MU8 Beauty Studio

I'm a lil late to leaving a review but wanted to take some time to give the MU8 team that worked with me a huge shoutout. I got married in late September and coordinating with MU8 was seamless and wonderful. They are so organized, responded very promptly to all my emails, and the owner Patrice is such a kind gem and I had nothing but great interactions with her. MU8 keeps you on your timeline, are very transparent about everything, and just kind and professional overall. Now for the team that worked with me the day. They were nothing short of amazing, Colleen, one of the hairstylists, had endless patience as my girls were trickling in. She had so much flexibility and sometimes there were long waiting periods for her, but she was so cheerful and so incredible upon arrival. Also Sammi my hairstylist- amazing, amazing, amazing. The compliments for my hair were ENDLESS all throughout the night. She just nailed it and my hair looked as good as it did when I started the day and I was headbanging hard-core on the dance floor and our karaoke after party. It did not budge. I still am wowed by her skills. And Madison, one of the makeup artists for my girls, is the queen of good vibes and a true sweetheart. She was also so supportive of my last minute decision to do my own makeup (I used to do makeup myself a looooong time ago and at the last second had a change of heart and actually wanted to try to do my own for my day), and was there to just give me a second opinion once I was done. She and Sammi set up downstairs in the bi-level hotel where I was hanging out for most of the morning and we all had such fun conversations and the girls were vibing hard-core. I can't recommend MU8 enough, my girls looked amazing, the talent from these hair and makeup gals is unmatched, and everyone looks so beautiful in their photos. I had whopping 8 girls in my entourage and they are more than equipped to handle a bigger bridal party. Most importantly, we all had a good time. The morning of can be so stressful for a bride but MU8 took ALL that stress away.

I used MU8 for my wedding this past weekend and they did such a phenomenal job! The communication Patrice provides throughout the process is top notch. They really took the time to figure out what I wanted and liked and then perfectly reproduced that on me for my wedding day. I cannot recommend MU8 enough for a fellow bride and bridal party!

I chose MU8 for their makeup service on my wedding day and it was the best decision I could’ve made! Firstly, Patrice is so friendly and easy to talk to. I told her about my concerns with my bridal party being varied skin tones and she assured me that they would all look great. Our artist was Frankie and she fit in right along with us as we got ready the morning of the wedding. She went above and beyond to make sure my look was what I asked for. I’ve never felt more beautiful! I’m so happy I chose MU8 for my bridal beauty team!

I truly cannot thank MU8 enough for all of their hard work leading up to and on the day of my wedding. Me, my mom, my MIL, and all of my bridesmaids felt and looked BEAUTIFUL on the big day, and it is entirely due to their dedication and positive energy. Patrice’s patience with me through this process, working with me over the past year to make sure I loved BOTH of my looks and working an extra long day to ensure me and my girls looked fabulous and special for 20 HOURS, was a highlight for me. They are experts at what they do, understanding and prioritizing a diverse range of hair and skin tones. All of the MU8 stylists take feedback extremely well, and as a people pleaser who has a hard time articulating what she likes and doesn’t like, this was a game changer for me. After doing a lot of research, I found the MU8 prices extremely affordable and reasonable - especially for the level of service I received. If you need hair and makeup for any occasion, look no further than MU8.

MU8 was.a dream!! From my first call with Patrice to the big day, Patrice and team were AMAZING at every step of the way. As background, I'm Latina who wears her hair naturally curly. My six bridesmaids come from different racial backgrounds and, as such, have different, beautiful skin tones. When I was doing research on bridal hair and make-up in Philly, it was SHOCKINGLY hard to find any company that appreciated and embraced diversity. So, imagine how lucky I felt when I serendipitously came across MU8! From the website to the pictures, it was VERY CLEAR that diversity was a value. And sure enough, it was. I can go on and on about the wonderful MU8 but I will just say this. Patrice, Frankie, and team made me feel seen. When I told Patrice that I wanted to get married with my naturally curly hair, she worked with me to find a look that I ADORED. Patrice and Frankie also worked with all my bridesmaids on their make up and every single one of them LOVED their look. Frankie did my make up (and my mom and grandma)...and my gosh. The look was GLORIOUS. On top of that, the team came in the morning of with so much sunshine on a cloudy, shower-y day. All in all, I count my lucky stars to have met MU8. If you are between choosing your hair and/or make up, I hope this gives you the motivation you need.
