May was such a joy to work with, she's the best! Not only was she on time, she was early to a 4:45AM start!! I was amazed! During these time and coming from a different state I was a little worried about what safety measures makeup artists were doing, but May was wearing gloves, face mask and a shield. I was very impressed and felt really safe. I didn't really have a style that I wanted. I sent her a picture of my dress and I asked that it matches with the dress and something natural. She did an amazing job and the pricing is very competitive. Honestly throughout the entire process, she literally will make you feel like she's a friend helping you with your makeup on your wedding day. Very friendly and kind. I actually missed her when I left Hawaii!

I am so happy I had May doing my hair and makeup. She did the hairstyle exactly as the picture I showed her. The makeup was really natural and she even gave some re-touch kit for the lips. I felt really beautiful thanks to her. She is an amazing artist! Also she treats her customers really attentively and well. I cried while she was working on my eyes since they are really sensitive. She was really patient and corrected the mess I made. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone who wants to look beautiful!

Best makeup artist in Oahu
May was a pleasure to work with. Arrived early to the appointment and honored all of my requests for natural looking makeup- requested special attention to eyelashes and brows as mine were lost to recent chemo. May honored my request and created a natural look for my special day. She’s very talented and I highly recommend her for makeup to relieve stress and allow you to enjoy your day.

May is the BEST
If you're looking for a reliable & professional make up artist, please choose May! I loved working with her, she is very responsive and showed up early at 4:45am for 5am start. My skin had broken out a few days before, but it was no problem for May. She wasn't worried & you couldn't even tell after she did my make up!! I liked that she wore a mask/shield during the session & gave me a touch up kit in the end too :).
May truly made me look and feel beautiful. She is incredibly sweet & I loved talking with her too. May really cares & I can't wait until she does my make up again :)!

Amazing bridal hair and makeup!
May is aMAYzing! We were blown away by her talent and amazing personality and professionalism. I hired her for my bridal makeup, my mother, my maid of honor, and an attendant! Everyone loved their hair and makeup! She uses high end products and my hair and makeup lasted an outdoor ceremony and reception. I danced a lot and was shocked that everything still looked so good at the end of the reception! I would highly recommend her.

So talented!
May showed up on-site early and ready to go. She was exactly on time in finishing hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids, like to the minute! My sister-in-law had had such a bad experience with a different makeup artist and it threw her whole day off, so this was so important to me! She was so gentle that my bridesmaids were joking that they could have fallen asleep, it was such a calm and relaxing experience and we looked amazing! All my girls were so happy with their looks and I was too. Really, one of, if not THE best decisions I made to hire May! 10/10!

You won’t regret booking May!
May was an absolute gem to work with! I was flying to Oahu from New York and had to do the trial two days before the ceremony. May was flexible with my schedule and came to my hotel for the hair and makeup. I had sent her some hair and makeup ideas via email beforehand, but I wasn’t sure if she could do the hairstyle I wanted because I thought my hair would be too short, but she made it happen!! The trial was so important because i decided that I wanted more natural falsies after a whole day of walking around with more dramatic falsies. This small change actually required May to tone down on the makeup and change the color palette, but the result was even better than during the trial! My mom asked if I could bring May to New York for my reception haha! The makeup was great but I was extremely obsessed with the hairdo she did for me. It looked even better than the inspiration picture I sent her! She had great work ethics - arriving early, very responsive, practiced safe hygiene by wearing mask, shield, and gloves, and provided a small makeup kit for any needed touch ups. I also enjoyed chatting with her because she was very sweet. The bonus is that she has very gentle hands!

May was amazing and so talented with her makeup and hair artistry. She worked her magic and I really felt transformed. Most beautiful I ever felt and I tremendously appreciate the experience. I booked for both my mother and myself and we loved the outcome. Thank you!

May is true Expert!
She recommended well what should I do with my hair knowing well conditions at the beach (we had a wedding on the beach). She did my make up even better than I ever had in my country (I went to professional make-up maker >10 times). She used good quality products and she is perfectly organised. She made my wedding day beatiful! I felt really good & sexy :)

Absolute best stylist!
May was an absolute dream! She was incredibly flexible given changing schedules for both my trial as well as my wedding day, given my groom wanted to add a little makeup to the schedule and we needed to do touch ups at the venue (which was ~30 min away) after my maid of honor and mother were done. She also took my feedback after the trial to heart and made adjustments the morning of my wedding that were absolutely PERFECT. I looked better than I could have imagined and I know my pictures will be stunning.
At one point I bawled my eyes out during the reception but my makeup stayed intact and I didn't need to touch anything up! She also left me a small touch up kit for my lipgloss, which I was so glad I could reapply throughout the evening so my look stayed fresh!

Excellent Maid of Honor Hair and Make-up!
May was a delight to have to do my hair and make-up!
She showed up promptly and got to work right away and was flexible about the tight space she had to work in.
May listened to what I wanted for my hair and make-up. And when I realized it my was quite what I wanted, she even cut my hair a bit to get my desired look!

May is the absolute best
I found May through a friend who also had her wedding in Oahu. When I first reached out to May, she was incredibly responsive and after scrolling through her Instagram, I knew I had to book with her. May's prices were also the most reasonable, compared to other makeup artists I reached out to in Oahu. I had my trial with May three days before my actual wedding and May was very receptive to all of my notes. I didn't even have to remind her of my changes on the day of - she remembered it all and executed based on what I told her three days prior. My final hair and makeup exceeded my wildest dreams and I can't thank May enough for bringing what I had in my mind to life.
May was also very accommodating - I made a last minute change to have my sister in law get her hair done and May was so flexible with this change. She also arrived earlier than the agreed time in order to set up and start right when we said we would. May - I can't thank you enough for your professionalism, flexibility and your amazing work! I hope to cross paths with you again some day.

Mayy was uhhmazing!
She is very organized, pleasure to work with, sweet and kind, and most importantly, *Drum Rolls/*, she helped me look my best!
I was very horrified and worried because a pimple came outta nowhere on my wedding day. But, she somehow helped me hid it.
The majority of my bridesmaids and MOH(Maid-of-Honor) had their makeup done by Mayy! The hairstyles were done by her kind mother. Mayy did my hair and makeup. There was a problem with the back hair volume for the bridesmaids, but that was an easy fix. Just gotta let them know. They were very sweet to help my MIL(Mother-in-law) to add-on some fake lashes last minute.
I was impressed by how long the makeup lasted throughout the night (+8hrs). I did not book a touch-up session, so she gave me a small kit to do my own touch-ups!
Mahalo Mayy!

Best you could ever ask for!!
May is the whole package! She's such a lovely soul and an amazing hair stylist and make up artist. I danced through my whole wedding night and sweated buckets; my make up and hair did not move at all. Not even a smudge or stray hair. You could not ask for better service and responsiveness! She's a genius in her field and makes everyone absolutely gorgeous. I used her for my engagement shoot in Hawaii as well. I am from Oregon but if I lived in Hawaii I would use her for every occasion! She's the best.

Hire this woman!
May was wonderful to work with. My husband and I had scheduled our wedding at 10:00AM. May came to our hotel room very, very early in the morning (5:00AM) and did my hair and makeup. She did an amazing job! Before meeting her on our wedding day, May was easy to get in contact with, and we corresponded back and forth on the look I wanted for the big day. She is very professional, personable, and very talented. I highly recommend her!

Excellent service!
May was so sweet and nice. She did my hair and makeup for my wedding day. I told her I don’t wear a lot of makeup so I wanted something natural and still wanted to look like myself. She absolutely exceeded all my expectations. I got so many compliments from my family and friends. The makeup and hair stayed on the entire day. The tears and humidity did not ruin the makeup or hair. I’m so glad May was a part of my special day. I would highly recommend her.

May was amazing! She is such a lovely person, so kind and sweet!
May did my hair and makeup for our August wedding on Oahu, and she did just makeup for my maid of honor and flower girl. She worked so quickly but also accurately, whisking powders and creams onto my face and hair...it ended up so beautiful and we were really grateful for her skills! It made the day even more special :-) I highly recommend her services for your special occasions!

Amazing, Excellent & Professional!
May did my hair and makeup for my cousin 5 years ago when I was a bridesmaid and I was super impressed. I got engaged in 2020 and immediately made sure to book May for my wedding day as soon as possible. May & her crew were amazing doing me & my 5 bridesmaid hair and makeup. May responded to emails quickly and made sure the timeline of when my bridesmaid and I got ready was good. I was absolutely satisfied with my hair and makeup. Not only did May do hair and makeup on my wedding day, she also did hair and makeup for my engagement photo session. May is amazing!

Professional, kind and responsive!
This was a second marriage for my fiancé and I at the Kahala Resort. May came highly recommended and did not disappoint for myself, 3 stepdaughters and 1 daughter. They listened and were responsive to all individual needs. You can’t go wrong with May and her team!
