    I’ve never felt better! Javier is an angel on earth

    Javier and his team are magical! He made me feel so glam and so gorgeous - inside and out - and was so accommodating to me and my bridesmaids. He welcomed me into his own home (which was so well kept, clean and cute!) to have my hair and makeup trail. I rocked that party pony look at my welcome party in Old San Juan a few days before our wedding (which I wore a classic low bun style). During the trial he also shared a cup of coffee + quesito (yum!) with my sister and me, which was honestly a favorite memory for us that weekend. He arrived on time to our hotel a few days later with some other artists to glam up my girls and me! I think 8 of us total and made our morning so light, breezy and fun. He made our natural beauty come out and gave us makeup tips along the way. My girlfriend bought the setting spray he used on us because our makeup lasted ALL NIGHT and well into the morning hours. Gracias Javier! Can’t wait to be back in PR and need some glam because I know who I’m calling

    Simply the best

    Javier is well known in the wedding industry. I’ve been a bridesmaid in many weddings and I always knew I wanted Javier to do my wedding hair and makeup. He’s a busy guy so you need to book him ahead of time. On my wedding day him and Raul (equally as amazing) took care of us and treated us like queens. Their vibe is amazing and a breath of fresh air. All my friends loved their final result. Highly recommend them both.

    Talented and professional

    Javier was recommended to me by my wedding planner, Rosalina Torres and I couldn't be happier with the service provided by Javier for my engagement photos, wedding, and maids of honor. Everything turned out just how I imagined. Javier was punctual and had prompt communication while planning.

    Stunningly Beautiful

    I can't express how much I loved my hair and make up the day of my wedding. IT WAS PERFECT! Javier Moreno is the best, no doubt. Excellent personality and attitude, very charismatic and energetic. He also did the H&MU of my mother and sister, they were both stunningly beautiful as well.

    He is just AMAZING. Superb hair and make up skills.

    I felt incredibly Beautiful !

    Javier is simply amazing, he has a great personality and is incredibly talented. From the moment I first met him for my trial to my wedding day, I always felt comfortable and at ease with him. I felt like an old friend of mine was doing my hair and make-up, which help keep me very calms the day off. My hair and makeup lasted all night, throughout tears, laughs and plenty of dancing. You will be in great hands and will feel beautiful. He is truly the best.

    Javier y su equipo son los mejores sin lugar a dudas. No sólo me sentí como una reina el día de mi boda, ese maquillaje no se regó ni un poquito en toda la noche. Además de su arte con el cabello y maquillaje, es super agradable compartir con él. La experiencia de todas mis chicas que se peinaron y se maquillaron con Javier, Raúl y Taisha fue la misma. Todas quedaron preciosas. Lo recomiendo 1000%

    Javier was amazing to work with. I booked him about seven months before the wedding with just pictures and videos of his work. I met him the Thursday before my ceremony for a free test to see what exactly he was going to do. I gave him an idea and he just executed it to perfection the day of. I felt very comfortable with him. With an assistant, he was able to do the makeup and hair for 3 bridesmaids, my mother, mother-in-law and myself, within the time that he had. He absolutely transformed all of us accenting our beautiful features and made everyone of us feel special and beautiful. My husband's first words when he saw me was WOW! Javier took some extra time as well waiting for me to do a touch up between my First Look pictures and the ceremony. I'm so happy I chose him.

    I have NEVER felt so beautiful in my life. Javier was the best decision I ever made. Not only is he very well known around the beauty department but he is just a humble and sweet guy. Javier did my makeup for my engagement shoot and my wedding. I love how he takes his time and uses such great techniques that it makes your skin look so natural. On the day of my wedding he brought his co-worker, Raul to do a few of my bridesmaids. They were more than satisfied and recommend to everyone. If you are getting married in Puerto Rico I highly recommend Javier. When you say his name EVERYONE will know who he is. Thats how amazing and well known he is for his perfection in hair and makeup :)

    Javier is a face magician. We gave him that name because myself(the bride) and every bridesmaid he did was flawless. The girls looked amazing. Many of my friends are makeup artists back home so I know talent. He is amazing! So kind and gracious as well:)

    What a phenomenal person! Javier was an absolutely amazing hair and makeup artist. He was a little more expensive than others that I contacted, but he was worth every single penny! I planned a destination wedding from Orlando, FL and was a little concerned that I would be doing a trial just two days before the wedding. I was also a little hesitant to go to his apartment for the trial, but he lives in a nice apartment/condo with security and the most adorable little dog. Don't let this be the reason why you don't choose Javier to be your hair and makeup artist, you will be missing out!

    He did the makeup and hair for 5 people total, including myself, with help from his partner who is equally talented. He was efficient, thorough, and very experienced. I could not have been more happy with my selection. I have never received so many compliments on how beautiful I looked. Granted, it was my wedding so everyone is nice to the bride, but I am sure that there was sincerity in complements to the work of Javier Moreno. I went from beautiful to bombshell, but only because of Javier Moreno!

    I picked Javier as my make-up and hair artist also because my wedding planner recommended him. However, I was fortunate that since I made a trip to Puerto Rico months before the wedding that I got a chance to see Javier’s work . He did my hair and make up for my engagement pictures and I loved it. I loved it even more when I saw the pictures and saw how great they came out. Then for my wedding day he did another amazing job. I have long thick hair and I was worried that he would not be able to do anything with it and I was wrong. My recommendation to any bride is let your stylist work their magic. They know what they are doing and have a vision when they start. I probably was a bridezilla in other aspects of my wedding, but when it came to my hair and make-up, I let him do what he thought was best and I am so happy I did.

    I figure this review is best written by the husband. My wife and I were recently married in Old San Juan and Javier provided the hair and makeup services to my wife. My wife looked like she'd just walked right out of a magazine. No seriously, he's amazing. I didn't think my wife could get any more beautiful until I saw her after Javier worked his magic. If you're getting married in Old San Juan, you need to contract with Javier.

    Javier did an amazing makeup and hair job for me and my bridal party. He was open to our likes and I was even able to complete a trial with him for my engagement pictures. He has great attention to detail and seems to be a perfectionist. Everyone in the wedding thought our hair and makeup was beautiful, and my husband thought I looked amazing! Couldn't ask for a better experience!

    i do not have the words to recommend Javier highly enough. he is simply amazing at what he does. without particularly clear direction from me, he was able to create the most amazing hair and make up for my wedding day. absolutely stunning. guests said i looked like a movie star -- and i can assure you the credit goes to Javier!

    he was on time - and very nice to me, although i was about 30 minutes late for my trial!

    on my wedding day he made my mom and i absolutely glow. our wedding was outdoors, dinner and dancing indoors for hours after that -- and all i ever did was add lip gloss after dinner. he is pure magic and a beautiful person!

    Javier did an amazing job for my sister and Brother in law’s wedding. Javier felt like another part of the family and was very warm and welcoming! He had my sister looking like an absolute bombshell on her special day. It was classy, elegant, A+++ product! Hair & makeup both exceeded our expectations and we are so thankful for Javier!!!!!!

    Simply the Best

    I can’t emphasize how incredibly talented Javier and his partner are. I gave Javier minimal direction and trusted his creative process—he did not let me down. He knew exactly how to work with my face and hair and did an impeccable job—both for my rehearsal dinner and wedding. My makeup was flawless the whole night on both nights. My entire wedding party loved their makeup and hair. My 90 year old grandmother felt so incredible in her makeup—she did not want to wash it off—she arrived at brunch the next day with all her makeup still on!!! Also extremely professional and kind, do not hesitate to hire!!!

    Amazing Top Notch Service

    All I can say is wow! On your wedding day you can only dream to feel beautiful, Javier and Raul turned my wedding dreams into a reality. He transformed me from mom of an 8 year old to the Beyonce of my wedding. He was professional, understanding, patient and beyond creative and talented with my vision for not only me but also the wedding party. He and Raul provided and unforgettable experience for hair and make-up. We would definitely book them again for any event we might have in Puerto Rico and highly recommend them to anyone who wants to feel glamorous and embody their true beauty.

    Hair and Make Up plays such and important role on your wedding as you want to feel beautiful on this special day, and Javier did just that for me! Hands down he is one of the best decisions I made during my wedding planning process. Javier really studies your face and determines what type of make up will compliment you best.

    Typically when I get my hair and make up done professionally I end up not liking it or having to make changes myself, but with Javier's touch I did not change a thing! He really makes everyone look beautiful in the most natural yet glamorous way. If you need hair and make up done for your wedding day or any other special event, Javier is the BEST choice for this!

    Javier and Raul were amazing! The moms, bridesmaids and myself all felt and looked so beautiful! They did an impeccable job with our makeup and updos. They were very honest on what they thought would look good and what wouldn't. They made sure we were always running on time and kept us on track! They used quality products and even took the time to apply single lashes to us! Thank you so much Javier. I would highly recommend Javier to any bride!

    JAVIER IS AMAZING. He did my makeup and my mother and mother-in laws makeup for my wedding day. If there is one thing that went absolutely PERFECT on my wedding day it was my hair and makeup, and this is because Javier sets each bride or client up for success. First we did a hair and makeup trial at Javiers apartment before my wedding so he can see what he is working with and also so you feel comfortable knowing he will do a great job. The trial was a success, my husband dropped me off but he was running late to pick me back up so Javier invited me to lunch and kept me company until my husband returned. My makeup/hair on my wedding day was absolutely BREATH TAKING. He also did such an amazing job on both of my mothers, they looked unreal. Javier is so talented but beyond that he makes you feel calm and comfortable on a very stressful day. The best thing you can do on your wedding day is have Javier as your make up artist.

    Javier is a real artist. He really knows his craft. I am a mature bride 57 and he made me look 10 years younger. He also did my daughter hair and make up and they looked like Mis univers contestants. We had a fabulous time getting ready and he was friends with my photographer , so they made sure the first look was perfect. I highly recommend him!!
