Beautiful service

I had such a good experience having Christy do my bridal hair and makeup. She really helped to calm my nerves and to trust in her. I ended up doing two trials with her, because I was really unsure of what I wanted. She even came to me to do my trial! She walked me through the whole process and encouraged me that the final look would be smoother on the day of because she would use more product. I liked that I did not need to have a minimum service count in order to book her. My wedding day was pretty hot, but my makeup and hair lasted through the whole event- there was even some drizzling at the end of our reception, but it all stayed! This picture was taken in drizzle. My makeup felt lightweight, like I wasn't wearing anything. My sister, who does not wear makeup, said the same thing. I would definitely recommend using Christy!

Perfection!

Christy was absolutely wonderful to work with and did a phenomenal job with my hair and makeup (as well as my MIL's hair + makeup and mom's makeup) on the day of my wedding! I have very fine hair and struggle to style it on my own, so was initially nervous that I'd be able to achieve the look I was hoping for (a pretty traditional low updo) but Christy reassured me that she would absolutely be able to achieve the look I was hoping for and did not disappoint. Christy was very communicative and friendly throughout the entire process, and I felt completely at ease and relaxed because I knew she was going to do a great job. Absolutely recommend doing the trial hair + makeup with her as well - that was a great opportunity for her to see how my hair styled and me to give thoughts/feedback on what I liked/didn't like before the big day.

Incredible!

Christy was wonderful to work with! She made it so easy from the beginning. I'm not a person that wears a ton of makeup and wasn't 100% sure what I wanted, AND on top of that, I live out of state so I wasn't able to do an in-person trial appointment. But Christy and I did a virtual meeting to talk about my ideas, and she made me feel at ease. She also came prepared with lots of different foundation shades which worked out well as me and my bridal party vary pretty widely in our skin tones. I was SO happy with how my makeup turned out - everything stayed put and I felt beautiful all evening!!!

Christy styled my hair and did my make-up (Elizabeth, violist from Chesapeake Strings) for our Chesapeake Strings photo shoot, and I could not be happier with how everything turned out. Christy offered to travel to wherever I was, but I ended up meeting her at her house as it was on my way to our shoot. I emailed her a couple pictures of the style I wanted the day before our appointment, and she was able to replicate the style perfectly with my hair. Keep in mind, we didn't do a trial appointment so I was especially impressed that everything turned out the way I had hoped the very first time! I would definitely recommend Christy as she is flexible with scheduling and travel, a stellar stylist, and a genuinely kind person!
