Highly recommend!

I used Evolve Salon for hair and makeup services at my wedding earlier this month and would highly recommend Katlyn and her team of stylists. My maid of honor, mother-in-law, and I all had hair and makeup, while the rest of my bridal party just had makeup. My hope was for a natural yet elegant look, which Katlyn and Stephanie absolutely achieved. It rained on my wedding day, with some of our photos taken outside during a light drizzle, and my hair and makeup remained perfect throughout. Katlyn is also so kind and professional! I would absolutely hire her again!

Loved my bridal make up

Katlyn and her team are so wonderful and kind. They did an amazing job for my bridal hair/makeup and all of my bridesmaids! I felt so taken care of with Katlyn. I really wanted to feel & look like myself on my wedding day and she helped me achieve that. I highly recommend Evolve for all brides in the Carmel area!

Would hire 10x over if given the chance

I would hire Katlyn and her team again in a heartbeat, I’m beyond thankful that I trusted her with my wedding. Every single person that had their hair and/or makeup done couldn't stop raving about it and I thought they all looked absolutely stunning.

As the bride, I've never felt more beautiful in my life. Katlyn is an absolute artist and a master of her craft. My hair and makeup were absolutely flawless and exactly what I envisioned just off of a few corrections/suggestions from my trial and I am floored.

At our trial I provided photos of what I thought I wanted for my wedding look and although done beautifully, didn’t feel fully me or what I thought would make me feel like a bride which made me anxious. We discussed it in person before I left and she gave great suggestions, I provided feedback and just trusted Katlyn and I’m so glad I did because my day of look was beyond what I could have imagined.

Katlyn is the absolute best and I could not speak more highly of her and her team- all true professionals who make you feel comfortable in their chair and confident when you leave.

Thank you for making me truly feel like a bride ❤️

High quality seamless experience

Katlyn and her crew were so nice to work with and did such an incredible job on our hair and makeup. My photographer was shocked that we finished ahead of schedule! Couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out.

Amazing! Kaitlyn was so sweet and gave me my dream hair and make up for my big day!

Myself and my 7 bridesmaids plus my mom all got our hair done! Kaitlyn and all her stylists were so sweet and talented! I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. 100% recommend contacting Kaitlyn for your big day! She does not disappoint! Make-up even lasted through pouring rain for my engagement shoot!

Fantastic Hair and Makeup for Carmel Wedding

Katlyn and Salma from Evolve Salon provided hair and makeup services for my Carmel by the Sea wedding. They were on time and had everyone looking absolutely fabulous (3 women for hair/make up, a flower girl with flower crown, and myself the bride). I would highly recommend if you are planning a wedding in the area!

Beautiful hair and makeup that stayed the whole night!

Katlyn and her team worked their magic for the hair and makeup for my wedding in July! Katlyn was super kind and accommodating when scheduling my hair and makeup trial, and did her best to make sure I looked how I wanted to for my wedding! On the day of, her and her team were able to complete a variety of looks including my wavy half-up look, all four bridesmaids with twisted messy low buns, big beach waves for my sister in law, and voluminous half-up looks for the moms, with a more natural/soft glam makeup look! They were kind and patient when asked for minor changes. It all looked gorgeous in person and on camera! Not only did our hair and makeup look beautiful, but it stayed for the whole night! I am not kidding you, our hair and makeup DID NOT MOVE even after sweating and dancing until midnight! My sister in law and I still talk about asking them about the hairspray that they use because my hair notoriously does not hold curls very well, and my waves stayed all night without feeling crunchy. Katlyn and her team did wonderful work, and I am so happy to have found them!

Carmel brides book evolve salon!

If you are looking for a salon that does it all, look no further, Evolve Salon was one of my favorite aspects about my wedding. Katlyn was super flexible with my tight schedule as an out-of-town bride. She did a FANTASTIC job with my hair and makeup. She was able to take Pinterest photos and replicate them flawlessly. I also transitioned into a second look halfway through the day, so she met me at the reception space and helped freshen up my hair and makeup before going into the rest of the night. I cannot recommend Evolve Salon more. I will always return to this Salon whenever I am in town.
