I could not recommend Susanna of MG Hair & Makeup enough. She really listened to me when I told her what I was looking for and was even willing to come out for two trials to ensure I really loved the hair and makeup. On the day of my wedding, not only did I truly feel like the most gorgeous version of myself but my best friends looked stunning as well. Susanna is also just such a truly sweet and wonderful human being—she was a beautiful addition to our day. And MG Hair & Makeup is the best as well. They made it so easy to book and were extremely flexible and great to work with. Basically, if you’re looking for a level-up of your natural beauty or a whimsical boho wedding look, Susanna is your gal! I was THRILLED with the final result!

I did a same day service with no trial. Although I was a little nervous, Meg was great! She arrived on time and had reviewed the photos I sent. She listened to everything I asked for and really did a beautiful job! Also Denise was so responsive and helpful with emails weeks leading up to the big day !

I had an exceptional experience with MG Hair & Makeup from start to finish. Their online booking gave me plenty of opportunity to give specific direction and preferences, and their response time is great. I was able to lock in my wedding day hair & makeup within 24 hours of reaching out, and there was plenty of follow up between then and the wedding day so I always felt reassured that everything was going to go as planned. I appreciate how communicative and thorough they are.

Their professionalism, particularly during these unusual times, was amazing. I felt extremely comfortable having an hair & makeup artist in my home after reading through all the safety precautions that MG Hair & Makeup is taking - to protect both their customers and their staff.

Gianna was on time, friendly, and extremely talented - I requested simple makeup and an up do for my daytime wedding, and Gianna took a lot of time talking through different options and reviewing examples to make sure we were on the same page. She also put a lot of effort into matching the foundation to my skin tone perfectly (as I am very fair), which I really appreciated. She gave me plenty of opportunities to review as she worked, so I could give further direction. I never needed to because she did a beautiful job!

Overall I was incredibly impressed with the level of service I received, both from the central booking team, and from the artist herself. I'd highly recommend MG Hair & Makeup to anyone!

I’ve known Meg for years and was so excited for her to do my hair and makeup for my wedding. She’s an incredible person with the biggest heart, and extremely talented. She listened to my vision and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day! I was very particular about using fake lashes in that I didn’t want them to be too dramatic but just enough to create a full, natural, beautiful look, and she gave me the best lashes I’ve ever had. I also had a specific vision for my hair and she nailed it. Her team did my girls, mom and mother in law’s hair and makeup as well and everyone looked amazing! I would highly recommend Meg and her team who have been in the business for years, are in the know on all the best beauty brands, styles and trends, and will make you feel incredible on your day.

I was over the moon with the service I received from MG Hair & Makeup. The artist arrived promptly and I loved both my hair and makeup. The artist really listened to what I wanted and captured the look I had in mind perfectly. She was also super friendly which was a bonus. I would highly recommend MG Hair & Makeup!

I'm very happy I worked with MG for my wedding day. Coordinating everything from the beginning to the end with Denise was very easy; she answered emails immediately and I felt very taken care of throughout the entire process. I had the pleasure of working with MG's artist Gianna & I'm very lucky to have gotten her to be my girl for the day. She showed up to my trial early & ready to go. Both my mom & I had her do our hair and make up and we both felt gorgeous at the end of it and a nice plus was that she's just a doll- so of course, she was our girl! She gave me skin care advice, long lasting lip stick/stain suggestions & we emailed back and forth leading up to the day and she was more than happy to answer any skin/makeup/hair questions I had. She's very knowledgable & took time to write out thoughtful responses to my questions, which I really appreciated. The day of was so relaxing having her by my side. She knew exactly the look I was going for & executed it perfectly, also telling me how beautiful she thought I was all day & I know that added a ton of smiles to my photographs and video! She was my cheerleader :) I added extra hours for touch ups because I knew I'd be crying a lot throughout the day haha, but I barely needed any touch ups because the final product at the beginning of the day was so solid! Having her there for my special day felt like having another friend getting ready with us. Also (this is not about hair or make up) but right before the ceremony, we realized I had no one to fluff out my train before walking down the aisle and without even hesitating, Gianna said, "I'll do it!" So not only is she a super talented hair and make up artist, but she's a great team player and jumped into a position that she absolutely was not obligated to jump into. Artist Vanessa was the 2nd artist we had working on my bridal party and she also did a fabulous job, making everyone look beautiful. All of my girls felt beautiful and that absolutely radiated throughout their smiles. I will definitely be working with Gianna in the future whenever I need to feel like a princess again and if you can get her for your big day- do it!! You will be very very happy with your results :)

I waited until the last minute to book hair and make-up for my August 2018 wedding. I reached out to several vendors, and MG was by far the most responsive and reasonably priced. I was a little nervous because they wouldn't show me Julia's portfolio before I booked. But the 4-hour trial run was very helpful. On the day of the wedding, Julia was a ROCK STAR. She stayed on schedule, stayed focused, listened to everyone's wishes and concerns, and delivered. I was SO HAPPY with my hair and make-up. Everything stayed in place and perfect until the end of the night. Thank you, JULIA!

My bridal party and I had the best experience with the team from MG Hair and Makeup. Rebecca, Stella and Michelle were all awesome and gave everyone looks they loved. Also, Denise who coordinated everything was amazing to work with! So responsive and accommodating. I could not have asked for a better hair and makeup experience for my wedding! Love MG!

MG Hair and Makeup exceeded my wildest expectations! From the start, Denise was responsive and informative, ready to answer any questions or concerns I had. She set up my trial run with Talia, who was incredibly kind and patient. Leading up to the wedding, I was sent a detailed breakdown for hair and makeup for each girl, along with specific instructions on how to prepare for that morning.

It was really important to me that I still looked like me on my wedding day, just an enhanced version. I also have pretty short hair, so I knew working with that was going to be a challenge. My pre-wedding consultation with Talia went well, but she BLEW me away on my wedding day. She showed up on time (really important for an already anxious bride) and was on schedule down to the minute the whole time. I let each of my bridesmaids do what they wanted for hair and makeup, and Talia was careful to listen to each them and make sure they were happy with the outcome, which was really important to me. When my turn came along, Talia mentioned that my hair had grown some since our consultation and that we could probably do something extra with it. AND DID SHE. My hair turned out better than I could have ever imagined. I had it colored shortly before the wedding, and the way she styled it mixed the light/dark pieces and gave the updo amazing depth. My makeup was also exactly how I wanted it. I was concerned about my hair and makeup staying in place through a humid June day full of pictures, an outdoor ceremony and heavy dancing, but I had nothing to worry about. My hair never budged and my makeup still looked great in pictures from later on in the evening. Not only did Talia do an amazing job with everyone, but she was also just really great to have around that morning. She made me feel at ease and comfortable, and it was like having one of the girls around while we got ready. I absolutely recommend MG Hair and Makeup. You won’t be disappointed!

My initial encounter with Denise was incredibly pleasant. She shared a lot of information with me on the variety of packages available (# of stylists vs. # of hours, add-ons, etc.). She continued to remain in constant communication with me. She also organized a timeline based on the girls’ responses to their hair and skin types. She was an absolute pleasure to work with!

Denise set me up with Rachel for my trial. I’m not a makeup person and Rachel walked me through each step of what she was doing, why she was doing it, and how I could recreate a similar look. For someone that knows almost nothing about makeup, this was incredibly helpful. She spent over three hours doing my trial to make sure everything was what I wanted, which exceeded my expectations of a trial.

In the end, I chose MG because of how kind and warm Rachel was (as well as her styling abilities!) and the ease of working with Denise. Also, the fee for my trial counted towards my total hair and makeup bill – which was a nice perk!

On the day of the wedding, Allie and Destinee helped with hair and makeup for my seven bridesmaids while Rachel did hair and makeup for the mother of the groom, my mother, and me. Everyone had very different hair/skin types, as well as some allergies, conditions, etc. Rachel, Allie, and Destinee paid special attention to my girls’ requests (e.g. covering cystic acne or skin conditions). In the end, everyone’s hair and makeup looked incredible! They all got exactly what they wanted – which is exactly what I wanted!

My makeup stayed intact throughout the entire day/night, despite July’s extreme temperatures and humidity! My hair did come a bit loose throughout the night (I’ll blame the veil!), but it didn’t look like a huge mess (almost like it was supposed to be that way!).

Overall, my girls and I had a great experience with MG Hair & Makeup. Would highly recommend them to all NYC brides!
