So happy Yisell was my HMU artist!!

Yisell is amazing. Yisell is so knowledgeable about makeup and hairstyles and is exceptional at her craft. I absolutely loved the way I looked on my wedding day and she made that happen! I also extended the time that she was there at the venue to do a 2nd hairstyle during cocktail hour. It was SOOO worth it! My wedding on December 10, ended up being rainy, 90% humidity and in the 50’s-60’s. My hair was not having it, so having her there for longer to touch up my hair and makeup a little between my first look and the ceremony made me feel confident and comfortable with my hair and makeup. Having her there to do a 2nd hairstyle (from down to a low pony) felt so good after dealing with the humidity and just being warm from being in a huge wedding dress.

Amazing H&MU!!

Yisell was incredible. She took excellent care of me, my bridesmaids, and the moms. She was so fun and did such a great job!! Her assistants were no less excellent, everyone was so pleased with how they looked and everyone's hair and make up held up through a long night of dancing. I know at least one of my bridesmaids will be calling Yisell when it's her turn. Thank you Yisell! Rock on!

The first vendor I knew I had to book

Right after the venue was set, Yisell was the first wedding vendor I booked. She has a bold and confident vibe that I felt I could only dream of having on a day that I’d be having my photo taken tons of times, so I knew I had to book her. I can honestly say now that it was the best decision. Not only does she bring expert-level skill to the art of making you look gorgeous, but she is also so easy to talk to and fun to hang out with. By the time your hair and makeup are done, you don’t just look good but you feel good and comfortable and happy and beautiful–exactly what you need to be confident for all those photos. She’s easy to discuss look ideas with and makes great recommendations; I barely knew what I wanted and she guided me in the right direction, helping me to try new things (like two full packs of extensions) without losing my authentic self. She’s also super professional and communicative, so you can relax knowing that your beauty timelines will be right on schedule the day of. Plus, my bridesmaids loved her and the second stylist she brought along (big shout out to Kristin, she also rocks). We had a great time getting all made up, in no small part because they made it fun. I also spent a large portion of my trial session with her puppy in my lap, so as if this was not already a rave review, it certainly is now.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
