    Liz was amazing. She did my wedding on pretty short notice and was so professional and helpful. My bridesmaids and Moms hair was beautiful and the airbrush makeup she did on us was stunning. It stayed on all night. She also covered a scar that would have been visible through my wedding dress. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for event hair/makeup in the houston area.

    Liz is fantastic! She is very professional and tries to work with your schedule. I only gave a her a general idea of what I wanted for makeup and she did a wonderful job. It was exactly what I wanted, and she did ask me if I wanted to change anything or add anything to let her know. She is so kind and fast.

    Liz Day and Angela are amazing! My daughter had another stylist/artist cancel on her the day before her bridals and Angela did her hair and makeup exactly like she wanted for her bridals (she looked stunning). Liz and Angela helped make the wedding day run smoothly are professional, calm and great to work with. Plus, they travel to venues! We all looked fabulous and I would highly recommend them and/or use them for any event!

    So I heard about Liz from one of my good friends who was one of my bridesmaids! I was having a crisis with my makeup artist and I needed to find a new one asap. My friend helped me out and told me how amazing Liz was and how she did her hair and makeup for her bridal portraits and for her wedding. I decided I would give it a shot and I was not disappointed. Liz and I hit it off immediately. She was so accommodating and professional. She was an absolute pleasure to have as my hair and makeup artist. She did a beautiful job creating my look for my wedding day. I was able to give her a picture from Pinterest and she did a better job than what the picture looked like. On the day of, Liz and her assistant came prepared with all of their materials. My hair and makeup lasted all day!!! Not to mention, so did my bridesmaids. I was so pleased with Liz, I could not recommend her enough. I only wish I had known her sooner so she could have done my engagement pictures! Thank you so much Liz for your fabulous services, I’ll be sure to use you again and again!!

    I am so very grateful for her services. I contacted her one day before my wedding when another hair stylist cancelled on me. She was able to work me in and was very patient on my day of wedding seeing I got lost on the way to venue! Truly a lifesaver. My hair was beautiful lasting throughout the night and a photo shoot at my hotel.

    Thanks again!

    WEBSITE: http://www.hairbyliz.com/ (<-- BEST RATES FOR QUALITY, TOO!)

    Liz and her assistant did such a wonderful job making my wedding day beautiful. I can’t tell you how many people at our wedding commented on our bridal party’s hair, specifically. All of the bridesmaids were in love with their hair & makeup and couldn’t stop talking about how great of a job Liz did. It is truly amazing how talented she is, and impressive how she effortlessly created “red carpet” level styling in such a short amount of time -- whether directed by a mere glance at a photograph or an indecisive explanation by a bridesmaid of the general style sought after.

    In addition to Liz's talents, it meant so much to have hair & makeup artists that morning who were perceptive & extremely dependable. With a morning wedding, the most stressful part of my day was worrying about pre-event prep. Liz arrived not only on-time, but early, and also assured that we were all ready not only with time to spare, but were each given a level of attention that made each girl feel heard and pampered.

    I also so appreciated her attention to detail – both in the look & hold of the style. I was worried that my stubborn bangs would fall out of the up-do mid-day, but she miraculously styled it loosely AND with stellar hold to where that did not happen until I took it down 12 hours later. Liz's talents truly helped shape the day and made me and my girls all shine over how beautiful we all felt. Liz's assistant Sunny also did such a wonderful job on our makeup. It took me a while to find a makeup style I felt would complement our wedding’s theme and colors, while also accentuating my bridesmaid’s natural features at an outside, morning ceremony. Sunny captured the look perfectly and in a way that was unique to each girl's beauty while still keeping the looks uniform enough for a group of bridesmaids and the perfect level of glamour for a bride, with makeup light/natural enough for a morning wedding.

    I was referred to Liz by a friend who was using her for her wedding. She actually did my bridesmaid make up. She showed up on time for my wedding and everyone loved their hair and make up. It lasted all night long!

    She is super cool, friendly and professional. I decided to do my hair and makeup at her location.
    She works very quickly but does an great job. Which is a good thing. I do not like slow pace people when working with my beauty needs. Because if they are good at what they do they work quick and the results come out just right. I did a trial on airbrush makeup. I didn't like how it look on me so decided to do makeup myself. The hair though was perfect. She added extensions (which matched my hair color), lashes and flower/feather headpiece. She also did my mother's hair and one of my bridesmaids hair and makeup . They both were not completely satisfy with the end results. That is why it's so important to do a trial because you might not know if what you want might look good on you. On the other hand, I did get alot of positive feedback on my hair and headpiece on my wedding day! Oh and her prizes were very reasonable.

    Elizabeth Day of Hair by Liz is amazing at what she does. All of my ladies looked stunning for my wedding. There was only one person not satified with their makeup because their foundation was too light in color. It was Liz's helper that did her makeup not Liz herself. That said, overall everyone loved the way they looked and my hair and makeup were flawless throughout the night. I will definitely use her again if I have any other BIG events and will recommend her to everyone I know.

    Liz did my (and my bridal party's) hair and my make up only. She did a great job-my hair never holds a curl, and even though she warned me it may not stand up against the wind outside (we had an outdoor wedding), my hair stayed the entire night and looked great! I loved it. And everything she recommended for my makeup was just perfect. Great job, thanks!

    Liz did my hair for our wedding a few weeks ago along with the rest of my bridal party and everything turned out great! I was a little worried when I contacted her a few weeks out to schedule the time for her to arrive since she had another event on the same day and she would be an hour later than anticipated, but she was very fast and got everyone's hair done with plenty of time to spare. It did feel a little rushed at times but I think everyone looked beautiful!

    Liz was recommended by a friend who had her do the bridal party's hair. I was bit uncertain about her at first because her email responses were very extremely curt. She was nice when I met her for my trial, and attribute the curtness to her being very fast-paced and on-the-go. PRO: she is VERY fast...like can do one person's hair in 20 minutes. CON: I think she defaults to what she is familiar with. I sent her several images that I wanted to pull different elements from to combine, but she ended up really following only one image, which was the most simple of all. I wish she could have slowed down and been more attentive to needs. She made me feel a bit uncomfortable and came off so busy that the client couldn't take a moment to figure out if there are any other changes she'd like. Regarding pricing, it is on par with most other vendors, where more economical options certainly being available with others.

    Overall very sad to say the one vendor I was totally not happy with on my wedding day was my hair and makeup person. Liz has a strange personality and overall is not very friendly. My mom and my sister hated their hair. I hated my makeup and had to fix it myself and do you think she offered to discount anything, NO. Not hapy at all and just based on her personality I would not recommend her to anyone. She charged one of my bridesmaids $50 to pull back a few pieces of her hair and do some knot thing that too literally about 3 minutes. Rediculous. The only good thing I can say is that she was flexible with me as I had a lot of rescheduling due to weather conditions etc.

    Quinceanera Hair Fail

    We celebrated my little girls Quinceanera in October and I contacted Liz for my daughters photo shoot for her to do her hair. She did a good job on her hair for photos, but her hair was falling from the updo after about 45 minutes. I talked to Liz about the hair mishap and she said that she could make sure that she pinned it more for the day of which was fine. I figured I would give her another shot and have her do my other daughters hair as well as mine for the day of, which was October 26th. She arrived at the time she said she would and got started on us. I didn't have any photos of a style I liked so I told her to do curls (my hair is naturally curly so I blow dried it out because that is what she told me to do) My hair when she was done was an absolute mess, my curls were falling out before she was done and the bump or whatever on the back of my head looked like a rats nest. My son and daughter had to completely re-curl my hair for me after she made two more attempts to curl my hair without success. My oldest daughter did have pictures of what she wanted and Liz was unable to do the style she wanted. It was definitely not worth the $260 I paid her for the four of us. The updos for my youngest and my middle daughter were nice but my oldest and myself were 100% disappointed and left very upset to tears with the work she did on us. She basically blamed me for not having a picture for her to work with and not having enough hair/ hair was too thin. I wish she would have just been honest and said she didn't know how to do the work on our hair and we would have looked for someone else. I trusted that as a hair stylist with good reviews for the most part she would come in and do a phenomenal job but she didn't. She seems to only be good with a certain type of hair and can only do one style. As my son in law stated in a previous post I wanted to feel beautiful the day of my last baby's Quinceanera and she didn't do that for me or my daughter.

    Disaster Day

    We had Liz come out and take care of my mother in law and her three daughters hair for an event. Well needless to say all of there hair had to be redone after she left. My mother in law was so upset her response was “I just wanted to feel pretty, and she didn’t make me look pretty.” For the price per person, we could have saved ourself the disappointment and did it ourselves

    Horrible and unprofessional

    I did my wedding hair and make up trial with Liz with "Hair by Liz". She seemed nice, the hair and make up was done and I had mentioned that my hair doesn't stay in curls very well and that I am worried about it falling at the wedding. This was a big concern of mine that was mentioned from the get go. Liz assured me that it would not fall. On the trial day it was falling before she even left and I hadn't even gone outside in the humidity. Liz had sprayed my hair a little bit with product that day and also mentioned that I could move the hair around a little to see if there was something else I liked better (which I didn't really mess with it after she left). When I reached out to her about this concern of mine I was immediately blamed for me not telling her that I was going out that night. The trial cost around $200, my question was if I'm spending that much money why would I not want it to look good for the evening. I had asked her if we could do a re-trial and she said sure but didn't think it was needed and that it would hold on the day of the wedding. I wasn't feeling confident in that and requested a re-trial as wedding planning is already stressful enough that I didn't want to have worries about if she could deliver on the day of the wedding if the trial already didn't go well. I offered this time to come to her so she wouldn't have to travel all the way to me again and I asked if the re-trial which she said would be $50 for just the hair with a discount could be waved since I wasn't feeling confident and felt like the hair should have been done correctly on the first trial. Liz refused my offer. She also mentioned that she by herself would get 5 of us girls' hair and make up done in 3 hours time. I ultimately decided that she would not be a good fit for hair and makeup for our wedding as I just didn't feel confident in her services and felt like I was blamed when I feel like the trial is there to make sure that things will go well on the day of the wedding. Liz ultimately decided that she would not like to lose out on a $50 hair re-trial which in turn made us cancel the entire booking which was close to $1,000 profit that she would have made. I ended up having to restart my search for hair and make up but I was satisfied with this as I didn't want to worry and be disappointed the day of the wedding had it happened again. I was out the hair and make up trial money but in the end found a different company I went with that had 2 people doing hair and make up and said it would be 5 hours time that they would get everyone done (meaning they really take pride in their work and not rush anything). I would not recommend Hair by Liz.
