We worked with Ahshia for a special event. She was prompt, responsive, patient, and very helpful. She has a brilliant personality, and her skills and work are exceptional! Our looks were excellent and remained impeccably in place the entire evening. I was thoroughly impressed and would be delighted to engage MBA again. Thank you!

My Mom and I got our makeup done for my brother's wedding. His wife had already contracted MBA for her hair and makeup so, it was a no brainer for us to go with this company. I reached out to Ahshia and got a response right away. Although Ahshia could not do our makeup she set us up with one of her associates named Camille to do our makeup.
I appreciated the process of filling out the survey prior to the service. Let me just say that Camille paid attention to the small details and it made for a flawless makeup application for me and my Mom.
My Mom was a novice at getting makeup and she wanted a natural look, let me just say that Camille nailed it. Camille and Ahshia were friendly, professional, and provided excellent service.
We will most definitely utilize MBA Bridal Hair and Makeup Team for any future events.
