exactly what I had envisioned. She is also super fun to be around and I appreciated her care and attention to detail. I felt 100% confident on my wedding day- as did my mom and bridesmaids! Can not recommend her enough.
Pamela was a dream to work with! Communicative, easy to get a hold of, so sweet and most importantly GREAT at her job. She looked at my inspo pics and made it happen, and didn’t judge me when day of I said ok I want a bold lip! All my bridesmaids and my mom loved working with her too. She’s a joy! 10/10 recommend.
Response from the Vendor on 10/29/2019
Thank you, Caitlin! You were a vision that day! And the bold lip was the right choice! Hahaha!!!
I cannot rave enough about Pamela. She is a brilliant makeup artist and hair stylist, but I think it is her energy itself that makes her stand out from the rest. A calming, grounded energy with a great sense of humor—much needed on a nervous bride and bridesmaids! She made me look incredible (boho Smokey with a touch of glam) and feel calm and collected. Thank you so much!
If you are looking for an incredibly talented makeup artist (and who isn’t?!) Pamela is the right choice for you! I showed her a few hair/MU inspiration photos and she worked her magic to help transform me into the bride of my dreams! She brought along 2 other talented hair/MU artists for my giant bridal party and we even finished ahead of schedule. I felt absolutely beautiful and most importantly- I still looked like myself! Pamela will bring out your natural beauty, instead of covering you up. Another plus- she has great taste in music and is SO fun to work with!! :) THANK YOU, PAMELA!!
Response from the Vendor on 10/29/2019
Brittany!!! You were an absolute joy to work with! And a great wedding style vision with your 2 different hair looks- I was living my own fantasy through you! 🙌😂😘
Pamela is the best! She transformed me from bridge troll to trophy wife in an hour and my wedding photos look incredible. She made up those with very different age ranges, skin tones, and face shapes and we all looked great. Thanks again, PB!
Response from the Vendor on 10/25/2019
Thank you so much, Ashley! You were a real beauty inspiration for me—edgy boho bride. So awesome 👏
Pamela was a sweetheart doing my hair and makeup during my trial and day of the wedding. She listened to what I wanted and instantly understood what I was describing (even if the description was “You know, like Jennifer Lawrence” lol). We had a great time getting ready for my wedding, and it was a very smooth process. I don’t generally wear too much on a daily basis, but the makeup she did really highlighted my favorite features. I was able to get married confidently because I knew I looked great!
Working with Pamela Bob was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding! I was not a huge make up person at the time - although I am now, possibly because of my awesome experiences with her?! I was going for a natural, vintage-inspired bridal look, so I wanted to work with someone who could give me a touch of glam without going over the top. She wound up being such a wonderful presence on our big day, bringing a warm, easygoing vibe, positive attitude and fantastic sense of humor. Not only did she do my bridal look, but she also did makeup for my mom, sister, mother-in-law & aunt-in-law - all women of various ages and skin tones. Needless to say, getting our makeup done was a special occasion for all of us, and Pamela made us feel comfortable and beautiful all day and night long!
I could not have imagined a better pre-wedding makeup experience! For context, I am not a makeup person. I wear eye liner occasionally and for special events will put on a bit more, but was ready for something somewhat different for my wedding. In came Pamela! She quickly "got" me and did a light and very beautiful job to rave reviews. She then did my mom's makeup also to rave reviews. She was approachable, funny, and down to earth. I can still picture her arriving at my parents' house early in the morning and drinking their instant coffee while making us laugh, doing our makeup, and showing a lot of excitement for the day. I am very thankful and you will be too.

Thank you, Shira! I loved being with you and your family!
There is not one, tiny, itty bitty part of me that regrets having Pamela with me on my wedding day. She was punctual, respectful, and lots of fun. She made me look and feel special while I still looked and felt like myself. I was comfortable, confident, and cared for. She enhanced my best qualities without covering me up and, for someone who normally cringes at the notion of wearing make up, she still made me feel like my best, natural self. This held true for my make up wearing mother and bridesmaids as well. We were all very happy.
Response from the Vendor on 05/02/2019
Thank you, Sarah! What a special day that was!
“Not only is Pamela an incredibly talented makeup artist, she is also a joy to be around. She listened to my wish to "look like myself but rested" when she asked what I was thinking for my makeup. Pamela's calm and supportive presence (with a good dose of spot-on humor) was a most welcome addition to the pre-wedding process for this low-key bride. A friend at the wedding said, "you and your bridesmaids all look so beautiful because you look like yourselves!"
