THE BEST PRICED WEDDING BEAUTY SERVICES YOU'LL FIND!As someone who has a lot of hair, and LONG hair, and as someone who doesn't do a lot of makeup (only the basics for work), I loveeeddd my makeup and my hair was STUNNING. Hair type is pin straight and doesn't hold a curl for its life - when I tell you my hair stayed all day for both the trial AND the wedding day, it did! Karen is the best - she has a lovely team of ladies ready to tackle your big day. Here are some notes below. Disclaimer, I work in the wedding industry in Sarasota at a popular venue on the bay, for reference.Cons:- No "schedule" on wedding day. Karen does not operate on schedules, she prefers brides/bridesmaids/Moms/etc. to just be ready to jump in the chair when it opens up. If you're a Type-A bride, this might not be for you!- All text communication: The best way to get in touch with Karen is through text. Slightly nontraditonal, because most wedding vendors reserve communication for email, but it was perfect for me because I get way too many emails anyways, and I'm less likely to lose a text thread than an email.- No last-minute additions or subtractions of services: If a bridesmaid suddenly wants her makeup also done with her hair, or if you need to take a bridesmaid out of services lineup, this is not allowed closer to your wedding day.- Tattoo-coverup is not guaranteed to be great: We selected this service specifically at the request of my MOH, and unfortunately, the makeup artist did not deliver. The coverup job was bright pink and obvious. My MOH ended up just wiping it off. Certainly a bummer because we may have looked otherwise for services.Pros:- BEST price: You will not find a better priced option for hair and makeup on your wedding day. It's outrageous to me that brides' services are $400+ for many artists in the area, and a little less for bridesmaids. You will not be paying that for your bridal services (as of 2026 rates).- Payment through Venmo: if you prefer check or some other way, this may not be for you. This was prime for me because it was super simple!- Karen has NEVER been late or delayed in terms of completing all services at the time needed to be done. Even with my frantic worrying, Karen assured me that all (6) of my bridesmaids, myself, my moms and grandma would all get our hair done as well as (5) of us would get our makeup done all in time before ~1:30pm/2pm. We began at 9:30am and ceremony was at 5:30pm. She was right! We had plenty of time (almost too much time, haha) beforehand!- Full payment is due prior to wedding day. Could also be a con depending on your finances, but this was best for me because nobody had to worry about tipping on wedding day because it was all paid beforehand.- Karen is the best at soothing nerves. I have texted her countless of times about services, timing, pricing, and general worries and she is EXTREMELY reassuring and filled me with confidence. She's also very kind and friendly - keeps conversation going and keeps the vibes great during services!! It's always the worst when it's silent and awkward during a beauty appointment - that will not happen with Karen & her girls!Overall, if you're looking for ease of booking and minimal coordination/planning headaches, go with Karen & her company!!! She is easy going, priced very competitively, go-with-the-flow, and very on top of things. I felt so beautiful even with my thick, impossible-to-curl hair and stress/hormonal acne on my face. I would not have wanted it any other way!!
Beautiful You Makeup and Hair Services was absolutely phenomenal! From the very beginning, their team was professional, attentive, and incredibly talented. They truly went above and beyond to make me feel beautiful, confident, and stress-free on my wedding day.My hair and makeup turned out even better than I could have imagined, and they perfectly brought my vision to life. Not only did everything look stunning, but it also lasted flawlessly throughout the entire day and night. The team was organized, kind, patient, and made getting ready such a fun and memorable experience.I received so many compliments on my hair and makeup, and I couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. If you’re looking for a hair and makeup team for your wedding or special event, I cannot recommend Beautiful You Makeup and Hair Services enough. They played such a special part in making my wedding day perfect, and I am so grateful for their incredible work!!! ☺️🌴🤍
I had my wedding in January and used them for hair and makeup. They did a great job at everything and we finished in a timely manner despite having 11 bridesmaids/groomswomen and moms to do both hair/makeup on! The owner, Karen, was very kind and super responsive during the whole process from the trial hair/makeup to the day of. Unfortunately she got sick during the week of our wedding, but was able to get me an amazing makeup artist replacement who did a superb job. My pictures turned out so good and I am forever thankful for this vendor. They are also very affordable which made it easier to support my entire wedding party! 🙂
I HIGHLY recommend Karen and her girls. We had a fantastic experience with Sammi from this company! From the bride’s trial run to the bride, mother of the bride and bridesmaids. Everyone looked fantastic in their hair and make-up. I couldn’t be happier!
We recently had a destination wedding in Tampa and live out of state so I was unable to have any type of test run for wedding day hair/makeup. Had to trust the reviews and so glad I did. Myself (the bride) and 3 other ladies had hair and makeup done and absolutely loved it! The team came to our hotel room which was even more convenient and the ladies were just lovely. They listened, looked at pictures of examples and did an amazing job! Highly recommend!
Beautiful You Makeup did an amazing job with me and my bridal party. We all looked stunning. Claudia was amazing, she fit in with my bridal party and was one of our group. Claudia was professional and efficient.
10/10, i had a 10am wedding and she was able to come early and on time. My makeup and hair held all day and night. I loved the airbrush so my face wasnt caked and thick, but natural. Hair was exactly what I wanted and looked incredible even in the wind all day for my photos.
Beautiful You did the hair and makeup for myself & two bridesmaids for my 5/31/25 wedding, and I couldn't be happier. The price was excellent, they came out to my house for the trial (which was very convenient), and on the day-of, Karen and her team showed up on-time and finished ahead of schedule.I was nervous about hair & makeup, because I rarely style my hair or wear makeup at all.....but my finished look was simple, elegant, and gorgeous without being overdone. I got rave reviews from my family & guests. And it had lasting power - my look stayed flawless and fresh for the entire day. Karen made this a 10/10 experience for me, and I highly recommend her services.
My makeup and hair lasted alllllll night, and we were out until 3:30 in the morning! The service was amazing!
For my outdoor wedding early May, Claudia did my hair/makeup as well as my mom and mother in laws. Claudia was professional and friendly. Our makeup and hair lasted all night in the outdoor heat and humidity. Everyone made comments on how beautiful everyone looked. So easy to work with and one of the less stressful parts of planning a wedding. Would recommend them to anyone 10/10.
We used Beautiful You for our wedding this past weekend at the Barn at Crescent Lake, and Tammy and Sammi did an amazing job! I did a trial with them back in the fall and they replicated the look on the wedding day with no issues. Tammy helped create a bridal hair style that worked well for my hair type (thin, straight hair), while still meeting my overall expectations and goal for the style. They easily followed inspiration photos from my bridesmaids, and they all looked absolutely beautiful. Hair & makeup was the most nerve-wracking part of wedding planning, but Beautiful You really made it easy and exceeded my expectations. Very reasonably priced as well!! Would 100% recommend for any wedding/event!!!
Karen and her team are top notch! They made myself and all my lovely ladies look incredible 🙂 They were professional, quick and amazing at creating personalized looks for all of us. Would give them 10 stars if I could. Couldn't have imagined a better person to hire for my wedding day!
Claudia came to do the hair and makeup for myself and bridal party (2 of us had makeup, 4 of us had hair done) and we were all very happy with the result. Claudia was on time, she was professional, and she gave us exactly what we asked for! I would highly recommend them for your bridal party or any special occasion. We are from out of town so I was not able to do a trial run, but that didn't matter since she nailed the look I was going for. Thank you to Beautiful You (and Claudia) for making me feel and look beautiful on my wedding day and for being so easy to communicate with! 🤍
Very pleased with her work! She is priceless❤️I look so good! Thank you so much Claudia for a job well done!
Absolutely wonderful! Recommend highly! Appreciate Claudia for her expertise and relaxing demeanor. Made the wedding day less stressful. She’s great!
My wedding was a week ago and I still couldn’t be happier with how not only my makeup turned out but my bridesmaids and my moms as well. Everyone’s makeup looked absolutely flawless, I couldn’t get over how beautiful it all looked. It was pretty hot outside during our ceremony and family pictures and it was definitely hot on the dance floor, by the end of the night I was sure my makeup had melted off but when I finally had a chance to look the mirror when we got to our hotel room I was amazed that my makeup still looked incredible even with my oily skin and sweating on the dance floor. I would definitely recommend Beautiful You Makeup.
Great service -- provided an exceptional hair and make up artist for wedding in less than 24 hrs (booked Friday afternoon for Saturday elopement). Highly satisfied.
They did my daughters hair and make up and the wedding party on October 1. I was the mother of the bride. And they did such wonderful job. I will highly recommend them. Thank you
I used this company for the hair and makeup for myself and my 3 bridesmaids and it was absolutely perfect!! Karen was very prompt with text messages and made it easy to communicate. Our hair and makeup artists were super friendly and punctual! They were very detail oriented and made us all look lovely and feel comfortable!
Ashley was my stylist she did amazing and was super funny and friendly she showed up and did such an amazing job. My makeup and hair made me look and feel so beautiful on my wedding day thank y’all so much beautiful you makeup for the excellent work!
THIS TEAM WAS INCREDIBLE! They made me and my bridal party feel amazing and beautiful for my wedding day. Karen and her team were punctual, kind, fun, AND SO TALENTED. They got all the people done in a timely wedding and we were even ahead of schedule, a dream for a type A bride. Karen always answered all my questions throughout the process and was so amazing. I could not have felt more beautiful. They were truly amazing and I cannot recommend this team enough. Thank you for everything!
We booked this vendor because they provided both hair and makeup services. I got all my bridesmaids' hair done (5), my mother's and bride's hair & makeup. Our stylist was Michelle, and she did a wonderful job. I had a hairpiece, and she incorporated it in the most picture-perfect way. I got compliments all night long, and it stayed for hours. The gratuity wasn't included when I booked (though expected), and I was planning to tip 20% anyways, so not a big deal. Michelle completed everyone with plenty of time to spare, which was also a relief. Thank you again for everything!!
Karen and Tammy did a flawless job on makeup and hair for me and my bridal party. We took pictures outside in Florida heat and my makeup stayed completely beautiful and in tact, as did everyone else. Thank you for making us look so fabulous on my big day!
Very professional stylist/make up artist. Arrived on time. My make up was flawless and lasted for hours. Definitely would recommend her without hesitation!

Karen and Claudia did an outstanding job with my daughter's Quinceanera, her court and their moms. Karen understood our needs in makeup for each of the girls and they turned out amazing. Claudia also created such beautiful hair styles that everyone couldn't be happier. They were on time, reliable, responsible, neat and made us even more beautiful. All of us (10 people) received great compliments and it was because of their professionalism and experience. We recommend them 100%!! Thank you so much ladies, Hair and Makeup amazing!!!!

Our highest recommendations for a wonderful experience. Thank you for everything and making our daughter’s day very special.
I used beautiful you for my destination wedding and everything was fantastic! They arrived on time, were professional and both very skilled at their craft! My wedding party and myself all loved our hair and makeup and being pampered for the day. Having them travel to our rental home made the day go so much more smoothly. They also have the best prices in the area! I would definitely recommend Beautiful You to anyone looking for hair and makeup services.
