Alba was the absolutely the best person to do my hair for elopement day (and will likely be yours too!). Not only was she so responsive, flexible, professional, and highly skilled— Alba is so sweet, sincere, fun and made me feel extra special and beautiful on our special day! My hair was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. She perfectly executed the vision I had. I truly hope our paths cross again for our big day next year!

I was planning a photoshoot in NYC. Being out of state, I was wondering how to do my hair and makeup the morning of the shoot. I lucked out by finding Alba on Thumbtack. She was right on time, extremely friendly while being very professional and did an amazing job for me. I cannot thank her enough. If I ever need this service again, she will be my go to person. Thank you!!

Alba did my makeup and hair for a wedding I was attending. She did an amazing job with my hair and makeup. I was super happy with the results. She was very polite, friendly and listened to how I wanted everything done. I’m very happy with the experience and I’ll definitely reach out to her for future events. I highly recommend booking her.

We were visiting New York as a family and had planned a fancy night out- Alba not only made every member of family look and feel beautiful but she was an absolute delight to work with and our time with her quickly became the highlight of our entire trip!! We have already agreed that we need to fly her out to California for any future events or weddings we have- no other makeup artist will ever compare!!! Thank you so much for making our trip magical. If you are looking for the best of the best- look no further; Alba is the pro you need to choose!!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing reflects the quality of products, professional experience, and personalized service I provide. I offer customized quotes based on the services requested, location, and group size. Bridal parties of 3 or more qualify for special group pricing. Additional fees may apply for early morning start times, travel outside my service area, or hair extension styling. A deposit is required to secure the date.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I start by learning about my client’s vision, event details, and personal style. I encourage clients to share inspiration photos so I can understand exactly what they’re looking for. For brides, I highly recommend a trial where we can refine every detail of the hair and makeup look. Once everything is finalized, I create a personalized beauty plan to ensure a smooth, stress-free experience on the day of the event. My goal is always to make my clients feel beautiful, confident, and completely themselves.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a licensed cosmetologist and a certified makeup artist with professional training from New York Makeup Academy. Over the past 8 years, I have specialized in bridal beauty, special events, fashion, and editorial makeup. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients and skin tones, as well as participate in New York Fashion Week. I have also worked with Maybelline, creating makeup looks for advertising campaigns and promotional content. I am passionate about continuing my education and staying current with the latest beauty trends, techniques, and products to provide exceptional service and a personalized experience for every client.
