Awesome wedding day hair!

Ariella did my wedding day hair styling, and absolutely nailed it! She worked with my inspiration photos and some pins I wanted to incorporate, and achieved the look I was going for perfectly. She asked lots of questions while she was working to make sure I was happy with every detail. My hair also does not curl easily, but the curls she made stayed put for my entire wedding day, through photos, dancing, and the after party. I highly recommend her and Avenue 42 for wedding hair!

Hair was perfect and stayed all night!

I couldn't have asked for a better hair stylist! From the hair trial to the day of, Jahna did the most incredible job with everybody's hair. She was so calming and cheerful, which made a huge difference as I got a bit nervous the morning of the wedding. She even did a hair trial with my mom, who was unsure about getting her hair done -- needless to say, she loved her hairdo options and was so happy she went. My bridesmaids all were obsessed with their hair and all of ours stayed all night! I felt like such a princess and it was in large part thanks to Avenue 42!

Best hair and makeup team!!

Avenue 42 is amazing- Becky the makeup artist knows how to make you feel glammed up and beautiful and made all my bridesmaids look Stunning as well! Jane did hair and blew us away from our expectations - seeing as me and most of my bridesmaids have naturally curly thick hair- she really did a great job! I would recommend their team to anyone getting married or for any special occasion!
