"Every time one of our bride's uses Michelle, we know that their hair is going to beautiful. We love that when our brides are posing for us, they aren't even concerned, "does my hair look ok?" They know they look fab! Plus, they look just as radiant at the end of the wedding, as they did at the house/hotel. "
"I have known Michelle a long time and she has always done a great job with hair and make-up! I feel that Michelle and her staff will give you the attention you deserve on your wedding day! It is the most important day you should have your hair and make-up done by someone who is passionate about making you look beautiful on your big day!"

Michelle and Rosalie were the best!!! They literally saveD my day! About 1 month before my wedding, I had a 2nd hair trial done by another salon. Let's just say, it was a horrible experience. This review is about Pink Comb Salon so I won't waste my words or time on the other salon in this review. Anyway, one month before my wedding I gave Michelle a call and she took me in for a trial right away. She did my hair and make up and it blew the trials I had with the other salon out of the water. I booked my day with Michelle and Rosalie. They were the best. My mom had her hair and makeup done and 3 of my 4 bridesmaids as well. Everyone was completely satisfied with the job they did. They also set up breakfast for us that morning. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect start to my day. We had a blast and they made all of us, including my sometimes hard to please mom, feel so at home and relaxed! No complaints whatsoever. It sprinkled rain on my wedding day, but my hair held up to it's fullest!!!!! Michelle is so organized and I appreciated working with her. I can't say one negative thing! Michelle and Rosalie......THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF MY SPECIAL DAY AND DOING AN OUTSTANDING JOB ON EVERYONE INVOLVED!!!!!!! IT WAS THE BEST AND I WILL NEVER FORGET IT. MICHELLE....YOU ARE MY HERO!!! :) Keep up the good work and making brides feel as special as you made me feel on my day!!!!!! KUDOS KUDOS KUDOS!!!!!

Michelle, Angela, and Marena were just perfect for me, my bridesmaids and the MOB and MOG! I was your typical nervous bride, worrying that Michelle would get lost or show up at the wrong house (my cousin had this happen to her!). To my pleasant surprise, Michelle showed up early on the morning of my wedding and everything went smoothly from there. My trial was great, so I was confident I was going to look beautiful and Michelle did a wonderful job. My bridesmaids were each extremely happy with the way their hair and make up came out. My one bridesmaid had no idea what she wanted to do and Marena created an updo on the spot. She looked gorgeous! Michelle spent extra time with my Mom making sure she gave her the exact look she wanted. Not only did these ladies make everyone look beautiful they were also courteous and polite as they were in parent's home. The best part was I looked just as great at the end of the night as I did during the day. The make-up and hair stayed put! Brides, rest easy about your hair and make-up. Book Michelle and you have nothing to worry about!

Michelle did an AMAZING job the day of my wedding. She was on-time, flexible and soooo enjoyable to be around. I felt like a princess and didn't once worry about my make-up running or my hair falling flat. I would highly recommend Michelle! A+++!

Michelle (and Rosalie) did a fantastic job on the hair for 10 people for my August wedding. It was amazing how quickly they were able to get that many people looking their best. I went for a trial with Michelle about a month before my wedding, and while she did a great job recreating the look from the picture I brought it, I just didn't like the way it looked on me. I decided to go for something a little more natural, and wear my hair down with soft curls. Michelle assured me that she would be able to give me the look I want, and the day of my wedding, my hair turned out gorgeous and natural. Even after sleeping on the curls, everything still looked great the morning after! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Michelle to anyone.

Michelle is amazing!!!!!!! She is super sweet, super talented, and made myself and all my girls look fabulous the day of the wedding. I was very fortunate to have been able to have her provide hair services the day of the wedding for 1 bride, 9 bridesmaids and 2 flower girls. All the girls hair looked great and lasted all night long. My hair was exactely what I wanted and at 3:00am, when I started taking out my bobby pins, it looked the way it did when she did it that morning. Michelle was super fast with returning phone calls and emails. Everything went very smoothy and I couldn't have been happier. Great job, Michelle, thank you for making myself and my girls feel so beautiful!!!!

Michelle was amazing! Before my wedding, I went to her for a hair and makeup trial. While it looked great, I changed my mind on the look I wanted, and went back in for a second trial. She really took the time to listen to what I wanted, and stayed true to what I had asked.

On the afternoon of my wedding, she and Rosalie arrived at my hotel on time and got right into gear! They not only did my hair and airbrush makeup, but also makeup for one of my bridesmaids, 4 bridesmaids updos, the flowergirl's hair, my mother's hair and makeup, and my grandmother's hair. Each girl chose their own look, and they carried out their requests perfectly. EVERYONE was ecstatic with the results, and looked flawless all night long.

She's sweet, professional, and fun. Definitely the type of personality you'd want around on your wedding day; and since she's young, she fit right in with me and my girls.

Some hair & makeup artists make you look over-done. The best part of Michelle's work was that I still looked like me, just a bit more glamorous!

I have very thick, difficult hair, so I was a bit worried about finding someone to create my perfect wedding look. When I came across Michelle's website and read reviews, I realized that she would be perfect. I booked her before doing a trial and was very happy that I did. I happy with the trial that I did with her and only had her make a few small changes for the big day. She happily made those changes and I LOVED my hair for my wedding! I got so many compliments on it and it felt great all day and night. Michelle and Marena also provided hair services for my mother and 6 of my bridesmaids, all looked beautiful!

I also go to Michelle for my hair cuts and she did my highlights before the wedding. She is a great stylist and I highly recommend her!

Michelle and her staff are excellent! I was fortunate enough to be in a bridal party where Michelle and her staff came to do our hair. Michelle is always very professional, polite, and a pleasure to be with. She was able to do more than 5 different hair styles on different girls within an extremely reasonable amount of time and each one came out great and tailored to each girl's preference.

I would definitely recommend the PinkComb for Weddings.

I recently used Michelle for my Wedding and she was FABULOUS. She and her sister came to me to do myself and my bridal party and a few extra people for hair. I have to say they were amazing and did a great job with everyone. I cannot tell you how many compliments we all got on our hair. The best part of Michelle was how she worked with my 4 year old niece who we all thought was going to be so difficult to deal with and Michelle worked magic on her getting her involved in every step from the magic curling iron to the pretty comb my niece just sat there (well sort of), but for Michelle to be able to invlove her in the process was key and my niece loved every minute of it.

I highly recommed Michelle and her team to anyone! They are truely amazing and will work with you on anything. I have shorter length hair and Michelle made it look like my hair was so long!

Thanks Michelle for such an AWESOME job!

Michelle did my hair for both my wedding and my sister's wedding, and I could not be happier. All of the girls loved their hair- instead of doing the traditional (and boring) updo-with-tendrils, she made sure that each girl had a gorgeous unique style. I loved my sister's hair (kind of half-up with sort of a 1940s Old Hollywood Glamour look) almost as much as I loved my half-up style with curls down my back. My husband (avidly watching from over my shoulder) insists that she was worth every penny.

Michelle traveled (in snow!) to my hotel room, and was there on time. She did 8 girls (one bride, six bridesmaids, and one step-mother-of-the-bride) in record time, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. It was almost like a brunch party! My hair lasted from 10am until that night when I reluctantly disassembled it after/during a bath. It survived the removal of my veil just fine, and always looked great and never stiff. When I had my hair trial, I slept in it and my hair still looked good the next day! I hope that I have an excuse to go back to Michelle in the future. Highest recommendation!

(Quick note: she has the most adorably pink salon! It's like stepping into cotton candy, but in a good way. :)

Michelle is wonderful. My bridal party and I used her for hair and make-up and I was not disappointed. Our hair was fantastic and lasted all night. Our make-up was amazing and it photographed so well. She is truly very talented and makes you feel so beautiful on a special day. Michelle was always very responsive to my questions. The day of our wedding she was on-time and even took extra time working with one of my fussy BMs (she has never had anyone touch her hair or make-up -- she hasn't even had her hair cut in 3 years, aside from her own personal trim job). Michelle handled it all with such professionalism and even offered little make-up tips along the way. Soooooo worth the $$!

Michelle is amazing and extremely talented! I got married in an area I was unfamiliar with and I had a hard time finding a salon I could trust, so I was thrilled to find Michelle for my wedding day hair. I showed her several pictures at my hair trial and she was able to transform me into the exact bride I wanted to be! She did my hair, my mom's and 5 bridesmaids the day of my wedding. Everyone was thrilled with the results. Her sweet and bubbly personality were a welcome bonus to her talent and she was a joy to work with on my wedding day. I highly reccommend Michelle!

Michelle came highly recommended to me by my wedding planner Jenny Orsini of Pampered Bride. I knew without a doubt that I was going to work with Michelle during our first meeting which was for my trial. I showed her pictures of what I would like and she took it to another level by providing her input and showed me a couple of options.

Michelle and her assistant Alana did a great job with my hair and my bridal party. Everyone commented on how great all of our hair looked. They are fun, personable and professional women. I've continued going to Michelle for my hair maintenance and hi-lites.

It's been 4 months since my wedding and I am still thinking about how Michelle Lo Conte saved my day. I hired Michelle to do all of the makeup for my wedding but hired someone else to do my hair. 2 hours of trying to do my hair and a burn from a curling iron later- I realized my mistake. Lucky for me, Michelle was able to step in and fix my hair. Not only that but she did it in 10 min!!!
Everyone at the wedding loved my hair and makeup. Michelle made me feel beautiful and truly saved my day!!
