I’ve never felt more beautiful

Honestly, Nia was amazing ! She showed up on time, and was very professional, and knew how to calm my emotions. The first time i seen my face after she was done i wanted to cry. I never felt so beautiful in my life than my wedding day. She worked her magic.

Nia is a professional gem

Nia is absolutely wonderful to work with! She listened to my exact wants, made sure I was happy with the trial (changed anything I asked her to- but didn’t need to change much as she’s very good at what she does).
Below is a picture on my wedding day (5/5/23). I wanted natural beauty and she delivered!

Hire Nia for any event!!

Nia is an absolute gem. Not only is she extremely talented at her craft, she is one of the kindest and sweetest humans around. Nia goes out of her way to make her clients feel comfortable and supported. She completely listens to what you want and is beyond meticulous with making that look happen for you. I am so grateful to have had her for my engagement photos and my wedding day this past weekend! Everyone who saw her looked amazing. Thank you so much, Nia!! You are the best! XO C

Happy happy happy!

I had an appointment with Nia this past Saturday. I'm having a destination wedding so I wanted to get the right look and learn to apply it myself, since it's a risk trying someone new right on wedding day.
The makeup lesson was so much fun! Nia is professional, warm and friendly, and really encouraging! Going in I felt kind of awkward because my makeup application skills are so rudimentary (and sometimes makeup people can be a little snobby?) but Nia was the opposite and made me feel really comfortable and I was completely at ease. I felt pampered!
My friends were wowed by the result and said I look "so beautiful, and just like you but heightened" which is exactly what I wanted. Not overdone, yet glamorous and elegant.
We used my own blush and eyebrow pencil, and different products for the rest, which made sense to me because I was going for a wedding-day look and my own makeup products are for everyday in terms of color, etc. There was no pressure to buy anything.

I highly recommend making an appointment with Nia! My eyes in particular have never looked better!

Delightful


I can't say enough great things about my experience with Nia regarding my wedding hair and makeup trial.

For months I was undecided on what look I wanted and really spent hours stressing over it. I didnt want "natural" nor did I want un-natural. I was having a hard time with the updos because I have long hair and never wear my hair up. It doesn't look like me and I don't feel beautiful with my hair up. I read a lot of great reviews about Nia and decided to reach out through Yelp. Nia promptly responded and provided clear cut information about the services, so I booked my trial.
Nia welcomed my fiance' and myself in and I was super at ease talking to her and showing her my inspiration pictures. Nia’s personality is delightful and she is so full of radiant energy, which is what I want on my wedding day! When I saw myself in the mirror, it was like all the stress and worry melted away. I truly felt so beautiful and glamorous! I do wear makeup but it is NOT the same as having it airbrushed and done by a Professional. The look on my fiancés face (that "wow" moment) when he saw me made my eyes tear up but my makeup stayed put. Nia got the perfect look for me and it was exactly what I wanted on the first try. I spent the rest of my day walking around San Francisco and went out at night and my hair and makeup still looked beautiful.

I am now looking forward to my wedding day with confidence. Thank you Nia! I highly recommend Nia and her sweet positive energy.

I wanted to feel this beautiful EVERY day!


Nia is the best hair/makeup artist ever! I've always been skeptical about makeup artists because no one has ever done my eyes right. I'm one of those girls that have the top eyelids that fold under, so I always draw a thick line at the top of my lids. I was pleasantly surprised at how Nia amazingly made my eyes look bigger without looking droopy! Nia did my hair and makeup for my wedding and all of my events.
I had friends who gave me recommendations for other hair/makeup artists, but I never went with any of them. When I saw Beyond Beauty's website I knew I had to give her a try. I would recommend doing a trial if you've never had your makeup done before. One last thing about Nia - I was impressed that she knew what type of hair I had just by looking at me from across the desk.

Ladies, you will not be disappointed! I will definitely hire Nia to do my hair and makeup again. Thanks Nia for making me look beautiful for my wedding reception!

Nia is amazing!

If you are looking for someone easy to work with for your wedding day or any occasion that needs a little glam? Nia is great! She did my hair for my wedding day as well as the makeup for several family members. She also did my hair and makeup for a photoshoot I did a few days after the wedding.

Several things I appreciated about Nia:
- She was very professional and organized
- She took her time with the hair trial, making sure I was happy with the way it was looking
- The day of the wedding, she arrived on time and stayed on schedule
- She was easy to work with and answered my emails promptly
- She can do a variety of styles (for makeup she can do more traditional and natural looks as well as more dramatic looks). She also does the airbrushing makeup, which looked so good!
- She worked with the ideas that I had for my hair but also had good suggestions on how she thought my hair would look the best (we did a style of my choosing for the wedding day, then I let her do whatever she wanted for my photo session and both hairstyles received a lot of compliments)

I would highly recommend Nia to anyone looking for a talented hair/makeup artist in the Bay Area.

Nia is awesome!

It was wonderful to work with Nia. Let's start with her talents. She's a phenomenal hair and make-up artist. She allowed me to experiment with a drastic look during my trial (I highly recommend a trial--I had a destination wedding and scheduled a trial a couple days before the big day), and then she encouraged me to share my thoughts and then adjusted my make-up until it was perfect. I ended up with a pouty, bright red lip and smoky eyes--I loved it! My bridesmaids loved their looks, and she did wonders with my mom, who had damaged hair from a perm gone awry. She's also got a great personality for working with brides and bridal parties. She's calm, knowledgeable and patient, without being patronizing or demanding, and she and her assistant were just great to hang out with. I couldn't have imagined a better "getting ready" experience. And I felt beautiful! Many thanks, NIA!!! You are good people. I highly recommend her for any occasion.

Nia was great! Our hair and makeup stayed all night and I even woke up in the morning and my hair was still intact. She is especially great for girls with blemishes or breakouts because she makes your skin look absolutely flawless! We kept getting great compliments from everyone and everyone looked like a model.

If you're looking for a make-up artist that's professional, affordable, and gets the job done the exact way you want it, then Nia and her team is exactly who you should book for your Big Day.

Since I'm asian, I was a little skeptical on how my make-up was going to turn out during my trial session. It's a little tricky when you don't have much of a double eyelid. Not only did Nia exceed my expectations, I ended up booking her for my engagement shoot and the Wedding Day. Another plus...she's efficient. Nia and her two assistants got our make-up and hair done with more than enough time to spare on the wedding day. There was only 3 of them, and 8 of us.

I've referred two other friends to Nia already and they've booked her for their weddings as well. I highly recommend brides at least testing it out through a trial session. You won't be disappointed! Let's just say I'll be booking Nia again if I need to glam it up for a special occasion in the future.
