Marissa is a wonderful human being and a fantastic hair stylist. She made me feel so comfortable during the entire process, and I cried at the end of my hair trial because I loved it so much. She was also willing to help me out when my mother in law decided to get her hair done a week before the wedding, which I really appreciated! Everyone (my bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother in law) loved how Marissa styled their hair for the wedding. She was so easy to communicate with!! Book her, you will not regret it!

I have had Michelle do my hair for 3 years so when it came time for my wedding hair, I knew exactly who to call. Michelle asked me what I was wanting my updo to look like in a consultation and got to work with my hair in a practice session. She nailed my hair just how I wanted it and when it came to the big day I had so much confidence in her abilities to make it look flawless. Michelle knew exactly how long it would take for her to do my hair and my bridesmaids, so the day flowed together very well. My hair held together all day which is huge for me considering it's very thick heavy hair. I recommend adding Michelle to your wedding day and any other day if you're looking for a supportive, knowledgeable, magic worker!

Sarah Tjaden did our hair for my wedding! She was absolutely amazing! She always responded back to me pretty much right away (even if I sent her a message or inquiry at random hours of the day or on the weekend). I was indecisive about how I wanted my hair so on the day of my wedding I completely changed it compared to how we did it at my trial. She looked at my inspo pic and did my hair the exact way and it turned out perfect, better than I imagined! She has the best attitude and positive energy! She’s the person you want with you, laughing and singing along to your pre wedding playlist helping you get ready and look amazing on your big day! 100% recommend!

On the day of the wedding, Mattie gave me a detailed timeline to keep me on track, and her calming presence helped me feel relaxed and confident as I walked down the aisle.
