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.

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.

Amazing results and customer service!
I highly recommend Neetu and her team for bridal makeup services. I had my bridal makeup done as well as 4 bridesmaids and my mom. Not only were the prices reasonable, the results on the day of were stunning! We received a lot of compliments on our hair and makeup and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. As a bonus, her and her team were so fun to work with and helped ease my pre-wedding stress with their jokes and reassurance. It was so nice to get ready in the comfort of my own home and have them bring their kits to us.
Leading up to the wedding, Neetu helped me figure out what I wanted my makeup to look like during the makeup/hair trial. I don't wear makeup very often so I was anxious about looking over-done or not looking like myself. Neetu took the time to work with me and help me figure out what looked best, and made sure that I felt that everything was perfect! She did a natural look for all of us and made us all look gorgeous. Exceptional customer service AND results. Neetu was super flexible and very responsive over email, and we both communicated our expectations well with each other which made the day of the wedding such a breeze. Thank you Neetu and team! I'd love to work with you again in the future and would recommend them to anybody looking for makeup for their wedding!

Made me a beautiful bride
Neetu and Afterglow Studios did my wedding hair and make up this past May. I had an absolute blast getting to know Neetu during our trial, it was so relaxed and professional. The day of my wedding she did my hair/make up and also my mother's. My mom doesn't wear make up on a day to day basis, but Neetu made her look so natural and beautiful. She turned me into a beautiful bride, i'm not sure what kind of magic she did with my hair but the volume was incredible. My make up was natural and it lasted all day through the laughing and crying. Highly recommend!
