  • The most gorgeous I have ever felt!

    I HIGHLY recommend using BBBB for your beauty services. As a bride who doesn't typically wear makeup and has naturally curly/wavy hair, my priority for hair/makeup services was finding a place who would make me look and feel beautiful and confident, but still like myself. The BBBB team KNOCKED it out of the park. Amy (makeup), Milian (hair) and Brenda (hair/makeup) were so kind and professional while doing hair/makeup for myself, my mother, my two grandmothers, my mother-in-law, and my two maids-of-honor. They kept us on schedule, but were flexible when someone was running behind or needed to take a break. Their energy was fun, warm, and relaxing, which helped to really set the tone for the day. Everyone was saying how the morning of the wedding felt almost like a spa experience – it was that relaxing! We all looked beautiful, seriously. And we all felt like *ourselves*, which was a top priority for us. I remarked to my husband that I felt the most beautiful I have ever felt in my life on my wedding day – and I don't know if I'll ever feel more gorgeous! So much of that is attributed to the hair and makeup services I received from BBBB. I felt so confident heading into our wedding day. Not once did I feel preoccupied about my appearance, because the artists crushed it. Thank you BBBB crew for making such a special, cherished day all the more magical.

    We had an amazing experience working with Blush and Braids Beauty Bar for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. We worked closely with Sara, the owner, to book and coordinate, and she made the entire process so smooth and stress-free. The team she put together for us was nothing short of fantastic! On the morning of our wedding, Hung and Yoce handled hair, while Brenda and Giselle did makeup for our group of 12 ladies. They were absolute pros, working efficiently without sacrificing any attention to detail. Everyone who was glammed up that morning was thrilled with how they looked, and we received so many compliments throughout the day on the beautiful job they did. Each artist brought their own expertise and creativity to the table, and it showed in the final results—every style was flawless, and everyone felt so confident and beautiful. We are so grateful to the Blush and Braids team for helping us look and feel our best on such a special day. If you're looking for a team that’s professional, talented, and a joy to work with, we highly recommend Blush and Braids Beauty Bar!

    I could not recommend Blush and Braids more highly! They were on time, very kind to work with, and did INCREDIBLE work with my bridal services and for all my bridesmaids. My curls and extensions lasted all night throughout dancing and warm temps, and I got tons of compliments on my makeup even through the afterparty. I highly recommend them!

  • Amazing!!!

    Blush And Braids Beauty Bar provided amazing beauty services for my wedding day. Their communication was consistently fast, convenient, and kind during the planning process, making me feel at ease. On the big day, they made me look and feel like a princess! Their work was simply effortless yet yielded high quality results that had me and my guests raving. I felt pampered and fabulous thanks to their attention to detail. Overall, I cannot recommend Blush and Braids highly enough for brides seeking a stress-free beauty experience with professionals who deliver exceptional work and unmatched customer service.
