About

Hello there! My name is Rhea Policarpio and I’m the proud owner of Etherheal Beauty Salon. Welcome to my space! I have been in the beauty industry since 2011 and I have to say I LOVE my job! My passion has always been creating beautiful artistry whether it be hair, makeup or interior spaces.

My artistry started out as a hobby back in high school. I would always be doing hair and makeup for school dances and special events. In college I graduated with a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Interior Design.

Unfortunately, the recession in 2008 had me jobless and second guessing my career path. What a blessing in disguise! I decided to go back to cosmetology school.

I graduated from Arlington Academy with a Cosmetology License in 2011. I have grown so much throughout the years and have met so many unforgettable brides along the way. I’ve trained with some of the most prestigious makeup artist of our times including Makeup by Mario and Gregory Arlt.
My team now consists of 7 talented and experienced hair and makeup artist. We offer on site and in salon services. We are detail oriented, professional and our brides are our number one priority!
My all-time favorite quote is “If you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.”
All the best,Rhea Policarpio

Wedding Day Makeup

Rhea is truly exceptional. She did my makeup for both my engagement photos and my wedding day, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or result. From the very first appointment, she made me feel comfortable, listened carefully to what I wanted, and brought my vision to life flawlessly.

For my engagement shoot, the makeup was fresh, radiant, and photographed beautifully. On my wedding day, Rhea absolutely exceeded all expectations—my makeup was timeless, elegant, and lasted perfectly from start to finish through every tear, hug, and celebration. I felt like the best version of myself.

Beyond her incredible talent, Rhea is calm, professional, and such a joy to be around. Having her with me on such important days made the entire experience stress-free and special. I received endless compliments, and I honestly couldn’t have been happier.

If you’re looking for a makeup artist who is skilled, attentive, and genuinely cares about making you feel beautiful, Rhea is the one. I would recommend her a thousand times over

10/10 recommend

Rhea and her team helped make my wedding day perfect! They arrived early and were flexible with the bridal suite seating logistics. They listened to all of the bridal party's makeup inspo, but somehow made the inspo come to life, but even better than we could have imagined! By far the best makeup I have ever gotten done, and I have been in tons of weddings. Highly recommend for anyone! Let makeup be one less thing you have to stress about on your big day!

The best✨💄

Rhea, the owner of Etherheal Beauty, is the best at what she does! She and her team made me feel so beautiful and glamorous for my wedding day. Before the big day, Rhea took notes on the hairstyle and makeup I wanted during the trial. For the actual day, my bridemaids, mom, and mother-in-law were able to get ready at her salon. They setup a table for us to place our breakfast that morning and really made sure we were comfortable getting ready. Her team exceeded our expectations with all of the hair and makeup looks!! Etherheal Beauty really goes ABOVE & BEYOND for their clients. I HIGHLY recommend!!

Rhea and Dana are amazing!

Rhea and team were all wonderful to work with for my bid day! We had a total of 9 people that needed hair and makeup. Rhea was very flexible with me and was able to get our schedules sorted on a very short notice. I truly appreciate her, the team, and their input. They listened to what I wanted and delivered on that. Thank you all!

Great service - organized and professional

Rhea and her team did an amazing job to make me feel my best on my wedding day! There were a total of nine bridesmaids, one mother of the bride, one flower girl, and myself who all got our hair and makeup done my Rhea's team. The things I loved the most about working with Rhea was her organization when it came to the schedule and making payments, and that her team was on time and listened to everyone's wishes. I have been a bridesmaid in seven weddings where we have all gotten our hair and makeup done professionally, and Rhea's team was by far the most organized. They came to the house, kept things moving along, and were neat and tidy. All of my bridesmaids expressed how happy they were with their hair and makeup, and no one felt like they needed to make any changes after the team was done with them. I highly recommend you book Rhea and her team to work their magic on your wedding day!

Amazing team!

Rhea and her team did an absolute amazing job with hair and makeup for my wedding! The team was super professional and on time. They brought a fun vibe that made getting ready a blast. I love how attentive they were to details for hair and makeup and everyone in my bridal party loved their look. My bridal look specifically was exactly what I wanted and more! My hair also made it through the day and night! This team is awesome and you can tell that they all work so well together! Thank you so much Rhea and team for everything! You guys were a vital part of my wedding day look and you guys absolutely knocked it out of the park!

You will be a beautiful bride!

Rhea and her team truly helped me look the way I wanted to! I am not one to wear makeup every day so I wanted to look natural and not too done up. When given a time frame for when I needed everything done, they stayed on task and had everyone done and ready for go time on time. You will not be disappointed with your choice!

While others take forever to reach out,Rhea is always there quickly responding to any question you might have. I only got my hair done for this occasion but will be trying out makeup as well next time too.

Wouldn’t have trusted my big day to anyone else!

Rhea and her team did an amazing job on hair and makeup for our wedding last year! Rhea is a perfectionist, so any bride is in good hands with her. I have a ton of hair, so it can be hard to style, but this was not a problem for Rhea. As a person who doesn’t wear a lot of makeup, it was important to me to feel natural in my bridal makeup, and that was absolutely the case. I would recommend Etherheal Beauty to anyone!
