The BEST Hair & Makeup Artist!!!

Ora was FANTASTIC in both my trial and wedding day!! She took notes during the trial about areas to double check on the day of to make sure I look my best on our wedding day. On our wedding day, she took great care and attention to detail, not just on my hair and makeup, but also on my dress, entrance, and overall wellbeing 🥹🥹 Highly recommend going with Ora for your big day!!

Hair and Makeup Review

Ora was everything I could ask for! She maintained contact with me throughout the planning process and always replied super fast. She did exactly what I envisioned for my hair and makeup for my wedding day and I was so happy with the result, AND IT LASTED ALL DAY! I cried A LOT of tears and my makeup did not smudge one bit. Thank you again Ora!

Affordable, friendly, reliable, and great results!

Ora was amazing and I highly recommend her! She offered a discounted hair & makeup trial which was really helpful because she noted my preferences and the products that work best for me, so that on my wedding day we finished ahead of schedule. She also lets clients borrow her veils, hair pieces, and jewelry, which saved me a lot of money. I appreciate that her prices are very reasonable compared to other HMUA I’ve researched. She is very reliable and responds quickly to emails and messages, and she is extremely friendly. I am recommending her to all of my engaged friends!

Make up and hair

Ora was very professional and cared a lot about me (the bride) during my wedding. Her and her team Erika came on time and even earlier to set up and ensure my bridal finishes on time. Ora’s attention to detail was impeccable. She even stayed to ensure my makeup was touched up after my first look. She worked me with to create the perfect look.
Highly recommend Ora and hear team to brides out there.

A Super Knowledgable MUA

Ora is a fantastic MUA. She is very knowledgable and knows how to match different looks to the person. I had no experience of make up prior to Ora, but I absolutely loved the look she gave me, especially with her choice of wispy falsies. She knows how to pair skin tones, and the different makeup styles to give depending on the time of day as well. Not to mention that Ora is very friendly, professional, and puts much care and passion into her work. I highly recommend her services!

Excellent MUA

3 months before my big day, I was nervous to find make up artist with reasonable price for my Bridal parties and the Moms.
I found Ora's portfolio through IG, and I like her make up style as they are very subtle and natural looking. I inquire and found out her price is very reasonable.
Closer to the big day, some of my overseas guests would like to have their makeup and hair done as well since they aren't sure where to find a good local make up artist.
Ora Chen accomodate all of my sudden changes and requests professionaly. She's very flexible with the last minute changes.
On the big day, Ora and her team did all my bridesmaids and moms hair and make up. They all looks stunning and beautiful.
The guests who had their make up and hair done were also satisfied.
She is also very friendly and easy to talk to.
I would highly recommend my friends and relatives to have Ora's team for any important celebration.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
