Recommendations
I hired Amy to do my hair and make-up before an event. I have worked with so many hair and make-up artists before and NONE have been as good as Amy was. She came early and was ready to go. We finished early which gave me extra prep time for the event. She was like a good friend by the time we were done - so down to earth and personable! And the TALENT! Off the charts. I had given her very vague guidelines and she pulled it off flawlessly. I got 30 or so compliments on my look before the event even started. She is professional, timely with her responses (I had a lot of questions!) and just terrific. I will use her and only her for all my hair and make-up needs going forward. Thank you so much, Amy!
