I had an amazing experience with Blushing Bride Glam for my wedding day hair and makeup. Communication with Maddie was excellent - she was always very responsive, friendly, and clear in our messages leading up to the big day. Since I had a destination wedding, we weren't able to do a hair/makeup trial beforehand but that didn't end up being an issue at all. Maddie was a total pro and made me and my bridesmaids feel relaxed and beautiful. She kept everything fun and calm while working her magic. The final look for all of us honestly exceeded my expectations - everything was sheer perfection down to the smallest details. Maddie is so talented and really cares about each client. I couldn't recommend Blushing Bride Glam highly enough for any bride's most special day!

Working with Jordan and Sam was a DREAM. I am someone who gets nervous having their hair and makeup professionally done and working with AfterGlo studio had me totally at ease. Myself and everyone else who had their hair and makeup done were very happy with the end product! My skin didn’t look cakey at all and they both nailed the look I was going for. Not only are Jordan and Sam extremely talented, they are also kind and accommodating people. It was so nice sitting and chatting with both of them for my trial and on my wedding day. When I sat down in Jordan’s chair to get my makeup done, it felt like catching up with an old friend. If I didn’t live on the other side of Michigan, I would DEFINITELY want to be friends with them. They truly are nice, talented people and I am so happy I booked them. They were definitely my favorite vendor to have and work with for our wedding.

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.

In addition to providing modern, top-of-the-line makeup service, The Makeup Loft also offers Special event hairstyling, Cosmetic Color Consultation, and Makeup Lessons covering all spectrums of beautification.

They were so amazing!!! I loved my hair (done by Allie) and makeup (done by Jayln) that they did for the wedding. They listened exactly to what I was looking for and were able to do it even better than I imagined! My bridesmaids and both mothers also loved their hair and the ones who got their makeup done were so happy. I had a big bridal party and they were able to get everyone done and do touch ups no problem. They were great working with me during my trials as well and were so great about letting me to a redo when my makeup wasn't quite what I wanted the first time. Jayln really was amazing, she was able to take a vague description of what I wanted my makeup to look like and made it a reality. They helped me set up my skin to look great on my wedding day and highly suggest doing facials with them a few months before to have THE BEST skin. They also helped me find products that would work with my skin that also wouldn't break the bank. They really invest in giving you the best look on your most perfect day. 10 out of 10 recommend them!!!!

Crystal Drake Artistry were the best hair team I could possibly imagine working with during our wedding weekend!!! As soon as I met Crystal during our trial and watched her nail all 3 of my looks, I knew she was the perfect fit for me. Throughout the process, she was timely, organized, and so accommodating to all the last minute changes in the timeline. During a chaotic Indian wedding weekend, Crystal had the BEST attitude and brought so much ease when I was sitting in her chair (which was probably close to 5 hours total). She truly goes above and beyond and clearly cares about her brides - for example, giving me ice packs when my knuckles were sore from all the bangle changes :), helping with mid-ceremony outfit changes, etc. Most importantly, Crystal’s skillset is exceptional as she was able to create the perfect South Indian braid that I envisioned. She is well-experienced in all the accessories Indian brides wear and made the day-of process seamless. Her looks for our moms were also spot on! I cannot recommend Crystal enough, especially for any South Asian brides!!!

Of all the vendors I booked for my wedding, this was one of the most difficult for me to pick because I don’t wear makeup and had no clue where to start. Gals and Ghouls was amazing from start to finish, I would recommend them to anybody. They allow trials before you book so you know the service you’re going to get! Worked with me to find a plan for beautiful makeup while I still felt comfy like myself. Inclusive services, and such a welcoming and friendly attitude from all the artists. They even worked with me when I needed to add on a few services for my bridal party at the last minute, no hassle. I felt like a million dollars all day long. The makeup lasted all night for the wedding and also on my bachelorette night when we did the trial. Thank you for making me feel so beautiful on my special day!!

My name is Ronda, a professionally trained hairdresser that has recently relocated to Michigan. I’m a wife, mom and dog-mama. When I’m not in the Midwest, my husband and I spend a few months out of the year in the Caribbean on the beautiful island of Antigua (“wink wink” to all my destination brides!). In my free time, I love traveling, going to the beach with our Frenchie named “Tigua” and sipping a spicy margarita. My mission is to continue to create beautiful looks for my Brides, share my knowledge with other aspiring hairdressers, and hopefully inspire others to manifest their biggest dreams.

Awarded Best of Zola
Do yourself a favor and hire Ronda for all your wedding hair needs! Ronda executed my vision perfectly and exceeded my expectations - which is hard to do for a Type A, perfectionist like me! Ronda spent so much time during my hair trial making sure we tried all the different variations of the “low bun”, so I had full confidence in my style going into the wedding day. She even gave me guidance on what to tell my hair colorist so that my highlights were perfect for the style. Ronda absolutely slayed my rehearsal “party pony” and I received so many compliments! She was meticulous in making sure every part of my hairdo was perfect for both the rehearsal and wedding day. I’ve never felt more beautiful in my life than on my wedding weekend and Ronda was a huge reason for that.

I am incredibly passionate about what I do as a Makeup Artist. Making Women feel beautiful is truly my purpose and my passion! It will always be all about your transformation for me. Let me be the one to get you ready and enhance your look just because or for a special event!

Samantha was so great to work with from the second I reached out to her. I was unsure about hiring a makeup artist at first because I am extremely particular, and quite frankly wasn’t in my wedding budget. But after seeing pictures of her work, I was shocked at how flawless she her clients look. I was hooked and had to try. But upon deciding, she was very patient with all my questions, concerns, and my most favorite thing was she was not the slightest bit pushy when I told her I wanted to think about it. Her professionalism and patience was superb and her talent is perfection through and through! She listened to exactly what I wanted, I even spoke up about a slightly different look and she was very receptive and didn’t try to sway me otherwise. And I was very pleased with the outcome! She takes her time which I believe is important, and I had several compliments on my makeup for both my engagement photos and wedding day. I plan on booking her for a few upcoming events next year, and looking forward to working with her again! Do yourself the favor and schedule a consultation with her! I promise you will not be disappointed!
