Had an amazing experience with Paytin for our Disney wedding and theme park photo shoots. The wedding was on Halloween and Paytin did such a wonderful job at creating more dramatic looks for the events. She was so sweet and helpful. Loved the makeup and hairstyles for all three days!

Fairytale Hair & Makeup was great! They did hair and makeup for all 8 of my bridesmaids as well as my mom, godmother and myself. Everyone’s hair and makeup looked great. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of their services. Awesome job!

A week has passed since our intimate civil wedding on 11-15-24 and I’m still on cloud 9. fairytale services made my special day feel like a fairytale! Lily did my makeup and hair that day and I felt like a bride. She was very receptive to any adjustments I wanted. Advice to brides is do the makeup trial! The final look was 10 xs better on my wedding day. Thank you for making me feel beautiful! Thank you Lily for being my calm before my crazy wedding day! So worth it and I will be booking again for my church wedding. 🤍 ( I will post later when I receive photos from photographer)

Fairytale Hair and Makeup are like a dream come true fairytale to work with. They handled our large bridal party (about 13 of us) with ease, and actually finished ahead of schedule. There was no stress and everyone looked beautiful and was happy with their hair and makeup. Myline was our lead artist and she is so kind and so willing to help / answer any questions. Coordination and planning was always super easy. The vibe they created in the dressing room was full of laughter, fun, and joy. I can't recommend them enough!

Jazmin is amazing! She was my makeup artist for my wedding and also did my bridesmaids hair. She patiently listened and helped me with a nice look during my makeup trial. And she made me feel like the best version of myself for my wedding day.

Fairytale Hair and Makeup was literally a dream to work with. I am a Disney CM of 20+ years and I can see why they are the preferred vendor. I did not have a "Disney" wedding but they made sure I felt like a princess on my wedding day. Meghan was an actual angel. From the trial before the wedding to my wedding day, I couldn't have asked for a better makeup/hair artist. She did mine and my 3 bridesmaids hair and makeup and it all came out so beautiful. Better than my imagination could have ever came up with. THANK YOU FOR EVEYTHING and helping make my childhood dream wedding come to life.

Michelle and Meghan of Fairytale Hair and Makeup were absolutely amazing from the very beginning! Very responsive, always kind, and incredibly professional! Michelle and Meghan were right on time to meet at the very early hour of 3:45am and were just the best to work with! They worked quickly while still making us feel very comfortable and ensuring we look and feel our very best! Our hair and makeup stayed amazing the entire day without needing any further touch ups! Thank you again for being such a vital part of my wedding day!!

Fairytale Hair and Makeup did an amazing job!! Artists Lindsay and Kimberly made myself and my whole bridal party look fabulous, while also just being really great to hangout with and chat!!

Fairytale was a dream come true - ACTUALLY. The moment we met Lizz and Tara, our hair and makeup anxieties were completely gone. We changed very little after our trials, as they were able to capture what we wanted the very first time. In my situation there were 2 brides so that can heighten stress (a lot more hair and makeup than a traditional bridal party) but they did amazingly and finished ahead of schedule with plenty of time leftover for second looks and final touches. Couldn’t have had our day without them!!! Thank you again, Tara and Lizz :)

I want to kick this review off by saying in the loudest digital voice possible -- Meghan Zambada is incredible! My wife and I both loved having her as our stylist for both our engagement shoot (see my Google Profile photo) and our wedding (see attached). She did an amazing job of capturing what we requested in our inspiration photos, and also made us feel incredibly comfortable and supported throughout the whole process. Note -- I have the longer hair, and Meghan did my makeup and hair, while Addison only needed hairstyle services for the day of the wedding. While I do have a couple of small critiques of the company, I want to make it clear that they do amazing work and I would still recommend them to other couples. My recommendations for improvement are as follows: 1. In my opinion, there should be more affordable packages offered to add on your wedding party's hair and makeup services. None of our wedding party members were able to opt in due to the expense. 2. The online portal Fairytale Hair & Makeup has for communication and payment is not very user friendly. I had to go through 2FA via my email each time I logged in, and often it wasn't clear who I was speaking with. Sometimes replies were delayed, and isn't wasn't clear what specific payment requests were for. The company allows payments via cash or Venmo, but then the online payments still show up as due. I would recommend an overhaul of the system to make it more user-friendly for event couples. Again, overall, we had a great experience with Meghan and the team and hope to work with her again for future events!

Alicia was AMAZING! I can’t say enough good things about her. We had a 6am start time with her arrival at 5:45 (Woof). She was not only perfectly on time, but super on top of it all morning. I had a super stressful wedding (full DIY) and she was so great about feeling out my vibe and matching it. I was super anxious, so she was just calm and quiet and doing her thing. Not only was she the exact vibes I needed, but I LOVED my hair and makeup! I was a bit nervous since I had made some notes from my trial. Alicia really took in all my notes and executed it flawlessly. She even read my mind a bit and covered parts where you could see my scalp (gotta love curly hair) with brown eyeshadow before I could ask for it! I was also adamant that I wanted to use my own curls for my wedding and she was so awesome about it! She really knows how to handle styling curls and how to break them apart without frizzing. She was gentle and purposeful with every piece. My makeup lasted all day and I got so many compliments on it! It was the perfect balance between full glam bridal and makeup that I would do myself for nice events. I still looked like ME, just with REALLY well done makeup!

It was a pleasure working with Tara & Frances on my (+ family) hair and makeup for my wedding. They were extremely professional, made me feel confident and easily took my direction from the trial to day-of makeup. My venue and wedding coordinator recommended Fairytale Hair & Makeup and I'm so glad that I did!

Myline from Fairytale makeup made me look absolutely beautiful for my wedding! She did both my hair and makeup and was so professional and patient even when things didn’t go as planned. I would highly recommend them for all of your special occasion beauty needs!

Fairytale was great to work with for my formal event. A girlfriend and I got hair and makeup done & we were both happy with the results. The gals were so fun and easy to talk to. They worked with the looks we wanted but also had beautiful ideas based on their experience and expertise! I hope to work with them again in the future.

Had a great experience with Lizz and Tara! These ladies were the best—they did hair and make up for myself (bride), 5 bridesmaids, my mom and MIL, everyone was super happy! Would highly recommend!

Kelly was amazing! She came directly to me for our makeup trial, which made things so much easier in the midst of wedding planning. Day of, she was right on time arriving to our rental condo & she did a great job staying on track - which is saying a lot, as three of my bridesmaids have very thick hair! She did hair for my bridesmaids & my makeup. Everyone's hair held up well throughout the long day, and my makeup stayed BEAUTIFUL despite the summer heat & long hours. She did a great job of helping me reach a natural low-key glam look that fit in so well.

Makeup was exactly what I wanted and the booking process was simple, made the wedding day less stressful!

Nataly is amazing! Not only did she do an incredible job on my hair and makeup, but my party as well! I wanted to go for a more natural look (which can be hard) and I was amazed with all her work! I looked natural and elevated as every bride would hope for. Would highly recommend Nataly and Fairytale Hair & Makeup!

Fairytale Hair and Makeup did an amazing job for me, my mom, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and our grandmas on my wedding day! We had Lizz for makeup and Kim for hair, and they were both great! I did a trial (highly recommend) and they both helped make changes on the day-of to make my look exactly what I was hoping for. All of us girls felt gorgeous! They were on time, professional, and friendly. I'm happy I went with this team to get me all ready for the big day!

I absolutely adored my wedding hair and makeup from Fairytale! They not only listened to what I wanted but encouraged me to point out any changes. I received so many compliments throughout the night!

I got Married on June 8, 2024. Tara was my hairstylist from Fairytale Hair and Makeup and I cant even begin to explain how amazing she was. She made me feel so comfortable and right at home on the day of my hair trial. Then when the wedding day came she literally blew me away!! She was able to work so quickly and efficiently with our timeline and made every one of my bridesmaids look soooo beautiful and perfect. Tara did my hair so beautiful and it exceeded all of my expectations and I couldn't believe how amazing it looked. She is a perfectionist like me so her attention to detail was perfect and my hair lasted all night. I highly recommend booking them for your wedding and ask for Tara if possible. Thank you for making me feel so beautiful Tara!!!

My experience was great with Fairytale Hair & Makeup. From booking services to doing a bridal trial, and to the day of! Nataly and Liz were the artists that took care of my trial and day of services for me and my family. They were punctual and super fun to work with! I really liked how after showing them pictures on pinterest, they explained to us how it would work based on our hair and skin tones.

The two ladies that did hair and make up were amazing for my special day. They were on time and were able to do whatever anyone need and even had great advice to make all of us look amazing. I would recommend them to anyone. They were great from first contact with them all the way till the day of my event. Thank you so much for making us look amazing.

Fairytale Hair and Makeup was a joy to work with! Very responsive to messages and patient with my many questions. Jazmin was my hair and make-up artist. She is incredibly talented, kind, and professional. She did hair for three bridesmaids and both hair and make-up for me (bride). Jazmin made the getting ready process fun and relaxing. I went back and forth on the lip color and Jazmin was very patient and took time to ensure I felt my best. I recommend Fairytale Hair and Makeup!

I had the most incredible experience with Kim and Lindsey from Fairytale Hair and Makeup for my wedding! From the initial consultation to the big day, their professionalism and talent were evident in every interaction. Kim worked her magic with my hair, creating a style that was both elegant and perfectly suited to my vision. She listened attentively to my ideas and provided valuable suggestions that enhanced the overall look. The end result was a hairstyle that stayed flawless throughout the entire day and night, despite all the dancing and celebration! Lindsey’s expertise in makeup was equally impressive. She crafted a look that was natural yet stunning, highlighting my best features without feeling overdone. Lindsey’s attention to detail and skill in color matching ensured that my makeup complemented my skin tone and wedding dress beautifully. I felt like the best version of myself, and the makeup lasted impeccably from the ceremony to the reception.

Lulu was amazing! She was so kind and helpful, and very detailed in her work. Thank you so much for making our event wonderful.

My hair stylist cancelled on me a month before my wedding, but as a referral from my wedding planner, I booked Fairy Tale last minute and wow did they deliver! They made everything so easy and seamless and completely put my mind at ease. I was so confident in my stylist Alma’s ability to achieve the style I was looking for that I didn’t even book a trial due to the lack of time before the big day. Alma showed up on time and had such a soothing energy to her that was much appreciated in the chaos of the morning. My hair was EXACTLY what I had imagined and it held until I painstakingly brushed it out the next morning. Do yourself a favor and skip on booking the flashy instagram hairstylists who couldn’t actually care less about you and hire a true professional from Fairy Tale.

Alicia & Monica are amazing!! They were so kind and made my bridesmaids and I feel so beautiful and happy! They’re so talented and really listen to what style of makeup and hair you would like. I highly recommend them for any wedding or event! Thank you Alicia and Monica so much!

Fairytale Hair and Makeup is AMAZING! Love the team. :) Tara helped me organize hair and makeup for my 4 bridesmaids and myself on my wedding day. The day before the wedding, the makeup artist called out sick. While this would normally be stressful, Tara assured me that the new makeup artist, Adri, would be excellent. And boy...did Adri surpass all expectations!!! Together, Tara and Adri were truly the dream team. My bridesmaids and I felt like QUEENS. My bridesmaid even mentioned that her hair and makeup that day was better than her OWN personal bridal hair and makeup trial. Also - there was a city-wide power outage the morning of my wedding day. While we found ourselves in a stressful situation, Tara rose to the occasion and called for a backup generator. Thankfully, the electricity ended coming back on after an hour, but I really appreciate her proactiveness to make my day a success...no matter what obstacles get in our way! THANK YOU FAIRYTALE HAIR AND MAKEUP TEAM!! Could not recommend your team more! :)

Fairytale Hair and Makeup was amazing! They were very easy to work with leading up to the day of the wedding. The day of the team who worked my wedding was fantastic! All the girls and I were extremely happy with how our makeup and hair came out. Thank you again for making my day extra special.

Fairytale hair and make up was a great company to work with. Tara, who runs the business, is very organized and has a multitude of artists in her arsenal. She paired me with Alicia for my wedding hair and makeup and I was so incredibly happy with everything! Alicia listened to exactly what I wanted and even worked with me last minute to come up with a new hair look since I got a haircut that was shorter than I expected prior to my wedding day. All details and agreements with Fairytale hair and makeup were straightforward and affordable compared to other similar options with the same high quality level of service. I would definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience with fairytale. I was the MOH in a wedding and our hair and makeup artist basically bailed. Fairytale was a literal fairytale to the rescue and did such a beautiful job. We all felt like ourselves but elevated. Amazing!

I had such a wonderful 5-star experience with Fairytale Hair and Makeup! Tara and Frances really listened to what I envisioned for my wedding look and brought it to life perfectly. They made me feel so comfortable and brought such great, fun energy to the bridal suite before the wedding ceremony. They were very responsive in all communications, professional, ready for anything, and really fun to be around. My mother, sisters, and mother in law also all felt and looked so amazing. They all commented on how they felt really listened to and their own personal style was elevated by the experts at Fairytale Hair and Makeup! We love Tara and Frances! You will be making a GREAT decision by booking with Tara and Frances at Fairytale Hair and Makeup!!

I had the pleasure of working with Alicia and Frances for my wedding. They were punctual, which set a fantastic tone for the day. What truly impressed me was their ability to seamlessly blend individual preferences into a cohesive look for my wedding party. I actually did two trials with Alicia, and was always treated with utmost kindness. Handling thick hair can be challenging, but Alicia allocated sufficient time and expertise, ensuring flawless results. Makeup-wise, the level of coverage Alicia and Frances achieved was exactly what we wanted – a light touch that lasted a remarkable 12 hours. Overall, I highly recommend Fairytale’s services for any special occasion.
