    So Amazing

    I would HIGHLY recommend to any bride that they reach out to Sarahi. She is so talented and knows so much about hair and make-up. She really goes above and beyond for her clients. She is very easy to talk to and takes feedback really well. If you don't like something, she doesn't get offended. Instead she works to make sure that you love your look. We had 5 people getting HMU and had a tight timeline. Sarahi had us all done an hour before we were suppose to leave, which is rare in the wedding world! She brings the calm to the wedding day and was a delight to work with. Her work is worth every penny!

    Amazing hair and makeup service!

    Let me start by saying WOW! I felt SO beautiful on my wedding day. Sarahi did an excellent job of listening to what I wanted and giving me an elevated neutral makeup look. I felt gorgeous, while also still feeling like myself. Sarahi, and her assistant Mary, also did my bridesmaids and mothers hair and makeup and they could all not stop talking about how beautiful they felt. Sarahi was professional, kind, calm, punctual, communicative, and listened thoughtfully to what every one wanted. It was a perfect start to our wedding day.

    Amazing in every way!

    Sarahi was incredible in every way! She was very personable, relatable, and made the bridal makeup and hair process fun and so carefree. It was difficult for me to find my vision because I do not naturally wear a lot of makeup and rarely do anything fancy with my hair beyond beach waves and top bun. Sarahi was patient, understanding and was able to 100% recreate the vision I had for my winter wedding in EVERY category. I would 10/10 recommend her for any bride, any occasion and with any style.

    Exceeded expectations!

    Sarahi was organized, energetic and professional from the time she arrived until the wedding was done! She kept tabs on the wedding party making sure throughout the day that everyone had what they needed, whether it was a touch up (hot day!), something cool to drink or just needed a little break. Her services went above and beyond hair and make-up, but we ALL got some wonderful compliments on our hair and make-up and how "fresh" we looked even though the temperatures were close to 100 degrees that day!

    Pure Elegance Was Outstanding!

    Sarahi was a joy to work with from the consult day to the wedding day. She was able to help with timelines and helped reduced my wedding day stress. She was fun and respectful, not to mention my bridesmaids and I looked like a million bucks without breaking the bank.

    Bridal Hair & Makeup

    Sarahi was wonderful. I know very little about hair styling and makeup, but Sarahi was able to decipher my vision and make it a reality. She was professional, punctual, and super sweet. Highly recommend.

    Bridal hair & makeup

    Sarahi is amazing at what she does! She is talented and oh so sweet. I met Sarahi at a Bridal Fair where I hired her for our middle daughter's wedding. We all loved her so much we hired her for our oldest daughter's wedding this summer. She has years of experience in the biz and there isn’t a look or hairstyle she can't do. She takes great care to make sure she exceeds your expectations. She is now our go to for all hair and makeup needs. She also does lashes and spray tans! We highly recommend her, we promise you will not be disappointed.

    We felt so beautiful!

    Sarahi was the ultimate professional. We decided to stick with our June wedding date, and have a smaller ceremony. Sarahi did make-up for five and hair for two. The wedding day can be a stressful one, but Sarahi was a calming influence on everyone. She was on-time and nothing was rushed. She made sure we all were satisfied with our looks. She listening to what we wanted, and everyone was pleased. And the looks lasted through a sunny, windy day and into the night! I highly recommend her services! You can find her website at: https://www.pureeleganceartistry.com/

    Loved my hair and makeup for my wedding!

    Sarahi is an absolute dream to work with! She’s cool, calm and collective and really listens to what look I want every time I’ve had my hair and makeup done by her. I highly recommend her for weddings, special events and any other time you want to feel absolutely beautiful and fabulous!

    I was lucky to have Sarahi as an artist!

    After a series of unfortunate events with another vendor, I was left looking for a professional to complete bridal hair and makeup for myself as well as others in my wedding party 2 weeks before our wedding. I was connected with Sarahi through a vendor recommended by our venue. After hearing my story Sarahi gave up her personal day to help my bridal party and me. She was extremely professional, flexible, talented at what she does, and took the time to complete the look everyone had envisioned. Everyone looked beautiful and was extremely satisfied with her work!

    Sarahi was a joy to work with. She did my makedup for the big day and really helped me find the look I was looking for and nail it for the occasion. I love that she has a calming mood that was of great help in the otherwise bustling bridal cottage where the bridesmaids were getting ready. She has a great presence and is very skilled at her trade, as well as being pleasant to work with and accommodating. Thanks Sarahi!

    I feel so blessed that I found Pure Elegance and Sarahi! We flew out to Oregon from Wisconsin for a destination wedding at Timberline Lodge and after struggling to find a hair and makeup stylist, I happened upon Sarahi's contact info. Upon confirming that she was available on our date, she didn't hesitate for moment to book my appointment. I appreciated the fact that she was willing to travel to Government Camp and also take my appointment even though it was services for the bride only (we had a very small wedding with no bridal party). I was comfortable with Sarahi as soon as I met her! She listened to my vision of how I wanted to look and nailed it! She was open to feedback and did whatever she could to ensure that I was completely satisfied with my look. On the wedding day, she arrived early and stayed right on schedule. Through the whole process, Sarahi was professional, accommodating, and friendly. She is incredibly talented and my hair and makeup was flawless for the entire day and night. I can't imagine my wedding day without her!

    Oh my word! SO LUCKY to have found Sarahi. I booked her last minute for hair/makeup for myself and 2 of my bridesmaids and what a awesome decision that was! I have shortish shoulder length hair and was dying to wear it in a bun on my wedding day and she made it happen! I did the trial run with her at her studio a few days before the wedding and she didn't stop practicing and trying styles until she got it PERFECT! And trust me, it took us awhile to nail it but she was relentless. Thanks to Sarahi I felt like a princess on my wedding day! I would strongly recommend using her. She was kind, detail oriented, and made sure we were all taken care of along with providing different hair and make up styles for myself and the bridesmaids. I could not have found someone better to work with!

    Sarahi has a creative and unique style that leaves any bride feeling like a Bridal Queen. I had the greatest time working with her for my Engagement Photo Shoot as well as my wedding day bridal hair and makeup. She also did a couple of my girls' hair and makeup and they were left feeling stunning. I would recommend her to ANYONE looking for great hair and makeup!

    Sarahi was absolutely wonderful! She was very personable, professional, and reasonably priced. She listened to my ideas and created exactly what I wanted. She was pleasant to talk to and work with and also was very quick to respond to emails. I appreciated that she was super flexible and was able to accommodate a couple of my bridesmaids at the last minute. She came to my hotel to do my hair and makeup on the day of the wedding, which for me was a big stress lifted. I would highly recommend Sarahi!

    Sarahi does amazing work. We changed our time several times and she was very flexible. We also had to change from her getting me ready at the venue to at my house and she was totally fine with that. She is a very sweet and passionate person about her job. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to be stunning on there big day.

    Sarahi does an amazing job! I was able to do a trial run with her prior to the wedding. She uses really, really good product and my make-up and hair literally didn't move the entire day. This was after I was outside in the wind and also after crying several times. Sarahi was able to do exactly as I asked. I received several compliments on her work. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs wedding hair and make-up. She was able to get through my entire wedding party in a timely matter so that we could all get to the venue on time.

    Beautiful HMU!

    Sarahi did a good job! She is super sweet, easy to communicate with, and punctual. The trial went well and we were able to adjust how big my fake lashes were (they were too big during the trial so she was able to make them look more natural day-of). However, I had a couple minor hiccups. The first hiccup I had was that I liked my hair better during the trial than on the day of. I wanted a part-up, part-down look with a fishtail braid. This is exactly what I got during the trial. When she did my HMU on my wedding day she asked me if I would like the same hair style as I had during the trial, and I said yes. When my hair was done, it was a normal braid, not a fish tail braid. She asked me if I wanted her to re-do it, but it was already done, so I just left it. It wasn't that big of a deal to me, but can understand it could be a bigger deal to others. I would just be sure to over communicate what you want to her, especially on the day-of. The second hiccup I had was that my mom's fake lashes fell off two hours after HMU, and we were not given any kind of touch up kits or tips on how to keep our makeup in-tact throughout the day and into the night.

    Honestly, these are fairly minor issues. All in all, Sarahi did a great job and I would recommend her to others.

    Made my day magical

    Sarahi came to my hotel room at 5am ready to go. I had a difficult timeline and she was able to get everything done in a timely manner. I felt beautiful and still looked like myself.

    I am very pleased!

    Sarahi was a joy to work with for my wedding! I showed her a few pictures and she delivered the look exactly the way I wanted it. I even decided to have her put in some clip in hair extensions last minute and it looked amazing. She also did an amazing job with my bridesmaids!

    Sarahi was such a calming presence and well organized. She put me at ease I don't usually wear a lot of makeup and she made everyone look beautiful and feel great. I would recommend her.

    Sarahi is an extremely talented make-up artist and hair stylist. She was accommodating in making sure that I received my dream up-do for my mountain wedding. She was able to incorporate a flower comb beautifully and flawlessly into the style, which included braids and curls. Her make-up skills are top notch. I cried like a baby during my wedding and you couldn't even tell - nothing ran, it all stayed in place! Sarahi helped my perfect day possible. I highly recommend her!!

    Definitely do not Recommend

    As a bride I do not recommend Sarahi in any capacity

    I am not usually one to write bad reviews but I would hate if someone else had to go through the experience I did just barely a month before my wedding.

    Initially Sarahi was very sweet, easy to contact and communicated back and forth in a timely manner. Unfortunately Sarahi broke her hand a few days prior to my initial hair and makeup trial. Life happens, this was not a big deal, we rescheduled for after her surgery when she thought she would be able to start working on hair and makeup again. Again, she communicated everything very well and was super sweet about the unforeseen circumstances.

    The day of my hair and makeup trial was a complete disaster. My hair was the first to be done, she asked what I was going for, I showed her my inspiration photos and then she began to go to work. 2 hours later she was done, she only had one good hand to work with so I assume it took much longer then normal to fix, she couldn’t even pickup a bobbie pin with her bad hand. Again, this was not her fault she broke her hand, but I was hoping for a little more forthcoming about how she still wasn’t able to use her hand while fixing hair. When I looked in the mirror after she was done I was shocked, my hair looked nothing like my inspiration photos. I honestly thought she had wasn’t done with it yet but then she started moving toward her makeup. I understand this is a trial, so I told her what I’d like to make it better, maybe some more volume here and what not, her response was, “okay I’ll do that the day of the wedding”. My understanding of a trial was it was suppose to look like the day of so there were no surprises. I did not get this.

    When Sarahi started on my makeup she asked ZERO questions on what I wanted. I’m not one to wear a ton of makeup and was hoping for a more natural look. This was not what I got. The makeup for one, did not even match my skin tone. My two best friends who were with me were shocked. When leaving my trial I was told, the makeup will take time to settle. Little did I know this would take 6 hours, before I felt even remotely comfortable going in public. Not only that, but my hair did not even make it to the car before Bobbie pins started falling out.

    After communicating my concerns with Sarahi and her blaming me for: my face being too dry, my eyelashes not being thick enough, and my hair extensions for being too heavy, all things I thought was apart of her job, I decided to cancel my contract. This did not go over well and I’m continuing to try and get some sort of refund for the 50% deposit I had to put down prior to the trial.

    Booked Sarahi a few months before my wedding & was surprised she was available on my date. She said there wasn't a trial fee, so I immediately booked her & set up a "free" trial run. I constantly reminded her to email me contract info & eventually she got back to me. When we did the trial run she ended up charging me $75 but I didn't question it b/c I didn't want to be a "Bridezilla" and her rate was slightly lower than other hairstylists & the others were all booked on my date. Her hair trial was not to my liking, so the week before my wedding, I resent her the picture I wanted & to confirm the time.

    On the contract she asks what time the bride needs to be ready by & I specifically asked her “Is this the time I want you there or the time I want to be fully ready by?” She confirmed that it was ‘ready by’, so I listed 1PM. The week prior I was confirming that I wanted her there by 11 am & she immediately called me to tell me that she had double-booked me & that she thought I didn’t want here there until 1PM so she was going to show up at that time but since I wanted her there at 11 she would send an assistant (whom I’d never met) then she would arrive no later than 11:30 AM. I eventually said that I felt like I didn’t have a choice so that would be fine.

    The day of the wedding Ariel F., her assistant, was there at 10 am & did an amazing job on my hair; much better than Sarahi did! She stayed there until we were did pictures & was able to fix my hair in the middle of the photo session. She was really nice & professional. However, Sarahi never showed up, nor did she call to let me know. At bare minimum an email would have been a nice courtesy.

    I would NEVER recommend Sarahi to any future bride as communication was bad & she never bothered to let me know that she was not showing up on my wedding day. I was way happier than Ariel, so it worked out in the end. I wish Ariel had her own hair service as I would recommend her anytime!
