Thank you Sonia!!

Talk about talented, professional, and truly gifted! Sonia provided an amazing experience for my wedding day from start to finish. Sonia has an incredible eye for detail, a great sense of style, and a real talent for both hair and makeup, creating a look that was even better than I imagined. She’s an artist! Her team was just as wonderful, friendly, attentive, and made the whole process smooth and comfortable.

They all worked together seamlessly and made me feel completely taken care of. My hair and makeup turned out flawless, long-lasting, and I received so many compliments throughout my wedding day.

I highly recommend Sonia and her team to anyone looking for skilled, reliable, and passionate professionals.

Cooke Wedding The Chateau, Incline Village NV Aug 2025

Sonia and her team did a fantastic job for me (bride) and my three daughters (bridesmaids). She made sure she had our cabin number, arranged being let in at the gate ahead of time, and arrived ahead of time. She had a professional makeup chair (you feel like you are in the movies) and all the makeup and eyelashes with her, although I provided my own. Very professional application of eyelashes, I can't say enough about that :). I had hair extensions and my stepdaughter, Kiana, has enough hair for three people, so there were challenges there, but Sonia made sure it all got done. We ended up a little pressed for time due to a storm and my future husband-to-be and I were racing to get to the lake to get some photos before the rain came. Sonia and her hair team were very accommodating and were aware of our time schedules the whole time, which took some stress off me. It was actually a very relaxed and fun environment to get ready in, I served some snacks and we played music. Would highly recommend Tahoe Hair and Makeup! I am a little disappointed I didn’t have the photographer take some photos of us getting ready so I could share them.

Absolutely recommend!

Sonia and her team at Tahoe Hair n Makeup were absolutely incredible. From start to finish, they made the entire process so easy and stress-free. On the day of, everyone felt beautiful and confident, and it really showed in all of our photos.

My hair in particular turned out stunning. I received so many compliments throughout the night. I had sew in extensions in that Sonia was able to work with without any issues. Everyone’s hair and makeup stayed all day and night. My mom, who had never had her hair or makeup done professionally before, kept saying she felt like a princess, which made the day even more special for both of us.

Sonia and her team were professional, warm, and so talented. They took away all the worry of getting ready and helped set such a joyful tone for the morning. I’m so grateful we had them as part of our wedding day and cannot recommend them highly enough.

Beautiful work!

Sonia was wonderful! As someone who doesn't wear makup, I had a lot of edits after my trial (during which I really didn't know what I wanted). Sonia was was able to take all the edits and I loved my hair and makeup on the day of the wedding. I really appreciated that she didn't charge a travel fee and that she was able to find 3 other stylists for my large bridal party!

Wonderful!

Sonia was wonderful to work with! She was very responsive, answered all my questions, and provided an excellent service! It can be scary picking someone at random from a website without any additional info or personal recommendations, but please do not have that fear with Sonia. She’s amazing and I would highly recommend her!

Couldn’t have asked for a better hair and make up artist for my day

10/10 would recommend Tahoe Hair and Makeup. Everything was perfect, her prices are very fair. I contacted about 10 other H&M artists and Sonia was definitely the best option for my day. I couldn’t imagine my wedding day with out her. Hair and make up both looked stunning and lasted all day. If you are thinking about contacting her, do it!! You will not regret it.

Amazing hair and makeup for my wedding!

Sonia was great with communication in the months leading up to my event. Google found her, I checked out her portfolio and started the email and contracting process. Unlike every other vendor she did not require a deposit immediately, just a commitment and a credit card to charge, which was super helpful when everyone else's payment timeline was rough to work around.
When Sonia came to my place for my trial she listened to what I wanted and was supportive of what I didn't, I gave her a lot of creative control and she did great-I looked like a fairy tale version of myself! The next day for my event she successfully made my straight thin hair look thick, wavy and gorgeous! My makeup looked great and the eyelash extentions looked good but just weren't my style so she made other adjustments to make my eyes look good. In addition to the price (which was HALF of what everyone else was charging for similar work) , she was fun to talk to, inquisitive, open minded and great company. I highly recommend her! 10/10 would have Sonia take care of my hair and makeup again!

My hair and makeup looked amazing!

They were great! They were easy to get a hold of and responded quickly to all my questions. They found our Airbnb easily and set up very quickly. They did a fantastic job on my makeup and hair, I got lots of compliments from everyone even the photographer. Overall I was very happy from start to finish.
