I engaged Aafra to do the makeup for my mother and mother-in-law on my wedding day, and she did a fantastic job for both of them! She was speedy and effective, and I am very grateful. 😊

I am exceedingly thankful for everything Aafra has done. When I initially enlisted her services to style my daughter's hair and makeup, she candidly and forthrightly stated her level of expertise. Nonetheless, she delivered exceptional work. In addition, she applied makeup on me. Being someone who rarely applies makeup and harbors a phobia of getting poked in the eye with a brush, Aafra ensured that I felt secure and relaxed throughout the entire process. We even shared a few jokes, and her work made me almost teary-eyed. I have never felt more stunning than I did after she finished. Throughout the entire event, I received numerous compliments on my makeup.

From the moment I contacted Afra, she remained responsive until my appointment. Her work on both my and my sister's hair and makeup for a NYE occasion was fantastic, and we were extremely happy with the results. I highly recommend Afra without hesitation.

When I went out of town to attend a wedding, I wanted to have my hair and makeup done in a way that would last all day. Much to my delight, Afra did an amazing job! She clearly followed the directions I gave her, and in addition, her demeanor was both kind and professional. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. In fact, I received many compliments throughout the day on how I looked. It is safe to say that I would give Afra ten stars if I could!

Working with Afra was an absolute dream! She truly went above and beyond to ensure that my special day was perfect. From making sure that I was comfortable to providing me with all the necessary amenities, Afra ensured that no detail was overlooked. Her work on my hair and makeup for my wedding was flawless and I couldn't be happier with the results. She even came up with the brilliant idea of incorporating live flowers into my hairstyle, which added a special touch to my look. It was the perfect amalgamation of natural and glam makeup. I am definitely going to work with her for future events and recommend her to everyone. Keep an eye out for pictures!
