My past experiences with getting my hair/makeup done professionally hasn’t been great. I have extremely thing hair, and have always been anxious over that. My hair stylist Ash was up to the challenge! She made me feel so incredibly beautiful—more so than I think I may have ever felt. She was patient and always willing to give her honest opinion. And most importantly—she never gave up on my hair. It looked stunning and I can’t thank her enough.
Krista did my makeup and she was fabulous! She clearly is a seasoned veteran of the makeup worls
D. She did my makeup quickly and provided all over coverage to conceal my freckles without it looking like I was a ghost!!
I loved every minute of my time working with Ave 42. They are not cheap—but I think with great artistry there comes a price. You truly do get what you paid for. Thank you all so much!!!

Best I could have asked for
Noelle and Kara (and the whole team at Ave 42) were absolutely wonderful to work with. They did an amazing job day of, but what was most impressive to me was the lead up. I had multiple trials in the salon and I was always made to feel special/valued. I was not stressed at all before my wedding because I knew I was in the best possible hands. The whole team at the salon is so talented and friendly, I’ll be a client for life and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

If you're on the fence, book them!
I was a bridesmaid in a wedding where the bride booked Ave 42, and so they were literally the second vendor I booked after our venue because I knew they'd make my bridal party look and feel amazing on the big day. (Seriously, if you're considering them book them early because they are popular for a reason!) Chloe, Noelle and Kara absolutely crushed it. They arrived on time, made everyone feel at ease, and even finished a bit early so they were able to give some last minute touch ups. My hair and makeup were flawless, and my whole bridal party said they felt beautiful, too.
