    AMAZING hair & makeup artist!

    Shaina is an incredibly gifted hair & makeup artist. She made me, my mom and my wedding party look and feel so beautiful for my wedding day! Shaina is professional, reliable and so sweet. :) I did a hair and makeup trial with her as well and she was so patient and helpful at figuring out the right look for me - I highly recommend a trial as well! This is a big decision to make for your wedding day and Shaina will not disappoint!

    My hero! Out of town bride with one week left to lock down a look.

    Shaina came through for me! My previous makeup artist canceled and I was an out of town bride. Shaina was able to to a trial the week before the wedding and she inspired so much confidence that I was not worried at all about the day of look. I felt and looked amazing. She also was able to do makeup for the mother of the bride and maid of honor! My mom and my sister looked great!

    If I ever want professional hair/makeup done again, I am going to her immediately!

    Shaina was so nice to interact with, she was always personable and would check in on how wedding planning was coming. She was very understanding when I needed to reschedule and was very receptive to the little changes I asked for after my trial. I have had hair/makeup done for a wedding before and the way they handled my requests was night and day.

    My hair and makeup stayed looking good the next day for our family brunch, so it was easy getting back out of the hotel and actually enjoying time with family.

    If I ever want professional hair/makeup done again, I am going to her immediately!

    Bridal Hair and Makeup

    Shaina did a great job on my wedding day. She styles my hair and makeup just as I wanted and made me feel confident and beautiful. It lasted all day in the Arizona heat too! She is punctual and responsive and I would recommend her services to anyone.

    Amazing experience and she is very talented!

    I couldn't have asked for better wedding makeup and hair! Shaina did such a wonderful job, she asked questions to get to know what I wanted and what our theme or style was. The day of I even asked if we could change up the shade a bit and without hesitation and a smile on her face she had no problem and was prepared! I would highly recommend her!

    Patient, priced fairly and quality work. Overall amazing!

    I hired Shaina for my wedding back in March. We initially did a hair trial but not makeup. My friend that does hair offered to do my hair as a gift and I let Shaina know, she was super understanding and okay with still doing only my makeup. She was on time, super relaxed and helped me stay calm. I wanted a natural look and got exactly that!

    Amazing work!!

    Shaina is amazing! She did my hair and makeup for both engagement photos and our wedding and both times were flawless! She’s super fun and personable as well. Sitting for my hair/makeup was one of the best and most relaxing parts of the whole day and that has a huge part to do with Shaina as a person! If you’re looking elsewhere, stop and just go with her!

    Calm, Cool, & Collected

    Shaina was so wonderful to work with for the wedding. Getting married/the wedding day is so hectic that it can feel so stressful to get ready for on the day. We were so lucky to have hired Shaina to be there not only to give us the exact hair we were looking for, but to be a solid rock on the morning of the wedding. Shaina went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and provided us with extra services on the fly. We realized the day of we forgot fake lashes and Shaina was there to swoop in to provide them. We also did not invest in any nice hairspray and Shaina was there to help with that too. Hiring Shaina is a no-brainer and the best part is just her being in the room calmed everyone's nerves. She is professional but friendly and it felt like we had a best friend there to do our hair and make sure we were all put together. We will hire again for anything!

    Shai was Critical to the success of my wedding

    I’ll be honest- I was a stressed bride. However, every time I spoke to or met with Shai, i would come out of the interaction calmed and excited.
    Shai did hair and makeup for myself and my mom, along with hair for all 6 of my bridesmaids. She started the day super early at my request so we could ensure arrival to the venue on time, and even better, she was ahead of schedule the entire day. I believe we ended up finishing almost half an hour early, with the highest quality achieved.
    She was also able to work magic and make my makeup look smooth and beautiful, despite some surprise acne and dry skin trying to say otherwise!
    Do yourself a favor. Hire Shai- you’ll be glad you did.
    (Also worthwhile to note that we needed an additional makeup artist to handle a few bridesmaid makeups, and Shai handled finding someone entirely, and they were also lovely!)

    Shaina is one of the most professional hair and make up artists I have worked with. She did my wedding and everything turned out exactly the way I asked for it. I highly recommend her for any event.

    Excellent all around

    Shai has done my hair and makeup on multiple occasions, including on my wedding day. She asks questions to make sure she is clear about the look you are going for, and gets it right every time. She is professional, kind, and great at what she does.

    Great hair and makeup

    Shai did my hair and makeup for my wedding and it came out great! She pays close attention to detail and did a trial beforehand so I knew exactly how I’d look the day of and make changes. She’s done a few of my friends weddings now because we all trust her!

    Deposit issue

    Overall she did an amazing job with my hair and my bridal party. My only concern is that when I had booked with her she required $100 deposit which is fine, all of my vendors did too so I had no issue sending her a deposit. However all of my other vendors I placed a deposit to went towards the final balance, Hera did not. When I paid the final balanced I had asked her about it TWICE and TWICE she ignored my question. Keep in mind that when I send over the balance the week of my wedding I also included tip, so basically I tipped her twice or that what it seems like to me anyways. For future brides looking to book make sure you get clarity on that $100 deposit and what it is actually going towards since it clearly was not going towards my balance for her services, but feels like something extra she just pocketed.
