Most amazing hair and makeup vendor

My original hair and makeup team fell through about 3 weeks before my wedding and Alina was so professional and quick to help me get her team scheduled. I had Kamila, Alex, and Eka there for my wedding day and they were all so sweet, professional, efficient, and made everyones hair and makeup wishes come true! Everyone commented on how good our hair and makeup was. Kamila did my hair and makeup and was absolutely amazing to work with! We were all ready AHEAD of schedule and had plenty of time for touch ups! I called Alina day off and we added makeup for my mother in law because she liked the way everyones makeup was looking. Seriously so flexible, helpful, and kind. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Amazing Wedding Makeup!

I loved working with Alina's artists for my wedding! I had an amazing trial with Zhanna and the day of my wedding had a wonderful experience with Zhanna and Elena. My bridesmaids and I loved our hair and makeup and everyone looked so beautiful! I highly recommend them! :) I truly felt like a princess all day, thank you!! They were easy to work with, very responsive and flexible!

Fantastic!

Zhanna was my hair and makeup artist. Not only is she a calming, delightful presence, but she's fantastic and what she does. Cannot recommend her enough! Additionally, Alina was fast to respond to my booking request and displayed the highest level of professionalism - I was very thankful to find this vendor and appreciated how effortless they made the entire experience from inquiry through day-of support.
