The most FAB Hair & Makeup Team

I was absolutely blown away by the Backstage H&M makeup team. I may have been one of the only brides to not have any inspiration for what I wanted my hair and makeup to look like. They worked with me to narrow down my ideas days of and made me look like a super model, true artists. I've honestly never loved my look more, it was glam but natural - a perfect balance. Also my entire wedding party looked amazing, and everyone said it was the best hair and makeup experience they've ever had. Not to mention we had over 20 people getting services and our schedule was a mess, they were so patient and moved through everyone to keep us on time. Best of all, everyone on the team was so friendly and kind - making the wedding day getting ready moment a memorable experience. Thank you!!!

Dream team!!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! I spent probably 10 hours researching companies off of instagram tags and posts. Being a US bride without the ability to do a trial until the week of was a little nerve racking. I’m so happy I went with my gut and booked this team! Compared to other artists I have been involved with as a bridesmaid this is the most efficient and skilled team I or my friends have had the pleasure of working with! My hair and make up was flawless and lasted all night even through the post reception clubs. Besides the obvious talent the team brings good energy and vibes Alex was a dream to work with and met all of my requests including an extra stylists so we could complete all 8 looks in 4hours. You won’t regret booking this team!

Do not hesitate to hire Backstage H&M!

At the last minute I hired Backstage H&M after a failed hair & makeup trial at my hotel salon (Cancun, MX). The hotel artist did not understand my skin tone nor eyes and it showed in the results. There's an inclination to work with artists of the same cultural background for this reason. But make no mistake, a trained professional is a trained professional and that is Alex. She exceeded all my expectations. Alex took great care in understanding and accentuating everyone's individual features. She was extra sensitive when working with my elderly mother and MIL. She walked us through every step and addressed all of our concerns/requests. Everyone's hair and makeup looked flawless. All of the female guests at my wedding took notice. My bridesmaids and I had a blast hanging out with her and Karen (hair). I am so grateful to her and Karen for making the day go smooth.
