    Hello! 

    I am looking for an affordable MUA and hairstylist for my wedding. I met with a few people already and I did not like their style (and attitude). 

    I usually do my own hair and make up and people always give me compliments. On my wedding day I'll be preoccupied with other stuff so I won't be able to do my hair and make up on my own - 

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    I believe there are a few posts already on the subject, so look around for more suggestions. Here are a few of the MUA that come highly recommended around these parts:

    Sachiko Yanese

    Ai Sakai 

    Sissi Chan

    Reiko Utsugi

    Unfortunately, I've never had the pleasure with working with any of the above, so I don't know how affordable they are.  But, I have worked with Jennifer Ngo and she's great and very affordable, unfortunately, she prefers to work out of her salon in Queens (I think that's partly how she keeps her rates so low).  In case you are still interested, her number is: 718-961-9888

    Good luck!

    @MIK - I think she's very reasonable.  She prices per-bridemaid and will adjust fees depending on services.  That is, you pay less or more based on how much you want her to do.
