From the moment I did the hair and makeup trial up to my wedding day Loran, and Lauren have been easy to work with. They show they really care about you, not just by making the bride feel comfortable on the special day but also the other people that will be receiving the service. They were on time and very professional. Everyone was very happy with their hair and makeup . It also lasted a very long time and everyone got many compliments. I couldn't have been happier with who I chose to make me feel. You will not be disappointed !

I absolutely loved working with Danny at Fine Line Artistry for my makeup, and Lia for my hair! I was looking for a hair and makeup artist that had the skill you would get for editorial, but still was able to work with me to make sure I looked like an elevated, bridal version of myself, and Danny was it! He is such a kind and warm person, was so communicative throughout the entire process, and really helped me figure out what I wanted my hair and makeup to look like. The trail I did with him and Lia before my wedding day was basically almost perfect to begin with, despite the fact that I came in with a vague idea of what I wanted and a couple of inspo photos that I struggled to explain. On the wedding day, Danny and Lia came to our hotel room and were incredibly fast and professional, in addition to doing an absolutely amazing job and working with very different hair and makeup styles between the bridal party. I essentially didn’t sleep the night before because I was so excited, but you couldn’t tell at all in photos because they did such a phenomenal job! Plus, the makeup and hair stayed incredibly well all night for me and my bridesmaids. Fine Line Artistry is an amazing place to get your hair and makeup for your wedding in Boston!

One of the best decisions I made for my wedding day was signing JW Artistry! I’m so pleased I had Erica, Jessica, and Marissa do my hair and make up as well as my five bridesmaids, mom, and godmother. I’m not one that wears makeup often and my skin is very sensitive, but Jessica did an incredible job making sure I was comfortable, the makeup was not heavy, and the look was exactly what I was going for. She was also extremely meticulous and accommodating during my trial! Jessica is clearly very talented, and knows exactly what she’s doing. I loved my makeup for the wedding day! It looked so natural, but enhanced my features perfectly. Now in terms of Janna and Angela, I am so grateful to both of them and how organized and responsible they are with running their business. They were so communicative, gave me updates, answered all my questions, and showed a lot of integrity throughout the whole process to make sure that I was feeling confident about my artists, my timeline, and my experience. Truly so professional and trustworthy. And finally, Erica, who was hands down one of the shining stars of my entire wedding day. I’m still in disbelief with Erica‘s devotion to my group. She really went above and beyond on the day. From keeping our flower girl busy and making sure she doesn’t touch the tools to helping my mom find her lost phone to staying till the very last minute to make sure I didn’t need any additional touchups to walk me through every step of her doing my hair to literally spending several minutes with a single individual hair and making sure it wasn’t in the way…I could not be more grateful. My jaw literally dropped when she showed me the picture of the back of my hairstyle. She also saved the day when I got a floral piece for my mother that had a white ribbon that needed to be concealed and Erica masterfully covered it up so that mom did end up wearing it on the day. My girls loved their hair and makeup too. The artists did fantastic with mature skin. And guests were stunned with how gorgeous everyone looked. I know a thing or two about makeup and Jessica is very much in the know about certain products, techniques, and trendy looks. From hydrogrip primers to ABH palettes, she knows her stuff. Also, one of my bridesmaids is a hair dresser and she was also very impressed. In fact, one bridesmaid had really short hair and Marissa nailed it somehow! Working with the length and creating a gorgeous look. She also pulled out that Fenty bronzer because she ain’t playinnn. Every artist was on time, professional, ready to go with plenty of high-quality tools and products. So grateful for this team!

Nicole is incredible. Not only is she super talented, but she is a professional! I was in Rhode Island for a friends wedding, and had booked Nicole for my own in September. I needed to schedule a trial with her, and last minute, she offered to come to my hotel room and do the trial right then and there! Within 24 hours, she confirmed my trial for my own wedding and was at my hotel room ready to rock. She was accommodating and listened to all my feedback. She even asked me if there was anything I would change. After giving her feedback, she went in and made the makeup and hair perfect. I felt Gorgeous, glamorous and just beautiful. She took notes of the specifics for my day and told me what products she recommended I buy - like the lip combo she used. The fact that she got me ready and did my trial for my friends wedding was just unbelievable. I cannot recommend Nicole enough. If you’re unsure about booking a makeup artist or hair stylist, I’m telling you- Nicole is it. She is fun, light hearted and personable and really put me at ease. I cant Wait till September when she does my makeup for MY wedding! She’s the best!

We had such an amazing day in Newport, RI getting ready in the Belle Mer bridal suite with Kaydee and Liz. Both ladies were AMAZING and made my bridesmaids and I all look our best for the wedding. For my wedding look I wanted a half-up, halfdown look with natural make-up (but not too natural, if you know what I mean) - and Kaydee absoluetly nailed it. I couldn't have been happier with how everything went.

My wedding day was picture perfect, but my face and hair were just that PICTURE PERFECT! I danced all night for 4 hours straight both my make up and hair didn’t budge an inch. Even after baking in the sun for the ceremony my face was flawless. The lipstick stayed on through eating and drinking. I was so beautiful in every photo I took that night no filter needed. Thank you so much

Girl Talk Beauty Bar

With over a decade of experience in the beauty industry, I am a passionate makeup artist based in Newport, RI. I thrive on building connections with my clients, understanding their needs, and creating looks that enhance their natural beauty. My mission is to make everyone who sits in my chair feel confident and beautiful while delivering a flawless application that they can trust.

Dustyn was wonderful to work with from the first email to the final payment. She listened to my wants/hopes for my wedding make-up and asked questions back to ensure she really grasped what I was looking for. We had a successful trial where we were able to make adjustments together that both captured the look I wanted, but also what was going to photograph well and last for the entire day. I would say my wedding make-up was bullet proof. I got married on a hot summer day in August and it looked the exact same at 11am as it did at 11pm. Dustyn is fun, easy going and will make the getting ready part of your day a blast. Her pricing is super competitive and she allowed my bridesmaids to customize their look which was important to me as I wanted everyone to feel their best on my wedding day. I have and will continue to recommend her to family and friends for their wedding days!

I met Krystal for my hair and makeup trial 8 months before my wedding and knew instantly that I was going to love her. She made me feel safe, confident, and beautiful that day and I knew I wanted her to do my hair and makeup the day of my wedding. On the day of my wedding, Krystal was the first person in the door and ready to go with everything. She helped everyone figure out what kind of look they wanted for the day and used colors and tones to compliment each woman. When she finished with my hair and makeup, my jaw hit the floor. I’m not a makeup person and never do anything with my hair other than put it up in a ponytail. I could not stop looking at myself because Krystal made me feel my most beautiful on my wedding day. I will be forever grateful to Krystal for everything she did for me that day and making me feel confident.

Nicole is truly a master of her craft. I have very oily skin and previous make up trials with other make up artists resulted in the make up fading within two hours. Nicole did an amazing job and my make up lasted for 10 hours. I was glowing! She’s also really fun to work with. I would highly recommend her to any bride.

I am so thankful to have booked Salon Beautopia for my wedding day hair and makeup! We had quite a large bridal party (7 for hair and 8 for makeup) and Jess and Taylor worked quickly and seamlessly. They traveled to our Airbnb in Portsmouth, RI and arrived early to set everything up. It was so stress free for all of us - we started around 7:30am and were done by 2:30pm which was perfect for our first look/pictures timeline. They paid such close attention to detail and listened to each and every one of my bridesmaid's, mom's, and mother in law's thoughts on what they wanted and executed accordingly. 3 Jess and Taylor were so fun and professional to be around and we had the best morning hanging out with them! They were also incredibly helpful leading up to our wedding day and provided valuable insight on timing and all of the little things you don't always think of. (How to put the veil in my hair to ensure it stayed put, reminding me to have the bridesmaids bring inspiration pics to keep things on track, and to ensure everyone showed up with clean dry hair.) Thank you Salon Beautopia for the best wedding day glam! 3
