Nataly did my, my mom and my niece’s hair on September and we LOVED her job. Even though she had only a few hours before the ceremony, she was able to finish everything on time with high quality. I received a lot of compliments for my hair. I was able to dance until the end of the night and my hair was still pretty good! Thank you, Nataly! She was very helpful since she is bilingual and my mom did not speak English.

Tiffany Purdy Bridal Makeup Hair Artist did a wonderful job for my wedding day. Their communication was great, and Tiffany is so sweet! The quality of their work was truly flawless - they created a natural, elegant glam look that made me and my entire bridal party feel stunning and confident. Tiffany's team kept us laughing and chatting like old friends the whole time we were receiving services. I wish I had managed our timeline a bit better or started the process earlier, as it took a little longer than expected for everyone to finish up. But overall, Tiffany and her team were a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend their services.

Raven Reed | Luxury Bridal Beauty 

5.0

San Francisco, CA
  • Starts at $1,800

My work can be described as elevated, intentional, and polished. Whether I am working with a bride who prefers to look more like their natural selves or a bride who is a sucker for full glam, I strive to create a luxurious experience for my clientele on their wedding day. Customizing your look with even the most subtle details can prove to be so impactful in enhancing your beauty. I can’t take all of the credit though! Your beauty inspires me— And at the core of it all, your own beautiful face is the roadmap to creating the most elevated version of yourself.

I cannot say enough good things about Raven! We booked to do hair and makeup for my June 2020 wedding, and Raven was alongside me every step of the way as I completely changed my plans for what my wedding would be like. We wound up having a small wedding in June, and due to the coronavirus Raven was not able to come, but she instead made me an INCREDIBLE makeup tutorial guide, talked me through doing my own hair and makeup so that I could be safe, and now I feel I walked away with great hair and makeup for my wedding day and now the skills to do it again in the future! I highly recommend working with Raven for any hair or makeup need, either in person or as an online tutorial-- she is kind, flexible, funny, and understanding and really helped me to navigate a hard situation with grace.

I am a licensed Esthetician and Borboleta certified lash artist, and I've loved furthering my education within the beauty industry. My skill set is constantly evolving and I strive to give only the best to all of my amazing clients.

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly loved my make-up on my wedding day and I recommend Lacquer And Lashes! Nicole was the best that I could have asked for - my bridesmaids agree too. From our very first interaction, Nicole's communication was prompt, professional, kind, and open - I truly felt heard throughout the entire process. I attended my trial a little unsure about what I wanted but I left feeling absolutely confident that I made the right choice. Right after my trial, my soon-to-be husband saw me and immediately loved my look. On my wedding day, Nicole's calm, warm presence was exactly what I needed to start my day. After my make-up application, I looked in the mirror and was so pleased with my results. I was ready to slip on my dress and get the party started. My 2 sisters, both my Matrons of Honor, loved their make-up too. Nicole is very talented and I can recommend her work without any hesitation. I am even thinking about returning to her for lash extensions, something I didn't think I would want but she makes them look so good!

    Amy Lawson Makeup & Hair

    San Francisco, CA
    • Team of 5
    • Starts at $500

    Amy Lawson is a San Francisco based professional makeup & hair artist with over two decades of experience. She has provided her services to brides from intimate City Hall weddings to lavish destination weddings. Amy has travelled across the globe from Las Vegas to Thailand, to create stunning looks for her clients. Her work has been featured in numerous wedding publications. She has worked on celebrities like Neil Patrick Harris and Ali Wong, as well as events like the Golden Globe Awards. Her many years of experience and expertise make her a valuable asset to any special event!

    Amy is the beauty professional I most admire working with, from set-up to beauty session to take-down. I have been a hair and makeup artist in the wedding and film industry for fifteen years. She is an artist keen to bring out her clients' natural beauty with flawless finishes. You won't know you are wearing makeup, and everyone will notice how incredible you look. She uses light touches to enhance your look but can replicate more dramatic looks. Tell Amy what you desire, and she will make that look work for you. In addition to her talents, it is a pleasure to work with Amy. She is well-organized, respectful, empathetic, on-time, and she will put you and your group at ease. I love that she brings her fabulously curated cosmetics of the best brands that will last all day (she's tried them all), which are impeccably clean. Every time I have worked with Amy at a wedding or on a film set, she brings the strongest talent in the industry with her. My favorite memory of working with Amy was styling a bridal party in Napa, California. It was a large group of women from Texas who savored their breakfast tacos while we styled them. Amy's five hand-picked artists transformed each bridesmaid and the bride from bedheads and tired eyes from a party the night before into stunning ladies who looked like they slept well. One bridesmaid left the hotel suite where everyone's hair and makeup were being done right after we showed her the finished look. When the bride asked, 'Where did you go?,' she replied, 'I never looked so good in my whole life and wanted to show my husband.' Her hair was disheveled from a romantic romp with her husband, who also loved her look, and we were happy to freshen her hair.

We’ve taken our love for makeup, coupled with our combined 25+ years of experience, to work in synergy and showcase our artistry to the masses.

    Primed Makeup was the first makeup trial I did and I didn't look further. I didn't bother because I absolutely loved Danny's work! Danny and Tiffany are amazing MUAs! Danny did my make up and I was very very happy. He is a perfectionist and did such a beautiful job highlighting my features. I had a pretty big bridal party (8 girls) so I was worried that not everyone would get their make up done on time but Danny and Tiffany planned accordingly and started on us at the break of dawn, worked their magic to get everyone done in time for the tea ceremony and we all looked stunning! I was very pleased with the results and the makeup lasted me all night. I got so many compliments about my make up! I felt like a million bucks! My bridesmaids looked like a million bucks! The whole gang was a million bucks! I felt like a million bucks! My bridesmaids looked like a million bucks! The whole gang was a million bucks! haha

Went to beauty school and earned an esthetician license in SF as well. Specializing in Bridal and special occasion makeup. I can travel to you.

Her meticulous attention to detail and understanding of makeup for men ensured that the final look was natural, enhancing my features without appearing overly done. Emily's skillful application not only made me camera-ready but also boosted my confidence, allowing me to feel comfortable and assured throughout the shoot. Beyond her technical expertise, Emily's warm demeanor and genuine care for her clients truly set her apart. She took the time to listen to my preferences and concerns, tailoring the makeup to suit my style and ensuring I felt entirely comfortable with the final look. I highly recommend Emily's men's beauty services at ArtistBeautySF.com, especially for those seeking a natural yet polished appearance for any and all special occasions like photo shoots or weddings. Her talent, professionalism, and personal touch make her an invaluable asset for anyone looking to enhance their appearance seamlessly.

My experience in HD, bridal, editorial, special event, and special effect makeup has allowed me to work with a diversity of clients. With a specialty in bridal and special event makeup, I work directly with you in order to create your vision that is timeless and beautiful.

      Jenny did makeup for my grandma, mom, mother in law, sister in law, and myself for my wedding and I have zero complaints. Everyone's makeup looked absolutely amazing. I've never felt more beautiful and it looked amazing in photos. When we did my trial I asked for a more glowy look since I had never done one before and it ended up not being for me. I gave her all my notes from the trial about what I liked and didn't like and on the wedding day she took those notes absolutely nailed it. Super important to have a trial so you can give her your feedback and also so she can see the condition of your skin and make any recommendations for skin care so your skin is in the best condition it can be come wedding day. (If you look at her Google reviews I posted 2 pictures of my makeup)

      Christina ''Quis'' Chen began her formal makeup training in her teens while assisting an established bridal makeup artist. After graduating from college with a business degree, she decided to pursue her dreams and relocate to Hollywood where she attended the prestigious Cinema Makeup School for further training. She is also a licensed esthetician. Her work has been published internationally in multiple magazine publications, films and TV. She is also a co-founder of MENU Beauty, a brand celebrating natural beauty.

      Christina and I have worked many years together and continue to book the same brides. Our clients recognize our work and love that we also get along really well! Christina understands my photography style and knows how to apply hair and makeup to show up well in my photos. Christina is very talented and knows how to do hair and makeup in any style, but she really excels at doing natural hair and makeup that enhances a bride's look. There's just something about her technique that makes a bride looking fresh for the entire day. The makeup is never heavy or overdone. I love when Christina stays during the wedding because she is the most helpful assistant whether she is touching up the bride, holding her bouquet/purse, grabbing her water, fluffing her gown/veil, etc., she is the always on guard to make sure the bride's wedding day goes as smoothly as possible. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Christina to all of my brides! She's one of the best in the industry!!

      Having Alicia as my hair and makeup artist for my wedding day was the perfect choice, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Alicia is truly amazing at her craft. She did my hair for my engagement shoot, and I was blown away by how beautiful it looked. She also did my makeup for my bridal shower, and I received so many compliments from friends and family. I knew that having her do BOTH my hair and makeup on my wedding day was going to result in something absolutely stunning, and she did not disappoint. Alicia is not only incredibly talented, but she's also a joy to work with. She is professional, yet chill and easy to talk to. She really understands the vibe you're going for, and nothing feels forced. Alicia makes it a priority to ask about your preferences—what you do and don’t like—so she can make all the right adjustments after hair and makeup trials. By the time the wedding day came, I had complete confidence that she would give me exactly what I envisioned. And when she handed me the mirror after completing my hair and makeup, I CRIED. She absolutely nailed it. The look she created was beautiful, dreamy, sexy, chic, and timeless all at once—it was exactly what I wanted. Our wedding guests couldn’t stop gushing over how beautiful I looked, and I felt like a true version of myself, only more polished and radiant than ever before. Alicia delivered more than just a look; she made me feel incredibly confident and stunning on my special day. A huge shoutout as well to makeup artists Maila and Kate, who helped with hair and makeup for my bridal party. Everyone looked absolutely gorgeous, and they were all so happy with how their hair and makeup turned out. Maila and Kate were both so sweet and accommodating, ensuring that each lady loved their final look. The entire team made the experience feel effortless and fun, and our bridal party was truly glowing. If you’re looking for a hair and makeup artist who is not talented but also easy to work with and truly listens to your vision, Alicia is your person. She made my wedding day even more unforgettable, and I’m so grateful for her expertise and professionalism.

      Dayna was incredible! I was struggling to find someone to do my hair a few weeks before my wedding, and the people I did find were non committal and didn’t seem super interested. But the instant I found Dayna she was enthusiastic, engaging, and flexible. She really cared and wanted me to have what I needed for my wedding. I shared my inspiration photos with her and our trial session was amazing. It helped her get a few ideas to finalize my look on my wedding day, the subtle changes were amazing and I felt beautiful and confident. She also did my make up last minute as well, and gave me exactly what I wanted. She went above and beyond and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.

      Kim Baker Beauty is all about helping people feel like their best self, inside and out. This is so much more than makeup. We don't take it lightly that we are the first people you are with on your wedding day. How we make you feel is our top priority.

      Awarded Best of Zola
      My wedding was 10-02-2022 at Temescal Beach House in Oakland. Kim did my hair and make-up as well as the hair and make-up of my mom and 2 bridesmaids. Throughout the process-from my very first phone/video call with her, until the wedding day- Kim was kind, responsive, professional, and completely fantastic. She's genuine and calming which for me, was exactly what I wanted. I do not wear make-up or do my hair so this was the aspect of my day-of wedding prep that I was most worried about. I didn't want heavy make-up or to not look like myself. I also didn't have a pinterest board or a ton of my own ideas because that world (of hair and make-up) is intimidating to me and just not a language I speak. Kim was SO good at giving me options, talking me through things, and REALLY listening to my preferences. She was adaptive and sincere throughout the process and I felt SO beautiful on my wedding day. I looked like me, but leveled up a few notches, and my friends and family recognized me. The hair and make-up also lasted all day which was awesome. Kim is seriously the best (also queer friendly which was great). I cannot recommend her more highly.

      Sarah traveled for my up north elopement to do my hair and makeup, and I am so thankful for her flexibility and talents! We did a trial run and communicated back and forth on what tweaks to make so the final look would be perfect. On the day of, Sarah came fully prepared for any situation - including snow for the outside ceremony! My makeup was perfect for the entire day and shined through the pictures.

      I have always been passionate about beauty! When clients ask me how long I have been doing this, my answer is: "I have about 13 years of experience doing makeup but 7 years doing makeup professionally". I started off initially doing makeup for friends and family, then family friends + friends of friends. I then got a job working at Sephora where I learned a lot about products and working w/ different skin types/tones, ages and styles of makeup etc for 7 years. In 2018 I decided to assist another bridal MUA and that is where I was introduced to the bridal/wedding world & I have loved it since! Booking 2025 weddings now!

      Danica was very organized and detailed! She helped coordinate makeup for a large bridal party-9 bridesmaids, a bride, and 2 moms! She was open to any feedback during the makeup trial and did a great job on creating a beautiful look for my wedding day. Everyone looked amazing. Really kind and helpful. Highly recommend! :)

      Hi there, I’m Lauren! I am a Bay Area makeup artist that has been in the beauty industry for 5+ years. My signature makeup style is "soft glam" which is suitable for any anyone between natural to glam brides. Working with me as your wedding makeup artist would not only include the makeup application itself but also around the clock email/ text communication from the very beginning of the booking process to the wedding day. My main priority is to ensure you have a smooth booking process with me and a stress-free wedding morning.

      I booked Lauren for my sister’s wedding for her (bride), myself and my mom and she did amazing. We told her the style and look we were going for and she exceeded our expectations and so much more, because when I mean she made us look flawless, I mean it. I was taking selfies and so many photo because I felt sooo gorgeous! I loved every product Lauren used on me. I had to write them down and purchase them for myself after! Aside from how beautiful we felt and looked, Lauren was super sweet and professional. She arrived on time and finished us all on time too which is such a big deal for your wedding because the day goes by so quickly. Thank you again, Lauren for making us look and feel so beautiful on my sister’s special day!

      I'm new to Zola, but not to Bridal Hair! With 17 years dedicated to crafting beautiful hair, and 8 of those in Bridal styling. My experience aids to specializing in varying styles - from vintage, to boho, to a modern esthetic. Recently, my partner and I made the exciting move to Portland from San Francisco. I can’t wait to discover all the stunning wedding venues the PNW has to offer! When I'm not doing hair, you can find me trying a new coffee shop, making kombucha, or hiking with my husband and our dog, Livia. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

      I hired April for my wedding day and I could not be happier with the entire process. She was super responsive and got my trial booked with very short notice. The day of the wedding I completely changed the style I wanted and she was so accommodating and did such an amazing job. She did all my bridesmaids as well and everyone looked perfect. She is the best!!!

      For nearly ten years I have learned to master this beautiful art. I have dedicated myself to my small business, which has grown into something I could have never imagined. I started with nothing but the desire to make people feel beautiful. I envisioned bringing happiness to people through the power of makeup. Nothing compares to the feeling of making people feel beautiful and confident. Even after all this time, I have never lost my passion. I still enjoy watching each Bride excitement as i finish their look. I hope that you can consider me as your first choice to bring your perfect bridal look to life. I am confident that I could deliver!

      I worked with Madi on a styled bridal shoot. This was the second time working with her. What separates Madi from the rest is her bubbly personality, how she speaks with her clients through the entire process and gives advice on best uses/products. I recommend Madi.
