Mae You Be - Hair Stylist and Makeup Artist

Michelle was such a wonderful hair and makeup artist for our wedding. She did my hair and makeup and makeup for my Mum, mother-in-law and sister. Each of us were able to ask for a tailored look that we loved, while Michelle made sure there was a common theme running throughout all the looks. We came home from overseas right before the wedding and Michelle only had photos to work from. But everything was perfect. She also happens to be a delight. We had a wonderfully relaxing start to our wedding day and I couldn't have asked for more. Thanks Michelle!

We had Michelle do our hair and make up for my brother’s wedding. We instantly felt at ease with her. She was warm, sensitive to our needs and had a sense of humour to boot! Which was needed as the poor mother of the groom was unluckily bitten on the cheek by a bug and had an allergic reaction. Michelle handled this with great care and performed some kind of sorcery to expertly cover up the swollen and red area. Mum looked amazing! For myself, I loved my look. Michelle followed my inspo pics expertly, yet added her own flair. I felt so good that day. She certainly contributed to making the day very special. I would absolutely recommend Michelle for any special occasion or professional gig. Thank you Michelle!

Michelle is a gem! I contacted Michelle for the hair and makeup for my 4 bridesmaids and me. Given the size of our party and timeframe of the day, Michelle arranged for a make up artist and she focused on our hair. Michelle made the whole process so seamless. From the trial to the day, Michelle was organised, prompt to respond, so friendly, reliable and talented. I recommend Michelle to anyone who is getting married in the Southern Highlands or surrounds.

Michelle came in and did the makeup for my 7 bridesmaids, for both the mothers and myself. From my makeup trail with her, to the big day, she was also super friendly, but also professional. I never had to worry about her, I knew she had it all under control. Her assistant was also extremely lovely, and they were both very accommodating when I had a last minute person needing makeup done. The makeup was superb, and all the girls loved it. Would definitely recommend Michelle to anyone. She is wonderful, a great communicator and puts everyone at ease.

Michelle did such a fab job of my bridal hair and make up and my bridesmaids too! She created such beautifully soft natural looks, we had tons of compliments and felt fabulous all day :) It was so nice having Michelle and Sam there the morning of the wedding, they are both so lovely and friendly. An added bonus was the nutrition recommendations in the lead up to the wedding. I highly recommend her. Thank you Michelle! xx

Michelle is super friendly and passionate about her work. She did my bridal party’s hair and makeup and we absolutely loved her work! She showed up nice and early and made us feel super comfortable on the day. Definitely deserves 5 stars and 100% would recommend Michelle!

Michelle did my wedding hair and makeup in April, and together with her colleague Sam, also did the hair and makeup of my Mum and two bridesmaids. I was over the moon with the whole experience and the final looks!When we met at the trial in February, Michelle recommended an oil cleanse and exfoliation to help with my congested skin. Come the wedding day, it worked! My skin was much clearer, so the foundation sat on top of it nicely.Michelle's warm and friendly nature and her calm professionalism made the morning of the wedding fun and relaxing. She is very experienced and incredibly skilled. I was so happy with my hair and makeup! I felt like the very best version of myself. My bridesmaids and Mum said the same and we all received compliments all day long.I am incredibly grateful to Michelle and cannot recommend her highly enough!

Michelle was by far amazing! She did my wedding hair on June 24th 2023 as well as my bridesmaids and she was so down to earth talking away keeping my nerves down. I ran out of time to do a trial for my hair which made me nervous, since I have long thick hair, but Michelle offered to call and talk it all through with me which helped me ease.Our hair was so beautifully done and the curls stayed in for the entire day/night!I would recommend Michelle for any event!

Michelle recently did our hair and makeup for a family wedding in Bowral and we had a fantastic experience. We were staying in a house of more than 15 people and she was a kind, calm presence amongst the chaos and did an amazing job on our hair and make-up! We had flower girls, mother of the groom and wedding guest in the mix and everyone felt so glam and really enjoyed the experience.I am so glad we booked Michelle and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a hair and make-up artist!
