April is amazing!

I cannot recommend my hair and makeup artist enough! From start to finish, she was incredibly professional and easy to work with. Her communication leading up to the wedding was clear, prompt, and reassuring, which made the whole planning process so much smoother.

On the day of, she arrived right on time and got set up quickly without any stress or confusion. She also brought along a hair artist who was equally talented and made the morning so much fun! They worked efficiently while still paying close attention to detail, and somehow managed to get seven girls completely done in what felt like no time at all.

What really stood out was the quality of their work. Everyone looked absolutely beautiful, polished and elevated, but still natural. No one felt overdone or like they were wearing heavy, cakey makeup. It was exactly the look we were hoping for.

On top of everything, her pricing was very fair, especially considering the level of service and the included travel fees. I’m so grateful to have had her be part of our wedding day and would highly recommend her to any bride looking for a talented, reliable, and efficient artist!

Wedding Hair & Makeup

April is amazing! I had my makeup and hair done by April for prom and when it came time to choosing my wedding hair and makeup I had ZERO hesitation of reaching back out. April has a way of making the day even better with her energy and good vibes for the morning of. Her makeup feels weightless while looking absolutely flawless and lasting ALL day and night. She includes you in the entire process to help make your vision come to life and I couldn’t be more grateful! 100/10 recommend her for any special event.

The BEST hair and makeup!

Faces by April did an amazing job. I was so happy with my hair and makeup, along with my mother, mother-in-law, and bridesmaids. Our makeup lasted all night and we looked amazing! Could not be happier with the service!

Mvp of my wedding!

April was recommended to me by a friend when I was looking for a makeup artist for my wedding weekend. When I met her for my trial I thought she was incredible. That doesn’t begin to describe her on the actual wedding day. She was ready to go when she said she would. She finished an hour early doing nine women’s makeup. Beyond professional, talented is an understatement, and a dream to work with. I was so relaxed on my wedding day because of her skill. Everyone in my bridal party looked STUNNING from bridesmaid, grandma to my amazing mother. I would recommend her in a heartbeat for any occasion, ESPECIALLY your wedding ladies!

Best I could’ve hoped for

I found April through a friend and wow- she really is fantastic. She’s friendly, timely and very talented. April is the only person I can confidently say has done my makeup and made me feel gorgeous. She doesn’t just do the same look for everyone- she customizes based on the individual, which surprisingly not everyone does. All of my girls loved her too. Can’t wait to use her in the future for something else.

Amazing artist

April was awesome on my wedding day! We did a destination wedding (from Michigan to Florida) and my hair and makeup trial was done in Michigan as a run through and she was able to use those pictures and inspirations to make me look fabulous on my wedding day! We did hair and makeup for 6 people with her and a team member and I would 100% highly recommend. I received MANY compliments on how well everyone looked.

Thank you!!

April is nothing short of amazing. I described my vision before my trial and she was able to capture everything I wanted. I am not good with having my makeup applied by someone other than myself (watery eyes galore!) and April made the process so easy and her patience really shined through!
