    Amazing, relaxing, beautiful!

    I met Shelby a few years ago when she was doing lash extensions. It was a no brainer to have her do my wedding make up. I flew her to Sedona, AZ and she did mine and my moms hair and make up, and make up for my mother in law and brothers gf. Everyone was so happy with how they looked and Shelby was so sweet to everyone. I told Shelby I’d fly her to Europe if I needed to to have her do my make up. She’s amazing and I’ll definitely use her again for anything else I might need.

    Can She Do My Makeup Every Day?

    Shelby did my mom and my hair and makeup before my intimate wedding ceremony in December. She is so kind and fun to be around, and she was definitely a highlight of my wedding day! She communicated with us so well about what looks we were going for, and she executed them beautifully. Shelby made me feel so beautiful before and after she did my makeup, and I didn’t want to wash my face at the end of the night! I am super excited to work with Shelby again before our wedding reception next fall.

    Shelby is great!

    Shelby did make up for my wedding for myself, five bridesmaids, and 2 moms. I went with Shelby because I liked her natural beauty make up style. I loved my wedding make-up! All the bridesmaids also loved their looks that day. Would highly recommend hiring Shelby for your wedding!

    Would not go with anybody else!

    From the moment that I reached out to Shelby, to the time that she finished my makeup on my wedding day she was so easy going and easy to work with. My makeup was absolutely perfect and all of my bridesmaids/moms loved theirs as well. One of my bridesmaids even asked me for her info to try and get her booked for her wedding next year. I would 1000x over use Shelby again and know that I will go to her if I have any event in the future. She is the sweetest person and is amazing at what she does!

    Shelby to the rescue!

    I had issues with a previous hair/makeup artist and when I found that I needed to switch vendors only a few weeks prior to my wedding, Shelby went above and beyond making sure I was taken care of, even if it was super last minute! Not only that, she did a phenomenal job on my makeup and it didn't budge even though I cried during my First Look AND the ceremony!! 10/10 would recommend!!

    10/10 recommend!

    Shelby has done my makeup for a boudoir shoot and a styled shoot and she ALWAYS kills it. She is so so sweet, very professional and so good at listening to what you want. She can make anyone feel beautiful! Book her and you will NOT regret it 💖 photo is the makeup she did on me 😊

    Good hair for wedding

    Shelby did a great job on my wedding last year. I recommend her and appreciate the time she took to make my hair the way I wanted. The trial went well and the final result was better than the trial. Thanks you!

    Wedding makeup/hair

    Rene did a wonderful job with my make up for my wedding! I had four bridesmaids and two mothers getting hair and make up done and Rene and Katie who did our hair did a fantastic job! They did nice natural make up that looked great in photos! The hair and make up was light and I felt comfortable all night and it lasted through dancing! Both ladies were very kind low key and an enjoyable addition to our getting ready day of party. Would highly recommend Rene!! Reasonable prices, very kind and did a great job!

    Exceeded Expectations!

    Shelby arrived early and got my make-up done quickly. She asked questions about how I wanted to look and tailored her work to my tastes. I was so impressed with her talent and the results were amazing. My make-up lasted all day with no need to even touch-up with powder. She is so sweet and was such fun to work with!

    HMUA Cancelled 3 Weeks Before the Wedding (for 4 ppl)

    I originally was not going to leave a review but I think it's important to let other brides know about my experience.

    I originally reached out to Shelby in late Jan and booked a trial and signed my contract on 4/3 for my 9/1 wedding for both hair and makeup for bride + 3 bridesmaids. I think that Shelby is an amazing makeup artist but ultimately was unprofessional and ended up canceling 3 weeks before my wedding. She did not find a hairstylist for me until less than a month before the wedding as her original partner was no longer available with the hair trial only booked a few days before the wedding. She reached out to finalize the timeline day off 8/10. Original contract (signed and paid a deposit for in April) stated per my request to be ready by 4:30 pm. She asked if she could come from 11:00am - 2:00pm instead. I kindly asked her to honor the contract that was already signed as I did not wish to get ready too early for my wedding and that I was willing to compromise with her leaving at 4:00 pm. I did not tell her but it also rubbed me the wrong way that she wanted to fit in both hair and makeup for bride + 3 bridesmaids in such a tight timeframe (when I googled the average length of bridal makeup stated 60-90 min). I got the sense that she was overbooked and stretched too thin. I wanted to be paying for services to feel pampered, beautiful, and stress-free on my wedding, not to feel rushed, and to have old faded makeup by the time I walked down the aisle. She ended up giving me my deposit back without me asking for it back and made a sad attempt to reach out to another makeup artist who was available that day (only provided name and email, did not facilitate the conversation at all or show her portfolio or pricing, did not find a hair replacement for me, no guaranteed price match). As a POC with hooded monolids, I did not feel confident or comfortable that her "replacement" would make me feel beautiful without a trial, and with only 3 weeks out from my wedding did not have time to do another one. I ended up finding her "replacement" on IG but she did not showcase any POC as her models (me and my bridal party are very diverse). There was also still the question of being left without a hair person... Even though I got my deposit back, I still wasted $100 on the trial and I had my entire day planned around the fact I would have a hair and makeup team to help me and my bridal party get ready in our airbnb (that I also probably would not have booked if I had known I wouldn't have a hair and makeup artist. My advice would be to ask your wedding venders about what their policy is if THEY cancel (she never ended up sending me her final invoice because I think she knew she was planning on canceling on me).
