Mia was Fabulous! From the very beginning I was nervous because of course this was my wedding day. Mia was right on time with the tools and her magic. I was the happiest Bride on earth that day and people could not stop commenting on my hair and makeup. I would suggest Mia to everyone I know. MIA is the absolute best in the business.

Mia Farah styled my hair along with 5 bridemaids and my mother for my October 2nd wedding. She is amazing!!
I had a trial with her back in March and it only took one trial to know she was the one to go with. She tried two different looks at my trial and that was it.
The morning of my wedding she arrived promptly to get started on the wedding party. She moved through everyone in a timely fashion and everyone's hair was BEAUTIFUL. Everyone received compliments on their hair throughout the ceremony and reception. The girls who wore their hair half down and curly looked just as amazing at the end of the night as they did at the beginning. There wasn't a droopy curl to be seen.
My hair was a beautiful updo and I got so many compliments.
I was beyond happy with Mia's work and would recommend her over and over again.

From start to finish, Mia was an amazing person to work with. After tons of research and trials from other hairstylists, I was very nervous about finding the right person for our special day (my hair was very important for me to have done right). As soon as I sat in her chair for my trial, all of my fears went away and I knew she was the one for the job. Not only did she style my hair the way I initially wanted it, but she also gave me other alternatives that were along the lines of what I wanted. Needless to say, I changed my mind and fell in love with one of the other styles she showed me!
The day of the wedding, Mia showed professionalism and patience. We were behind schedule before she arrived and she showed such poise under pressure. She transformed my hair and truly made me feel like a princess! It was also raining the day of my wedding and while some girls' hair show the effects of humidity (i have curly/frizzy hair) my hair stayed perfect from beginning to end.
I truly recommend Mia's services. If you want a hassle/worry free wedding there are no other hands to put them in then hers. Being the first of three girls to get married, my mother and sisters already agreed there is no one else we want to use. She is truly a diamond in the rough-she is a genuinely sweet person with a true talent in what she does.

I worked with Mia and Tasha on the day of my wedding, and of course, I was not disappointed. I had no doubts about booking Mia Farah Beautique for wedding services, based on reviews and from my flawless hair trial and they did not disappoint. My hair came out amazing as well as my bridesmaids, in addition the makeup came out so good for my girls, that people who did not original schedule for makeup decided to get theirs done that day. They were on time, efficient and very personable. On a stressful day Mia had me laughing the whole time, not to mention that the bridal fascinator I used in my trial she gave to me free on a whim, and that was my bridal piece on my wedding day. I truly felt like a rockstar and thats because I worked with people I could trust and not have to follow behind. She took her time and made sure I loved it, and even came by my room before she left to see if I needed an touch up. You think you're hiring a beautician and ended up with a new friend and you can't beat that. On a side note, I asked for some advice in hiring a DOC, because she is so well known, and she really helped me dodge a major wedding day catastrophe with my original choice and for that I am eternally grateful. She was an integral part of the success of my day, and will ONLY use MIA of Mia Farah Beautique for future endeavors. All the best to you!

Mia was wonderful!! She came to my house for two trials and 1 week before the wedding I still didn't know how I wanted my hair so I went to her adorable salon for a third trial. She made great suggestions along the way and the day of the wedding I felt like a movie star. My bridesmaids and mom went first and every one of them looked amazing. Makeup and hair was perfect. Then came my turn and my makeup made was FLAWLESS! Hair was just as amazing. I highly recommend Mia as she is Fabulous.

Mia Hendrickson is the best Hair and Makeup artist there is!! There is definitely not a better artist out there. And she is an artist! The hair and makeup she did was absolutely gorgeous!! I have never felt more beautiful in my entire life! She uses airbrush makeup which is really light and natural looking. It doesn’t even feel like you are wearing makeup. And the best part is I was crying a ton and not a single smudge or run was on my face! I was astonished I don’t know how or what she used but I mean I cried a lot and my mother got her makeup done as well and she really cried a lot and the makeup stayed and looked like perfection! As for my hair I have thin fine hair that takes a lot of work to keep a curl and those curls stayed in all day! Even with all my dancing and jumping around the hairstyle did not budge. So If you want to look like perfection on your wedding day and have it last all day Mia Hendrickson is who you should use!! http://bridallounge.blogspot.com/

OMG! I don't know where to start! Mia was the absolute best before and on the day of my wedding! I did my Make Up trial with her and it went great! She knew exactly what to do and what I wanted just by me telling her the colors of the wedding and how I wanted the makeup. I also did my hair trial with and she knew exactly what would look beautiful on me. She even helped pick out my hair piece to match the hairstyle and style of my dress! A true sweetheart!
The day of the wedding she got there early, and she even came with her other 2 assistants which was a life saver because I had about 9 other girls getting their Makeup done that day as well. All the girls could not stop talking about how beautiful their makeup looked that day, they really looked amazing!! They got compliments the whole day :-)
Mia made me look absolutely beautiful that day!!! My make up came out even better than it did at the trial, and my hair was so beautiful and perfect! She made me feel like a princess that day. I honestly can't thank her enough for making me look the way I did! If any of you are thinking about getting services with her, don't even think about it twice, just book her!!!! You won't regret it!! She is the sweetest person on earth and everyone loved her, I will go back to her for all my special occasions. :-)

There are no words to express how amazing Mia was during the entire process of wedding planning. Her skill and abilities are wonderful and she will make sure that the exact way you imagine yourself on your wedding day comes true. She is sweet, kind and very patient. She has gone above and beyond numerous times during my wedding planning and even for non-wedding related hair and makeup things. Thank you so much for all you did!

IÂ’m sure everyone on this board has heard of M*I*A. She is truly talented and amazing at what she does! She arrived at 6:30 am on the dot with Theresa and Claudette. I still donÂ’t know how they did Me, 5 BMÂ’s; 2 little girls; my mom; my mom in law; my grandmother in law and my friend Judy and we were still ON TIME! Everyone looked beautiful! MY BMÂ’s are divaÂ’s and I had warned M*I*A about them but she knew exactly how to handle everyone! She is worth EVERY PENNY!

I utilized the services of Mia from Bridal Lounge for hair and makeup services on my wedding day. After my initial hair and makeup trial I knew I made the right decision in hiring Bridal Lounge. Mia and her assistant showed up to our hotel on time (5:00am!) and began work promptly. They worked with a variety of hair types and complexions and made everyone in the bridal party look absolutely beautiful. Our make-up lasted the entire evening and everyoneÂ’s hair stayed in place. Mia and her assistant were both very professional and friendly. I highly recommend them!

Mia was amazing. She arrived at my house 30 minutes early which was a nice surprise. She started with my hair then she did my sisterÂ’s and momÂ’s makeup and then she did my makeup. She made me look and feel like a princess. I am so happy that I decided to change my hair from half up to all up. I did not have to worry about it staying in place. The next morning it still loved amazing! She was done just before the photographer got there. She then helped me put my veil in place. She was friendly and polite the entire time. I highly recommend her.

Mia showed up very early the day of my wedding which was great because as most brides I was nervous to be ready on time. Originally I expected her to only do my make up, because I had not done a hair trial. But the day of the wedding, when I explained what I wanted for hair she started to do it. I have had bad experiences in the past with people who do not know how to handle curly hair but she is great. She worked with my hair products as per my request, but knew how to use the diffuser and handle the curls perfectly. I wanted my hair to have all natural curls but still not look like my everyday hair style and she made me look gorgeous. As for make up, she is an expert in the field. I received so many compliments on my make up and she really listened to what I wanted. My eyes, lips and complexion looked amazing and my pictures show the great work she did. Not to mention she left me with touch up lipstick and the make up survived 100 degree weather. She is great with airbrushing and I would highly recommend her to any bride. Her salon for trials is a bit of a trek. It took me 2 hours to get there, but I am so glad I met her and booked her for my wedding. She was well worth the trip and is reasonably priced for professional service.

Mia is an absolute genius. And an architect. And an angel. She is beyond talented in her craft, and has the perfect temperament to keep a bride entertained and calm on the most hectic and stressful day in their life.
I booked my trial appointment with her, and met her at a salon in Bethpage. She spent a TON of time with me, over FOUR HOURS! She worked hard to create a special look for my big day, not the typical cookie cutter "bridal hair style" that I see very often on wedding websites. And we were so impressed, we booked her on the spot!
On the wedding day she arrived very promptly at my hotel room, and brought an assistant with her who was also great.
Mia truly made me feel like an absolute princess, and I absolutely love how my hair & makeup came out. We also hired her for my Mom and Mother in Law, my Matron of Honor, and hair for 1 Bridesmaid and makeup for another Bridesmaid. Everyone just looked great! I very highly recommend her to all future brides.
