About
Hi, my name is Afra, and I am the owner of Makeup by Afra. I am 34 years old, cheerful by nature, and believe beauty should feel effortless rather than complicated. From a young age, I have had an eye for recognizing beauty in everything, and a desire to enhance it even further. I am a perfectionist at heart, which naturally led me to the world of makeup artistry. I began my professional journey as a Sephora Certified Makeup Artist in 2016 and freelanced for several years out of passion. In 2021, I became NYMUA certified, and that same year, my work was featured at New York Fashion Week. My goal is to provide exceptional, personalized service. Together, we will create a look that enhances your natural beauty, regardless of age, skin type, facial structure, or personal style while ensuring you feel confident, empowered, and truly yourself. My portfolio includes makeup and hair styling for business and branding photography, bridal hair and makeup, and individual clients. No matter the occasion, my approach remains the same: to bring joy through my work. When my clients shine, it genuinely fills my heart.

Afra did my hair and makeup for a wedding reception I was attending, and I had such a great experience with her! She was incredibly talented at looking at my reference photos, understanding what I was going for, and then interpreting them in a way that really suited me and my features. My makeup looked sophisticated and polished while still feeling like me, and I loved how she styled my hair as well. Afra was warm, professional, and checked in with me throughout the process to make sure I was happy with the direction of both my hair and makeup. I really appreciated how collaborative she was while still bringing her own expertise and eye to the final look. Best of all, my hair and makeup stayed perfect throughout the entire evening. I would absolutely recommend her for wedding guest or special event hair and makeup!

Afra did an amazing job for hair and make up for my wedding. I couldn’t say enough about her. Her positivity, kindness and skills bought my hair/make up vision to life. She was a calming presence in all the happy chaos a wedding can bring. I am very thankful I hired her for such an important day. She’s truly the best.
