Heather is absolutely AMAZING. I was nervous about scheduling my appointment, I am middle age, in menopause and have never really worn makeup. Heather put me at ease straight off. The experience was something that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. I left feeling better about myself than I had in a very long time. Heather made me feel less insecure about myself and helped me to see the positive's and to focus less on what I perceived as my flaws. Later, she emailed me a detailed list of products that would work best on my skin tone. The email also included reminders of how to apply the makeup correctly. Later that day, I took my Mom to an appt and the woman did not recognize me! The makeup I was wearing just brought out my features and was not a "ton of makeup". Every time, I put on makeup I think of Heather and smile. Heather is kind, understanding, helpful and makes you feel a beautiful human being. Highly Recommend Heather for all your make up needs, regardless if you are experienced or new to make up or want a glam up contact Heather, you will not be disappointed!
Heather is an absolute JOY to work with. She was fabulous at curating a makeup look that complimented and enhanced my natural beauty. I have blue eyes and she made them absolutely pop with the perfect colors of eyeliner, mascara and eyeshadow. She even made my eye shape look more naturally dramatic/elegant- something I’ve never seen anyone do with makeup before! I’m also fair & sensitive skinned and acne prone and she was very considerate in choosing products that wouldn’t irritate me and would also cover any blemishes I needed. She uses cruelty free products and is diligent about cleanliness which makes for a very comfortable experience. She styled my hair with curls and pinned it partially back with flowers which allowed for a natural yet elevated look. She’s is abundantly kind and a delight to chat with and is a great listener as well. She made me feel so naturally beautiful- I couldn’t have asked for a better artist! She is wonderfully creative and intentional with all of her makeup and hair choices. Highly highly highly recommend! Edit to add: I also did a lesson for my own hair and makeup for my elopement and it was so fun- Heather helped my figure out the right brushes, products and colors for my skin type/tones! I went in knowing nothing and feel so much more confident after she shared such personalized wisdom! Even though it rained on us, I still felt so beautiful :)
Heather has been amazing from the start! She did my, my mom’s and MIL hair and make up on my wedding day. She provides a comfortable space to share your thoughts, and she is so detailed and genuine as to the hair and makeup choices. I do not wear makeup on a daily basis, I had a vague idea of what I wanted, but she captured it so beautifully! Also, my skin had flare ups prior to this and she was very considerate about the items she used on my face and covered the blemishes. She ended up giving me skincare tips too. Despite a few challenges from our side, my mom and MIL looked and felt amazing through the night. We loved her natural approach to makeup, All of our hair and makeup stayed put through the night. She’s a great listener and communicator, very talented and kind. I highly recommend her for hair and makeup, it’s the best choice you can make. Thank you Heather! Photos by Naomi Phelps Photography
Heather was dreamy to work with! She is collaborative, creative, and the friendliest. She truly does keep the look natural, and my sensitive skin did not even react to the makeup she put on because she uses such good product. Heather was phenomenal on my wedding day, and having her there to help me get ready was genuinely a highlight of the day. I was running a little behind but she was flexible and accommodating. In moments of stress, she helped calm me down. She has a positive energy that radiates and makes those around her feel relaxed. I was so grateful to her! Heather felt inspired after she saw my flower crown on the wedding day and gave me an option to stick with our original plan for my hair (from our trial), or allow her to take an artistic route. I told her to take the artistic route, and her instinct resulted in absolute perfection with my hair! My hair and makeup stayed put ALL day and night, even after hours of dancing. Total magic! I was worried about having fake lashes all day, but she applied them so well that I didn’t even notice them. It was amazing. She also did the flower girl’s hair and simple makeup, as well as the hair of two of my sister’s, and everyone loved Heather and her work. She made all of us feel so beautiful and confident. Heather’s knowledge, skills, and creativity are a beautiful combination, and I would recommend her again and again for hair and makeup! Thank you, Heather!
Heather is absolutely lovely to work with! She was the first vendor we booked (after our venue) because I knew I needed a HMU team that only used cruelty free makeup, and she has that industry in ATX locked down for good reason. She doesn't hesitate to share her opinion on what she thinks will/won't work for you, but still worked well with my feedback. She's meticulous with fine tuning HMU details until everything is just right. Our lashes stayed on all day/night, mascara and eyeliner didn't budge, and my foundation stayed smooth/wore evenly in light of ALL the dancing. My only complaint is that my hair fell almost immediately after our ceremony, though we had a game plan for that in case it happened (I had an outdoor wedding and it was humid, so really I'm just glad it held up through family photos). I do wish she would have done my hair in the same manner as my bridesmaids' since I asked that we all have the same style, and theirs stayed all night so maybe mine would have lasted a bit longer. But all is well that ends well, and at the end of the day I would recommend Heather to anybody in need of HMU services for a wedding or event! And I would book her again! Thank you Heather!
