Hire them immediately!

Sarah is one of the most incredible make-up artists (and people) I’ve ever had a chance to work with. Blush and Braids Beauty Bar (stylist Sarah) did my hair and makeup for my engagement photos as well as my makeup and all of my bridesmaids’ makeup for our wedding day. Everyone’s makeup turned out fabulous and lasted for photos all afternoon, the ceremony, and dancing all night! I am so happy looking at the way my makeup turned out in photos—it was EXACTLY how I wanted it. I cannot recommend this team enough. Additionally, Sarah was such a fun and calming energy on the big day—the girls all said how much she fit right into the fun of the day.

Highly Recommend!!

Blush and Braids was so great for my wedding day! I worked with Lerin for makeup and Jenn for hair, and they were both excellent!! They both listened to what I wanted and brought my vision to life. My bridesmaids also felt so happy and beautiful! My hair and makeup lasted all day long – I really didn't have to do any touch-ups either. The Blush and Braids team was so wonderful – I highly recommend them to everyone!! A HUGE thank you to both Lerin & Jenn!!

August 2024 Wedding!

Kayla B. booked through Blush and Braids Beauty Bar (Tacoma & Seattle) was absolutely amazing! From the start, she was so fun and made me feel so comfortable at my wedding hair trial. It was like sitting down chatting with a friend the entire time! The trial was so beautiful and I scheduled a follow up with her for a trim a few weeks later to get ready for my wedding day. I had not had a hair cut in a very long time but I absolutely trusted her and my hair felt so healthy!
On the wedding day, Kayla was again so great to work with and she made me and my bridesmaids feel so beautiful! I changed up my wedding hair vision a few days before and Kayla and Blush and Braids Beauty Bar were able to accommodate and communicate to each other about those changes. My wedding hair was so incredible and I got emotional when it was completed when I looked in the mirror. That was such a special moment for me because I truly felt like the most beautiful bride. I can’t thank Kayla enough for that moment and being such a genuine person. She truly cares about her clients and puts in that effort but somehow makes it look effortless! I highly recommend Kayla and Blush and Braid Beauty for your wedding!
