Both my bridal party, MOB, Mother of Groom, and myself (bride) truly enjoyed our experience with Nika Vaughan. I was very impressed with Julia (hair) and Leanna (makeup). They were incredibly helpful during my preview, trying out different looks and styles, and very attentive to me during my big day as I changed up a few things with hair and makeup with both artists on the spot.
Julia and Leanna are also very lovely individuals. They put me at ease during my wedding day, I felt like I could trust them and was able to relax, and quite frankly, they did a phenomenal job in making me look like the best version of myself. There is nothing I would have changed for my own hair and makeup and everyone else they worked on looked gorgeous as well!
My professional photos have not yet come out however, I will attach them to this review once they are available.
If you are in the Chicago area and looking for very talented hair and makeup artists, as well as are very particular in achieving natural and polished looks, I could not recommend Nika Vaughan Bridal Artists enough!! You will not regret this decision if you hire them, they were some of my favorite vendors for the entire wedding planning process!

Jen (makeup) and Samantha (hair) are so incredible, I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the whole experience. The baseline was a great trial where each listened to my ideas and executed amazing looks and then were so flexible with my feedback to make my wedding day absolutely perfect. Hair and skincare recommendations at my preview were a plus to make sure I was in top shape for my big day! My goal was for myself and my bridal party to be the best versions of ourselves and these two absolutely delivered. Nika Vaughan as an organization was supportive and helpful with payments and scheduling, I can’t recommend this group enough for a wonderful wedding beauty experience!

Wow, what can I say? The work of this team (Ebony & Uwana Rose) was absolutely phenomenal. My bridesmaids, my mother, the grooms mother and myself were in excellent hands and we all looked amazing. And they were wonderful to spend our morning with. I’m so so thankful.

I, and my bridal party, had our makeup done by Lia for my wedding in October 2022. Let me say, Lia is PHENOMENAL! I was so nervous about getting may makeup done since I don't typically wear makeup, but at my trial run with Lia, she completely put me at ease. She is very professional, but still fun, and her skills are unbelievable. If I can find a way to work with her again, I will!

My experience working with Nika Vaughan Bridal Artists was overall very good! I loved the artists that I worked with (Dani, Christina, and Nora). They were so easy to work with and did an amazing job making everyone's vision for hair and makeup come to life. I've never felt more beautiful! They all arrived early the day of the wedding and were very professional.
My issues stem from the lack of flexibility in the contract and the difficulty I had contacting the company during covid. When some of my bridesmaids were no longer able to come because of travel restrictions, I was not able to be refunded for their services, even though I knew at least a month in advance. Instead of a partial refund, a third artist was added to the contract to shorten the appointment time, which ended up working out in the end, but the lack of flexibility during an already stressful time was a little frustrating. Also, the responsiveness May-August was lacking quite a bit. My emails would go unanswered for a week or more, and the window of time that they were available was very small. Again, wedding planning during covid was already stressful enough, so the lack of a timely response only added to that stress.
Despite the two issues I had, I would still recommend Nika Vaughan Bridal Artists because they do AMAZING work, and I loved working with all of the artists. I seriously felt like a princess, which is what every bride wants on her wedding day!
