Nancy is the best there is out in rural MA/CT. Absolutely on par with make-up artists in NYC and Boston and a pleasure to work with.

Very highly recommended. Nancy and Ivette were so accommodating and catered to the specific needs of everyone in the wedding party. I loved that they were able to create a natural look for everyone that made for some great pictures. Thanks again!

The name says it all: Be Yourself Beauty. Nancy was great from consultation through day of the wedding. She actually came up the wedding location & did our make-up on site. FABULOUS option!! A snapshot of our little of our make-over adventure: My now hubby was concerned about his daughters having their make-up professionally done; he didn't want them to be "all made-up". I literally had to kick him out while the girls were getting their make-up done and when he finally did get to see them; he couldn't have been more pleased. They looked beautiful; all their natural beauty high-lighted just right! I was the most excited to see my Mom. My Mom wears very little make-up; and she doesn't wear foundation at all, but I knew for pictures she would need full make-up. My Mom looked so fantastic, I almost cried! Nancy chose just the right colors for my Mom's complexion & hair color; I couldn't believe how naturally beautiful she looked! As the bride, I got to go last and even down to crunch time I was making adjustments to the eyeliner color and Nancy was more than accommodating. I couldn't have been more pleased with my look and I couldn't have done it without Nancy! Of course the hubby had the same concern regarding my make-up; he said to me; I want to marry the Deb I know, so I hope you're going to look like yourself after this make-over & I did; only BETTER! He almost cried! We got stellar reviews from Family & Friends and Nancy gets a stellar review from me, my bridal party & my Mom!

Nancy Hathaway did my makeup for my wedding 6/25/11. When I first met with her for a trial run, I couldn't decide what I wanted. Nancy did half my face with traditional makeup and the other half air brushed (which I have never had). I chose the airbrush it looked perfect on my other than perfect skin. She came to my hotel room and did her magic, I looked and felt beautiful on my wedding day, she did a great job and was genuinely happy to be in the moment with me. I would highly recommend her for any of your special events. You will look and feel gorgeous and sometimes we owe it to ourselves.

Nancy and her team did a really amazing job on my bridesmaids and I. The price was very reasonable for quality of service. Day of they were on time and did gorgeous hair and makeup. They went above and beyond even helping me figure out how to attach my veil and did last minute sewing. I highly recommend Be Yourself Beauty.

Nancy and Bobbie Joe provided the most amazing service on my wedding day! I had my hair and makeup done, and both mothers had their makeup done. Our makeup looked so natural and pretty - I truly felt 100% comfortable walking down the aisle, which is amazing since I am not used to wearing much makeup. I feel so fortunate that they were able to do my hair and makeup on my wedding day!

I do want to say that Nancy & Bobbi Jo are wonderful in what they do. I can't believe the great service they've given me. Any future brides looking for a make-up & hair stylist in the CT area...look no more! Their prices were very reasonable & products they used were great. Thank you so much Nancy & Bobbi Jo for making me feel & looking awesome on my special day!

I am the Mom of the Bride, my daughter was married on 6/13/10. Our experience with BeYourselfBeauty was one that will always be remembered. Nancy was extroidinary as a makeup artist and special person. She was more than happy to accommodate by coming to the Bride, Myself & the Bridal party at the hotel we were staying at. She arrived very early in the a.m. to insure that we were ready for the 3pm ceremony. Our makeup was flawless. Nancy gave detailed attention & spent the time on each of us until we were perfect. Nancy has the most incredible glowing personality. She also took on the role of keeping us calm and made our experience fun & enjoyable.The whole wedding party loved her. We invited her to the reception so she could be part of our special day and have a good time with us.Nancy made my daughter & I feel like we have known her forever..& we are honored to call her our friend.We highly recommend BeYourselfBeauty, your special day would not be complete without Nancy & her gift of incredible makeup artistry!!!

First off I need to say that Nancy and Bobbi-Jo deserve more than just 5 star rating. Brides the way you look and feel is extremely important on your wedding day, because it is YOUR DAY and no one elses. that is exactly how this team operates.. I did my research before finding these two amazing women. someplaces you look you find the right price, other places you will find the hair but not the make up or you wont click with the stylists. WELL BRIDES LOOK NO FURTHER NANCY and BOBBI-JO ARE TOP NOTCH. with them you have it all great hair, great makeup and great chemsitry with your vendors.. they are so down to earth and friendly that you forget they are just a vendor and you feel more like a friend with them..with Nancy and Bobbi- Jo i felt at ease i found everything i wanted for my day with them when my nerves were thru the roof they brought be back to earth. when i first went for my trail appt and didnt know what i was envisioning i had too much on my brain and not enuf decided i told the ladies what i was looking for and they created without a doubt exactly what i was looking for.. they helped make my wedding day perfect i truely felt like the princess in a fairytale on my wedding. so much now that i have decided to begin traveling over an hour just to have Bobby jo be my regular hair stylist.. Thank you again Nancy and Bobbi-Jo~!!!!!

I was very happy with my look on my wedding day. I don't normally wear a lot of make-up, and I wanted to make sure that I still looked like myself in my wedding photos. Nancy (make-up) and Bobbi Jo (hair) are perfectionists and they weren't happy until they were sure that I was happy. They were both fun and easy to work with. Thank you Nancy!

Nancy and Bobbi Jo did such a wonderful job for our wedding. Bonnie felt very comfortable and natural in her make-up and I felt like a princess. They were so gracious to our bridal party and we had a great time getting ready. This was a destination wedding for us, and Nancy was incredibly flexible in scheduling our trial. I felt like they really listened to us and made changes based on our feedback. It was clear that they wanted us to feel comfortable and to have the look we wanted.Our hair and make-up photographed beautifully. My hair is very fine and tends to lose its shape quickly, but as promised I still had curls at the end of the day. Our make-up survived the tears, hugs, and dancing.I would highly recommend Be Yourself Beauty

Nancy and Bobbi-Jo are THE make-up/hair duo you'd want for your wedding. I highly recommend them to any bride and bridal party in the area. I did a TON of research before choosing this duo and was so extremely well pleased. They made me FEEL like a bride (ladies - this means a lot on your actual wedding day). The convenience of having BOTH the make-up and hair together done at your location of choice was a huge benefit - no having to waste time driving around and risk messing up your hair/makeup. The quality of both make-up/hair was exceptional for myself and my bridal party - my mom who never wears make-up looked fabulous (10 years younger, even). The value was the best from what I researched as well (saving money but still looking so beautiful felt great). Regarding responsiveness, Nancy was always on top of things, very reliable, I had no worries. And the best part... was that on my wedding day I felt like I was with FRIENDS and not some distant professional. Nancy and Bobbi-Jo were so warm, so sweet, so friendly. We were laughing and having a great time getting to know each other while they were preparing me for the most blessed day of my life. Again, ladies, I did the research, they're the best out there. You'll only love your experience and the way they'll enhance your natural beauty. God bless you on your journey through life united always your best friend and soul mate! God bless your marriage!!!Oh, and if I may, I highly recommend Woodwinds (reception), Bel Fiore (flowers), and Bill M. @ LocalMotion (DJ). My husband and I did a TON of research here too and they far exceeded our (naturally HIGH) expectations!

Nancy and Bobbi-Jo were nothing but professional, I could not have asked for more. They understand the stresses that a bride goes through on that special day and they both made me feel at ease and like a complete princess for the day!
