I can’t speak highly enough about Alaina. From booking to the wedding day, she was phenomenal. She started with a questionnaire to discuss my vision, skincare, and what makeup I currently the use. The trial was so much FUN and she took everything I said into consideration. Come the wedding day, she made all of my bridesmaids feel so comfortable. I had girls who like heavy makeup, girls who like minimal, and everything in between. She accommodated everyone’s needs and my friends have never looked more beautiful! As for my makeup, my skin has never looked so flawless! All night everyone commented on my makeup, saying it was pristine. It lasted all through the night. Photos, dinner, and TONS of dancing, everything stayed perfectly. She even gave us little touch up kits and straws so we wouldn’t mess up our lips. Thank you, Alaina, for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day!

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!

Caroline did a phenomenal job with my wedding hair and was everything I could have hoped for in a hairstylist! From the start, she was incredibly personable and made the morning so much fun for me and my bridesmaids. Despite having a big bridal party of nine, she was timely and efficient, making sure each of us felt beautiful without ever feeling rushed. When it came to my bridal hair, she brought my vision to life perfectly—it was everything I dreamed of and more! Not only is she insanely talented, but she’s also a total girl’s girl. She came prepared with a bag full of things we didn’t even know we’d need throughout the day, making her a lifesaver in so many ways. Her professionalism, fun personality, and attention to detail truly set her apart. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to be part of my wedding morning and would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!

Rose did my hair and our bridal party's hair and did an excellent job! We did a hair preview a few weeks prior and she remembered exactly what I wanted. She also remembered some of the issues we had with the style at the preview and modified it to make it work best for the day. She brought extra bobby pins and hairspray and showed up perfectly on time (in fact she was a little early!). She was great and I highly recommend her! Adorn Salon did a great job coordinating the hair service. The stylist I was originally paired with was unexpectedly unable to work, but they were honest and worked quickly to ensure that they found a replacement.

Let’s chat! I love chatting…it’s totally my favorite! I’m Kristin Mastrangelo, (go head, try it out…it’s easier than it looks), a makeup & hair artist who specializes in wedding, special event, & television artistry, spending most of my time trying to think of PC ways to avoid putting on “real” pants. I’m a wife of 15 years & momster of 4. Obsessed with heavy metal, tea, all black everything, horror movies all the time, a creature of the night. I hate being late. Personally, I believe everyone should be at least a little weird...normal is a setting on a dryer...so embrace you, be different, and do what you want.

If I could give more stars I would! Kristin was such a treat to work with. Not only does she do an AMAZING job with makeup, she is honestly such a sweet person. She made the day even more special and I was honored to have her a part of it. She was kind and sweet and open to ideas. Everyone in my family loved her. Makeup wise, she is awesome! My makeup stayed on all day! We got married in Luray Caverns and took photos by the willow trees, it was hot but the makeup stayed on and still looked amazing. If you need a makeup artist for your big day, Kristin is your girl! Thanks so much for being a part of my day!

Meredith was incredible! I got married in Leicster NC and had Meredith come from SC to do mine and my bridesmaids hair and makeup. Her prices were very fair and definitely worth paying the extra for her to travel. She was so sweet and made me feel like an actual princess on my wedding day. What really sets her apart from others is that she focuses on the experience she provides and not just the results. On a day that is very chaotic Meredith was such a calming presence. She also made sure that everyone felt beautiful and was more than willing to change anything anyone didn't like. I cannot recommend her enough she is beyond talented and over all a very genuine and kind person!

I am an admirer of makeup and hair, with little experience lol. I really just shared my vision with Nina and she let me know what I needed! They completely over delivered on quality of work and customer service!! I also highly recommend their hair extension rental. So easy and the extensions really amplified my hairstyle. By the way!

Hello beautiful soon to be brides. I’m Abreeá and I’m co-owner of Hue Hair Lounge Knox.! I’ve been a hair and makeup artist for 10 years. I specialize in blonding/color, extensions, makeup and bridal styling. I like to offer my brides the complete package. You will have the perfect hair color, perfect makeup and perfect style so everything starts out perfect for your big day! I have found having one team to do it all is less stressful and more cost effective, but i also tailor our packages to every brides needs.! We can’t wait to work with you!

Abreea has been doing my hair and make-up for events for years and I could not recommend someone more. To have a hair stylist who listens, improvises, changes, communicates well, and supports your decisions is such an incredible thing to have, at least in a woman's life! My hair as I'm sure as many others, is their life line and Abreea has never failed once in giving it just that, life. The talent she holds over not just hair but make-up to is incomparable to any other. I have had many length changes, hair colors, and not so healthy hair that Abreea has worked every bit of her magic on. This is someone I highly recommend to anyone needing any amount of change in their life. Not only does Abreea have the hairstylist skills of a goddess, her touch on make-up is no less. I knew that I would not want any other person doing my make-up on my wedding day. Because of her I felt the most beautiful I could have possibly been. Not being a huge make-up wearer, I was always hesitant but Abreea knew exactly how to match my skin tone, eyes, and what worked with my face. This was the biggest day of my life and she made it so much more than that. Again, the most incredible work I have had done by someone and I could not ask for a better experience each and every time I see her!

Quanisha always loved makeup, and as a child, to hone her skills her mother would allow her to practice on her during her evening naps. However, after graduating from makeup school with a makeup artistry certificate, she was disappointed to see makeup looks created without the personalization of the client's character and personal style. So, in 2018, attended Gwynnis Mosby Makeup Training center located in Tucker, GA soon after, Quanisha began her makeup artistry freelancing business called Quanisha Moody Makeup Artistry.

Quanisha’s skills are unmatched, I was the Maid of Honor for our wedding party and she went above and beyond for our big day. The bride, myself, and our mother received exactly what we each asked for; from simple light makeup to full glam. Quanisha and her husband were so kind and funny; she came very well prepared with printouts of our inspiration photos and asking us simple questions throughout the process to assure we received our desired looks! I couldn’t recommend Quanisha more for weddings or any other events you are considering a professional makeup artist for. Thank you again!!!
