Hey Ya'll

Christine Here, Welcome! A little bit about me, I was born in Georgia, moved to Maine when I was 11 and have been here ever since. I love integrating my Southern Style with my Northern ways in all aspects of life. I reside in beautiful Southern Maine with my awesome husband, a daughter and son (both under 3), and a little dog named Homer. I am a true lover of animals and would have a house full if I could! Discovering the beauty world has forever changed my life and led me to this amazing career!

I've been a licesnsed cosmetologist working in the beauty industry for over 10 years now! The wedding world is one of my favorite parts of this industry and I love using hair and makeup to empower and embrace your beauty for any occassion. I am always learning new techniques, products, and ways to perfect my craft. I truly enjoy all of the relationships I have made and love being a part in your event.

Hope to hear from you soon!

XOXO,

Christine

10/10 Recommend!

Christine was absolutely amazing! She handled myself and 11 other women on her own and I was never pressed for time! Everyone's hair came out stunning! They each requested their own styles and Christine nailed it each time! I was a nervous wreck on my wedding day and her calm demeanor really made me feel relaxed. She was professional, kind and a pleasure to be around! I could not be happier with the way my hair turned out and would definitely recommend her to anyone who asks! I should also point out that my hair stayed in place throughout the entire day and late into the night! Thank you Christine, for your help making my wedding day perfect!

Couldn't have asked for a better hair/makeup stylist!

Christine was amazing. She was quick to respond and so easy to work with. She was able to work with a variety of different types of hair and she did an amazing job with makeup as well! This was my mother's first time getting her hair and makeup professionally done and she made her feel so special. I felt like such a beautiful bride and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to do both hair and makeup! I cannot thank you enough for your accommodation and kindness. You have the ability to really elevate an already special day and you did just that, so thank you!

Amazing hair and makeup!

Christine and Ashley at Big Day Beauty were phenomenal to work with. They were easy going and flexible and were so accommodating to last minute changes and additions. They worked efficiently without sacrificing quality and were able to do every hair and makeup style requested. All of my bridesmaids also appreciated that for both hair and makeup each bridesmaid was able to go look at their hair/makeup and let Christine and Ashley know if they wanted any adjustments before they wrapped up. Christine and Ashley are so sweet and made the getting ready process so much fun, and everyone gelt beautiful with looks that lasted all day. My hair even made it through a windy ceremony without budging!

Highly, highly recommend!

Christine from Big Day Beauty is AMAZING. She did a phenomenal job for me and my bridal party - several of my bridesmaids commented that they had never had such a great experience getting their hair professionally done. I was so happy with the hair and make up that Christine did for me - I felt completely like myself in the very best way. She did my make up exactly as I asked (I wanted to look natural, just a bit more elevated, and she nailed it) and she did WONDERS with my super thin hair. Not to mention, she was incredibly efficient! She drove up to our venue (an hour from her salon), arrived early, and finished everyone well ahead of schedule. Highly, highly recommend!!

Beyond thankful to have chosen Big Day Beauty

I am so beyond happy I went with Big Day Beauty for my wedding day. Chrissy Libby did 9 different hair-dos between 7am and noon; each one coming out flawless, while Ashely did makeup that came out absolutely stunning. They were extremely nice, patient, flexible, professional and overall the best experience I could've asked for me and my girls to have. I couldn't have imagined using anyone else for that day!!

Amazing Wedding Hair and Make-Up!

I highly recommend Big Day Beauty for bridal and bridesmaids hair and make-up!! I did numerous trials with other professionals in the area, and Big Day Beauty gave me that natural yet elegant look I was going for. The day of, Christine looked at a couple of inspiration photos and created beautiful up-dos and curled styles for all of my bridesmaids that lasted through a humid summer day/night. My bridal updo was exactly how I described and did not move the entire day. Ashely did a fantastic job on everyone’s make-up, including the mother of the bride. She prepped our skin before applying products and all of our make-up lasted through the after party. Both Christine and Ashley listened to our hair and skin insecurities and ensured that we all felt confident and beautiful with how we looked. We had a great time getting ready with them and it was clear that they are very passionate about what they do!

Christine is a wonderful hair and make-up artist in Maine's wedding industry. I have worked with her for a wedding on a rainy day, and the hair and makeup that she did withstood hours in the rain and looked impeccable. No running mascara, flat hair or anything. She is professional, organized, and she really cares about the work that she does.
