You, but better

Working with Hunar and Kayla on my wedding day was a dream. Both were punctual and efficient with their services without sacrificing quality. I was particularly anxious about having my makeup done as other wedding HMUAs have made me feel overdone and heavy in the past. Kayla is a magician and I felt like the most beautiful version of myself on my wedding day and the makeup lasted ALL NIGHT.

Obsessed wedding look!!!

I cannot recommend Tamar C Makeup enough! My wedding makeup was absolutely flawless and exactly what I dreamed of. Tamar has such an incredible talent for making you feel beautiful while still looking completely like yourself.

My makeup felt so lightweight and natural — never heavy or cakey — yet somehow still looked perfectly flawless all day long. Everything photographed beautifully and lasted through every tear, hug, and moment of the wedding day.

Not only is she insanely talented, but she is also so calming, professional, and wonderful to be around during such an important day. I truly felt my most confident and beautiful because of her work. There honestly wasn’t a single thing I would have changed. Absolutely perfect experience from start to finish!

Wonderful way to kick off the wedding day

Tamar and Marrisa are the sweetest (and talent-est)! I didn't have a trial, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but both Tamar (hair) and Marrisa (makeup) gave me exactly what I was looking for. I felt so beautiful and couldn't be happier. They were so kind to my mother, MIL, bridesmaids, and me; they really lifted us up and hyped us up for the big day. I highly recommend them to any bride!

The best bridal hair and makeup experience I could have asked for

Tamar was truly one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day. From the very beginning, I had a feeling she was going to be exactly what I wanted in a hair and makeup artist, and after my trial, she completely exceeded my expectations.

Not only is Tamar incredibly talented, but she also has such a warm, calming, and welcoming energy that instantly puts you at ease. She genuinely listens to your vision and brings it to life while also offering thoughtful suggestions and guidance along the way. During my trial, she walked me through different possibilities for my hair and makeup, and together we landed on the perfect bridal look. She was also so open to feedback and made adjustments effortlessly until everything felt just right.

On the morning of the wedding, Tamar brought such positive vibes and made the entire getting-ready experience feel relaxed and fun. She completed hair and makeup for all of my bridesmaids, my mom, and my aunt in a timely and organized manner, while still making sure I, as the bride, received extra attention and care.

At one point, my initial hairstyle wasn’t exactly what I had envisioned, and Tamar immediately reassured me and completely transformed it into the look of my dreams without hesitation. By the end, I truly felt the most beautiful I have ever felt in my life. Looking back at my wedding photos, my hair and makeup were absolutely flawless, and I honestly could not have asked for anything better.

I cannot recommend Tamar highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who is not only exceptionally skilled but also kind, calming, professional, and genuinely passionate about making brides feel beautiful, Tamar is the one you want by your side on your wedding day.

Incredible value!

Tamar and her team were incredible! The whole team was organized, communicative, and fun to work with. My bridesmaids, mom, and I all had a fantastic experience. My hair in particular stayed firmly in place despite many veil malfunctions!

Wonderful experience for my wedding hair and makeup!

Wonderful experience for my wedding hair and makeup! Tamar was extremely flexible and kind. She helped me work through my wedding hair vision and I LOVED my day-of hair. Marissa was wonderful with makeup as well! My wedding party loved their hair and makeup too! Tamar and Marissa added to the joy of the morning getting ready for the day!

An Amazing Artist Who Truly Listens – Highly Recommend!

I couldn’t be happier with the experience I had with Tamar and her Team for my wedding day. From the moment I reached out, she was professional, friendly, and easy to work with. I had a trial a couple of weeks before the wedding, and even though I made some last-minute changes to my look on the big day, Tamar was so understanding and completely adaptable. She knew exactly what I wanted, even when I wasn't entirely sure myself! On the wedding day, Tamar and her team worked their magic, doing hair and makeup for my bridal party and three additional guests. Everyone looked stunning, and we were all so impressed by how quickly and efficiently they worked. They were professional, calm, and made the whole morning fun and relaxing, which was exactly what I needed on such a big day! The best part? My hair and makeup lasted all day (and night!)—I felt absolutely beautiful, and it was exactly the look I’d envisioned. I’m so grateful for the fantastic job they did, and I highly recommend Tamar C Makeup to anyone looking for talented, professional, and personable artists for their wedding day.

Incredible Makeup & Hair Stylist

Working with Tamar and her team was a fantastic experience. They were not only professional and courteous but also exceptionally talented artists who brought everyone's visions to life. I had a larger bridal party that required both hair and makeup services, and every single person was thrilled with the results.

Having been a bridesmaid numerous times, I've encountered stylists who either rushed through the process or failed to listen to my preferences, which can be frustrating. However, on the wedding day, Tamar's team excelled in creating beautiful looks for my bridesmaids while ensuring a delightful overall experience. Tamar herself styled my bridal look, and I couldn't have been more pleased with my hair and makeup on that special day.

Truly me but better!

I knew Tamar C Makeup would be the hair and makeup artist for me when I saw her slogan “you, but better.” For my wedding, I wanted to look and feel like me… but better! And Tamar and Marissa nailed it. My mom, mother-in-law, wedding party, and I felt so beautiful on my big day. Tamar and Marissa made sure our hair and make up was exactly how we wanted it. They arrived on-time and finished our hair and makeup on time- but didn’t rush! I also appreciated their fun and kind personalities, which was perfect for calming morning-of-wedding-nerves and adding to the fun of getting ready with all my favorite people. Prior to my wedding, Tamar was super responsive to my emails and helpful with any questions I had, and my trial was also a great experience. I highly recommend Tamar and her team!

Tamar is a true professional and a talented makeup artist. She is so wonderful to work with and really enhances my job as a photographer by embracing the natural beauty of brides, bridesmaids and their mothers. Its very important to be a inspiration and guide your clients by example. She not only talented at what she does but lives it, as she comes to the photo shoots or events dressed in style and with a beautiful face, I cant tell you how many makeup artists I have seen that dress sloppy and dont care about how they look I wouldn't trust someone who doesn't take care if themselves to take care of me. Bottom line..Tamar is wonderful artist !
