“I booked Tease to Please HAMU a year and a half out from my wedding. I was assigned Taylan for makeup and Emily S. for hair, and they were both fabulous!
I had my trial about two months out for my bridal portraits, and they nailed it first round! On the wedding day, both artists were so accommodating.
Due to venue restrictions, my bridal party had to get ready offsite. The girls had no problem meeting us at our getting ready location and even packed up to come to the venue with us to finish getting ready.
My whole bridal party loved their looks, and we all felt so beautiful! Our makeup and hair lasted all night! Thank you, Tease to Please, for making us all feel beautiful on such a special day!”

“I wanted to write this review because I have come to find Paige Anderson to be an amazing hair and makeup artist.
After a couple of not-so-good experiences, my fiancé and I did some research for professional hair and makeup artists. We came across Paige and saw she specialized in models and actors. We thought, ‘Why not?’ I met Paige, and immediately her attitude and professionalism were A+.
Over the past month, she did my hair and makeup for my wedding trial and two photoshoots. Her airbrush makeup techniques are excellent. The makeup she applied lasted all day and even maintained while I took numerous photos outside on a hot, sunny day.
The great thing about working with Paige is that she not only makes you look beautiful on the outside but gives you a great sense of beauty and confidence on the inside.
When you’re with Paige, you’re not only with an established stylist but with family or your best friend. Working with her and her team has been so enjoyable. I am very happy I found Paige and look forward to working with her on my wedding as well as for future events!”

“Everyone was so welcoming and considerate the minute I walked in. Gianina Harmon, my makeup artist, made sure I received everything I requested (natural look, eyeshadow color, right lip color, bronzer amount).
She asked for specific things like whether I want tear-proof eyeliner and what my skin type is to make sure I got the right makeup for my face.
She even gave me a skincare treatment before makeup application, which I didn’t expect and was greatly appreciative of.
She also gave me four skincare samples to take home! The entire service is a great value at just $85. The next time I’m getting my makeup done, I’m coming back here. Thank you for a great visit. <3”
