Rating Neetu 5-stars all around was super easy for me. I've worked with Neetu over a dozen times and I'm always looking forward to seeing her next. She is defiantly my go to makeup artist because not only she's very bubbly and sweet, she's punctual! It's so important to me that my MUA is on time and she has never let me down! Also her kit/products look clean and smell nice, hygiene is a must. I never have to worry when she is in control of my face and hair cause she knows what shes doing! Neetu has done several of my photo shoot makeup as well as my grad makeup and hair.

I have never looked more beautiful
The entire experience of working with Neetu and team for the ‘Queen Bee’ bridal package was amazing. All my bridesmaids, mother and mother in law never looked more beautiful as we all got our hair and makeup done through afterglow studios. The makeup trial, touch up kit and extreme flexibility of services even during the pandemic were beyond expectations. Bridal makeup was so beautiful I felt confident and 🤩 pretty. Never received so many compliments in my life!!

Showered With Compliments!
Afterglow Studios is amazing! We booked for my sister's wedding a few years and loved her so much that we booked for my wedding this year. Neetu is amazingly skilled at what she does! I got so many compliments on my makeup and she tailored it to exactly what I wanted. It came out beautiful in person and in photos and turned out exactly how I was hoping! Neetu is so kind and works hard to understand your vision and give you exactly what you're looking for. The studio was so prompt with communication throughout the booking process, checking in beforehand to give skin tips and had a very thorough COVID-19 cleaning protocol which made me feel super safe. They were also super flexible with last minute scheduling changes due to getting married during a pandemic and I can't recommend them enough!

Loved my hair and make-up!!
I highly recommend Neetu and her team for make-up and hair. I received lots of compliments on my hair and make-up. Neetu is very talented and honest in the recommendations that will work. I had a trial where she spent about 3 hours doing my hair and make-up and was flexible in making changes that I wanted on the day of the wedding. My make-up and hair were gorgeous and I still looked like myself which was important to me. Neetu was fantastic and did a great job working with extensions that I bought. She curled my extensions ahead of the wedding day so we can stay on timeline on the wedding day.
Neetu and her team also did the hair and make-up for my mom and three bridesmaids. They all loved their hair/make-up and received a ton of compliments. We received schedules for our hair and make-up and the team was punctual and on track.
One thing that I would have liked is to have more lipstick and gloss in the Emergency kit.
Thank you Neetu and the Afterglow Team for all of your hard work and your amazing talent.

Thank you for taking the time to write us a review Diala! You were such an amazing bride to work with and truly so beautiful inside and out so my job was such a breeze. It was a pleasure to work with everyone in your booking and you.
We will definitely be considering your feedback regarding the touch-up kit. We are already looking into options to provided a full size lip product that would be within the pricing of the current touch-up kit or offering a touch-up kit at a higher price point that gives brides the option to select a full size lip product. We hope to have this established by the new year. We appreciate your feedback and are aways looking for ways to better our service. We also would like to apologize that you did not feel the touch-up kit you recieved at your wedding was at the value you thought it should be and have been issued a refund for the $25 value of the touch-up kit.
Please feel free to contact us at any point if you feel there is anything we can assist you with and thank you again for putting your trust in Afterglow Studios.

Hi Nicole,
Thank you so much for the positive review! We don't have any information regarding servicing your wedding and while we appreciate the 5 stars we hope you were able to review the correct company. Your wedding photo looks beautiful by the way! Cheers.
