    Very talented and amazing hair & makeup artist

    I was honored to be able to book Nazeera because I really loved her work. My wedding planner Maggie (Bravo Events from Ventura CA) even recommended her so it was truly fate. I got my professional hair & makeup trial from Nazeera for my engagement photos since I truly trusted her work even from her beginning text and phone call consultations with her. She was so sweet and honest and didn't even recommend doing a trial in South Orange County for engagement photos (Michael Anthony Photography Los Angeles) just in case, but I honestly don't regret it because I knew it would be amazing work. Her listening skills and her attention to detail and care truly is reflected in my photos as I felt beautiful and confident without feeling overdone. I loved how her makeup made me glow. My professional makeup and Hollywood Bridal hair lasted in the hot weather at Pasadena City Hall. For the day of my wedding, I also booked her for myself, my mother in law, my bridesmaids & my mother and they all looked stunning and loved her work. I felt like a million dollars on the day of my wedding and my makeup lasted throughout all my emotions without needing a single touch up throughout the night. I definitely look forward to booking her again for all of my special occasion needs and have already been recommending her to all of my friends and family. Thank you for making my engagement photoshoot & wedding photos so amazing and memorable. Words truly can't describe how grateful I am.

    A Master in Taste and Styling

    I hired Nazeera again for our expansive July 2023 wedding in Temecula after I adored the way she glammed me up for my church wedding back in April 2023. Not only she’s professional, gentle, and caring, she also goes the extra mile to make sure the bride feels confidently comfortable in how she looks on her special day. She has an exceptional vision of how she sees a bride… Don’t miss out on Nazeera!

    unprofessional with poor business ethics.

    In short, she is unprofessional with poor business ethics.

    If I could give zero stars, I would. I have never even written a review before, but I had previously went through these reviews upon booking them for my wedding, and felt good there were SO many positive reviews - what could go wrong, right?

    To start, Here’s why:
    Our wedding was on 4-5-2020 and the whole world shut down 2 weeks prior so everyone had to cancel their weddings due to Covid and She promised to use my deposit for a future service since her deposit is not refundable. I felt bad for her business since she was struggling according to what she said and I was like that’s fine let’s just keep the credit for future service then.

    Fast forward to 2023, she is now saying that she only honored the service for 2021,2022 and not honoring anymore in 2023. While she never specified that there is an expiration date for the credit. And I have the proof of a text between me and her in September 2020 and she said “I can’t do any return of deposit at this time for at least next month until things get clear. Your deposit is valid with me and I will value that in the future and if I am not going to be available in your date I will give your deposit back”.

    More details:
    When I contacted her few weeks ago, she never responded, so I gave her few more days to respond just I thought she could be busy or something, still didn’t respond and then 12 days passed so I decide to email her because she is clearly receiving my messages and posting on Instagram in the meantime. She responded to my email saying that my deposit is expired last year without any further notice and I can not use the service anymore. So she basically took the money that she did NOT work for after promising to use my deposit for a future service.
    She lied about giving me two years limit to use the service because on the texts she only stated that she will value the credit so I can use it for a “future service” and I can Include the screenshots. AND NOW she adds another lie on the “reply to my review” that she talked with me on the phone about the two years limit (she did NOT tell me two years on the phone) Everything was included via texts, PLEASE STOP LAYING).
    I suggest you go read what you said and honored.

    Hair and Makeup by Nazeera Aqa's reply:

    Mrs. Rana,
    Sorry you feel this way.
    1. My deposit was not refundable and it was clearly stated on my contract.
    2. As a good business women and courtesy I did give you a credit is $150 which was the amount of your deposit to be used in 2 years and I told you that via phone conversation we had. You came back in 2023 asking for a refund.
    3. Covid was hard and horrible experience for everyone as you lost your $150 deposit I lost my brother I lost my studio and business I had build for years and so much more.Hopefully we both can be recovered from our losses!❤️

    Made my special day come true

    Nazeera is excellent in her craft in both styling hair and make-up artistry. She's very professional and timely. My now husband could not keep his eyes off me and now mother in law, mentioned I looked like a movie star! Nazeera does not disappoint! She excels in her line of work. I definitely highly recommend her!

    Wedding review

    I worked with Nazeera a few years back and used her for Hair and makeup for an event after hearing about her through a friend. I remember how good my hair and makeup turned out in photos then. When it came time to planning my wedding day, I remembered how much I loved her work and immediately contacted her. I got married this past weekend and Nazeera did hair and makeup for myself and a 4 other family members. We all loved how much our hair and makeup turned out and received so many compliments on my wedding day. Ladies, look no further! Nazeera was super professional and her makeup artistry is top notch. Thank you Nazeera for making me look and feel so beautiful on my wedding day! ❤

    absolute sweetest!

    Nazeera is absolutely amazing! She has so much experience under her belt and it truly reflects in her work. She is caring and is attentive to detail. I did not do a trial so I was really worried about the outcome. I explained to her what I wanted and she took everything I said into consideration in order to achieve my desired look! My mom also had a wonderful experience with her and received so many compliments. Nazeera is definitely the master of contouring and I am so glad that I made the decision to work with her. Thank you so much for everything! - Tiffany

    The best experience !!!

    Nazeera did an excellent job of glamming me for my special day. She was so easy to reach out and understood my requirement. It was hard for me to find a makeup artist and hairstylist for my marriage in the States as I was in Canada and not sure how to decide upon this. Nazeera really helped me with my request and I am glad I decided to go with her services. She is an easy person to talk to and makes you look just stunning and pretty. Very talented and great service and overall awesome experience!!

    The magic touch

    Nazeera was so amazing throughout the whole process, from engagement shoot makeup to my wedding day glam. She comes equipped with skill, experience and intuition as she ensured my makeup escalated my looks on both days. My skin looked flawless and the makeup lasted all day. Finally, she’s a great woman overall, so encouraging and genuine.

    Nazeera is very amazing in the work she does. I loved every look she created on me for my wedding and pre-events. She took her time and effort to create the hair and make up looks for my wedding. She is very nice and easy to get a long with lots of patience she has. I will recommend her to many brides who are looking for a make up and hair artist.

    Amazing Artist!!

    Nazeera is an amazing artist! Not only is she talented with hair and makeup but she’s a wonderful, caring person. She gives suggestions for looks and listens to what you are thinking as well. She is very detail oriented and it shows in her work. I have had Nazeera do my makeup and hair for a few weddings I have attended and she has always made me look amazing! Most recently we asked for her services for my sister’s wedding events. We got so many compliments on our looks and made the bride look like a princess! I highly recommend Nazeera for party and bridal looks!

    The absolute best!

    All I have to say is that you have to book Nazeera! She’s everything you would want in a makeup and hairstylist! Creative, bold, intuitive and confident! What I liked about Nazeera was that she helped put my ideas into a vision and nailed what I wanted. That’s important, because sometimes clients don’t always know what they want, but a good makeup and hairstylist can confidently figure it out. Nazeera did both my hair and makeup for two events while I was on business in Anaheim! She did a Hollywood glam theme banquet and also a business speech. I was so happy with both experiences. She made me look and feel fabulous on both occasions!

    Here’s the other major part. She was so responsive from the first time I contacted her. I never waited and she called/texted me back right away. I even decided last minute on one of the events and she came to my hotel same-day on a Sunday! I had also booked her for later in the week the week before, and I had no issues with her showing up on time or being accountable.

    I cannot recommend her style and personality enough. It seems as if she can meet any request! Check out her Instagram. She’s one of the best I’ve ever had work on me and I’ve had many stylists over the years! Aloha!

    Ahhhhmazing!!!

    I inquired with Nazeera 3 weeks before our elopement and from that moment she was so responsive. She was early which is always good business. She was well prepared to do make up and hair in a hotel room. Had her own lighting too. She asked how I wanted hair and make up. Gave her a general idea and left the rest up to her (the professional). Couldn’t have been happier with how it all came out. She did myself as well as daughter’s hair. Took her 3 hours. Another plus, easy to talk to, great conversations. Thank you SO much Nazeera! 😊
