Would Hire Again & Again

Erica and her team were FANTASTIC! From the moment I booked them—1.5 years before my wedding—I knew I was in the best hands. Erica is laser-focused on making sure every bride gets exactly what they envision. She helped me clearly articulate my hair and makeup goals, guided me through adjustments at the trial, and fine-tuned every detail so the final look was exactly what I wanted.
She and her team are warm, approachable, and instantly make you, the moms, and the entire bridal party feel comfortable—like they’re part of the gang. When I found out last-minute that we couldn’t get into the venue as early as planned, Erica jumped on the phone with me and seamlessly rearranged the HMU schedule to fit everyone in, while prioritizing what would keep me calm and confident. She is both transparent and clever—managing moms, bridal party members, and even venue staff in a way that keeps the bride blissfully shielded from any stress.
On my wedding day, I could not believe how amazing I looked and felt! I still find myself looking back at photos, STUNNED by how incredible every single bridesmaid looked. I had worried about regretting aspects of my hair or makeup, but Erica and her team delivered perfection—no compromises, no doubts, just pure joy.
A special shout-out to Devon, who helped me decide to get extensions for the style I wanted. She & Erica gave me clear instructions on why I would (or wouldn’t) want them, where to buy them and how to prep them, making the whole process stress-free. On the big day, Devon pivoted several times with my hairstyle to ensure it was exactly what I envisioned, all without making me feel rushed or anxious about time.
Erica Does Makeup made me feel like a PRINCESS on my wedding day, and I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Their combination of talent, professionalism, and genuine care is unmatched. Brides—book them and trust them. You’ll be thrilled you did!

Amazing Hairstylist & Company to work with

I loved working with Erica Does Makeup for my bridal hair & for the bridal party. I only did hair, because I had already booked a makeup artist. Erica & Cam are such a delight to work with, flexible & friendly - and offer the best wedding planning advice I felt like I was brought into their family. My first hair trial didnt go well (i have a lot of hair) and they were quick to find me a new stylist and get another trial. Devon was my final stylist and WOW - such an impressive stylist. My wedding was in the middle of July and it was hot & muggy - everyone's hair lasted so freaking well it was beyond impressive. I had a updo and it looked just as beautiful at the end of the night. Book!

Crossed Keys Wedding

Erica and her team were a huge part in helping make my wedding as perfect as it was! They traveled to my apartment for the trial hair and makeup and were so lovely to talk to. They even gave some welcomed wedding advice during the stressful planning process. From the very early morning start on the big day we had a fun energy that made getting ready for what’s sometimes a nervous/stressful day both easy and fun. We had 13 people get hair and makeup done and Erica and her team were efficient and effective in making sure everyone got the look they wanted, and that they looked BEAUTIFUL! I highly recommend Erica Does Makeup for any event or wedding needs.

Beautiful makeup and gorgeous hair styling

Erica and Gina made me look absolutely beautiful on my wedding day. As an Indian, it is hard to find makeup artists who don’t make your skin look too yellow and who knows complimentary makeup colors. But Erica was amazing and her makeup was spot on for me. Furthermore, Gina was awesome at styling my hair. I had gotten fresh baby’s breath and a floral comb from my wedding florist and Gina did an amazing job placing them in my hair, they stayed put for over 12 hours! They both made me look like a princess for my fairytale wedding. The whole team is amazing, Cam was responsive to all my messages and awesome at keeping me updating with timing. I highly recommend Erica Does Makeup if you want your dream makeup done right! I can’t thank Erica, Gina & Cam enough!

The best hair and makeup team out there!

Erica and Devon were AMAZING and I am so glad they were a part of my wedding day. I can honestly say I’ve never felt more beautiful than I did after Erica and Devon did my hair and makeup. They really understood what I wanted, had so many great suggestions, and brought my vision to life. All my bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother-in-law had equally great experiences, and Erica and Devon went above and beyond to make sure everyone loved the way they looked. They are so patient, talented and professional! And I have to add that they really do have the best energy and were SO fun to have with us all morning as we got ready. I really cannot recommend Erica Does Makeup enough!

Best Experience with Erica & Crystal!

I first met Erica and Crystal when they did my make up and hair at a friend's wedding back in 2018. Without a doubt, I knew that I wanted them for my own wedding. I got married on August 26, 2021 and Erica and Crystal did an AMAZING job. They worked quickly and efficiently and created beautiful looks for myself, the moms and bridesmaids. I would HIGHLY recommend them.

Easy Recommendation 1000 times

I am the groom in me and my wife's wedding, we got married on August 27th, 2021. Erica Does Makeup's team was (is) easily my favorite team to work with. Of the team, we worked with Cam (back and forth through email answering questions), Erica (makeup), and Julia (hair stylist) - Crystal helped as well (hair stylist assistant)
We knew alone just from viewing Erica Does Makeup's photos of what their art looks like that they were the team we'd be going with. Our first consultation meeting with Erica was a cherry on top of their amazing first impression!
Cam was nothing short of amazing with very fast, lively, and detailed responses - she was an absolute pleasure to work with and helped us with so many questions we had (and we had a lottt of questions!) and she always answered them with kindness and patience
Erica & Julia are both incredible at what they do - masters of their craft. My wife was looking for a natural look for Asian features and Erica certainly delivered that enhancing natural beauty sooo exceptionally well! Julia had everyone's hair looking gorgeous and sooo good. We received so many compliments and requests for the team's information for their own weddings and we have absolutely no problem backing this team and recommending them
While we did pay for Erica do re-do my wife's makeup after the ceremony, Erica was SO helpful throughout the whole day in helping my wife to stay calm and to also kindly move things along for everything to be on schedule. After the ceremony, she also assisted so much in carefully guiding my wife's dress along and being on the lookout for things that need to be slightly fixed like making sure my wife's hair looked great and was placed perfectly for photos etc. Erica really has any client's back and she looked out for us!!
I am not surprised at all at this team's high reviews - they deliver such high quality and excellent service on all levels - this is such an easy recommendation from us!

Thank you!!!!

I dont have the words to thank Erica for her kindness, help getting ready & for making me feel like the most beautiful bride. From the start i knew i was hiring the right person because of how responsive Cam was, & when i had to postpone due to Covid they were so accommodating & made sure to give me a spot on my new date. The day of my trial Erica & I shared stories, laughed.. truly such an easy going chilled person who truly just wanted me to feel & look beautiful, wedding day came and she did just that! My whole bridal party just told me how funny & easy going she was & how they loved their makeup. Erica even stayed behind; helped me with the final touches before i headed out the door (not just makeup wise) that just goes to show her heart, how much of a caring person she is. Thank you Erica & team, forever will be grateful.. glad i made a friend out of this experience as well ❤️

I felt like the best version of myself!

I’m so happy that I found Erica and Angel to help make my wedding makeup and hair dreams come true! They were so professional and really made me feel comfortable durning my at home trial. Their prices were really fair and accommodating, especially since I didn’t have a whole wedding party (a lot of other vendors wanted at least 3 or more people or they wouldn’t show up). They arrived early morning on my wedding day (I had an 11am ceremony) and stayed until everything was perfect. I truly felt like the best version of myself, plus both the hair and makeup lasted all day and night! It felt beautiful in person, but in the photos everything was even more stunning!

Erica does more than just makeup

Erica truly has my back the entire day! When a few thing went a miss the day of, Erica literally stepped in to help find a solution and solve the problem. She went above and beyond to not only ensure that my hair and makeup was what I wanted but also that I was taken care of that day. She is truly amazing - like the extra bridesmaid you never knew you needed on your big day. Would recommend her to anyone and everyone.
