The makeup artist truly has a gift for enhancing natural beauty. My makeup was absolutely flawless; I received compliments all night long! It felt great to look in the mirror and see a version of myself that radiated confidence and joy. Not only did I love my look, but my wedding party also looked stunning. Each member of the party had their makeup done to perfection, tailored beautifully to their individual styles.

Salon De’Bleu 

5.0

  • Starts at $95
  • Serves Portsmouth, 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.

“I have known Brittany for a long, long time and was thrilled to have her style my hair for my wedding. She is super professional, creative, and experienced. She will work with your vision to come up with a unique style that complements you and your wedding vibe in the best ways. My absolute favorite part was not having to worry AT ALL about how my hair would turn out. During the trial, she will make sure you absolutely love you hair before sending you home. It was such a relief to leave knowing what to expect on the wedding day and that we were both prepared. There are plenty of other things to be stressed about leading up to your wedding but Brit has you covered in the hair department. I recommend her 10/10!”
