Ayari's Brides - airbrush makeup, hair styling, and hair extensions

Worked with Ayari/Sabrina for my wedding hair/makeup, they did an an amazing job at giving me the exact look I wanted. They are approachable and passionate about their jobs. They were always available when I had any questions, I got a lot of compliments for my makeup/hair. highly recommended

Erica and Sabrina did hair for me, four of my bridesmaids and my mom for my wedding a few weeks back and all looked beautiful!

I was extremely indecisive towards the end and Erica had so much patience no matter how many times I changed my mind or if I sent a gazillion pictures - she even talked me off the ledge when I considered extensions (which I don't need since I have enough hair for two people). Ultimately she did a gorgeous down/side wept hairstyle which was exactly what I wanted and I still get so many compliments on my hair! The entire bridal party looked beautiful too including my mom who looked gorgeous :)

I would definitely recommend Ayari brides!

I loved Ayari Brides- They were easy to book, professional, and friendly. I was able to convey the look of makeup application I wanted and we scheduled a trial run accordingly. Ayari Brides made adjustments to ensure I had the perfect face on my wedding day. My makeup artist showed up on time and was responsive to emails, texts, and phone calls. I loved the look I had on my wedding day and received glowing compliments on it. I was really pleased and would highly recommend them to my friends.

I got married on January 5, 2013 and hired Ayari’s makeover, Inc for my makeup and hair. It was the best decision I ever made!!!! I absolutely loved the way Ayari did my makeup and how Erica did my hair! I also loved how Bianca did the makeup on my bridesmaids. The morning of my wedding day they came with a whole hair and makeup team! They made each of my 6 bridesmaids and mother look so beautiful within four hours! They were very professional and were really working with the needs of myself and my bridesmaids. They did such a amazing job from the shades we wanted to the best light-weight lashes I ever wore. I am definitely recommending them to everyone I know and would hire them again in a heartbeat!!!

"Getting pampered inside the Mobile Beauty Studio was a unique and convenient experience on my special day. The Mobile Studio picked us up and transported me and my bridesmaid to our location for wedding photos. Erica and Ayari from Ayari’s Brides did amazing work on our hair and makeup inside the vehicle, and surprisingly we were treated with a mimosa and wine bottle. I truly felt like a pampered bride.” ~Daiana Ravelo

I had Sabrina do hair for myself and my bridesmaids and Kristin for makeup for myself and 2 of my bridesmaids. Both were absolutely fantastic to work with and made sure we all got the hair & makeup style we wanted. My bridesmaids and I had a great time getting ready, even with a very early start time. Sabrina worked her magic on my hair and Kristin is amazing at doing makeup - both stayed put through many hours of dancing! And not to mention my bridesmaids all looked stunning. A huge thank you to Ayari's Brides, and esp. Sabrina and Kristin, for helping to make my wedding day more fun and amazing than I could have imagined!

I am so happy I discovered Ayari’s Brides for my wedding day hair and make-up! I only have positive things to say about all the professionals who helped us and the experience as a whole. Ayari’s prices are competitive for being in NYC, yet the services are top tier.

On my wedding day, Erica did my hair, as well as the hair for my 4 bridesmaids and mother. She managed to create 6 unique styles that flattered each woman. She came entirely prepared, not just with her equipment, but also with ideas for us, based on photos we had sent her. All of Erica's up-dos turned out spectacular and lasted throughout the whole event. The girls received complements all night long. I kept my hair mostly down and loosely pulled back with curls. I thought this would be risky; the hairstyle probably would look great in the beginning of the day, but slowly evolve into a hot mess. The latter never happened. The “loose” curls held all night long, in spite of intense dancing and an after party. Erica knows her stuff.

We also had the opportunity to work with more professionals from Ayari’s Brides when we took additional wedding photos with LeMetric's Mobile Studio. Aside from owning her own business, Ayari is a highly skilled make-up artist. She knows exactly what look will work best on each woman’s face, but is still receptive to what they envision for themselves. Bianca (from LeMetric) is another talented make-up artist who worked with my bridesmaids; they were all really excited about how their make-up turned out. Sabrina worked wonders with our hair and would settle for nothing less than perfection.

Conclusion: You and your wedding party will definitely be in good hands with anyone from Ayari’s Brides.

They have an awesome team and are extremely flexible. They were professional at all times and the quality of their work was great. They arrived on time and stuck to the schedule we planned out. I was a happy bride and received many compliments.

Ayari’s Bride did my hair/makeup as well as my wedding party’s hair and make up for my September wedding. I could not have asked for a better team. They were on time, and willing to do whatever to make us happy. My wedding party was very large and they were able to stick to the schedule and have everyone done on time, without compromising their look. The team was also able to work together with little explanation to create a beautiful and cohesive look for all of my bridesmaids. Everyone looked amazing!

Jessie and Erica did my hair and makeup and I to quote some of my guests, I looked “breathtaking”. I have to thank Jessie and Erica for that. They did a wonderful job at giving me the exact look I was looking of without much direction. I was complemented the entire night in how natural my makeup looked and how great my hair looked. I highly recommend them for any special event. You will not be disappointed.

Ayari's Brides were fabulous! Erica and Sabrina did hair me, several bridesmaids, and MOB and MOG. Both were flexible, great with details, and everyone was very pleased with the final look. Hair was finished by about 2pm, and lasted perfectly during outdoor photos and well into the wedding and reception (for about 12 hrs).

Very reasonably priced, too. I would highly recommend them!!

Everything was great. Ayari's Brides are very professional and are flexible with everything you need. Sabrina and Kristina did my hair and makeup, and they really listen to what you want and make you look gorgeous at the end. I was so happy with thier work and I would definately recommend them to any bride. I had many compliments on the work you did! Thank you Ayari's Brides for everything.

The trial was well run, they took lots of notes and came to my house. That was very convenient and helpful since I was coming from out of town. I recommend that the day of schedule be closely monitored and followed up with. I put together the schedule and it was changed close to the day of. Also, definitely plan for extra buffer time and they will use it. Overall the outcome of hair and makeup was very good and they were very patient, even with a difficult mother. They took feedback well and came prepared with all necessary equipment and colors.

I am so happy that I chose Ayari 's Brides to do my hair and makeup for my wedding. For New York City, their Hair/Makeup packages are a great value.

On my wedding day I had Erica for my hair and Kristin do my makeup. Both were excellent and I highly recommend them.

Erica has amazing positive energy and was so flexible. When she came for my trial, it was a mere week before the wedding and I had no idea what I wanted my hair to look like. I gave her some vague ideas and she ran with it to give me an unexpected, modern elegant look that I would never have picked myself. She adjusted everything to my liking and really listened to my concerns. I couldn't wait to work with her on the wedding day.

When my big day came, she arrived bursting with excitement that was contagious. All my bridesmaids looked beautiful, young and glamourous and their hair was done exactly as they envisioned. My hair was perfect and for the most part, stayed in place even though I danced like a maniac and it was 100 degrees and humid.

Kristin did my makeup and took the time to ask me questions about the look that I wanted to achieve. When she did my trial, I initially thought the look was too severe and too contoured. Kristin took my feedback and softened my look on the actual day. I felt glowing in my makeup, and I still felt like myself. What impressed me most was that my makeup did not budge even though I bawled my eyes out and sweat profusely throughout the day. Thank you Kristin!

On top of it all, Erica and Kristin were extremely professional and allowed me to relax on my special day. Ayari herself is very responsive and flexible as well. I highly recommend working with Ayari's Brides. It was a great experience.

Ayari, and her team were great! I showed them pictures and explained to them what I wanted to have done for my hair and makeup on the day of my wedding. They knew exactly how do it! They also did a great job with the makeup for the MOH and bridesmaids. The flower girl hair came out really cute!!! I would definitly recommed Ayari

Tamara and Erica worked on my mother, my sister and me on my wedding day and I have to say i am extremely pleased with their work on all three of us! Even though we were behind schedule, the quality of their work was not affected by the time limit. Both were extremely attentive in the look your going for and during trials made any changes requested so they nail your look. Both very sweet down to earth girls so I felt very comfortable with them, which for me is a big plus when working with vendors. Their prices are very reasonable especially since they come to your location and Ayari is always overlooking the entire process from beginning to end to ensure your satisfaction. if you have any questions she gets back to you very quickly which was great. I would definitely recommend their services, you wont be disappointed!

Erica and Kristine from Ayari's team were fabulous. They worked really well together, doing hair and makeup simultaneously and really made my group and I feel great. Everyone from my teen nieces to my matron of honor to my mom looked gorgeous and our makeup stayed ALL NIGHT LONG!
The girls are super personable and make it fun to sit still for an hour or so. Erica even noticed I had lightened my hair from my trial. I scheduled my trial the day of my Bridal Shower and while we tested the style I wanted she pinned my hair up so that my guests wouldn't actually see my wedding hair. Kristine gave me a softer lip so my makeup was also different from the look I wanted for the big day.
Even though Ayari herself wasn't there she made me feel very secure in her team's hands. She had great packages that worked within my budget and her girls made sure I looked and felt my best.
From my trial to the day of everyone just kept saying how beautiful I looked. My groom loved that it didn't look like I had a ton of makeup on and just looked like a glamorous version of myself, which was exactely what I wanted.
Thank you Ayari, Erica and Kristine - you were all wonderful.

Makeup looked gorgeous on entire bridal party! I've already seen some photos that were taken and the makeup looks great. I was very happy and will definitely recommend.

Ayari was my life saver! My makeup person cancelled, I called her she was professional kept me calm and did a wonderful job! My makeup was flawless and i still looked like myself, I personally dont like a lot of makeup, I didn't even tell her and she applied the makeup beautifully! I would recommend her to anyone, I consider her my makeup fairy godmother!!!! :-). If you decide to book her, I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Ayari, thank you for your wonderful work! Good luck in all you do! Sincerely, Liz

Ayari Brides provided a fantastic service and experience for me on my wedding day this past April 20, 2012. Jessie was my makeup artist and Erica was my hair stylist. They made me look super glamorous and my make-up stayed on all night. The whole team was punctual, professional, tailored to the different tastes of the various members of the bridal party, and above all provided exceptional service. In addition, I must say that Ayari Brides was a very accommodating vendor. I was supposed to get originally married on June 11, 2011. Due to a death in the family, I had to cancel my wedding two weeks before the date. I must say that was a very difficult and emotional time for me and along with this I had to cancel everything I had planned in 1 year. Ayari Brides was very understanding and returned me back my money at a moment's notice. This was very thoughtful and they made that experience very seamless for me. Given that and the fact that I loved my makeup trial, I decided to keep Ayari Brides as my vendor for my wedding. I must say they lived up to my very high expectations and my need for very specific and timely details. Thank you Ayari Brides for making me feel beautiful and above all for being such a great vendor to work with. Brides I strongly recommend that you use Ayari Brides for your upcoming wedding. You won't be disappointed!

I like these girls so much- I would love to give them a higher rating! They do a FANTASTIC job with hair and makeup. I had Kristin for makeup, Erica for hair, and they were both charming. Unfortunately, they were the only vendors that made our wedding day stressful because they were late, and then they just took so long to finish us all up (they did my mom, myself, my stepmother, and my sister-in-law). Because we did photos before the ceremony, their delay resulted in a delay in the photos, which resulted in a delay in the rehearsal ceremony. It all of course ended up being fine, but it was a bit stressful to have to wait on them to finish. Had there been an extra makeup artist there, there would have been no problem, but unfortunately, Ayari and her other artists were out of town for another wedding. So be it! But bottom line, everything worked out, and we all felt beautiful. I would absolutely recommend these ladies- they are wonderful. Just be mindful that they need time, and you need time for them.

Ayari was AMAZING!!! I just got married in Puerto Rico and I was afraid my makeup was going to fade or sweat off. I did not one bit! Ayari gave me all the attention that I needed and more. It was as if she was on call ready to go if I needed anything to ensure that I was happy on my special day! Ayari even woke up very early the next day to do my trash the dress photoshoot makeup and she came flying when she heard I was stressed about my makeup. In 5 minutes she was in my room working on my face :-) Ayari did such an amazing job not only on me but my bridesmaids and my mother and mother of the groom. Everyone looked so elegant :-) I would definitely recommend Ayari for Makeup and Hair services!!!!

She was AWESOME!!!!.... My makeup was FLAWLESS....

I really took too long to write this review, but let me just say that Ayari and her hair stylist Candy were so great with me. I didn't expect to be such a Bridezilla the day of my wedding but it was such an emotional, crazy morning....from tearing off my tiara to crying twice after I had my make up done, but Ayari and Candy were so lovely and professional. Ayari reapplied my makeup twice and Candy fixed my tiara and hair.
I am so grateful that they were so wonderful with me that day and weren't annoyed by my erratic behavior. Ayari is extremely talented and used colors that worked really well with my complexion (I would follow her suggestions if she offers advice on what colors work best / will look nice in pictures) and Candy is amazing also she really cares about how her brides feel and wants them to be happy, she did such a great job with my hair. I got many compliments on my hair and makeup, but I was even more impressed when I saw my proofs and saw how great my hair and makeup looked.
I would highly recommend them, they were on time and very nice and professional. I am so happy I booked them. Thanks ladies!

I was referred to Ayari and her team by a friend and couldn’t be happier with my selection. Jessica did my bridal makeup & as per my request she kept my look very natural. She also worked on my mom, and my Bridal Party. They all looked flawless the day of!
Erica worked on my Bridal party’s hair and they were very happy with the results. The makeup & hair lasted throughout the entire event. Throughout the planning process they were very responsive & professional. They were very accommodating and came on time with a wide assortment of makeup and beauty supplies. They are both delightful ladies who remained cool even when we had some last minute natural Disasters! Hurricane Irene delayed my wedding by one day but thankfully Ayari's Brides was very accommodating and understanding and helped make my day even better than imagined!
I would highly recommend them.
Sincerely,
One happy Bride- Marcie Arguello

Candy from Ayari's Brides did my makeup for my wedding in August. I originally requested Ayari but I was getting married a day before Hurricane Irene which made it difficult for Ayari to come so she sent Candy as a replacement. Candy was punctual and very sweet. The problem that I had with the service is that I paid for airbrush makeup but without my knowledge Candy applied 3D makeup. I was a little disappointed since 3D makeup was not something I requested and I didn't have time to ask her to rinse it off and apply the correct kind. Also, when it was time to apply my eyelashes Candy forgot the eyelash glue. Luckily my hair artist was there and loaned her glue, but that was a little disappointing as well. After the application of my makeup I was overall satisfied thanks.

So happy with my results! Ayari was super helpful in arranging everything and answering my last minute questions. Erica was my hair stylist and listened to everything what i wanted and made really helpful suggestions. Kristin was the makeup artist and made me look beautiful -- she struck the right balance between making me look special but still like myself. I felt absolutely beautiful on my wedding day!

With a last minute wedding (less than half a year to plan) the last thing on my list was the make-up and hair. Unfortunately, by the time my search was completed, I wasted a lot of money and time on trials. On my final attempt I came across Ayari’s website, I was skeptical at first because there were not many pictures and the price was more than reasonable compared to the other places I tried. But I learned that although they didn’t have as many pictures or was not the most expensive, they gave the highest quality service. Kristin (makeup artist) was amazing, she was very accommodating, she even came to my home for the trials – which not many places do for the trials. She was extremely attentive and listened to all my concerns. I have acne scars and she was able to conceal all of them very well. I didn’t feel the make-up and it stayed on all night, sweating and all. Erica (hair artist) came along as well and created a masterpiece on my head. They both have a lot of experience and it definitely showed in their work and on top of that you will receive people that you can communicate with easily and probably gain two friends out of it like I did. I am truly grateful for all the work they did!

Where to start, all I can say is I'm so glad I got recommended to Ayari's Bride. After my hair and make up trial, I knew I was in good hands. They are very flexible, listen to my suggestions. I can't believe that my make up and hair lasted throughout the whole night and even after my husband shoved cake on my face. I will recommend Ayari's Bride to anyone either for a wedding, engagement shoot, a night out in the town. Thank you girls for making me look so beautiful on my wedding day!!! :D

Jessica was great my make-up stayed perfect from the morning until I took it off at night. In my pictures my skin looked flawless!!!!! I am sooo hooked!! I will be calling her for any special event ...she is fabulous !!!

Ayari and her team were great! They were very friendly and professional. My makeup stay put during the entire day :)

Ayari and her team were fantastic!! The nicest and funniest group of girls - made the entire morning comfortable and we all looked awesome! Ayari made me look flawless and Erica did my hair way beyond my expectations - I didn't have an exact look in mind but they blew me away. She's also super responsive despite emails late at night!

Ayari brides was the perfect beauty vendor for my wedding. They were prompt in getting back to me, flexible with consultation times and even drove out to my house in staten island for my wedding. Always on time they made me look beautiful on my big day and the makeup was so secure it made it through the ceremony through the reception and even into my wedding night. I looked amazing ghr entire time worth the money. I never worried about my makeup wearing off. They were great.

I love her!!!!!!!!! Our trial was simply amazing. I have discoloration on my skin and she was able to mix two colors to get my foundation color on pt! I told her I wanted simple yet elegant since I dont wear makeup everyday. OMG! My makeup trial with her was amazing! My skin was breaking out and you couldnt even tell and my makeup wasnt heavy at all esp with airbrush! Def worth checkin out!!!

I was extremely pleased with Ayari's work for my wedding day make-up! Her artistic abilities are nothing short of amazing! Ayari was a true pleasure to work with - her professionalism, responsiveness, and flexibility to meet my schedule really helped to make my wedding a success! I would highly recommend Ayari to all Brides. Thank you Ayari for making me look like a true princess on my Wedding Day.

Ayari was very accomodating and very professional. I would definitely recommend her.

Jessica did makeup for myself and my bridesmaids in early September. Everyone loved their makeup and it definitely lasted through the whole evening. I would recommend her to any bride!

Jessica was courteous and patient which is exactly what most brides are looking for during a very stressful time period. She was also extremely professional and knowledgeable about her craft. I would highly recommend her to make any bride and her bridesmaids flawless for the big day.

Ayari was one of the very few makeup artists I found who didn't charge an extra arm and a leg as a travel fee!!! Although I only hired her for a makeup trial, I was comfortable hiring her hair stylist as well after my great experience. She arrived with hair and makeup team who actually were great and speedy. I was worried a little because I gave them a short time frame to work with but they managed to get all 4 of us ready with makeup and hair in less than 2 hours! AMAZING! proving they work great under pressure. I loved everything about our hair and makeup!

I received airbrush makeup from Ayari's Brides for my wedding two months ago. Ayari was easy to reach via phone and text messages and very accomodating. Her price for a bride was similar to most that I found except that she didn't have a minimum number of people required. I only had three bridesmaids and none needed makeup only me.
On my wedding date, Ayari arrived before our set time and was ready with her tools. I have good skin so not too much coverage was needed. Ayari's makeup turned out beautiful since she used great colors. It also lasted all night so that when I took pictures with family near the end of the reception I still looked great. I wasn't sure whether to go with the lashes or not so Ayari gave me the option of deciding on the spot. After seeing how nice they looked, I opted for the lashes.
Having Ayari do my makeup was a great experience. I had never done my makeup professionally before and was a bit afraid since I have friends who go to the MAC counters and come out with too much makeup. I was glad that based on our discussion, Ayari was able to decide what look would be good on me.

I was extremely pleased with the hair and makeup provided by Ayari and her team. They arrived on time (actually a bit earlier which gave me extra time in the end to just relax) and she was extremely professional and affordable. We did a trial a month before my wedding, and I decided to go with her after 3 other trials I had done. She listened to my needs and did my makeup exactly like the photo I showed her. Maybe even better!

I believe one of the most important things to a wedding is bringing out the natural and true beauty of one's self. On that day I believe I was that and more thanks to Ayari. She took her time to ensure that not only was I perfected but I was exactly how I wanted. FLAWLESSS...

I have used Ayari's Brides services for three occasions; bridal party, bachelorette party and wedding. She is so flexible and caters to her clients needs. On all three events I have been more than satisfied with her work and felt so beautiful with all the compliments I have received. I would reccomend her to any and everyone I know.

Thank you so much for accommodating me in such short notice. I love that you are very committed to your work and your passion shows through the beauty you create. You gave me the confidence for my special day and made me feel extra special. Showing up on time sure relieved some of my wedding stress for sure. It was a real pleasure working with you and I thank you so much for listening to all my concerns and providing a look that exceeded my expectations. I can not wait for my next event in which I am sure will definitely include you. Keep up the excellent work.

Ayari's Brides is a fabulous company comprised of professional and amazingly talented artists. The artistry exuded by the makeup artists and hair stylists on this team will have every blushing bride looking wedding isle ready in no time. I joined Ayari's Brides in 2010, as one of the company's lead makeup artists, and have thoroughly enjoyed working with this team.

Awesome Make-up Artist to Work With!
