I was starting to look into hair and make-up companies in March of 2020, and then the world shut down from the covid pandemic... Some companies I had been eyeing seemed to have given up during the shut down, however I saw that Brittany was working her butt off, staying positive, and adapting to what was going on in the world. I had reached out to several companies. To my surprise Brittany, the face/ceo of the company, called me directly to speak to me and answer all my questions, and shared insight on what was going on with other weddings. The other companies I had conversed over email, with who knows who, of the company. It was just so much more personable with Brittany. Though Beautini was a bit more than what I budgeted, I had confidence in Beautini's team to make me look and feel my best on my wedding day, without the stress. Brittany assured me that they would be as flexible as they could be if we had to make changes or reschedule our wedding. She also assured that her makeup artist would know how to apply makeup on asian features, which was a concern of mine. Luckily, we did not have to reschedule, and went through with a small wedding on Nov 28, 2020. We had to bump our wedding to be earlier in the day to keep everything outdoors, which meant the beauty team had to arrive at the crack of dawn! All artists arrived on time, masked, washed their hands, set up their sanitized tools/makeup and got to work, they were all professional and in good spirits; adapting to the tight space in my 1 Hotel suite. I had Aneta for makeup and Tracina for hair, who I had met during my trial, and they were so lovely to work with and reflected the changes that I asked for on my wedding day. I also had Taren and Selena for hair and make-up for my bridesmaids. Our makeup and hair stayed perfect the entire day, even through the windy fall weather along the water. There was a little mix-up with how many artists I was expecting when coordinating/scheduling the day of events, but it was all sorted out. If it comes down to planning our wedding reception (which I had to cancel) I would love to work with Beautini's team again! They were worth the cost. We did it safely, and no one got sick! Thanks Beautini! read more

I booked Beautini to do the hair for a few women attending my wedding, including myself. I reached out pretty last minute, but they were able to fit me in to their schedule. Throughout the planning process they were extremely responsive, clear, and professional. If you've planned an event before, you know how helpful this is! My wedding was in the early afternoon, so my stylist, Shei, had to show up very early. But she was so kind and cheery that you would never have known how early it was. She was a pleasure to work with, and she did an amazing job with everyone's hair! read more

Update: I emailed and sent a direct message to the Founder/CEO Brittany Lo (since her page is in the Beautini Instagram bio). She did reply to me via email the next day which I appreciated and I replied back to hers. I welcomed the opportunity to speak more about my experience however I haven't heard from her. I didn't understand how her response was so prompt before but wasn't after my response. I went onto Instagram to only find out that she blocked me. As the Founder/CEO (who I didn't harass, curse out, or use any derogatory words towards her) to block someone after a complaint especially after stating in her email that "I would have loved to show you a true beautini experience as I would never want you to walk away with a bad taste in your mouth" is shocking, disheartening, and clearly was written with no real follow up. And yes the CEO blocked me because I asked someone else to see if they can click her name under the Beautini bio (which I cannot) and see if they can see the posts (which I cannot). I cannot even click on her website. This action in itself shows me 2 things: 1: The Founder/CEO does not like when a customer is truly honest about services rendered/lack of services by her employees and 2. Beautini is not about fixing the problem (in my case this is true) and would rather say they're sorry and not show they're sorry. Of course not everyone's experience is the same and I do wish Beautini's future customers a better experience than mine (whether at a bridal event or on the wedding day itself.) read more

Beautini - This is proof to show I really was blocked - Makeup Artists Near Me - New York, New York

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Beautini for our wedding at Liberty Warehouse this past May! Kelsi, Lynn, Carlie, Jackie and the full Beautini team were very easy to work with. Before the wedding they had me in for a trial to try different hair and make-up styles so that I would feel comfortable with the look on the day of. They then came in person on the day of the wedding to do hair and make-up for me, my 5 bridesmaids and our 2 mothers. It was so much fun! I am someone who is much less familiar with getting my hair and make-up done and the Beautini team walked me through the process and were very responsive to requests to lighten and adjust the make-up level so that I felt comfortable. In the end, I looked incredibly glamorous, while still looking and feeling like me. My hair and make-up lasted all day and night even as I danced my heart out. Thank you Beautini team for making me and my wedding party feel and look glamorous on the day of my wedding!! read more

Beautini - Makeup Artists Near Me - New York, New York

See all

Mediocre makeup services. Stuck up owner. Fake smiles, but my face didn't look like I wanted for the price I paid. Not satisfied at all!!! They go after rich white ladies, or Asian... because the owner is asian and she won't even bother making you feel good unless you are booking $$$ or she somehow likes you. I dont need fake smiles and small talk, just do good makeup, which didn't happen. I would suggest you spend your money on more genuine people... this company doesn't deserve it. read more

Ask for Jackie (hair) and Taylor (makeup)! Dream team!!! Honestly had the best experience working with Beautini. Kelsi will become your new favorite person. She is so organized and on top of everything. We had a quite a large group of girls to get ready and we finished EARLY. Nothing was too much for them. They were extremely flexible and accommodating. Would highly recommend them to anyone! read more

The Beautini team was AMAZING!! I am so, so grateful that my wedding planner (DreamMakers NY) connected me to them. From start to finish they were simply the best. Brittany was super helpful leading up to the big day and made me feel confident that they had everything under control. My wedding day team, Izzy and Bailey, were nothing short of amazing. My hair and makeup went above my wildest expectations and they made me look like an actual princess! I am still getting so many compliments on how gorgeous me and my bridesmaids looked. Their whole team takes special care to listen to exactly what you want, and for me, that was a really natural look. Izzy and Bailey made my perfect vision come to life and I was brought to tears by how incredible my hair and makeup looked. Would recommend Beautini 1000x times over - thanks for everything! Xo read more

Beautini was overall extremely professional, fun and very easy to work with. I selected Beautini for makep and hair for my recent wedding. Everything from the initial trial to execution went flawlessly. I would highly recommend Beautini to anyone who is looking for exceptional service. Thank you Brittany and the entire team for your role in making my day perfect! read more

I booked Beautini for a bachelorette party and all of the girls LOVED their looks. To be completely honest, I never like my hair or makeup when I get it professionally done. I've made hundreds of attempts over the years, and there's only been literally one makeup person who I have been satisfied with and never had a hairstyle that I haven't had to redo. And with beautini ... I LOVED MY LOOK. Both hair and makeup. So please know that when I say that, it's coming from a place of dissatisfaction 99.9% of the time, lol! They have some amazing stylists on their team and they're officially my new go-to for beauty needs! read more

Beautini is the BEST! Kathy and Jackie (our main hair and makeup stylists) were serious rockstars and everyone else we worked with were so nice and great! Brittany (the owner) and Kelsi (the coordination/planning/overall get things done person) made the process so so easy and amazing. The day of was so chill and fun with Beautini on board, and they absolutely got my vibe of - let's be beautiful but maybe not crazy, fake-looking overly made up dolls (which seems to be a fairly common aesthetic in the wedding industry). All in all, ten out of ten would recommend. Do yourself a favor and book with Beautini! read more

My sister hired Beautini to do the hair & makeup for herself, the bridal party and mothers of the bride & groom for her wedding. It seemed promising at first but they arrived to the bridal suite without chairs or lights, even though they previously confirmed they would have all of those things with them. The two girls who did the bride's hair and makeup were decent but the other two were pretty terrible. Unfortunately I was scheduled for both of them. I showed the woman who did my hair a photo of what I wanted (a simple low bun with a French braid on one side) and she didn't even try to recreate it. She did a completely different type of braid and I eventually had to ask her to redo it. In all the photos, there are baby hairs sticking out underneath so it looked like a complete mess. The woman who did my makeup had the chair facing away from the window and did a horrible job blending my eyeshadow. I also found out later that the bride had asked them to apply false lashes to all of us and this woman didn't give me any. Aside from the fact that two of the women were not as skilled as the others, they also were assigned a specific number of people to do. Once they were done, they packed up their stuff and just sat there while two more girls were waiting to get their hair done by the other hair stylist. We were told that she couldn't have help because they each get paid by the number of people they style. That's great for them but we hired Beautini as a company, not these girls individually. The one woman took so much time to finish that our photos were delayed and we were a half hour late to the wedding ceremony. This was COMPLETELY unprofessional. We hired this company to perform a service - you would think that they would throw all hands on deck to ensure that they finish on time! Overall, very poor job and I do not recommend. Also, if you do decide to go with Beautini, do NOT rent the bathrobes to get ready in. I'm not sure why my sister did this in the first place but they all smelled like BO. They were gross but we didn't have any other options to take photos in so we were all forced to put them on. read more

If you are looking for hair or makeup services I highly recommend Beautini! Janais and Yev were my hair and makeup artists, they made me and my bridesmaids feel so glamorous. Kelsi was also on top of every detail and so quick to respond to any questions. From start to finish the entire Beautini team was very professional and accommodating, even when I wanted to come in for a second trial to change my look. Working with Beautini was a dream! read more

Amazing through and through! I used Beautini for our hair stylists for my wedding and everything was absolutely perfect! From the communication, planning, pricing, working with my awesome stylist Mailey and the rest of the Beautini team - the experience was easy, pleasant and all hair styles were exactly what each person requested. I especially love a lot of texture on top (as opposed to a helmet of hairspray) and Mailey achieved the exact look I was going for. My Mom, Mother-in-Law and Bridesmaids all were in love with their looks. Thank you so much to Beautini - amazing experience from beginning to end! read more

Look no further, you have just found the most talented team of hair and makeup professionals. Beautini did my wedding in Boston at The Fairmont and I could not have been happier! Brittany, CEO and Founder of Beautini, is a class act who knows how to handle everything. I had a large wedding party, and Brittany and her team made the day seamless - not to mention we all left feeling like celebrities! Beautini comes to you and transforms whatever your space into an all-out beauty bar. They did a variety of updos, blowouts, and makeup looks for my bridal party and everyone was thrilled with the end result. Both my mom and MIL also had their hair and makeup done, and were so pleased. Beautini handled every type of special request (e.g., extensions, light/heavy makeup, schedule changes). Oh, and huge thank you to Brittany, who so kindly jumped in to do my bustle and touch-ups after the ceremony...a CEO who cares so much about her clients! I was so thrilled with how Beautini made me look and feel, that I had them do hair/makeup for my rehearsal dinner as well. I highly recommend brides doing this, the price is right and you start your events feeling like a queen. Thank you, thank you Brittany and Beautini squad. Love you al!! XO Catherine read more

I did make up and hair trial before my wedding. My husband and I didn't like at all. And it looked horrible on the pictures. They tried to make changes but were not successful. When I told the hair stylist that I didn't like what she did with my hair, instead of trying to listen and understand, she got offended. I think it was very unprofessional. They charged me $250 for this trial that was so awful that when my friends saw me, they were shocked that I paid for it and it was done by "professionals". I wouldn't recommend them although the owner is really nice person. read more

I LOVED working with Beautini! Their studio where they do the trials are so cute (and they have champagne!). They even did a second trial with me to make sure I was in love with my wedding hair. The day of the wedding they were on time, very organized, and managed the time perfectly. I looked stunning as did my mother, my mother-in-law, and my bridesmaids! I've never seen anyone do makeup as naturally beautiful as Brittany. And they were super fun to be with and chat with on my wedding day. I could not have picked a better hair and makeup stylist for the wedding! read more

Incredibly rude. Met these ppl at a bridal show, so stand offish. Excuse me that my ethnic minority money isn't good enough for you. Plus they weren't even cute, looked like they were so tired and lethargic. not sure why they were advertising make up and hair and anything wedding related read more

I went with Beautini to provide hair and makeup for myself, five bridesmaids, and two moms on my wedding day. From the start the whole team was incredibly wonderful. I did a hair and makeup trial with them in February, and Brittany provided a second hair trial to me free of charge when the first one went awry. On the wedding day itself we had four stylists, and they were unbelievable. Each girl picked their own hairstyle and makeup look, and the Beautini team knocked it out of the park. They were so efficient that was actually finished early, which is unheard of. Everyone absolutely raved about their hair and makeup, and the looks stayed put all night. All of the stylists were kind, professional, and accommodating. Special thanks to Janais (hair) and Rebecca (makeup) who were my artists that day. I could not have been happier with Beautini's services! read more

Brittany did a fabulous job leading a makeup class for a few of my friends and me! It was great to learn different makeup techniques with the makeup that I use everyday and also hear suggestions for other types of makeup. Who knew that what I already had could be so much more useful! It was an extremely hands on, one-on-one class with feedback based on everyone's different skin tones and eye colors. She taught us easy techniques that could be used everyday-- not just for special occasions. read more

Thank you Brittany and staff for making my daughter's wedding day get off to a great start! We had two stylists for five of us come and glamorize us. They were on time and very friendly and efficient. read more

Brittany and her team at Beautini were so wonderful to work with! My hair and make-up looks were admittedly the one thing that I obsessed over. The problem was, the hair I had in mind didn't go with the dress that I loved and bought, and I had never had my make-up professionally done and therefore had no idea what I was asking for. Brittany was incredibly understanding and helped me book my hair and make-up trial, and then another trial when I still wasn't completely sure and changed basically the entire look. She also didn't make me feel silly for being so indecisive, which was a blessing. She worked with my wedding coordinator to make sure the timing of the day was right and was quick to respond to any questions or concerns that I had. Mailey helped me come up with a hair style that accentuated the dress but which I also felt comfortable in and was also really fun to spend such a big day with, and Sandy made sure the entire wedding party looked stunning. In the grand scheme of things, you spend a large part of your wedding day with your hair and make-up team, and you want to make sure that you feel comfortable and at ease with them. I couldn't have asked for a better team with Beautini and cannot recommend them enough! read more

My hair and makeup from Beautini was better than I could have ever imagined!! The stylists were incredible and so so nice. I would recommend Beautini to even the pickiest brides. I wouldn't have changed a thing about my entire experience with them! read more

I'm SO SO SO happy I chose Beautini for my hair and makeup for my wedding day! My experience with Beautini was positive from the start - my emails were always promptly answered and everyone I spoke to was so easy, sweet, and pleasant to talk to (Kelsi you are an angel!!!). When I started my search for hair and makeup I was looking at hair and makeup artists as separate vendors - but once I found Beautini and decided to work with them, I'm so happy I did. Having a one-stop shop for hair & makeup for myself, my 9 bridesmaids, my mom, and my grandma made me feel so much more organized and they took all the stress out of having to schedule & worry about two different (but equally important) vendors. That morning, (despite it being sometime around 6 am), Carly, Jackie, Lynn and Allison arrived right on time, pleasant, and ready to set up and get going. Having them there felt like an extension of my friends - we were all listening to music, chatting & hanging out while others got their hair and makeup done. While all four of the girls did an INCREDIBLE job on everyone, Carly did my makeup and Jackie did my hair and I couldn't have been happier - they hit my vision right on the head and took their time to really listen to what I was looking for; it was obvious that they really take pride in their work and wanted me to be totally happy and comfortable with how I looked. As a girl who doesn't wear much makeup, Carly took her time and stopped to check in with me as we went along to ensure I was comfortable with the direction my look was going in, and all my friends stood around me raving as Jackie did my hair! I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out - they came as a team with a schedule that was timely and stress-free (4 girls to do 12 girls hair + makeup!) and knew how to work well together. They finished on time (and with time for touchups) before we had to leave for the church - everyone looked gorgeous and most importantly looked natural and like themselves. Would 10000% recommend Beautini to every bride!!!!!!! read more

Brittany and her team were incredible. Brittany was so responsive leading up to the wedding and her and Rita made sure I left the trial feeling confident in what they had done. They provided great advice and re-did anything I didn't love at first. They traveled nearly 4 hours out of the city to cover my wedding upstate. They were so calm the morning of and kept us all on schedule. I was afraid of the makeup running down my face due to all the emotions of the day but everything stayed put! All the bridesmaids looked beautiful and very natural. I would highly recommend Beautini. They are incredibly sweet, great to be around, and amazing at what they do! read more

Working with Brittany at Beautini and her team was such a pleasure right from the beginning. I am a wedding planner, but I also needed to have my own hair and make-up done for my daughter's bat mitzvah. Since I am in the business, I've worked with a lot of hair and make-up professionals, but Beautini is by far the most organized, talented, accommodating and friendly. The last thing you want to worry about on your special day is hair and make-up arriving late, and the Beautini team are always on time and ready to begin. They also did hair and make-up for my 13-year-old daughter, and they made her feel so comfortable, and treated her like a princess. I've added Beautini to the number one spot on my vendor list, and they should definitely be your number choice for your wedding! - Kimberly Pilson - The Wedding Sitter read more

I took a Beautini make up class with some friends and had an amazing experience! Brittany lead the class and worked with each and every one of us to make sure we understood how to apply the make up. Her enthusiastic and amicable personality made everyone excited to be there. The techniques that Brittany taught were very useful for both day and nightlife. I left the make up class feeling so beautiful and I now use the techniques that Brittany taught me every morning! read more

THE. BEST. From my trial to the wedding day, Beautini did absolutely everything possible to make sure my every request was met and no small question was left unanswered. Ten bridesmaids plus me, mothers, and grandmothers were no small task!! The team managed to customize every look so that we all left for the wedding feeling and looking beautiful. It was a very hot day (mid 90s).. and after a day out in the sun (reception was almost exclusively outdoors), dancing till we were drenched in sweat, and a few happy tears, my make up looked impeccable!! I couldn't believe it.. ! I looked the same at 3am as I had when they glam'd me up at 11am. I would suggest Beautini to any bride I love. So glad they were part of our special day. read more

I first met Brittany and Irene at a wedding expo in the city. I stopped by their booth and Irene did my makeup. She did it so fast and it looked so awesome. The girls were so sweet and I liked the idea of having hair and makeup as one vendor. I also liked the concept of the robes and the champagne. It just seemed so girly and cool to have Beautini be a part of my wedding. I booked Beautini almost a year before my wedding, yet I kept in touch with Brittany the whole time. I went for my first trial with Irene and Natasha. They did a fantastic job and I knew I would be all set for my wedding day. Beautini came all the way out to Woodbury, Long Island to a hotel to do hair and makeup. The girls were on time and stayed as long as needed to finish. We had 8 girls all get their hair and makeup and each was so happy after it was done. I've never felt so beautiful In my whole life as on my wedding day and it was all because of Beautini :) read more
