Noelle is awesome! She clearly cares a lot about her business / customer service, and was very quick and generous in correcting a couple of minor hiccups that came up during our hair/makeup trial process. She was a pleasure to work with and I loved how my bridal hair/makeup came out! My friends were happy with the other hair and makeup artists who she worked with on the day as well.

Alexis was absolutely amazing!! She was our hair and makeup artist for my wedding this Saturday and when I say she KILLED it!! Aside from her AMAZING hair and makeup skills… We had a few bumps in the road so my mom and I weren’t able to make it to the venue until after my scheduled time for both hair and makeup. As you can imagine, I was definitely panicking about our ceremony starting in less than two hours from the time of my arrival. When I finally made it, I felt SO much better as I realized that Alexis made sure that all of my bridesmaids were on track as far as hair and makeup while I was gone. She completed my hair and makeup beautifully with time to spare for my mom’s hair and makeup. She even managed to squeeze in another makeup service for one of my guests. I will definitely be recommending her to anyone that I know who may be needing a hair or makeup service. She is absolutely amazing at what she does and she is so SO sweet!! I could not thank her enough for everything she helped with the morning of our wedding

Aubrey and Christina were absolutely wonderful for me and my bridesmaids. I did a bridal hair and makeup trial as well as hair and makeup on the day. A few bridesmaids got their hair and/or makeup done. We were looking for someone who could do a more natural look as me and my girls are not everyday makeup-wearers so we wanted someone who could make us comfortable in wedding makeup. After a bridal trial with a bit of a heavy bridal makeup look, Aubrey was able to completely pivot and change my look based on feedback from the trial. I could not have been more happy with my makeup or hair on the day of! She was able to do a unique look for each of the girls that was in tune with their own features and style. Both women were very fun and peppy, making getting ready such a great experience. They both had wonderful attitudes and really listened to what we wanted. I would definitely recommend them!

I found Crystal through my wedding planner. I wanted to hire a small business where I could talk to the actual person who was going to be doing my hair and make up. Crystal was great, she was quick to respond and was very specific on what information she wanted to know. She asks many questions to make sure you will have a great relationship. I really appreciate her questionnaires to make sure we would be compatible and for her to really understand your vision. Your wedding is important and the HOURS you spend getting ready really sets the stage for the day. Crystal created a great timeline, the timeline worked perfectly, my hair and make-up began and ended on time and her assistant was amazing with my family and bridal party. I felt like Crystal was my friend and knew the ins and outs of what needed that day. She is not just there for your hair and make-up she is there to make sure you feel like the bride and everyone else knows you are the bride- its your day, its your money and you deserve to have a stress free morning. Crystal and I had many back and forth emails as I live in Arizona and got married in Detroit Michigan. She was willing to schedule my hair and make up trial while I was home in the summer - this lined up perfectly with my photographers to do our “engagement” shoot on the same day. My trial was great, she made sure she looked through all my photos and chose what would work best for my skin/face and personal preferences. If there was something I wasn’t sure about she was honest in her suggestions. After the trial my hair and make up had a real test. While doing our photoshoot there was a HUGE storm- rain sideways, trees and trash flying through the air and intense wind. My hair and make up help up exceptionally. I was fully confident after this trial run everything would be great for a Michigan wedding. We did our make up at the Ren Cen- the front desk was not helpful in setting things up but Crystal was prepared for that and had great communication to make sure we knew where she was and when to grab her to make sure she got up to the room. She brought each person a personal bag with their make up in it and I had an attendant stay with me through the reception. This was a great option. It helped having someone there to fix any make up after I balled on my first look, someone there to give me water during photos, someone there to fix/add more lip stick and assistance in putting my gigantic veil on before the ceremony. There was even a fly that got into my veil and thankfully with an extra set of hands we were able to avoid a freak out ! Crystal is understanding, honest and specific. I really appreciate all those things and I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

I love creating beautiful, custom wedding henna! From intricate, elaborate bridal mehndi designs to speedy, satisfying designs for guests, I love it all. I have studied Indian, North African, and Middle Eastern henna design in depth, and am happy to create designs in a broad range of strictly traditional styles, or to combine traditional patterns with more individualized, unique elements for a customized henna experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'd first met Heather at a Rhode Island PrideFest, and instantly saw how much talent she had. Every piece she did looked amazing, her precision was immaculate. I went to her several times over the years, and when my now wife and I began planning our wedding, I brought up the idea of having wedding henna done. My wife agreed, and I knew immediately that I needed to contact Heather. We met up with her at a nearby farm where she was holding a henna event, and she sat with us discussing what we would like done for the wedding for probably a half-hour or so. She sketched design ideas out, which we loved, and made a contract right then and there. Our wedding henna was stunning. We received so many compliments on it that night, and repeatedly after as it lasted beautifully for quite some time. We still get comments if someone sees wedding photos. Throughout the entire process, Heather was a dream to work with. Very kind and professional, she is exactly the caring presence a stressed bride-to-be needs.
