Awarded Best of Zola
I booked Marissa even though she was a bit outside of the geographical region of our wedding, and I’m so glad I did. She did an amazing job with all our hair styles (bride 4 other girls) and was great to work with. Marissa is easy to contact and is responsive. Her contract is easy to follow, and reasonable. I drove to her salon for my hair trial, which I highly recommend. I had an idea of how I wanted my hair styled but wasn’t 100% sure what I wanted. Marissa helped me work through the ideas and created a beautiful style! Before the wedding she helped create a day-of schedule. On the day of the wedding she was on time and ready to go; she even had time to touch up curls as needed. Marissa was super patient and made sure my hair was just how I wanted it. My hair style stayed perfect all day/night. She was a joy to have in our bridal suite the morning of. I was very happy with my experience with Marissa and would highly recommend her as a hair stylist!

  • Team of 7
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Ankeny, IA for additional fees

Working in the wedding industry for over 10 years as a bridal makeup artist I specialize in Natural & Soft Glam wedding makeup thus being preferred by brides looking for classy, timeless and natural looks and being awarded many different certificates and accolades throughout the years.

I cannot express enough how incredible my experience was with Cristal as my hair and makeup artist for my wedding. From the very first interaction, she was amazing at communicating and made me feel completely at ease. I gave her free rein on my makeup, with only the guidelines of creating a romantic look that would highlight my features, and she absolutely nailed it. I shared a few pictures of my dress with her, and she not only helped me decide on the perfect hairstyle but also executed it flawlessly. The entire process felt so natural and enjoyable, almost as if we had been friends for a long time. On my wedding day, she truly felt like part of the family, and her presence added so much warmth and joy to the occasion. If you're looking for a talented, kind, and genuinely caring hair and makeup artist, look no further than Cristal. She has a remarkable gift for making you look and feel your absolute best on your special day. Thank you, Cristal, for making my wedding day so magical and memorable!

Salon De’Bleu 

5.0

  • Starts at $95
  • Serves Ankeny, IA

A professional salon owner & stylist for 11 years, I have used hair as my canvas, bringing a distinctive aesthetic & fresh approach to draw out each client’s unique beauty. Hair is my art & I love the process of transforming someone from start to finish.I understood from an early age that hair is not just an accessory; that great hair is the key to feeling beautiful. Mastering skills in wedding styling, It’s my personal goal to continue to grow & excel in my craft and to ultimately share with my clients all I've learned & can achieve for them. I love hair & feel incredibly blessed that I’ve found a career that resonates with me so perfectly.

Solon De'Bleu's Brittany provided hair services for my wedding in June, 2016. She did an amazing job - doing my hair AND my 6 bridesmaid's hair by herself the morning of our wedding. Everyone looked fabulous and she gave everyone the unique style that they asked for. It was a 90 degree day, with no air-conditioning and our hair held all day. Brittany took away so much stress for me on the big day by being so easy to work with and professional.
