Nova Makeup & Hair

Wedding PSA from your glam artist 💄👰🏼
Ladies… your wedding day is not the day to discover you’re “an updo girl.” 😂
Please just pick hairstyles that actually feel like YOU. If you normally wear your hair down, let’s elevate that 2.0. Let’s do soft curls, glam waves, half up half down, a beautiful blowout… but let’s not force a cockatoo updo because Pinterest told you to.
Prime example: my own mom for my brother’s wedding. I told her, “Mami, just get a blowout.” And guess what? She looked elegant, confident, comfortable, and most importantly… like herself.
The best bridal glam isn’t the trendiest look. It’s the version of YOU that feels effortless, timeless, and beautiful.
Future 2026/2027 brides — if you want soft glam

Every bride: “But I can’t sit in hair and makeup that longggg.” 😭
Meanwhile your fiancé is downstairs at the hotel pool smoking ci**rs with the boys, fully relaxed and unbothered.

Girl. Sit down. Drink the champagne. Enjoy your penthouse suite. You will survive being beautiful for a few extra hours.

I’ve built my reputation on timelines and logistics. I’m an expert at this, and I will NOT be the reason you’re late to the altar. We count backwards around here. Your photographer’s start time is my finish time. 🤍

Worked with a Turkish bride today and I swear… Turkish brides GET me. 😂🤍
She told me:
“I want natural.”
Then immediately followed it with:
“But I still want to look glamorous.”
THAT. RIGHT THERE. THAT’S MY SPECIALTY.
Because some artists hear “natural” and give you moisturizer and lip gloss like you’re headed to Pilates.
No baby.
You want:
• sculpted but soft
• glam but believable
• flawless but still like yourself
• “she’s stunning” not “she’s wearing makeup”
That’s an art form.
2026 & 2027 brides, if you keep saying:
“I want soft glam… but like… glam glam… but natural…”
I know EXACTLY what you mean. 😂
Please book the artist that understands the assignment before someone puts beige eyeshadow on you and calls it bridal makeup.
Soft glam should still make people lose their minds when you walk down the aisle. 🤍

2026 & 2027 brides, Nova here with the wedding advice nobody wants to say out loud:
Increase the hair & makeup budget. Immediately. Respectfully. Aggressively. 😂

You have 150 guests? Congratulations. That’s:
• 300 eyeballs
• 150 iPhones
• 9,000 candid photos you didn’t ask for
• and one ex from high school silently judging from Table 12.

Baby… this is not the moment to save $200.

Get the wooden chairs instead of the Chiavari chairs. Nobody has EVER looked at a wedding album and said:
“Wow… those reception linens changed my life.” 💀

But bad glam?
Oh, brides remember that forever.

Your wedding day is the most photographed day of your life. Prioritize the face. Prioritize the hair. Prioritize looking hot.

I have seen WAY too many brides regret cutting corners on beauty services while spending $4,000 on napkins nobody remembers.
Save money somewhere else.
Not on the thing attached to your actual head. 🤍
